"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.

The last hobby i picked up was photography and it worked out great. I taught myself through articles online, videos, etc. Eventually this turned into paid gigs and I do occasional work for people.
My problem is learning the piano seems a lot more in depth than photography was. Maybe I need to spend more time with it admittedly, or possibly i'm looking in the wrong direction. I don't have time to take private lessons, so online is my only resource. I also travel a lot for work with a 5th wheel so a keyboard is my only option. I want a keyboard that can somewhat mimic the feel of a real piano. What avenue should I take in learning the keyboard and what is a good beginner keyboard(price is no issue).
 

"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.

Developing my skills in the hobby of my choice is important to me. I indulge in my hobbies and try to become as best as i can to my ability. If at some point i feel the need lessons will be necessary, I will take that step if my job allows. For now private lessons are simply not an option.
I will search some more and see what i can find. I was looking into the 88 key digital pianos.
I'm also not sure if i should just go ahead and buy a digital piano or if i should keep trying to learn music theory and reading music before i make a purchase.
