"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.

Can you imagine a music video like this being made in today's climate?


Or how about a movie with these type of scenes:

In today's climate, one would say that these people would need to see a shrink, lol! What is crazy today was normal a few decades ago.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Those are some damn glorious harmonies in that Huey Lewis song. Sh1t would never be made today either.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Let’s fix this thread:

I'm not sure if this beats Selena's video:


But it might be a close second.

However, back on topic of 80s music videos......

Here is a wierd 80s music video:


This has 249M views, which is rather high for an 80s music video. Do not see that this was "propped" up by any recent movies or TV-show referrencing that music.

This Kate Bush music video "Running Up The Hill" is also an 80s music video, but it was propped up by Stranger Things episode 4 as being integral to the plot story-line (ie and delivering a major punch the way in which it was delivered):

If this music video was not propped up by Stranger Things, it would likely still be sitting at 20 Million views or even less. Look at her other song Cloudbusting. It was only referenced in one episode on Handmaid's Tale (2019 - season 3, episode 11), and near the end of the movie Palm Springs (2020)

Just the first part where he kicks away the gay guy...even before he hires the blonde bombshell would be enough to create outrage nowadays.

 

"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.

Two live crew broke down a lot of doors in the industry a lot of glam bands owe them a debt of gratitude .
