"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 do guys think about this?

"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.

Not this male!
Overall though, some good points. Women "flirt" instinctively, and men are easy. Women hate when men talk too much.
If men learned how to qualify to determine if she is interested in you, they wouldn't be worried about insignificant flirting signals.

what a load of crap.
I'm a master at telling which girls are interested or not.
You can just tell by the way they look at you.
My success rate with pickups is in the high 90% range, for this reason. I never approach a girl that doesn't give me "The Eyes".
It's a very obvious inviting gaze. That's a woman's role, and it's up to us to take the initiative to approach, if we so feel like it.
Just last night, I was at a local bar with some buds just chillin'... We had just gotten out of a long writing/studio session and I wasn't really looking to pickup or anything... plus this place wasn't exactly babe central. The hottest chick in the place was an 8.5 on my scale.... Anyways, I told my friends that a certain girl was interested... They said "how do you know?" I said I can just tell. She's giving me "The Eyes". It's very subtle, but I could tell....
She hjad a rocket body, but her face wasn't so great. She could be super hot, but it looks like she smoked way too many cigarettes and her face was really dull and aged, if you know what i mean. She was only about 23yrs old, so it's a shame.
Anyways, I just shook it off cause i wasn't that interested.
Well, we were walking down the street a little later and this car passes us and then just hits the brakes. The driver starts yelling "Hey buddy, come here... someone wants to see you.." I walk up to the car and it was that girl. She gave me her# right then and there, much to the dismay of the 4 guys she was with...and to the astonishment of my friends... hahaha... They told me after" Man, you got the gift. lol"
How's that for not interested?

"The Eyes" dont always tell you whether a girl is interested or not. The other night this bangin hot chic stared me in the eyes for a good 3 to 4 seconds. I thought well she must be interested until she did the same thing to some of my boys and a bunch of other guys in the bar.
She might have visited this site and tried a little experiment on us dumb guys to see if it would work.

"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.

One look isn't enough.
You will catch her stealing glances, and that's how you know.

Yup
It's not to say that every chick that looks at you is into you, but I'm talking about a certain gaze that you just know it's on.
Yup I thought so. I've seen it too, and the more it sparkles the more interest she eventually ends up showing. I think it's pupil dilation, because the more the pupil dilates the more of it you can see (with you seeing less iris), and since the pupil is black more light reflects off it giving the sparkling effect.Originally posted by The Bad Ass Canadian

I think we guys are subconciously supposed to recognize this as a mating sign or something.

Well I wouldn't read too much into it.... it's just a look.
