"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, firstly, I'm a 21 female...

a quick question:

What are you guys actually thinking when you give prolonged eye-contact to a girl you see on a street or somewhere (hmm, some would call it staring)? Just curious! and also, from a girl's point of view, if you're interested in knowing the girl, and she seems to be interested too, talk to her, damn it! ;)

Ok, that's it.

cheers.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Men aren't that complex. You know when we feed fish they kinda just go up towards the food when you throw those specs of funny smelling fish food in? The fish don't have a lot of thought behind it - just instinct saying there is some food up there.

Its kinda' like that for men and staring at women. :)
 

"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.

What are you guys actually thinking when you give prolonged eye-contact to a girl you see on a street

There's no real answer to that, and it depends a lot on the circumstances I'm in.

If I see a girl in the street and decide to begin staring into her eyes, then chances are I'm thinking something along the lines of either:

1. hmm, she's ok. I'd do her.

2. She's hot, I hope staring into her eyes will show her that i'm a confident guy and maybe telegraph my interest without being too obvious -- because I'm feeling like a pvssy today and dont wanna have to say "hi".

3. wow. Thats 5 now! I'm almost there with today's bootcamp assignments! :p

'owever, it's not always a conscious decision. Sometimes your eyes just meet with someone else's, and you start to wonder why they're looking at you. And you dont want to look away first, for pride reasons of course.

And sometimes it's just a bit of fun, because you're bored and feel like a little bit of flirting. Staring into a hot girl's eyes gives you a rush no matter how many times you've done it, and it's very low risk. You see what I'm saying here?
