"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.

Long Nails?

I stopped biting my nails after eight years recently, and they have grown to be quite long, and they are pearly white (and opaque).

I like my long nails a lot, but others seemed to have mixed reactions (I like them because NO ONE else has long nails.... clean ones anyway).


Some urge me to clip them, some tell me they are REALLY nice, and one said they are cool and... "vampiric".



So... in a general female perspective.

Are my almost feminine hands unappealing?

Or would they frighten small children?
 

"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.

Long nails for a guy are most definatley feminine. Whenver I see a guy with nails even a little long, like were talking millimeters, I think fruity. Keep biting them and keep them short.

I don't know, I usually bite mine when they get noticable to me (and that'd be 3-4 mm).

As for my feetnails, it goes 4-5mm before I'll use my fingernails to rip them off (it works!)

Having no nail = bad, or why would we have them.
At the same time, if you got a big nail, that's kind of creepy.

Don't get into biting, just farking clip them!

If you keep biting a girl is going to notice one of two things... ask them if you don't believe me... I already have.

One) They'll notice your lack of personal hygiene. "A guy who is too lazy to cut his nails... hmmm?"

Two) They'll notice your feminine hands. All women love a man with masculine hands.

Well that goes unsaid that you aren't goth or a secluded artist/

Not really, I bite effectively and all my nails are the same length. Right now they are not past 1mm. I could care less if they asked, because I don't lack in Personal Hygiene when I'm clean-shaven, my hair smells good and I don't wear dirty clothes ;)
 

"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.

There are people who can control how they bite their nails... it's better to just stay away though...

One bad bite and you tear the skin on the side of you nail and it comes out cracked and irritated.

I am guilty of biting my nails from month ot month.

Dante3214!!

From this point forward, I shall no long bite my nails

I wear a lot of black (in a good way, yes that's possible), and it generally fits my style.

And my skin is a very light tone (I've worked on getting tan), so it seems to work for me more than it would others.

The contrast is alluring to me, and I like that kind of thing on a woman.

I'll ask some random girls about it tomorrow at school...



And I'll never bite my nails again! Lol ...

UGH! This thread apalls me! Long nails on a man are feminine and/or gnarly-lookin'. The reasoning behind this is that long nails mean that you don't do any hands-on labor. This is good for a chick 'cause it means she's attractive to men. Just like short hair, short nails enable better combat ability and better tool manipulation.

Who else has long nails? Wizards and vampires. Unless you're trying to attract chicks into the occult, I'd stay away from it. The general population just sees it as lazy grooming.

Biting your nails and RIPPING OFF your toenails is just plain nasty and disturbing. If you bite your nails, then you get all these gnarly ragged edges and once again, it looks sloppy. Just get a freakin' pair of fingernail clippers. It takes much less time than sitting there and gnawing on your nails and you can achieve a clean, even cut. Most clippers also have a metal file that lets you put on the finishing touches.

Please take care of your nails if you want chicks as its one of the things women observe and use to "read into" a man.
 

"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.
