"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.

Hello guys,

I just wanted to present this discussion that often is not talked about. When you are out getting to know, or dating a woman what side of you are you displaying?

I know know about any of you, but there is two sides to me...A extreme geek side, and the quote n quote social norm side. There is the video games, computers, video game music loving side of me and then the drinking, partying, hip hop, Reality Drudging Numbness that is on the other side of the fence...

Most girls whom I meet I display the latter as it is the most appealing side don't you agree? yet, if you are hiding the other side, and all of a sudden a wave of geekyness strikes her what then?

How much of an impact do you think a woman feels with a man to which her perception of him is this cool etc etc..all of a sudden changes to the other side..a geek?

I struggle with this everyday....Should i show 100% off the break, she likes this side of me, but couldn't care less about the other side.

Does it frighten you if you meet a great girl one side you know she likes..the other side she doesn't?

I guess the whole point of dating is getting to know someone inside and out...All cards on the table.

How do you guys feel about this? :confused:
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

My opinion is women aren't seeking to "know us"

They want men, and if you are willing to play that role for her, she's not going to look much deeper.

I like this, but it's a little pessimistic. As long as you are a man, a woman will appreciate and enjoy all parts of you, whether they're "cool" or not.

As Louis/Copeland wrote "As a man there will come times when you want to explain why you do things the way you do. Don't do it. Never offer details about yourself. Only answer questions."

I consider this one of the fundamentals.

I didn't pass judgment on it. I made an observation. To be pessimistic I would have to see it negatively, which I don't.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Be yourself. She can take it or leave it.

Do you genuinely enjoy video games? if so, don't give it up for any woman.
