"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

She's acting flaky about an event she invited me to?

Girl counter-offered an event after I ignored her because she was trying to pull some last minute BS thinking if I would fuel her ego.

Anyway she invited me to this event and was super enthusiastic about it. Anyway I told her ya I am up for it then she got weird. Asks me will I be there for sure, said yes, then tells me she's working through next day though. Just said okay well I like this event and I am going with or without you. Asks me again if I am going and have my ticket and I said yes and logged off growing tired of her BS.

She comes back the next day telling me she's working really early and she doesn't think she can go with a bunch of crying emojis.

Just blanked her. What is this girl even trying to pull here? Last time she did the exact same thing then texts me 4 hours before the event even though she didn't confirm anything expecting my schedule to just be free for her.
 

"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.

Sounds JUST like the one from the STR I got out of a few weeks ago. Hem haws around about what she wants to do. Changes her mind whenever you agree on something. Wants there to be a problem with something no matter what, and if there is not, changes it so there is. Run, run, run Forest, run..

Flake 100% and a big red flag. In my book is a big disrespect when someone invites me somewhere and end up not coming.

Ditch this b**ch and move on! You can do better anyway.

Case closed. Get out of my court.
 

"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.
