How to stay out of the Friend Zone

Chris Rock once said that women don't have male friends. They're all just... Maybe just see for yourself.

(Click here for why men and women can't be just friends.)

You'd be surprised how many good-looking guys I know who are terrified of approaching women. They have everything it takes to successfully get a girl's number and yet they continue sipping their drink at the bar.

My girlfriends and I all love this channel on Youtube called Simple Pick Up. It features three guys who give tips on how to pick up girls. Sometimes they'll have a challenge like picking up women with embarrassing items like tampons or dressed up as Batman. And sometimes it works.

Of course they're not successful every time. But when they're turned down they move on and get another girl's number. None of the guys are the the most attractive, or the tallest or the smartest, etc. but they're confident and charming enough to get lots of girls.

You don't have to be a man to watch their videos. My girlfriends and I love watching them because they're funny. We've also agreed that their tips are not sleazy at all, but just cute ways of breaking the ice.
