"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.

"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.

I guess she won't be wanting your "meat", then.
"Oh I'm a vegetarian too, we have a lot in common
well I'm not too strict of a vegetarian
sometimes I eat eggs and seafood. Chicken once in a while too. And I love a nicely done steak on occasion.
but I feel so much healthier since going vegetarian"

"Hey, I bought some nice juicy steaks! Wanna come over and help me eat...... oh 5hit, you don't eat that stuff. Well, you can just come over and WATCH me eat them, how's that?
"Honestly, I could never see myself dating a vegetarian. I love meat too much.

C&F: Every time you pass a meat store, exclaim, "ummm... that looks good." or if the two of you walk by a dog or cat: "what a cute dog/cat - looks tasty, too!"
You'd think that vegatarian women would be really pleasantly slim, but most of the ones I've known casually were rather... girthful.
Google the song lyrics "junk food junkie" by Larry Groce - clever 70s novelty song about the hypocrisy of health food nuts.

I was a veggie for about 10 yrs and every family get together some twit would say 'ooh so you don't eat meat then' or 'so, do you live on vegetables?' *giggle* *giggle* :yawn:
Its gets very old very,very fast and you will not come across as being a funny ****y guy at all. Quite the opposite as it'll actually make her think why doesn't this prick just STFU.
