"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.

her: 'I'm back in town, meet me'
me: 'Sorry I can't I'm out of town on work, and I have too much, can't make it back to London for the next few days, possibly be back by Saturday'
her: 'I fly on Thursday' (1. I already knew this 2. Does she think I'll automatically do something about it...)
me: 'Miss you lots, wish I could make it back to meet you but this work is really important'
her: 'I miss you too, this is annoying.'
(I really had to think here wtf to say)
me: So when do you get back?
her: don't know (awkwardness, of course she knows!)
me: Ok, I hope you have an amazing trip
her: Thanks, bye

Whaaaa????????
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Thanks, I hope that is the case. It is the girls birthday a couple of days after she leaves, do you reckon she deserves a call then if she doesn't call before she leaves?
