"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.

After much self-reflection on my failings and loneliness, I wrote these pledges to myself. All of this is already documented on here but I had to write it for myself.

Dear Women,

Never again will I apologize for the car I drive.

Never again will I apologize for my frugal spending.

Never again will I believe that you respect my work ethic.

Never again will I miss the gym for a social event.

Never again will I believe my scars don’t bother you.

Never again will I wait to date you.

Never again will I, “Just be friends.”

Never again will I continue a date after hearing, “Let’s just be friends.”

Never again will I speak to you after you break up with me.

Never again will I believe you won’t leave at a moment’s notice.

Never again will I believe your bull**** breakup reasons.

Never again will I believe that you will change.

Never again will I believe that you’re innocent.

Never again will I get wrapped up in your drama.

Never again will I believe that your ex-boyfriends were the problem.

Never again will I believe anything you say about feelings for me.

Never again will I write you letters.

Never again will I believe in or practice romance.

Never again will I believe in “the one”.

Never again will I believe that you will accompany me.

Never again will you see my heart.

Never again will I care about the outcome.

Never again will I be a chump.
 

"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.

It took you 6 years to do this? Jesus. Well, at least it's done.

I gotta say though, this part really speaks to me:
Never again will you see my heart.
This is saddening but it is true for me just as much as the others. I don't think I can ever give my heart to a woman ever again, or even another person. Then again, it wasn't because of women that I'm like this either. Still saddening how you have an amazing ability that you are born with that you cannot even use
