"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Two different friend zones

The first, populated by AFCs, where you wind up when you're a nice guy who never makes a move, supplicates, etc. One-way ticket with no return trip because the girl does not respect the guy. He is not leaving the friend zone.

The second, populated by guys who dated a girl but things didn't work out -- they made out with the girl a few times, perhaps had sex with her, but for whatever reason the relationship ended. As long as the two are on good terms with each other and the guy doesn't look weak there is the potential for a return ticket. To do so, as Pook once wrote about, you have to be patient and control your desire. If you and the girl hang out she has to FEEL good when she is with you. No talking or debating with her about the past or about where you stand now, just keep it light and have fun, lots of fun. Light and fun, light and fun. Afterwards she has to reflect back on the day and feel good about it -- feel good about you. Over time, if there is any chance of a return ticket, she'll pay your way if, when she thinks about you, she feels happy doing so.
 

"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.

Canada, eh?
It does not really matter, because there is always another potential guy involved. It's all about the options she has and your sexual attractiveness.

Second one isn't the friend zone. Remember: "friend zone" has nothing to do with actually being friends.

Women only have two types of male friends:

1. The kind she would never bang. This is the friendzone we most commonly think of. No way out of here.

2. The kind she might bang under the right conditions. He could be a guy she fooled around with before (as the OP mentioned) or he's a reasonably attractive guy in her social circle that she might wake up with if some alcohol was involved.
 

"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.

Thats true, I hope I to find myself in this position with a girl I like but who lives with her boyfriend.

One day when alchool (a lot ) was involved I did with her in public places, stuff that not even with my fvck buddies comes as easy.

Its all about the right conditions, place, moment and alchool.
Alchool is important not only because it makes you a less rational individual in that moment but mostly because it provides girl an excuse for that and a shield for the following day.

Half of all the bangs I get are from zone 2. The key is confidence and be a fun guy. These girls feed off of your confident and fun aura. You will also get free bangs from chicks who recenty broke up with their bfs becuse they need to feel desired by a man who other women desire. If youre ok with banging chicks like this and are just in it for sex, Youre golden using the 2nd zone.
Thats actually the explanation I gave myself for the previous case,despite she didnt leave her boyfriend.
Women want to try our guys who are desired from other women, especially because it satisfies their desire for sin/immorality and feed her ego in getting what other girls want.

I can notice the difference between the way girls treats me when they meet me for the first time and how they treat me after seeing me having success with girls.
