"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.

Hey everyone,

I was just hired as the University mascot and I would like to know if anyone did this before and if they could give me some tips and pointers for the job.

I was also liking to know how this affected their social life, good or bad.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Everywhere you want to be.... I'm like a Visa card
Well, I've never been a mascot, but I'll throw out my thoughts.

You'll probably wanna keep it under wraps. You know how people can get drunk and rowdy at the games, and they'll mess with the mascots. It would be worse if they knew who it was.

As for your social life, I dunno. Would telling a girl you are/used to be a mascot be useful? I guess it would be an interesting topic, if only for a little while. Or, she might see it was kind of a dorky thing, and you'll lose points. It would be up to you and your judgments on what kind of girl she is.

Anyway, have fun out there! Keep the team spirit high and enjoy the games.
