"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.
Driving, Deer

"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.

So, I hit the washer fluid button and nothing...no fluid. It just smeared all this blood, hair, fat and guts all over my windshield. I had to drive about 8 miles with me head out the window, in the dark with one headlight to the next exit. It was a truck stop I pulled into and the hunters all descended upon me like I was the next coming of Jesus Christ. "What'd ya hit? Gonna keep it? Where's it at?" hehehe. I told them no, I didn't want to keep it and my road kill was all theirs and told them where to go. They took off like a bat out of hell, racing to that dead dear in the middle of the road.
Damn it, I STILL made it to visit with my fiance' at the prison. He was mad at me for driving over 100 miles to see him after essentially wrecking the car. Now that's devotion for ya...
Deer are a pain, but it won't kill ya. Moose, on the other hand...those scare me. Their legs are so long and their body weight is high up. Hit them and they come right in the windshield with a ton or better to crush you. F*ckers charge cars, too.

So go out hunting with somebody, or find out WHY you are scared of them... go to a petting zoo, regular zoo and feed them and than watch the ring 2

What a lousy way to go.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

On a slightly related note, I don't like people who hunt deer for the sake of hunting (as opposed to hunting for food or to defend themselves). Kind of wimpy when some guy wearing night vision goggles and a machinegun sprays 10,000 bullets into the forest against unarmed deer. At least hunt them with your bare hands.
“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

People don't go out and hit deer on purpose...and honestly, it's not about how smart or dumb a person is. It's dumb luck. They can be in the bushes and you don't even see them and they'll jump right in front of you without any warning at all.
Hunters who were raised to hunt due to the lifestyle of where they live are responsible hunters who do hunt for food. My family relied on wild game in the winter because my father was a fisherman and things were slow in the winter. All of my sisters and I know how to hunt and none of us ever would have dreamed of playing with guns. They are to be respected and used with great care only.
I do, however, take issue with city people who haven't grown up in this kind of culture who decide to come to communities like the one I grew up in to try their hand at hunting. They are careless, can't tell a deer from a family pet and are dangerous to the communities they descend upon.
Hunting is NOT a sport...it's a way of life. If it's not YOUR way of life you don't belong in the woods with a weapon, period.
Hunting animals with your bare hands would not be a humane way to hunt. Guns are best because it is quick and the animal doesn't suffer. Making an animal suffer would be wrong and disrespectful.
I hit one a few nights ago. Luckily I was coming out of a speed zone so I only had to slow down from 50. I probably hit it at about 25. I was dark so I couldn't find the doe, but it probably ran off. It left a basketball-sized dent on my hood so I think I can have it hammered out cheaply, but it's still not an expense I want as I'm unemployed.
It was on the left side of a two lane highway, froze when it saw me ("deer in the headlights" is true), and then ran back across the right side for some reason. I will stick to interstates next time.
No special tips to offer, just be vigilant when driving in any rural area in the dark.

there is a whisel (i probably spelled it wrong) that you attach to your radio antena. as you drive the air makes it work. aperently it will scare the deer away. I'm not sure if it's loud or if only they can hear it. Look in you local harware store or hunting supplies store they might be able to help you.....
See first entry under Comments. It cites several articles.
From what I gather the air driven whistles may not even overcome the sound of the car itself. From these articles data on electronic whistles appear inconclusive. AAA's suggestion of honking could help if you are alert and quick enough to do so.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
No I'm not. I'm almost old enough to be your Momma...am a single mother, divorce, was married to an abuser and refuse to tolerate disrespect or BS.
Know this, however...if I ever tell someone I'd bust a cap in their ass...I would NOT miss.
I have two daughters. One is low maintenance, down to earth, kind, talented artist, doesn't like guns but loves camping and stuff. She gets HEINOUS PMS, though. She's a good girl through and through and if any man ever hurts her I'll have his legs broken.
The other is a high maintenance girly girl and when she grows up she is going to be extremely beautiful. She's already a drama queen, demanding and spoiled rotten. I'm trying to encourage the feminine side while diminishing the biotchiness. She's half Italian, though...my work is cut out for me. Her father will likely beat the crap out of any guy who hurts her...and possibly even tries to date her, lol.
I am doing my best to raise my girls to look for quality and stay away from the jerks/a$$holes and abusers. If that means being a biotch and chasing those kinds of guys off...so be it. Momma's like a gut shot grizzly when it comes to protecting her cubs.
And no...I will NOT introduce any of you to my older daughter...so don't even go there.
