"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 you do for a tan during the winter?

Hey, I've noticed my tan from the summer's been fading a lot recently (which means soon I'll be quite pale :(). Does anyone have any advice on what to do? Is it still possible to get a tan during the colder months when it's not so sunny but still a clear day?

I'm only really concerned about my face and I'd rather not consider sun beds because of health risks. Any help appreciated :)
 

"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.

"Build a tan" type self-tanners. Without them I would look like the living dead.

Tans in winter are like wearing black socks with shorts something just seems off about it. I wouldn't keep a constant tan or people will look at you funny.

But yes, you can still get a tan on a clear day. Even better go on holiday to somewhere nice and warm.

I like Neutrogena Build a Tan

http://www.drugstore.com/qxp86939_333181_sespider/neutrogena/build_a_tan.htm

$10 and it should last for a few weeks just using it on your arms and head like I do.

And I disagree that a tan looks odd in the winter. Even though I live in Florida I would still use this to at least give a bit of color. You don't wanna look like an oompa-loompa, but a touch of color keeps a person looking healthy.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
