"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.

No problem Approaching, just setting up a date

Hi there,

Now while I am still improving on my approach game, overall I feel that I easily connect with girls and (with my good social skills) can continue a conversation provided she's down. However what I find is my biggest problem is after I talk to them and get a number they always flake out on setting up a date. Maybe it's my texting style or maybe they can sense my loneliness I just don't know but does anyone have any advice? This has happened the past few girls and I believe it is my insistence on getting the date instead of small talk? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated as I feel this is holding back my day game.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Yeah, don't come off desperate, hun. I'm sure the guys here will give you better advice, but maybe do the small talk... intrigue them, then go for a, "Hey what do you say we grab lunch?" type of line. Girls who just meet a guy and (he) doesn't want to do the small talk before asking them out is kinda creepy and sends off red flags. Just my two cents.

Something that I've noticed recently (especially with women your age 18-22) is they don't necessarily like official dates. It's much better to act like you're going to do something anyway and she if she wants to come along.

With two different chicks, one 18 the other 21 when I tried to setup "dates" they basically told me, "they didn't want to promise anything without knowing what life had in store" etc ..basically saying if something better came up, friends/family needed help, etc...

So try being less formal about hanging out and it'll be a lot easier.
 

"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.
