"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.

Online dating question - girl is shy but interested

Exchanged a few emails with a girl online, asked her for her number and asked her out. She told me she wants to get to know me better, but is "super shy" and would like to talk a little more via email first before hanging out in real life. I played it real cool, saying don't worry, let me know when you feel more comfortable.

After just one more email exchange, she gave me her number and said to text her. I texted her playfully so she has my number. Limited the exchange to 4 texts total.

When is an appropriate time for me to bring up getting together again? I respect that she's shy, and I respect online dating is scary for some women. Should I write her a few more emails and then ask her again? Or is now a good time, now that she apparently trusts me enough with her number?

Thanks for the help :)
 

"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.

Well, you have her phone #. You exchanged texts. What's stopping her from calling her for plans, lets say this weekend? You doing anything fun to invite her along with?

You have more paitence than me. I was talking to a girl online who played that card. I went along with it for a little bit. Made the "mistake" to ask her again a couple e-mails later, she declined again so I just sent her a message about how she is guarding it like Fort Knox. I didn't really care at that point, not in the mood to be a pen pal and play games.

I just call her and set up plans, you do have her phone # you know. Why go back to e-mailing her?

Good idea. I'll just call her. I have patience for this one because she's hot, lol. You're right, I should not go back to emailing. That's a horrible idea. I'll give her a call tomorrow night. Thanks
