"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.

Well most people here are probably thinking about Christmas but I am thinking about the next year and how this year is a pivotal year for the rest of my life. So I want to write up my goals and would like to hear other peoples goals for the next year.

Here is my goals. Simple and sweet.

1.Find a great salaried job.
2. Move out of my parents house and find my own apartment in/near Atlanta. (just moved back with my parents today and already hate it.)
3. Start a business on the side of my salaried job.
4. Travel a little bit and bring the misses with me. :D
5. Learn French (Got my rosetta stone)

"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.

This is a big year for me as well being the same age as you.
In 2013 I hope to finish up medic school and make the transition from part time to full time. And pay off any debt I have. Keep pushing forward.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
