"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, so I had planned to meet up for lunch with this girl who I met on facebook, a while ago but never actually met her in person. Let's call her girl B. She IM'd me this week and I thought about how we had never met so asked her to lunch (because she seemed reluctant about a formal date due to getting screw over by guys). Anyway, she seems pretty interested, at least in meeting up. Looks, I'd say about a 7, though her pictures on facebook make her seem like she might be taller than me lol (I'm 5'9).

Anyway, last night one of my best friends and his gf came over to watch a movie. She brought with her a friend of hers from her sorority. Watched Super Bad and just chilled. Nothing big happened, but after her friend, girl A, left, she smacked me (playfully) and told me she thought I was really cute, and that I should have talked more. I was like wtf because we were actually trying to watch the movie and I felt it would have been rude to talk too much (not like i didn't talk at all). Anyway, I talked to girl A today and we're going out to dinner on tuesday.

Yes, tuesday, the same day I'm supposed to have lunch with girl B. Now, as far as I know about girl B, I'm pretty sure girl A is much more attractive, and I've actually met her in person.

So, should I go on both dates? lol...maybe use girl B date as a warm-up or practice date? Or should I cancel with girl B since I'm not all that interested in her. I mean, two dates in the same day would be stressful, not to mention I have two finals on wednesday haha.
 

"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.

why are you asking us what you should do. The more practice the better. If you can handle it then go for it. We don't know how you handle your stress, but why not go on both dates. Also i wouldn't cancel on Date B in case girl A flakes. You never know, play the game smart. You have options.

i think, if anything, double-booking will make you mentally more confident knowing you have another option..A or B lol.

Agree your finals are all important. Focus on them.

But IF you are not worried about your finals... then definitely try to handle the 2 dates on the one day. It keeps you from being too desperate for either to succeed, which will in turn make you feel more in demand and more at ease. They will probably pick up this vibe and will be more attracted to you try harder to please you. Being less available and more in demand is a good thing. Give them both a shot though. Even the HB7 might turn out to be a great girl.
 

"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.

Thanks for the responses guys. As far as options go, I'm not concerned...I have more besides those two girls.

But yea I think I'm going to call off the lunch date. Even though I've been studied plenty, I don't want to get too unfocused. I'll just study tuesday all day then take a break from studying at night.
