"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's your best backhanded compliment or neg ?

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Nope , you are wrong. All women are ego monsters.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

An interested girl will probably laught and show you the middle finger in a playful way or softly hit you, an uninterested girl will show no reaction or look at you with disgust.
"I like you because you have a great heart, if only your brain would be at least average you would be the real deal".
2) "I like your hair. Are any of those colors your natural color?"
3) (Upon seeing her tattoo(s)): "I hope they find the guy who did it".
4) "Oh my God, is that one of those things I heard about called a Smart... phone? Cool! Now I heard about this place called the... World... Wide... Web? You may have heard of it, and there is this site there called...Face... Book? Are you on... Face.. book? Wow! You must be really popular!!"

otherwise, i don't neg. Why? I wouldn't like to be negged by a girl i'm hanging out with and i think the girl deserves the same courtesy if she isn't negging me.
it's better to build people up than it is to put them down. i don't want to be put down by the girls i date and I want to date girls who are the same.
"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.

Agree with this. I always bs with negs first because that's how I am anyway. I had a girl smile, laugh, throw up the middle finger with a smirk on her face. You know you're in now.

When she won't shut up about an ex: "Sounds like a great guy, he should be by wingman next time I go sarging"
If you really want to push it and take a risk of really making her furious, when she talks about a past ex abusing her "Well gee, what did you do to p|ss him off so bad?"
