"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.

Refusal pisses them off.

When I went out on Friday, I was speaking to a guy and he said: "Listen, you have to understand that this is [city name]. You've GOT to buy women drinks here."

This flies in the face of everything that I've learned on this board and other materials. So I went on a test. Four women literally said to me "Buy me a drink!". I just looked at them and said "No. Buy me one, and if I still like you, then I'll buy you one."

I could not believe how pissed off they seemed to get. Three gave me a dirty look, and the fourth tried

"Don't you know that a man should always buy a woman a drink when she asks for one?"

I replied "Do you buy a drink for anyone who asks for one? Why don't you buy me one?".

"Are you cheap, or what?"

"Do you only attract guys who are so pathetic that the only way they interest you is if they buy you drinks?"

"A-hole" and walks off.

Personally, I sort of enjoyed it. But I'd like to get your opinion on the matter. I was probably not totally charming in my delivery (how does one say such a thing in a charming way?)

Thoughts on the matter?
 

"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.

If a woman asks me to buy her a drink, I would respond with something like, "Whats in it for me?" After her response I can probably tell if she's a ***** or worth pursuing.

well you were being an idiot about it which is why when they asked you for a drink, they got pissed. starting arguments is very unalpha and caring about what they say is also unalpha. you just acted like a little kid so they treated you like one.
 

"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.
