"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.

So i have tried everything. Ok maybe not everything but i have tried many different things i learned from this forum and no matter what i do i always turn back to my friendly self. I am just too nice. It sucks because i can't help but try to please girls, which in turn makes them only want to be my friend. Apparently i give off some kind of vibe that attracts girls, but not sexually. I get many many girls who want to be my friend but never my girlfriend. If i try to play any kind of game or use the push pull or whatever i ruin it because i feel bad and i give in which in turn makes me feel like a pvssy. Please help me i seriously do not know what to do.

You being "too nice" is you being a phony. You're nice because you think it will get you something, not becuase you're a "great guy". Then you try to replace that with another phony face "the jerk".

Women can sense phoniness. You should get in touch with who you are.
 

"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.

Funny you should say that grim, cuz i'm majoring in theatre and i want to become an actor haha. And reset you're right i am too nice thinking it will get me something, then when it doesn't i get pissed off and become a jerk. I do need to find a way to get in touch with who i am. i just don't know how exactly.

It starts with not letting people dictate how you feel about yourself. Do a search, for Nice Guy. There have been some great threads over the last weeks.

Eventually, enough women will stomp on your feelings until you become jaded enough to turn into the type of jerk that attracts women. It's a natural process that most of us go through.

Stop treating other people as better than yourself just because they're pretty.

Read the Book of Pook and "The Natural Order of Things" to understand what being a man is really about. It's sure as hell not about worshipping women.

Maybe check out Pook's blog also to see how women will screw you over if you act too nice.

And yeah, working out is a good idea, too.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Yeah, something like that!

At that point, it's tough for them to affect you either way, then you're unstoppable.
