"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

If You Were Really Good At Making Money With Something...

...but it was something that you would not be comfortable talking about with your friends or family.

Well, I am good at something of that sort. It involves the Internet and selling somethings. I am good at it, and I did very well with it over the summer and past few months. Made a few grand a month with very little work. But then I decided to give it up because after a while I got tired of lying about how I make money. So I thought I would pursue something that I could tell other people about more easily. Something not so immoral.

Now that I'm trying to think of ways to go about doing this more "appropriate" money-making, my heart just isn't in it. I'm really good at making money in other ways that most people would find disgusting.

Do you think I should keep doing what I'm good at? Because the thing I'm afraid of is if I become really successful, I'll be known for that thing, and it may not be good for my future interviews, etc. In a way I feel like, well, someone has to do those deeds, so what - but then again, why did I have to be so good at it?

Have you guys ever been good at anything that you would rather not talk to about with other people? How did you deal with it?

Thanks for any advice.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Hey man, as long as it puts food on the table and is not totally illegal, then there is nothing to be ashamed of. This summer I'm going to venture into the pr0n industry as I have found a great concept that noone has yet used. Nothing to be ashamed of.

So... running around the neighborhood in a rabbit suit while filming yourself humping inanimate objects for live streaming video has become a moral dilemma huh? Good to know you came to your senses...

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

I know a girl who sold stunk up socks on the internet for $35.00 a pair,dirty panties $50.00.. She would post a pic of her back in her high school days and say she was 16. She was actually 19 at that time..That was back before they started really scoping in on perverts online.

She was selling them so fast she would use some stinky cheese to put in socks. I don't know what she did to dirty the panties, but she said she made an average of $10,000 grand a month from home. She would go into chat rooms and pull out all sorts of pervs who thought they were really talking to a teen girl. real weirdos out there.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
