"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.

We were just done eating at this Thai restaurant when I noticed this pretty attractive waitress there. I'm pretty sure the other fellas were eyeing her too. Well, we started recieving our bills and then I told the fellas that I was gonna hit on her. I let the other guys pay first so I'll be close to last. I got to her finally and then...

Her: You're paying cash?
Me: Yea

*she turns around to finish up the other credit cards ahead of me. I then proceed to look at her arse. She then turns back towards me.

Me: (I looked into her eyes) Hey... (a few seconds pause)... If I give you the rest of the change, will you give me your number?
Her: (she smiles and then shakes her head)... I'm close to 30. I'm too old for you.
Me: *shrug*

She turns around and continues to get change for others. I ended up going to another person to get my exact change.

Oh well! Even though I crashed and burned, I feel ALOT better now. I'm slowly feeling my confidence level going up again.

So here's my questions guys: What would you say to someone who uses that line?
 

"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.

"Not sure if you can handle a young buck like me?"

Well that might be too c0cky in any place other than a nightclub.

But you'll want to say something that takes her down a few notches. It'll separate you from the rest.

That's funny!

Though, the phone number for money is kind of bad !

I woulda asked some other way, perhaps broke the ice with a compliment before askin her number. Either way, good job on askin her out! ;)

I woulda responded somethin like,

Oh, I'm legal!

Hardly girl! were both in our prime!

Yeah, but its always easier to think of witty crap afterwards, isnt it! :p

I love older chicks. I'm 22, and I prefer women that are atleast like 24 or 25.

Never been with a woman thats 30ish. I'd love to, though if shes lookin good ! =)

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Geeze swampwiz, did you graduate from the Mary-kay Latourneau school of dating or something?

More power to you, I guess.

Yeah . . . but at what point does that chicken become ****in' expired?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I'm sure that you offering to pay for her phone number with spare change had something to do with her dissing you. I don't blame her either, that was pretty bad. However you could have retorted "You look great for your age, I wouldn't mind."

Now THAT'S a neg-hit...

Hahahah great lines guys. I'll keep those in mind when I encounter something like that again.

As for the spare change thing, I had a $20. That was more then just the typical tip. *shrug*I know I know guys. It was still pretty lame of me... I couldn't think of anything during the time!

"Yeah, maybe you're right....I wouldn't want you to do your hip when we get physical"
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
