"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.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

....which is probably better for the kid in Paul McCartney's case.

This isn't something that should EVER be done. If a person is 60 years old and having babies they're irresponsible. Who is going to change the diapers of the toddler if the parent develops alzheimer's and needs someone to change THEIR diapers?

The average life expectancy is from 67 to 72 years old...a little longer for women than men. Children should NOT be brought into the world by a parent who is either going to die or be physically or mentally unable to care for those children through 4 years of college. Men who put off having children (if they want kids) until around 50 or older are morons who are putting their offspring at a very high risk of ending up fatherless before they even finish highschool, let alone college.

didn't clint eastwood just have one at 70+ with his hottie thirtysomething wife?

nothing wrong with that ;)

better that than a struggling single mom.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

She'll still be a single mother and the poor kid will grow up without a father.

If he did just have a kid I have lost ALL respect for him.

Could you imagine:

*Phone ringing*
Wyldfire: "Hello?"
Clint Eastwood: "Is this Wyldfire?"
Wyldfire: "Yes, it is."
Clint Eastwood: "Would it be okay with you if I had a child with my wife?"
Wyldfire: "Not unless you want to lose my respect."
Clint Eastwood: "Oh, heaven forbid! What was I thinking?! Okay, I won't spread my seed wherever I please just because I am an Alpha Male who will make a kid rich enough to BUY a father when I pass away. Thanks for straightening me out."

What I don't like is when women cut their hair short, get fat and generally let their appearances slide and start looking asexual and "mumsy". I've found it usually happens as the result of complacency after being in a relationship for a long period (and men are as bad, if not worse). At the opposite end of the scale there are older women who try to look younger by making themselves up like a 2dollar hooker. Ewww!

However, a naturally ageing woman who looks after her appearance, stays fashionable, in shape, well groomed and retains some class is as hot as any 20 year old in my opinion.

To me, age is not the determining factor, it's more about pride. A good example is Susan Sarandon and Britney Spears. Give me Susan Sarandon any night of the week!

No amount of money can "buy" away what the death of a parent does to a young child.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

The truth is that most women age like sh*t! They have no respect for their body and they try to look younger by buying a miracle skin cream rather than working out and eating an optimal diet. For 90% of women it's pretty much down hill after their 25th birthday.
Yes, sadly. This is only natural: all through history those women who looked good (who show signs of fertility and health, that is, such as smooth unblemished skin) would marry early on, then have children and pass on their genes - the genes of women who look fertile and healthy in their teens and twenties. Since noone had kids in their thirties (when most people started dying, in the Stone Age), there would be no natural selection in that age, with only the women who still look good in their thirties passing on their genes.

Nature is, as usual, economical with its gifts.

Facts:

The average age of menopause is 51.
Women are still able to have children as long as they have eggs and menstruate.
Many women over 30 look as good as, if not better than their younger counterparts

Those are the facts. Anyone who claims otherwise is blowing hot air out their arses.

No, I'm not stating these facts because I am bothered by men my age or older dating younger women. In fact, I couldn't care less what men my age and older do because I don't find those men attractive. As one of those older women who look great...I don't have to "settle" for guys my own age...I get the younger ones. :D

I was going to reply to this...but decided that it was not worth my time to debate with a middle age woman about this issue.
 

"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.

I find older women sexier myself. Its something about their demeanor that makes them attractive to me. How they think and how they carry themselves.

Plus older ladies are much better geared toward my interests and temperment, for the most part. For example I'd have a much easier time finding a 40 year old woman who likes to discuss politics and current events than a 20 year old.

*sniff, sniff, sniff*

:confused:

It smells like "I don't care if an 18 year old likes older women" in here.

Does anyone else smell that?

Ewww... gross.

Jeez, somebody grab the can of "Go back to the High School Forum" spray and turn on a fan.


Women get older and look for trophy boy toys because the men their age aren't having anything to do with them. Why? They are used up, burnt out, bitter, broken, whackos, have kids, got the clap, whatever. If the younger men are foolish enough to get with 'em, hey, they can have 'em.

You are 18...therefore, finding a 28 year old woman sexier is acceptable. I also find them sexier.

But finding a 40 year old woman sexier (when you are 18?)??? A woman that old that goes out with a man that young has some serious self esteem issues.

I am in my upper 30s. I find many women in their 30s and some in their 40s sexy. But my experience is; women are at their best between the 25-29 year old range. After that, MOST have issues or bitterness. MOST...not all.

My girlfriend is older than me...but she is almost an exception to the rule (more importantly, she is very independent and doesn't want kids).

I would say that based on my experience, over 95% of them (single ones) are like that. Sad...very sad...but true.
 

"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.
