"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.

What did I just do?

Damn... I feel like an ass kind of. I was just about to get her number. She knows that I like this other girl so she was like wouldn't she get mad if i gave you my number? I was like she's nobody. She was about to write her number and I said maybe my other girl would. What was I thinking? She said forget it then, you got a girl. I was like nah I'm just playing with you, but now I guess she believes that I have a girl and she hasn't paid me much attention after that. I saw her again later on and told her to write her number down again, and she was like you got a girl and walked off. Is there any way to repair this?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Damn... I really feel like an idiot, I'm so pissed at myself right now. I'm going to see if i can fix this. Damn... why'd I go and say that? I can't let this one just slip through my fingers like this. There must be a way to get this right again....

Put it behind you and move on. It's a good learning experience, and life's too short to be driving while looking in the rear-view mirror.

some times when you're out you temporarily lose your mind. It happened to me last friday and I really have no explination as to why.

Non the less, the only thing you can do from there is review, regroup, re-arm and counter attack.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I see what you're saying, I'm think I'm fine now. Funny thing is that I don't have a gf, so I don't know why I even said that. But hey, hopefully i'll live long enough in this city to finally have my first LTR or a relationship for that matter.

I was thinking that, like I said, I'm calm now so I can think right. I'm just gonna keep playing it cool. If she's no longer into me then too bad for her. But I'm just gonna continue doing what I was doing. But again, why those words came out of my mouth? I don't know. I'm supposed to be going 2 steps forward 1 step back but that set me back about 5 steps.
