"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.

I saw my ex-wife today and she looks very pregnant. I have not been informed about this change coming in my child's life. I'm only guessing that she's hoping people will see it as gaining weight. I've been guessing that she was pregnant for a while, but it's become pretty evident now.

We have a child together, and she's most definitely not the world's greatest parent. She has a lot of trouble with our child's behavior when he's at her place (I generally have no trouble). My guess is it's only going to get worse with a new baby in the picture.

Has anybody had this happen? I'm really messed up with thoughts as to what's going to happen after this baby is born.
 

"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.

I saw a similar case however the problem was not so much the mother but her new boyfriend and his preference.
Is she a single mom or she has a man?

She's still with the guy she fvcked while we were married, but I have no clue if this child would actually be his or not. If she fvcked around on me, she'll fvck around on him.

I have no clue what your ex-wife is like. All I know is my whole life has pretty much been a hell because of my mother and I blame my father for not saving me from my mother when I was a child.

Anything you can do to use that against her, such as full custody of your child? And I wouldn't let her or her bf come close to my child if that ever happened to me.

Same thing happening / happened to me.
Same behavior patterns with my son too.

I have him full time now and ... saved his life.
If your child is 12 or over, usually a court of law will let him choose.
How old is your son?

my theory is that the with the new baby she will concentrate less on your son .... and she will be broke..... so if you have to fight for something in court, take advantage of the oppurtunity of being able to afford a better attorney if it comes to that.
however, my hope is that she will become a better parent to your son no matter if she has a new baby or not... because he deserves that.
regardless, he has a wonderful father who will always be there to give him the proper love and guidance.

DES, how funny would it be to suggest to this guy that he get a paternity test after the birth?

When I found out she was cheating with him, I was tempted to get one-on-one with him and casually mention that my herpes were acting up again
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
