"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.

I think my buddy that was with me is more bothered by this. He went out of town (he's an out of town college student and had planned to leave before this incident but to come back on Thursday), and still hasn't came back. He also goes to this bar much more often than I do. He normally goes about every Sunday or Monday and I haven't been going out those nights. I don't go out on Sundays and Mondays much anymore and now I'd feel like I should go just to back my buddy up. I don't know what my buddies going to do.

As far as this beligerant guy, I don't think he'll start stuff again but you never know. And this time he might get back up or bring a weapon. All I know is if I do go there and this guy tries to start something, I'm probably going to slugging him come what may.
 

"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 just smile and nod man.. until that cat makes the wrong move there's no reason to even sweat it... I have been in many "confrontations" at bars and have never once had to hit anyone even during my stint as a bouncer.
