I don't know if this is a dark triad strategy or a common strategy of deceit or interest but does telling her what she wants to hear always a good thing?
"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.
Do you tell her what she wants to hear?

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Absolutely. How do you think Trump got elected - by telling people the truth? He played to their emotions, their fears, manipulated their feelings. He is a master as it. One of the ways he got rich too.
Girls are the same. Play to their emotions. Manipulate, manipulate, manipulate. They don't care what's right or what's good for them. They care about your use and their feelings.

You can do this, but do it cautiously. Here are two major rules for it:
1) Don't tell her what she wants to hear if it compromises your morals, your self-esteem, or your resources.
2) Tell her what she wants to hear, but NEVER tell her when she expects it.
