"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 met this hot girl at a movie a week before Christmas, she was all over me, laying on me. Holding hands, She gave me her number. And we talked almost everyday until Christmas, That day she called me and we talked about 30 mins, She said she would call me back and hasn't in like a week. I dunno if I should call her back....Or not...I'm going to, to see whats up. But WTF do you think her deal is? I'm gonna feel ****ty if it's something like she's hurt or sick.
 

"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.

This is a real example of how the disinterest principle works. This poor guy is worried about whether a girl likes him, because she hasn't contacted him. It's not that she ignored him completely, it's that she gave him a taste and took it away.

Unfortunately, if she's playing a game, she may lose because if she wants him to call, she's set herself up for failure. She'll be unhappy if he does call, and she'll think he's not interested if he does.

Ok dude, let it go a full week and if she doesn't call, call or email and flat out ask if she's still interested. She'll either respond or she won't, but it will cue her that she's holding out too long.

Oh really? That's your professional assessment? She was laying all over him and holding hands and he should wait another week to call her????

Listen... just call her and see if she is interested by telling her you want to see her. If she is interested, she'll respond or "perhaps" she has something else going on. If not interested, she won't respond.

So .... call her a couple times and if she's not responsive, write her off.....
