"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.

The girl who dumped me because "she feels she rushed into the relationship" Just texted me after I went about 2 weeks of NC. She is the young, 22 year old college senior. She didn't have any psychotic manipulative behavior, I just feel she wanted to be free to mess around and I got a big too controlling/boyfriendy, but no doubt maybe her other "option" didn't pan out.

How should I play this if I want to potentially initiate casual sex?

She texted me "hi" (Her boots are still at my house) If she asks me about them ill tell her I threw them out lol
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

OK, now the next text she sends, sayd "Oh cool...I'm busy right now, but I'd love to catch up later, why don't you stop by tomrrow night and bring some wine/vodka/beer and we can hang out." If she agrees she is DTF, if not you just prevented her from wasting any more of your time.

If she refuses, just say "Ok, take care then." and don't text her anymore.

Lol...never let a woman try and put you in orbit. She either plays by your rules or she plays elsewhere. No woman is ever worth your self-respect and dignity.

Hell no, is never ever be an orbiter. my first response wanted to be like yeah what do you want? But I know if I wanna hook up again that would put her off. She didn't respond yet. Sometimes I swear they can feel when you're moving on. Either that or she's drunk textin.

just please please please dont fall under the spell that 'if she apologizes and gives a weepy excuse, you'll take her back'

speaking as a female, she did you very wrong and she knows it. even if she is a 'confused teenager' she's not any smarter a few months later. it's going to take years for her to figure out how to make respectful decisions regarding men and relationships and then she has to learn how to value and respect men somewhere along that way too.

she must feel ****ty huh..I'm definitely a high value dude and she knows I woulda did a lot for her, maybe that's the issue. I'm sure her other option she's realizing is not the better. BUT I feel as if I still had some impact on it because I got controlling and needy
 

"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.

Idk if she feels ****ty, that's the problem. She legit could have been monkey branching. You can't tell. That's why she needs to be a plate for awhile

Well that was fast.. I've been going NC with my ex, but would like to slide in and out every once in awhile. We have a kid together so she is kind of forced to talk to me, but she is with a new dude and he's over there like every single night, but I can't see it lasting very long. I feel like my ex is coming up with excuses to call me, asking if my daughter left this and that over etc.. sometimes asks if I'm "ok" and ****. Just gonna keep doing my thing..

I did say that, we'll see way she says. She does legit have to drive a few hours home in the next 1 or 2 days and despises my room mate but we'll see if she counters by inviting me there

And now we wait!
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I've had success with turning EX's into fvck buddies, so it is perfectly possible, but it takes tremendous inner game. If you feel like you're going to get attached and fall in love with her then it's best to just distance yourself. Sometimes you fvck for awhile and start catching feelings.. gotta throw that **** out the window and keep your frame.

Wait....this is the one who told you she had to drop you to study and then you saw pics of her partying a faith other dudes?

She's now trying to swing back around and reiterate the study angle? ( even tho you saw her social media?)

I may be getting mai dudes mixed up, so apologies if that is the case....how close am I?
