"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.

So, I'm not sure how many of the old crew are still kicking around these parts and considering I'm now 31 yrs old, I will probably be posting in the Mature Man's forum, but I just had to drop in to say hi to all the legacy DJs kicking around.

I am splitting up with my live-in girl after almost 4 years of great fun and gonna brush up on my skills around here and hopefully help out some of the young dudes.

Bittersweet that the LTR is done, cuz she's great and hot as hell, but I'm feeling like getting back out and having some single man's fun.

Any old guys that remember me, around?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Actually I remember you. I'm not a bigtime poster, but I've been around here for years.

Welcome back. It's nice to see some of the oldheads checking in.

Hey Ice,

good to see ya.

Gonna be a weird transition and it's been a bit painful but cool in the long run. I'm having problems wrapping my head around the concept of being single.

I'm "domesticated" for lack of a better word.

Even though we broke up on good terms and we're both cool with it (well, as good as we can be. These things are never easy), it's hard after living with a best friend/girlfriend for so long to suddenly try and switch gears and really look at other chicks without the boundaries of an exclusive relationship.

I'll be a good month or two getting back on my feet, game-wise, but I've learned a lot about relationships and can definitely lend an ear to anyone looking for or struggling with an LTR...

I'm not into the PUA b.s.... that sh!t is too one dimensional, for me, now. Did it for a while but it lost its charm.
