"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.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Yeah,

I started off with Shogan ages ago.

I'm now trying to figure out how to get Rome up and running from a bin file.

I'll probabably end up buying it though:rolleyes:

I'd love to get it. Loved Shogun: Total War. Bought a used copy of Medieval Total War but it didn't work. It seemed like it ran too slow and was very unresponsive, especially during the training sessions. Come to think of it, I think that's as far as I got before deciding that my system couldn't handle it. Any idea on the minimum system requirements for this one?

Rome: Total War is a buyer (if the graphics I see on the History Channel are any indication) but I'm gonna have to update my 5+ year old computer before I even think about that.

I believe it's the same engine as used in Time commanders TV series.

You need something meaty to run it and it needs DX9a I think.

I loved the Japanese music in Shogan, really added to the atmosphere. I heard the composer is quite famous now because of it.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Get a program called Daemon tools, and load up the .bin files on it. There should be 3 bin files, as each one represents a CD. If you do have the 3 files then do what i said, if not, then i dont know whta type of bin file your really talkin about..

Yeah,

I'm on a learning curve here as I'm just starting to understand protected cd rips.

The files are .bin, but then daemon reckons it can't read bin files, I changed the extension to cue but no good.

For the bin files it says unrecognised format and asks me for track info and sh1t like that.

I will go and buy it, for the time I spend faffing I could of earned a heap of cash. I guess it's the challenge. And I guess those guys deserve the rewards, unlike some sh1te games I've bought in the past.

Mr Propellor head also bought 'Lock on' some time back and I must of flown 200hrs (and he reckons he's not a chump :rolleyes: )

"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.
