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.

Nothing. Tell her to enjoy her singlehood. Women like her are narcisstic. "I dont want to get hurt" translates to "you arent a combination of Bo Jackson and Donald Trump, so get lost."progressive1 said:I met a chick a few days ago. scale 1-10, shes an 8. I ask her y she is single she tells me she doesnt want to get hurt. She also tells me she's single because she wants to be. Whut is a good comeback for that. I appreciate the help
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
no,i do not think that is true.JackPrescott said:Nothing. Tell her to enjoy her singlehood. Women like her are narcisstic. "I dont want to get hurt" translates to "you arent a combination of Bo Jackson and Donald Trump, so get lost."
again with this,you are beggin her in a technical sense.you are trying to weasel your way into her life.Rumpelstiltskin said:Tell her that if she is alone then no one would be there to heal her wound(s).
I've been hearing a lot of enlightened sayings today. This is one of them.whyme2008 said:i think these are just ideas guys pump into their minds.lets be realistic.i know many women who are like that.and this retreat from pursuin relationships is really a "shell" to protect the ego.
love never gets hurt,its ego that is hurt.

You could try telling her not to be such a pussy... but really she's telling you she doesn't find you attractive so Next.
She is just making a statement about being single. What kind of comeback did you expect us to give you? "Girlfriend, you don't know what you are saying because I'm God's gift to women!"progressive1 said:I met a chick a few days ago. scale 1-10, shes an 8.

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
This one made me laugh. Do it lightheartedly with a smile.Nighthawk said:"It'll only hurt a little bit."
SHE IS LETTING YOU KNOW THAT SHE DOESN NOT CONSIDER YOU relationship material... but if you chase long enough you might get to f her...progressive1 said:SHe agreed to go to the zoo wit me on a date. She even brought it up that we should hang out.
