"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.

This woman I have been seeing for 5 months or so and we went on a little break so that she could take care of some personal issues. I said fine take whatever time you need. Bear in mind I still like this girl and wouldn't mind getting more serious with her. Bad thing is I think she knows that.

She just emailed me after about 10 days not talking saying "do you think maybe sometime in the next week or so you'd like to meet for dinner?"

Any quick, ****y and funny responses you guys can come up with that lets her know I haven't been just been sitting waiting for her to call or email me, but at the same time lets her know that I am interested in meeting her?

Thanks guys

You don't need to be ****y and or funny to have an effect on a woman.
My response would be 'sure, give me a call and we will set something up'. This forces 'her' to initiate...see what I'm saying? Let her chase after you some; let her know that she needs to work for your attention.

Now, all that being said, you may want to look at the reason why ‘she’ wanted a break. I promise you that she didn't need to take care of personal business, she just wanted a break from you but didn't want to come across like a b*tch.

No it was. We have been dealing with this issue almost the entire relationship, and it finally came to a head. Totally unrelated to me. But thanks and keep them coming :).
 

"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.

How about this?

Why not? Could be fun. Where are you taking me? Mickey D's or Wendy's are unacceptable. :)

No seriously. Sure, give me a call and we will set something up.

Um well i'd rather not get into it but the issue had something to do with her and is something she has had almost her entire life. She seems to be taking steps to clear it up.

Granted, it could in the long run be a deal breaker but for now I'd like to see where things lead.

Personally, I would leave the C&F bit for another time. C&F is good when you are being playful, but it can back fire in this type of situation. There is a time and place for ****y and funny, right now isn't one of those times. You need to play it cool bro.
 

"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.
