"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.

Hey fellas, I know this sounds corney but I think its a really good idea; I was wondering if you all could give me some ideas of different away messages to put up on my aim while im away from my work desk at night to arouse curiosity (and even interest in the form of jealousy!) For all the girls Im dating that I have on my buddy list to see and arouse curiosity and interest enough to IM me when im gone, or even create a competition atmosphere between them to ask me out on a date.

Any ideas welcome or examples
 

"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 out to lunch with Amy then going to watch movie with Sarah, dinner with Jennifer, Cafe with Monica, visiting Nicole, Michelle coming over, Veronica helping out with the food, and then dinner with Angela.
 

"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.

Dunno guys. Lot of people around me seem to be trying real hard to make their E-personalities shine with avtars and smartass away/normal status messages. To the point where I think just having the default message is cool.

Personally, i'd rather be a smartass in real life.

Women can smell BS a mile away. If you are really going out on dates with all these women I don't think you have to broadcast it. Women can smell a man who is desired by other women. Try being genuine and you might just attract a genuine woman.... using the default AWAY message should do just fine when you are away... just my 2 cents...
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I think you need to get away from your computer for a while.

It's called "Calling attention" - Girls do this, not guys.

very true. but if ur desperate for an away message:

I'm not here right now, so cry me a river, build me a bridge, and GET OVER IT.

Leave me a message and ill get back to you, leave me a sexy message and ill get back to you sooner

Too often we lose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles to frown, BUT, only takes 4 muscles to *****-slap that little **** upside the head. Pass it on

Hey, %n, can you do me a favor?
O.K. Follow these steps:
1. Look at your buddy list
2. Look at my screen name on your buddy list
Tell me, do you see the little yellow notepad by my name?
Yea?
Well, guess what it means... it means I'm not here, dumbass.

just a few that i use alot, though they are meant for my friends. I dont really care about the chicks n being funny, i got enuf in my profiel.

"out" is the best away message, what happened to trying to be a mystery???? If you've put your moves on a girl, and she sees "out" on your away message... she'll wonder, there's no need to spell every thing out.

You really should be focusing on other things. Having said that, I have several away messages. I even use one for when I'm taking a dump. Here it is:

"Yo, I'm taking a sh!t and there's nothing worse than someone trying to talk to you through the door when you're sh!tting. Don't bother me!"

For real.

The one I always use when I'm out doing whatever is:

"Out and about with Satan, the perfect gentleman."
