"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.

Ok posters.

Which Sosuave thread(s) help change the way you think or help steer your life into the right direction.

I'm looking for something inspiring. I have lost sight of my direction, I have not been in touch with my ambition, so I need something to help kick me back on the right path.

Right now, I am asking for your help.

PLEASE, INSPIRE ME!!!
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Honestly, nothing here has really given me that so much as reaffirmed it.

Wisdom exists within you whether you acknowledge it or not - uncovering it is the key to actuating it and turning inspiration into action.

I'm personally a thinker, a philosopher, so it helps me to stop thinking and philosophizing so damn much and just go out and do things, and tweak as I go.

So, a lot of the advice I rail against, like telling new guys formulaic approaches and such like that, are exactly the types of things I think are necessary to kick people out of their comfort zones and getting them used to the idea that "I can't do it now, but if I work at it, I can."

So yeah, I'll argue a lot about methods, but I'll always be the first to admit that doing something is better than doing nothing.

Dunno if this is what you were looking for.

In a world where I embrace and enjoy life
Personally I enjoy reading this entry : http://dapook.blogspot.com/2007/12/adventurer-and-vortex.html

Specifically:

"Life never runs smooth. It is a bumpy ride with set-backs as well as uphill struggles and downhill surges. If a person complained that a ride was not "fair" he would be considered mad. The purpose of the ride is the fun of taking different roads, seeing new scenery,
and meeting the new people that come in
your life. This is the Adventurer which every Human begins as (what we label the 'innocence' of a child) ......."


It reminds me that I am human and as a result I will experience lulls, times where I'm unmotivated, or simply the basic ups and
downs of life. Through these experiences I
always learn about myself and/or I find
something interesting and new to explore.
And in my opinion that makes life worth
living.

To put it simply:

Set goals=======>Work for them======>enjoy the madness that ensues.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
