"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.

Met up with an old screw buddy last night for a couple drinks. I haven't seen her in over a year. History, though, repeats itself, and we screwed again.

Just curious when I should talk to her again.

I was thinking a week would be too long. It's saying you don't give a f.ck.

I think 3-4 days however would be brilliant, more like a "we could get together again or not, I'm fine with either way...but I rather fancy you"
 

"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.

considering you were an old screw buddy, I would say a call the next day would be a nice jesture. All the other guys wait at least 2 days you can afford to be a little nice. just don't give up the power entirely.
