"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.

Ok maybe you can help me with some thoughts. There is this former friend of mine who is an alpha to the bone. My guess is hes a real natural, a true little machiavelli-kind of guy. I guess im not better because I was a friend of his to learn from him. My problem is that whenever I met him while going out he "steals" all the women I am trying to game and I simply have no chance to compete with him. It breaks my frame some of the time and I haven't figured out a way to handle this.

Maybe it's my pride thats standing in my way but I have to admit he is doing much better than me. I've tried to compete, AMOG maybe in PU terms but hes a class above me. Good with rethorics, high energy guy and very witty. Any experience with this kind of situation?
 

"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.

Land of slow.
quality or quantity

my friend used to match me when it came to dateing alot of girls. Like he dated more than me. Where as I alway would go with a quality hb10 that would come up every once in a while(which I still prefer this method today). It's better if you take it easy while he does all the work, some girl will eventually walk up to you at the party or bar.

Either figure out your own niche of girls that you are better than him or find a different playground and play until you are more confident.

Years ago, I would go out with my mentor, he's about 10 years older than I am. He was better in every way. But due to the age thing, I play a certain age range and he play his. Rarely do we choose the same girl, but if we do, he usually lets me go at it. A true friend.

Galloway -> SparetimeDJ (Sry thats my actual account)

The problem is that he is not really a true friend. I quit friendship with him 2 years ago but he still wants it back. I don't because he is a huge ****block, manipulative and controlling. Actually this guy wrote me a text calling me Judas when i was going to the movies with a group of people including a guy he didn't talk to at the moment. Sounds like a soap opera and it was just like that.

He's like a little Berlusconi and although he is younger than me he plays the teacher card. A master at reframing and a narcissist. I know I have to swallow my pride at some point but I am also sick of getting the "leftovers". I have a lot to do in terms of inner game right now, I know that. Geez it just sucks, lately.

your friends reflect who you are as a person and what you think about yourself...not only that they will influence your behaviour. So with the people that orbit around you you have to ask yourself does this person contribute to my life in a positive way.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
