"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.

"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.

"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.

modern judo wont give you a good ground game. it will teach you how to throw though.WORKEROUTER said:Judo is great. More practical would be wrestling and no gi jiu-jitsu.
judo is much more applicable in real life than in mma like bjj is much less aplicable in real life than it is in mma.
the bjj thing was visible on the drunk fight in the ultimate fighter last season where the guy pulled an armbar and just got his head spiked against the concrete. mats make bjj more applicable than it really is.
same with modern judo. being thrown onto a mat doesnt hurt that badly. being judo thrown onto concrete can kill you.
the mats in the ufc also make striking less applicable than it is in real life. theyre really squishy and hard to balance on. not to mention they get very slippery. so its hard to get leverage for your kicks and punches. in real life on concrete, its not. in real life a striker and wrestler/ judoka > bjj even though bjj > judoka/ wrestler and striker in mma.
