"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.

Knowing what you know now do you still want to get married

"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.

I won't say id never marry again. But in order to do so there would need to be a minimum 10 year relationship with near perfect conditions that i dont think are possible with any American woman anymore. Be more likely to happen if i moved to a foreign country, met her there, and kept her there. Once a foreign woman hits American soil her marriage value starts ticking down, like the dollar value of a car when you drive it off the lot.

No way in hell I'm ever getting married. I can't stand the thought of being tied down and I prefer living alone. Marriage is too financially dangerous for men now. General rule, if you put your signature on a mortgage while single DON'T GET MARRIED. You don't want to lose your home or pay child support/alimony to some b1tch who one day decides to up and leave.

I would probably still get married with a prenup but I'm not sure. What I doubt is meeting someone worthy of such an imbalanced situation especially once you have kids regardless of the prenup. I really can't trust my own judgment anymore because if you guys knew some of the women I had considered marrying you would flip your ****.
We can't marry or LTR based on the very STRONGEST ATTRACTION. There should be attraction, but that person has to prove to be loyal, supportive and have an ability to put your needs first and that of the relationship. You want someone who will take care of you if you couldn't work. And there is plenty of red flags that indicate selfishness or out for self that would let you know.
