"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.

okay, I'm a big history guy, so when I found out starz was doing a new series on spartacus.

So, we watch the first two episodes. Look very promising. lots and lots of sex. lots of it.

so we get to the third episode of the damn show, and i have to basically waste an hour of my life to watch Spartacus get his ass whipped and surrender.

Okay starz... this is why you are starz and not hbo.

No one watches the sopranos to see Tony go to the joint.

No one watches law and order to see the killer get off.

this is what starz basically did.

I did not tune in to the damn show to watch Spartacus get his ass handed to him and surrender.

to make matters worse, there they could not have picked a better guy to write a series about... as no one is so famous yet so little is actually known about him. they could have made up anything they wanted and this is what they come up with.

And they just made my TV watching experience simpler becuase that is one show i will not bother to watch.
 

"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.

Excellent rant. I fully agree I watched it last night when I had so much else to be doing and was pissed when it ended like that. But it teaches him a lesson and left me wondering what is gonna happen. Although there isn't to much wondering if you know the history of Spartacus watching the show is more like waiting for stuff to happen.

The original Spartacus was targeted for gay's before it was socially acceptable. Why would a remake be any different? You guys are MEN complaining about a gay movie. You might as well talk about Brokeback Mountain.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

^^ We are discussing the show. A show you obviously have not seen filled with tons of sexy naked women and more specifically Lucy Lawless.

Man if every woman looked as good as her at that age it would be a near perfect world.
 

"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.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
