"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.

ah leave the guy alone, he might not be familiar with America's stupid Imperial system

the rest of the world has moved to metric, yet the US sticks with an archaic measurement system
 

"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.

I'm 6 feet, so hardly any chick is taller than me.
Same here, I'm 6'1 so it's rare that I meet a girl taller than me. and she would be freakishly tall and I wouldn't be interested in her.

"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.

I'm four inches taller than my boyfriend (without heels) and think he's mad sexy.

Oh, and I asked him out.

The height difference was a bit awkward at first, not because I was embarrassed or anything like that, but because you just don't see many couples with that kind of height difference. A year and a half later and we hardly notice it.

You know I think it is really easy meeting girls when you are 6'7" like me. You get a lot of sympathy. People feel for you in a good way. They admire your height, yet they understand some of the issues we have to live with. I don't care if you snag a first class ticket on a flight. You still must try and navigate the bathroom! Every single time - BANG! That is the sound of my head meeting the top of the exit part of the bathroom. It hurts like hell but people always smile and comment on how nice and tall I am. This sort of thing happens all the time. I get asked if I can sit in a booth in restaurants or if I would prefer a table that might accomodate my height. I can always sense that the person admires my stature. As the girl takes me to my table she usually says, "Wow, you are really tall." This is always accompanied by a sincere smile and eye contact.

I can't imagine how guys my height or taller buy sports cars. I have tried to get into a few and it felt like I was being crushed. I hated the feeling.

Tallest girl I dated was 6'1". Shortest was 5'8".

I often get asked if short guys hate me. Sadly, many do act as if my height has brought their manhood into question. Ask any tall guy about this. I am pretty thin so I always get a kick how all the little guys bulk up in order to feel more like a man. Those are the ones who seem to especially dislike me. I am positive that if I hung around middle-class night spots I would get picked on by smaller guys. Luckily I prefer quieter evenings. The only fights I have been in have been on the basketball court and I would have lost those if not for the refs and coaches.

Still sucks not to be able to buy normal men's jeans or pants. My legs are really long, so the trunk isn't that much different than a guy who is 6'2" or 6'3". Problem is that I have really long arms. I have the wingspan of someone 6'10". Ugh, I end up spending a fortune for clothes that I don't even like. That is why all the college ballers always sport tracksuits or sweats. It can be expensive to dress like a normal student.

^I hate you, out of jealousy.

When a woman seats me to a table she tries not to make eye contact with me. I find women try to be as asexual as possible to make sure I realize they're not interested.

At the same time, I find most guys who are 6'7 are often incredibly self-absorbed, and never develop more meaningful traits. If you notice, most of the great musicians are well below average height, as with many actors.
In all honesty it sounds like you are more like 5' 7" than 5' 8" given the level of troubles you have with height. Are you sure you are 5' 8" or just going off what your friends say they are? Serious Q.

I have never dated a taller woman, and I probably wouldn't. I'm 5'10'' and thankfully, I'm taller than most women... although I do see lots of tall women lately. Is is something in the food?
 

"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.

I dated one briefly. anyways I think I would like to date a taller girl again. As a matter of fact I saw one last night that was smokin' yet without the high heels she may have been shorter then me. Something turns me on about it.

hey wutang,

I remember you showed us a clip of a 5 foot "millionaire" or "best-selling author" who wasn't even picked by women. Well, at least your not that man although I've seen a 5'3" man date a 4'11" woman.

i'm 5'8" - 5'9" and i've never dated a girl taller, but i have gotten a girl that was taller than me obsessed about me.

but usually, i don't like girls that are taller, cause you don't feel as confident.

I haven't. I'm around 6'2, but most girls I do date have to be no shorter than 5'6.
