"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's a snippet from our AIM convo

Me (8:23:32 PM): because im a huge procrastinator
Me (8:23:32 PM): thats why
Me (8:23:47 PM): i have to ****ing remember to give books for help for the holidays
Me (8:23:59 PM): i have to get **** for some **** clas
Me (8:24:03 PM): i need a stress reliever
Her (8:24:18 PM): :-D
Her (8:24:28 PM): i am your stress reliever ! whats up
Me (8:24:35 PM): alright
Me (8:24:42 PM): sexy time
Her (8:24:55 PM): huuuuuuhhhhhhh
Me (8:25:39 PM): well you said you were my stress reliever
Me (8:25:43 PM): are you or are you not
Her (8:25:57 PM): uuh
Her (8:25:59 PM): i am confused
Her (8:26:04 PM): so i am just gonna take back what i saidd
Me (8:26:10 PM): right, you do that





So did I come on too strong? We've been talking around a month and just pseudo-flirting back and forth and I'm trying to be more bold and direct in my life and this is the first time I've applied it. So what, did I come on too strong (she's 17, so there's the whole 'not wanting to be a slut thing', so is she putting up a facade to see my reaction and to avoid labeling herself a slut) or is it just this particular girl not feeling me?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Never appologize, just move on. I dont think shes really feeling you tho buddy. See the flirting back and fourth for a month is bad, she probably just sees you as a friend by this point.
