"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.

"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.

Bahahaha, I'm sold. I think if I remember this, I'll pick up the book, for the sheer amusement. On TOP of that, I'm Canadian! (funny how Americans get idolized)
 

"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.

Hmmmmmmm.

Oh. I don't know. I think the 3rd one is spot on!

Of course. I wouldn't even entertain the idea of marriage, so I'm not a good judge.....:rockon:

those guys are dj.
nah I wouldn't go that far, since thinking and saying it are two different things and it shows when push comes to shove they will opt for the safe answer but not a good answer.

Guy number 1 has the most game since he is banging a chick on a constent basis and that is all we know. Guy number 3 has some game since he was able to secure a LTR with a pretty chick for over a year but does not want anything more and is just stalling instead of dating other girls. Guy number 2 goes on an expensive dinner on a first date in hopes of getting some and therefore has a weak game.

My take of how they should have all answered:

Guy1: say "Thank you" and proceed to sex. If he doesn't love her he shouldn't say it and just continue spinning plates. If she demands him to say he loves her and commit to her and he doesn't want that, he should drop her.

Guy 2: Nothing can be done here since he created this situation. However he could have also said "Thank you" if she offers to help pay the bill and should have split the costs. Just because you pay the bill fully, doesn't mean she is going to put out.

Guy 3: should have said "if she sticks with me, you never know" and wink to the father. That wil probably buy him an extra 2 months and during that time he can look for an exit plan so he can juggle more plates.
