"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.

How can you tell your girl is cheating/considering it. Last night we were together and something just seemed off about her towards me almost an undetectable distraction.

Come to find out she had gone by her first ex's house to pick up old personal belongings which she showed me (thus how I knew) items consisted of adolescent relationship material ie crafty little things with pics of them and I love yous, notes, clothes, inside joke posessions etc.

I'm curious now if she had a realization we're not good together/thinks she wants him back or worst case scenario she out right was disloyal.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Always trust your gut. Secondly the minute you start suspecting there is cheating, the relationship is doomed and your best bet is to move on. Sorry for the short advice but thats all that needs to be said, look at all the other past threads on the topic and you'll see what I mean.

My fear is what if I move on when in reality I made the cheating or dishonesty up in my head from previous experiences?

How do I get the truth and realistically act on that?

You have to ask yourself, are there signs of cheating or are you being jealous. Now that I reread your OP, it sounds like the latter.

At the end of the day, you have to let go of the past, that means letting go of the times you've been cheated on in the past. It also means that if you move on from her, you don't worry about the past, you trust your judgement and move forward.

edit: letting go of the past, doesn't mean you don't forget what you learned in the past, you learn to watch out for red flags.

I just had a look at your thread history and there is something that startles me: how long have you been dating this women? how long have you been exclusive?
 

"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.

WASSUP GUYS....

I don't know if you guys peeped this but it is SO subtle,
but true never the less.

I had a theory about this after seeing the pattern over
and over and over.

ANYTIME that I'm having a great time with a woman I
just met and I can FEEL an emotional connection forming
strength, and she has a boyfriend / husband....

Guess who blows her phone up?

It happens precisely at that moment. I havent had a one on
one relationship in about 2 years, but when me and my girl
hit the rocks, I could tell when she was around another dude
and she was enjoying his company.

You can FEEL this in your 3rd Chakra.

It's the exchange of sexual energy and it PINGS your intuintion
like crazy, out of nowhere. That's what happens when you
form a relationship with a woman and have frequent sex
together.

She's leaking sexual energy (yin) and bonding with masculinity (yang)
other than you. People feel this stuff but don't understand it.

My man Steph over at ideagasms can get you up to speed on
this stuff. It's deep and once you've been on both sides like I
have, it's enlightening.

It still does'nt stop me from being a man though. Most women
now a days play men harder than men ever played women. I'm
talking about juggling 3 dudes at once with immaculate efficiency.

It's kinda scary how slick women are, how many secrets, so on
and so forth. Our culture is in dire need of some equalizer;
something to restore balance and true authenticity.

Johnny Walker, are you in the Army?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

If a girl is really and I mean really interested in you. You will know cause the guilt will get to her bad if she cheated. She might of just had an off day from seeing her ex and memories running around in her head. There are signs to look for if she is cheating. You can go to AskMen.com and do a search on a cheating girlfriend there. Don't stress about this though unless she keeps acting different around you. Or if you really wanna know whats going on just come out and talk to her and say you feel something is up with her.
