"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.

I blush way too much and I don't know why, even when someone just says my name. It's not really because I'm nervous, but it's just something I do. I just wanted to know if there's a way I can bring down my blushing or something because people who don't know me usually think I'm shy at first because I blush.
 

"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.

Overactive blushing is a medical condition. I've heard of it actually being fixed through minor medical procedures. It's the same deal with over-sweating, say in palms, people think you'e nervous but it just happens whenever. Look for info on it on Google or something and you might find some way to fix it. But I'd say you should really research it before you start shelling out any major cash.

I'm no expert but I'd figure a tan would at least make the blushing less noticable. How you get the tan is up to you, but you might want to try those creams or sprays or whatever that give you an artificial tan.

What did YOU smoke?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

If you blush just cover it up by saying they have a booger in their nose.
