"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.

I do think someone's SMV (Sexual Market Value) is very important, but not too relevant after a certain value. To make an easy example, they say that after $75k of income a year, your happiness won't grow anymore. This should be the same for someone's SMV. Then it comes an important element for someone life and SMV: the "kind" of job you do.

As a kid, I always thought that an interesting job would have an important element: "The story".

So, after you've ended your workday, you come back home, and your "kids" and "wife" are waiting for you to "narrate" the story of your day. This is what kept "suspense" and "desire" for a woman in an LTR.
She "craved" to know where you would be, what you were doing, and when you come back home, the tension she's accumulated during the day is at the climax, and she will release either with sex or in other ways.
This could be connected to the fact that many years ago, the women stayed "home", caring for the family, while the man went out hunting, and then, came back with a "story" to tell.

Modern society still relies on those subconscious patterns, even though they want us to look like we're in a different manner. This is why a "keeper" and "household" woman will make a better LTR with a "hardworking" man with a "risky" job and make a better family, and a "career" oriented and not "household" woman will not be good for a family, will have multiple "relatively short LTRs" in their life, with different men, with increased SMV and her condition by year.

There are also exceptions that would make my theory bad, like two people who work on the same job, like family-run businesses, which make good families. (This is very common and gets in contrast to that "risk" "storytelling" thing.) But maybe, the wife will stay at work for the morning only, while the man for the entire day.

Now we can see different configurations, like workfromhome, or two people who passively earn something and so live their life togheter, etc.

In terms of which would be the best life to do, "family oriented", do you think the good old way with "risky job" will still make a relevant impact, or which would be your favourite configuration?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

The integrated good life.

Build your life around what you like. If it's music, then make your life only music. People, connections, wealth.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Said who?

No, they're not. And no one else wants to hear you vent about your day either
