"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.

You could try, but I'd say there's a very low chance of success based on her behavior. It looks to me like she was deliberately making it impossible for you to escalate and now she's giving you the "busy" line. Most likely she's busy meeting other guys on Hinge. So I wouldn't make her a priority at all.

The thing is, if you do get her over again, you need to make a move and put her in a position where she absolutely has to sheeet or get off the pot. That way you'll be 100% certain of what her intentions are, rather than unsure, which is where women want to you to be if they want to manipulate you and use you for attention.

This is why texting and speaking on the phone are such a bad idea - she gets a bunch of attention, whilst you can't actually make a move and find out if she's even worth talking to at all. If she wants to come over, fine, but don't let her suck up a lot of your time talking about it.
Great advice man - thank you!
 

"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.

The ones that do this are the real attention junkies and essentially they have something seriously wrong with them.
I invited one out the other week, I must have gone quiet for a few days, she liked a picture of me, unliked it, then reliked 24 hours later when it had gone quiet, so she stood out as the most recent liker. In a hope i would DM her

Theyre NUTS

Bro she has some degree of interest, and that's all we can ask for sometimes. I would give her a quick response like "sounds good, holler if you need bail money" just to not seem butt-hurt about her being busy. Don't continue or pursue a conversation tho.

You'll find out soon enough if she's getting split-roasted or not by Tyrone. So try to not think about it haha. Drop it and go socialize your balls off.
 

"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.
