"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.

It just doesn't make sense!

It just seems thait it ruin your health and costs a lot of money. So out of curiousity what is the point?

Smoking can start from peer pressure, stress, thinking it makes you look cool.

In general, smoking does add a bit to the bad boy image, so there's a positive. Now don't all jump on me at once here, that's just one positive amidst about a thousand negatives. I'm aware of that.

It can also be a crutch to help you talk to women when smoking. For instance, if you go outside somewhere for a smoke and someone's smoking there as well, it is a little easier to open the conversation due to the fact that you're both smokers.

Aside from those and maybe a few other little positives, smoking is a shytty habit. Don't start if you don't already smoke.

Smoking is like eating chocolate. Its bad for you, but enjoyable enough to keep doing it.

I don't smoke cigarettes, but I enjoy cigars from time to time. Cigars you usually do not inhale, and most people smoke less of them than cigarettes. But its still not good for you.
 

"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.

Except that chocolate doesn't make you smell like ****, make your teeth yellow, or kill you.

Yes it does. In fact, it does all 3 things very well.

Except that chocolate isn't in fact bad for you, and nothing like smoking.

Other than that they're the same.
