"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 Backbreaker shares some things, and Karma comes here and makes fun... reeeeaaaaal nice, clearly you need to go back to the high school forum Karma.
 

"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 think backbreaker takes this place a little too seriously.. lol feelings hurt? Quit posting? How about stop talking like a b!tch. He's probably going to hyphenate his name when he gets married and take his womans name.

how do you remove a cousin?
and are you from tennessee? if your answer is yes, i believe it is legal for you to marry your own cousin there.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

Yes. I am also MAcAvoy, your mom, your EX BPD that you jerk off to every night, and your ugly girlfriend.

There's only enough room in this place for one of me.

BackBreaker is more and more coming off as a bit weird. I like the guy and usually his posts are somewhat concise and have a point.

This isn't one of them.

Thumper, if you want to pick a scab, I'd find someone a bit less dependent on little bullsh!t green dots.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

You're right. I should turn off the reputation feature in my profile and use that as an excuse to be a complete d!ck to everybody, driving off the few valuable members that this site has left. That would make me cool :cool:

The effect is even better in person. Speaking of which, we need to get some cigars sometime.

Did he hurt your feelings too? Why don't you cry about it and say you will never post again.
 

"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.

Epiphany: Why don't we gather up a whole bunch of men in a single forum, and choose a forum subject that deals very much with manly ways of being a man and doing manly things to women.
Manly Men [citation needed] then have lots of arguments on this forum.
Who could have seen this coming?

And no, I won't reply to any of your replies (if any) to this.

Yes we do.

A good whiskey and a smoke would certainly hit the spot.

You should apologize right now. You hurt backbreakers feelings.
