Instagram DM is a waste of time. Don't do it. Keep it brief just like any texting.
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 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.
Oh I agree, I'm just disagreeing with OP thinking he has her in the bag.Better to maximize the likelihood of a yes and shooting your shot, than not shooting your shot because the likelihood of success is low
at the end of the day is a numbers game, and a good proportion of the time is not because of you
what we can do is to improve the likelihood of a yes as much as it is up to us
I think the most painful things are when the vibe is good but she is dodging meeting with you, or when she meets with you things are electric and then you never manage to see her again or starts playing games
I’ve recovered and dealt with much worse to know that this can be recovered if I do it right. I can continue the path I know and make it a longer path to success or ask if anyone on here knows a shorter path to success.Oh I agree, I'm just disagreeing with OP thinking he has her in the bag.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Stop wasting time with disinterested women and find interested ones.I’ve recovered and dealt with much worse to know that this can be recovered if I do it right. I can continue the path I know and make it a longer path to success or ask if anyone on here knows a shorter path to success.
Yes, there is an interest alright. An interest in selling him a ticket.There is interest as she's playing along " would be fun to torture you in a class " isn't being polite it's investing in the conversation its not something you would say in small talk lol
OP's responses were poor and the chick knows she holds all the cards that is the problem theres zero tension or flirting
But you're not doing it right. You're starting to sound like you have oneitis. Your way to success at this point is literally just leaving her alone. You've already told this woman that you have no redeeming physical attributes, while casting jealous shade on the fact that she gave a personal lesson to other men. I would just step away from the DM.I’ve recovered and dealt with much worse to know that this can be recovered if I do it right.
