"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.

Here are a few tips/concepts that have helped me during daytime approaches. Some of this may be old news, but it has helped me a lot so I just wanted to throw this out there.

1. Be Yourself At All Times
yeah, I said it. The trick is to be a more confident version of yourself. Girls can tell when you're faking, and your game will likely suffer if it is based on fake garbage. In my opinion, it is much easier to improvise during a situation when you are "just being yourself". Don't change who you are/how you approach based on the girl.

examples of not being yourself:
-using jokes you honestly don't think are funny. USE YOUR OWN SENSE OF HUMOR.
-speaking differently than you normally do, such as trying to talk in slang when it doesn't sound right coming from you.
-acting differently because the girl is a different race then you, taller than you, etc.

2.Throw Her Off Balance From the get go
I get a lot of comments about this from girls. There is quite a difference between how I look/dress and how I speak. Some say I look like a thug/cholo, but speak exteremely well and sound very intelligent. This has worked to my advantage in a lot of situations, and it really throws women off INSTANTLY. They think they have me pegged, but almost instantly realize they are wrong. IMO this perks their interest a little bit. Try it out for yourself.

Suggestions:
-If you look a little rough, try to clean up your language and speaking voice a little bit in order to contrast your look and your personality.
-If you look clean cut, think of other ways to distance your personality from that image a little bit.
-discuss things she wouldn't suspect you know about, or things she wouldn't expect you to like.

3.Sound educated/intelligent. YOU ARE SMARTER THAN SHE IS
This sort of goes along with #2, but I just want to reiterate it. Sounding intelligent can command respect and admiration from women.

suggestions:
-slowly work on expanding your vocabulary and becoming more articulate until it sounds natural.
-you can sound intelligent in many different ways, adapt it to your own personality. You don't have to sound stuffy or stuck up!
-sarcasm+impeccable speaking=deadly. See stephen colbert for good examples.
-combined with all the fundamentals of body language and you will be unstoppable. You're neg hits will be lethal.

Anyway, these have worked for me. Tell me what you think....
 

"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.

LOL, yeah it's been a while. I have a decent memory I guess. Plus I make my passwords easy for myself to remember. Not common, but inside jokes from my group of friends and things like that.

Anyway, after 4 years, I thought I'd just share what has worked for me. I've come a LONG way. When I first started posting here I'd never even kissed a girl. I still have a long way to go, but I finally feel like I can give field tested tips.
