"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.

Random girls in bars come up and ask to take pictures?

How do you men handle these situations? I had a cool t-shirt on and had a lot of women coming up asking me if they could take a picture with me... I told them that I charge for my pictures and they would have to pay up front... but they were often pushy about it... and before I could do anything they were taking it. This happened 3 times and I was caught a bit off guard.

And I ended up getting way too drunk to make anything happen but had a lot of fun.

Do you guys allow this? Is it better to refuse to take the picture and make things on your terms? Is there a better line to hit them with?

"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.

hey

What kind of shirt did you have on? And if it was me I would say what is in it for me? And than if they respond with what do you want than ask them for a kiss. Do this in a confident manner. You will be surprised how many woman will probably kiss you.

I would say that you have some thinking to do on this.

Mystery addresses this saying that he would Never be used as a tool to take their picture. He'd just turn his back and start talking to someone else.
 

"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 had an electronic shirt I bought in europe when I was doing some business travel. It has a battery pack and animation and flashes and glows in the dark... definitely got a lot of attention.

Make the most of it, and get something in return, like a drink or a kiss. And they approached you, so it should be easy to talk to them (now, later) if you want.
