"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.

Right.. Straight to the point to save all the jibber jabber ;)..

I have recently met this girl and we seem to be texting each other quite allot recently, (I know that can be a bad thing) however when I mean "we" I actually mean her, shes been texting me pretty much every other day, and she always texts me first, I of course text her back but before i can break it off she breaks it off instead.

I want to text her by surprise.. when she doesnt expect it, but how the heck can i do that when she beats me to it? should I just let her text me all the time or should I just text her? or perhaps ignore her for one day then text her tomorow?

I obviously don't want to seem clingy cos thats a really bad thing. Any ideas on this texting scenario?

"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.

1) don't worry about it. You have bigger fish to fry
2) go ahead and take her out on a date while her interest is still there.
3) try 3 AM, she WILL get caught by surprise then ;)
4) ignoring helps if you want to add to the "mystery" so she wonders what you are up to.

Basically, text her when YOU want to, not when you think she wants you to.

@ Bolded stuff, YES.

Agreed to all your points except 3), there's a pretty big chance that you could look like a creep and/or wake her up.

LewisDJ I can only hope you start showing more interest in her as a woman rather than keep texting till you fall to the friendzone, and that means taking her out to spend time with her. You have the momentum as she is showing interest and you need to seize it before its too late!
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Don't text her. Call her. Texting for conversation is insecure and beta, and should only be used for really quick, convenience type things.

I realize all this 'DJ advice' about not texting and you guys have a point. However in the real world most guys I know texted their girl a lot before they got together. If texting is 'insecure and beta' then why is it getting all my mates and myself girls?

The problem is if you don't esculate, or don't see her in person (or make an effort to), or even worse you see her and don't do anything.

It's not like texting never works, or always screws up your chances, but most of the time, calling will have a better effect.

Hey, thankyou for all your advice, ideas & views on this topic ;)

Well we have only been texting each other for about almost Two Weeks now, and I am most certainly not gonna screw this up, I'm confident enough to ring her up tonight and just talk the talk, keeping in mind, not to make the conversation long, and not to talk about anything bad, and when the conversation gets interesting, *ive simply got to go* :cool:

Quick note, I think she does know that i am slightly interested in her (but still remain mysterious), and I know shes interested in me.

This will all go well my friends...

Good Luck Bro.
 

"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.
