"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.

Over the weekend, I went to the city and got a few numbers at the club/bar. I go to school about an hour away. Normally, I would ask a girl to coffee or tea for a first date when I call her, but considering the girls go to school in the city and hour away, should I do it differently?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

If you've got a couple of numbers, maybe set up 2 coffee dates at the same time, if not plan it for a time when you happen to be in town. I might call them and chat them up for a bit to keep their IL up in the interim.

How realistic is it for you to travel there on a semi-regular basis?

not really. On weekends maybe or here & there. I am in ROTC, so PT every morning early and I have a heavy credit load. I'm willing to drive up, but not all the time.
