"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.

the SHOES.

"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.

I kinda have to agree with oakrider here. Why not spend a bit more and get some diesels or lacoste? Get something different that will make u stand out from the crowd.

I wouldn't wear those shoes if I had to.
 

"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.

Damn, sambas get no love on this board. I love them personally, lightweight, stylish, and comfortable. Definitely not professional no matter what GQ says but they're great shoes.
 

"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.

Well the tongue of the shoe kind of has a paper like feel/thickness. But the shoes are really lightweight which means that they don't feel clunky or draggedy. Albeit the superstars I once had were way more comfortable, these are still fine. My Adidas have a tendency to squeak when I walk in them too, I dunno why.

It all comes down to what kind of style you have. If you have a preppy type of style you may want to lean in towards the lacoste or diesel. Two brands that I personally find lame and trendy. I prefer a very casual style in my dress, unless I'm going to a classy party or a dress to impress kind of club. Adidas represents classic shoes, kind of like what frank sinatra represents.

I got mine in black on white. White on black is cool too. I just like white shoes because they stand out a little better. I only wear them once every third week because white shoes will get dirty rather quickly, and you will never see me wearing a pair of shoes that looks like you played a few games of basketball in them.

Sign up over there and start a thread, young blood. Thing is, your personal fashion, is YOUR OWN. Have fun with it and remain congruent.

Peace.

Don't try to get your style from a bunch of dudes on the internet. Look at the guys you see most ofter that have the most success. Don't dress exactly like, but put your own twist to it.

It's the man that makes the clothes. Not the clothes that make the man.
