"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.

Well, summer break's basically here, and I'm gonna change a lot over the summer. There are some problems that I need to address, and it's time I solve them. My goals include:


- Start working out. I hate to say it, but I haven't lifted a weight in a long time. It's pretty obvious that I have skinny arms with a small amount of muscle on them. I'm hoping to change that.

- Rejoin martial arts. This sounds pretty pathetic, but I joined martial arts a while ago. It was pretty fun, I even showed a friend, and he joined like 4 months after. Well, then I got a little lazy, quit it, and now my friend is better than me! Well, I'm gonna rejoin martial arts and hopefully catch up with my friend.

- Get a tan. Strange enough, I wear a sweatshirt quite alot. Since I live in Washington, we don't get a whole lot of sun, and when we do, I'm not out to get a sunburn.

- Get my braces off. I've had braces for a long time, and in August (school starts back on the 31st of August), I plan on getting them off. With no braces, not only will I have a way better smile, but my self esteem will skyrocket and I will turn from wimp to pimp! :cool:

- Start practicing guitar. I'm a lazy son of a *****, and most of the time I like to have fun instead of practicing my guitar. I plan on learning and perfecting 10 songs over the summer.

- Practice singing. I am a pretty good singer, I've gotta admit, but I could be better. I'm gonna do a whole lot of singing over the summer, and when I return, I hopefully will form or join a band, becoming the lead singer. I also need to practice my songwriting.

- Quit playing video games and jerking off. Summer gets boring; everyone goes through it. Most kids turn to video games and/or masturbation to pass the time. I, on the other hand, will actually occupy my time with something production such as weight lifting, exercising, playing my guitar, and singing.

- Get the red crap off my face. I'm not quite sure what it is, but I have some red splotches on my face, and I'm hoping to remove them. I've visited a dermatologist, and it could be either rosetia or something else. It can either be treated with some weird face cream or zapping my face with a laser! Either way, I hope to get the red crap off before I return to school.

- Grow some balls. I might have to do some pretty embarassing things in order for me to get over this shyness of mine. But it's necessary, and will help a whole lot with approaching.

- Improve conversation skills. I've gotta admit, I suck ass at conversing with chicks, I just don't know what to say. Well that's gonna change over time with practice. When I return to school, I'll be able to easily talk to any chick without hesitation due to not knowing what to say.

- Improve comedy skills. I am a funny guy, but there's always room for improvement. I'll be watching Comedy Central alot whenever I have the time.


It's quite alot, so I have work to do. When I return in like 3 months, I'm gonna be a totally changed person, for the better. Not only will my handling with the ladies be better, but so will my musical talent, atheletic ability, and comedy skills.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

can i ask a silly question?

what does jerking off have anything to do with anything?

i mean , come on, are you really going to never jerk off again?

if so, what will it prove? that you can go a long time without it? thats not a very hopeful future. you wanna find someone who can accomplish this with, right?

Jerking off is one of the causes of my laziness with chicks, that's why. I'm not really gonna 'stop' it forever, but I will definately try to limit it as much as possible.
 

"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.

jerking off is a beautiful tool to get that "x factor" that i really cant describe and dont like it too much out of you. dont overuse it, dont underuse it...thats all.

other than that, nice plan. hope you stick to it.
