Is it possible to have a 100% completely platonic relationship with the opposite sex?
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
Platonic Relationships?

"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.

Yeah, if you're not attracted, or have enough self control.

A good follow up question would be:
"Why would a MAN want a platonic relationship with a woman? "
Experience has taught me over the years that most ADULT men only find themselves in platonic relationships as a result of the woman's decision---not theirs.
Are we mistaking a Platonic Relationship for being Forced into the Friend Zone?

I find this topic interesting. I've never been able to reach a conclusion. The women I'm usually friends with are:
A. Unattractive
B. Off the market - taken
C. Cirucumstance boundary - She's my sisters best friend. Etc.
I've yet to be strictly platonic friends with any chick whose passes the boner test. If shes decent looking we usually end up smashing somewhere along the line.
I think it's impossible.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Pfft, yeah. What kind of a question is this? It's perfectly 'possible', it just often times doesn't happen in the long term.
The only way for this to work is if the guy has 0 attraction to her and still wants to have her in his life as a friend.
If it's the other way around then the woman will wind up using that to her advantage.
