Alright I'm starting high school. Is there anything I need to know? Like tips and stuff like that.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

"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.
To make your HS experience enjoyable be an active guy. TAKE UP A SPORT(S). I do Football, indoor track, and outdoor track. If you are going to only dedicate yourself to one sport then train in that sport year round. School clubs are a joke. They often only meet once a week and have like only 10 members. You get so much more recognition from your peers and teachers if you're in a sport.
My freshman and sophomore year sucked. I was walking around the hallways scared. Head down, not talking to anyone, and slept in all my classes. It's like I wasted those two years of my life not going out on weekends and having a good time. I changed my junior year. Pretty much don't do what I did my first two years of highschool you will regret it so much. Make friends and act like you've been going to that school your whole life attended school events and have fun. When it's gone you're going to miss it so much. Attended a school car wash is going to be such a better memory for you then skipping it to go smoke weed.

QFT, great points. And its very true, taking up sports is a great way to meet new people and upperclassmen especially.
Just don't worry about it. The more you are lax and chill, the easier the days will go by and the better your self image will be. Plus, you will make more friends that way than if you looked nervous

Hey man.
I was in your shoes three years ago. There are a LOT of things I would like to suggest, but I'm only going to give you one. I'm sure you can find more suggestions on this forum. I'm pretty new to this place, but it has so much valuable content... I wish I would have read this going into my freshman year.
Anyhow, High school is going to be different. The best thing you can do is to approach it with an open mind, and seize every opportunity to get to know people.
There are many great people you will meet throughout high school, but you may never meet them if you don't have an open mind and make an effort to meet them. Think about your best friends now. Think about how you guys met. Every friendship/relationship starts as a simple hello or a similar interation. So seize every opportunity to start one.
Let me know how things go. Best of Luck.
Watchin your back,
Big Brother.

"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.

alright thanks everyone.. i been working out everyday ... I also signed up for guitar class. Ima try to see if i can get in football or basketball. Lately I have been trying to spin as many plates as possible.
I wouldn't knock clubs off the list. Colleges want to see leadership experience, and volunteer work. Clubs will provide opportunities for this as well as make connections with teachers for recommendations. W/e you do just try to make the most of it and be actively involved whether that's sports, Student government, clubs, or a mix. Find what will work towards your future and find something to get into where you are in a top position.
I just wanted to add one more thing. Don't be nervous/shy around upperclassmen. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors are willing to be your friend. They are not scary bullies. Their going to know the school better then you and there is definitely some stuff you can learn from them what to expect at your homecoming dance, events for you to look forward to, etc. They will also be able to drive before you will. Having friends that can drive is AWESOME!!!!! I was a junior last school season and I offered my hand in friendship to the whole class of 2013. I became pretty popular with them and a lot of the guys look up to me and the girls would just drool over me. They could not keep their hands off. However still some were just shy/nervous and wanted nothing to do with me just because I was a junior and they felt intimidated I guess. That's where I'm getting this from. Don't be that scared kid, become friends with anyone that you can.
EDIT:
I noticed your comment about spinning plates. For now don't even worry about women. Just be that fun outgoing guy that everyone likes to be around and you won't even notice that you're "spinning plates" it will all just come together with out any effort.
With self improvement comes girls. That's what I learned.
