The worst lies we tell are the ones we tell ourselves.You are condescending.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

Damn, this is too good of a burn to be ignored. I tip my hat to you sir.That you actually are on this forum to be helped

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
In that Seinfeld episode, George asks Elaine to switch with her, and she doesn't want the male masseuse either. Ironically, if I remember the episode correctly, they go to the masseuse because they convince a dentist to write them a prescription for one, so that their insurance picks up the cost.I know women that wouldn't take a male masseuse or pedicure guy.
It looks like everyone else thinks it is. You are trying to put me into some sort of caricature so people can make fun of me.Wasn't meant as a burn, just an honest answer to his question.
When I did pedicures in the past, I only have got them done by women. The whole point is to get it done by the oppostie sex.I know women that wouldn't take a male masseuse or pedicure guy.
You made yourself a caricature by starting this thread if we are being honest.It looks like everyone else thinks it is. You are trying to put me into some sort of caricature so people can make fun of me.
That's what that is about and your reply has been about to this thread.
Now that everyone has had their cheap-shot worthless laughs to feel better about themselves (ie like they would need to do that if they are doing so well with the ladies). Lets continue with the regular scheduled discussion of this thread.

He just confirmed that he is not in this forum to get help, without actually saying it. SMH.Where is the insult? If the shoe fits wear it.
