"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 bumped into an ex of mine from a year ago over the weekend at a function. My sis (who is quite a looker) was in town and with me. I figured it might be decent to introduce them considering the ex could get into some jealous rage if she thought I was "with her". My sister and the ex had never met, so false impressions could have lead to a really uncomfortable situation. I knew what she was going to say before I even introduced her--something to the effect of: well, we know who got the looks in the family (in reference to my sis). The first words uttered from her mouth. I'm not a model, but no slouch either. Funny, she wasn't complaining about my looks too much when we were dating...

She made a couple of other little remarks later in the evening, and she purposely got flirtatious with someone in front of me. A group of us were headed out elsewhere later, and I didn't let it phase me in the mean time.

A buddy of mine (loose acquaintance of hers) said he thought she was probably acting up because she wasn't over me. It was a pretty intense relationship that lasted 2 months and I ended it a year ago. I tend to agree. If she wasn't interested, why would she even bother with the comments?

Any opinions here?

I'm dating two other girls right now, but it would be nice to have something in my back pocket.
 

"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.

I dumped her. She was pretty demanding and it was driving me nuts at the time. Long story short, but a year ago, I was pretty drained from everything, ended up getting sick (mono) after I dumped her and she was still playing sweet on me for a couple of months after. She came over to my house sobbing after I ended it. Not a pretty breakup--especially considering how short our relationship was (a couple of months).

you dont want this one in your back pocket.

you dumped her for the reasons that you did and those reasons still remain.

she is currently playing games with you to make you jealous, flirting with someone in front of you.

you dont need her drama or high maintenance.

LOL, our already dating 2 other girls and you want to put this thing in your back pocket?

Can I ask you why?

Why would you want to bring that thing back into your life. Are you a sucker for drama. She sounds like a drama queen. The world must revolve around her and her drama.

Don't waste your time over a girl you saw for only 2 months a year ago??wtf!
 

“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.

In weak moments I remember the good qualities of my ex's. In strong ones I remember why I dumped them.

Does she want *you* back -- or the gf status? Is it about you, or her ego?

You've done two things right: dumped, and didn't look back. Keep on truckin'.
