"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.

Do any of you think it's possible that a girl would ignore your texts because you have an android vs an iphone? If you had both phones did you notice a difference?
 

"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.

Seriously?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I have heard of I-phones not receiving texts from droids on occasion. Call if in doubt!
Usually that will only happen if the person has imessanger turned on and they have no internet connection. Once they get an internet connection all the texts come in.

Other than that, the "i didn't receive your text," line is usually a lie.

Yeah, using android shows a ton of lower SMV
Sometimes a girl will drop you because you have an android instead of an iphone. I knew a gamer girl who stopped talking to a guy because he had a PS4 instead of an Xbox One!

To some girls, your electronics can be a deal breaker. But no guy here wants to be an e-orbiter!

Yeah...paying triple for much smaller phones, features android had 3 years ago and the privilege to pay for every app you download is really where its at!
