I've spent my whole life as a beta, but you guys have really helped me by following some simple rules.

This is a convo that took place with a girl who had friendzoned me hard, but that I've been working on for the last couple of weeks. Thought you might appreciate the progress.

1. Being flirty, sexual, funny 2. Escalating 3. Outcome independent - I have to admit, I was raging beta here, but I stuck to my guns 4. No apologies, i.e. the payoff

Thanks Seddit, you guys rock.
