"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 just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

This all comes back to something I read: don't go looking for an easy life. Guys bash women for running away when a man wants a relationship off the bat, but they may have the right idea. If someone basically just rolls over in a sense and makes things that easy, 9 out 10 times it's going to be trouble.
That said, if some woman is ready to marry you eventhough she lives overseas and hasn't had time to get to know you, let her go. This isn't the old days when she would be stuck with you. There are laws and rules that will give them more power along with lazy judges and lawyers who will just give the same basic rulings and arguments without taking other things into consideration.
