"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 you sacrifice to become Alpha?

This is a question to all those that have made it to where they want to be as a Man and Alpha Male.

What did you give up to get there? What did you sacrifice in order to improve yourself? Personally I feel I need to stop drinking alcohol at the weekends and lose friends that are a bad influence if I want to even begin to get to where I want to be. What did you have to do to become truly happy with who you are?
 

"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.

1) Virginity.

2) Ego. Let go of this and, almost ironically, you'll rarely feel sh!t about anything for a prolonged period of time, ever again.

1. Finally took responsibility for my own **** ups

2. Spent a lot of time drilling the fundementals into my head

Honestly that was it, learn the basics because I really had no clue at all how to interact with women and get rid of my ****ty low self esteem mentality. That took a while but I was listening to guys like Tony Robbins literally all day and eventually it sunk in.

As soon as I started to apply the fundementals while in that mental state, results started to pile up and life changed for me. Wish I'd done it earlier but hey, better late than never

I sacrificed my home state. I hit the road 12 lonely years ago, never to return. Along the way I've had to leave a dozen or so beautiful women who loved me, but now I take home $14,000 per month and have women in 5 states sending me love letters.
 

"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.

Great responses guys thanks.

Infern0 mentioned self esteem. I definitely have some self esteem and 'nice guy' issues that I need to over come. I've been conditioned to seek approval from women for my self worth, which I've learn is a huge no no. I have to sacrifice this external approval in order to get towards my goal of alpha. Hitting the gym more, buying nice clothes, keeping a smart image, no alcohol are my first steps towards internal approval and losing external approval. I guess after this I need to start looking for like minded people to socialise with.

I dont think I'm an alpha. I think Bill Gates is pretty fuking alpha. I'm a joke.

Nevertheless I sacrificed something. I sacrifices my childish thinking, which I would love to go back to, but its too late.

With experience comes knowledge about women and stuff and this is what makes you a man I think.

My feelings. For better or for worse, I'm not sure.

Seeing the world and women for what they are and not what I wish they were.

Realizing that no one can make me happy but me.

You sacrifice having your head buried in the sand and not accepting the world for what it is. You sacrifice not.being able to.take responsibility for your current position in life.
 

"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.

I sacrificed time and possibly money with time being extended to changing the state of mind and perceptions.
