STR8UP, I'm gonna need that party address to confirm this thread is on the "up and up".![]()
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.

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
actually they are feeling things and tasting things and being talked into spending lots of money so leave your wallet in your glovebox dude.Originally posted by STR8UP
Oh yea, I'll bet they will get wet just thinking about you pervs jerking off to the picture of them dressed in lingerie holding butt plugs and pocket rockets.
I think I'll stick to the 'trying to mate with the wild and beautiful creatures' plan.
Can I choose a female assistant? Actually, I have no idea what 'where' is.....care to elaborate?Originally posted by penkitten
if you are asked to go to the bathroom with a spoonful of something weird and put it you know where, try it because it is fun!
I can see it now....Originally posted by penkitten
i need a new magic bullet, one of the children took mine and it was brand new from one of these parties.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
If this sounds boring to you, you might want to check and see if your 'equipment' is still intact.Originally posted by Warlord
Sounds boring.
Maybe if it were a party with guys selling anal torture devices this chucklehead would be interested?Originally posted by Warlord

I'm sure it won't compare to a good Japanese meal and the company of some interesting new friends, but I'll make the best of itOriginally posted by KarmaSutra
STR8UP, Brother have a great time.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
Kinda like how it's only acceptable for women to be into bisexuality?Originally posted by Rollo Tomassi
Just for the record, I should add that only women can get away with sex toy parties.
I'll second that!When a woman masturbates (with or without a toy) it's the sexiest thing in the world;
I couldn't agree more.Originally posted by STR8UP

Well done STR8, you get a B+. You'd have gotten an A if you'd F-closed the coochie girl, but a good effort nontheless.
