"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.

Hi Guys.

I guess it's all part of getting older. I'm 45 and just recently started to notice that some days I just am not interested in gaming women at all.

I called the post Waining Libido but in actuality I still have a pretty healthy sex drive these days. I'm sexually attracted to women.

I don't suffer from a lack of female attention. I know many women and have a bunch of female friends. I even have a few young women coming on to me and showing interest from time to time. I'm not in any relationship, I prefer to live alone.

I guess I am becoming disillusioned with women on some level. Sometimes I can't be bothered to show them any interest at all.

It comes and goes, some days I want to meet and connect and other days I don't.

Can anyone else here relate to this and give me some advice as to weather it's just a change of life or is it a phase or what?

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Get your testosterone checked by your doctor. If it's low there are medications to help bring it back up. It likely won't make you feel 18 with raging hormones but should have some positive effect if that is actually the problem.

Oh yeah - disclaimer - I'm not a doctor giving medical advice. :D

take advantage of it. When you conserve your "juice" you feel better and relate to others better. Instead of worrying about it, relish the opportunity to work on yourself so that the next time you feel "up to it", you can go at it with more energy gusto and vigor.

The silver lining to this is the less you have a drive for it the more you get of it in because you are thinking of it less and therefore being more comfortable around hotter women. Generally speaking or course.

I can relate to that. Sex drive is high and all, but maybe it's a been-there-done-it-so-many-times-and-it's-typically-dissapointing-I-don't-see-the-point-in-bothering-most-of-the-time syndrome. The woman opens her mouth and out comes that squeaky, high pitched whiny valley girl-like voice. Ugh. Or they have issues. Or they want babies.

Give me a class act. An intelligent, thoughtful, stylish, FEMININE woman (who doesn't want to have a kid). Do they make them anymore? It's then that I'd be more motivated.
 

"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.
