"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.

In the last week I've totally rewamped my style. I'm now going for a permanent intelligent/scruffy look with a 5'a clock shadow.

Now for those who have that scruffy look, how do you guys maintain your beard so it looks like a 5'a clock shadow all the time?

"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.

On my electric razor there's a little flip up attachment for trimming sideburns, beards, mustaches, or whatever the hell else you grow on your face. I find if I use it on my entire face it leaves a nice prickly scruff. I'm now clean shavin' but I find it works very well and doesn't irritate.

Ouch how can you use that thing for the rest of your face? I can just picture my face getting all raw and red using that.

I saw a beard trimmer in Sears whose packaging stated that there is a special attachment for just such a purpose. Can't remember the brand name, but you'll probably find it because the statement is very clear.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

it depends on how fast your hair grows, trying shaving at night instead of the morning.

I go with the grain when I shave. Leaves some stubble.
