"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.

What do you do when a woman texts you, you text back but she doesn't, then she'll text again a few days later and the same cycle continues. I want this girl to be interested in me, so how do i get her to do that?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

dont answer her text. I know it is hard to do, especially when you get to talking or think that is your chance to move in on her but dont answer them for a while.

Does this girl know that you're trying to get with her? If so, then just ask her out. If she says "yes," then you get what you want. If she says, "no," then you don't have to play text games with her anymore.

If you're still at some pseudo-friendship stage, then you have more important things to worry about.
 

"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.

like the above poster said, wait a few days or so and then just ask her out. She has probablly lost interest because you have not made a move or have shown lack of dominance by not making a phone call instead to set up a date.

So at the moment your just wasting your time, so just take a chance and
move on.
