"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 have to get new plates spinning, like now, but..

---

I just got fed this crap from one of the (now-ex)girlfriends (long distance).
k i need ot say lots of things k. i don't know if u will email me back but im going to do this so we get things clear. umm... for start i did like you, but i was mad that night at u and so i said that i didn't cuz i knew that it would hurt you. umm.. for me a relationship is about talking to one another bout whats going on in thier life, i know i had some stuff going on and i still do but im still not read y to tell anyone, but one thing is that i was thinking alot aobut andy and damon kept tlaking ot me about him cuz he is there with andy and he asked andy and it turns out that he dose like me. and i jsut didn't know how to tell that and i didn't think u wnated to hear me go on about andy when we where dating. so yeah, i thought it would better for me if we broke up cuz that way i can get andy out of me 100% out of and yeah. i guess i just need time. and i never palyed u like jen told u i did. im sorry.
Of course, I can cleanly see she's all "confused about Andy", and she's trying to cover up the fact. And on the flip side, my other ex is feeding me the usual 'oh, she really means it' and 'you should wait for her' and a bunch of garbage like that.


And what did I tell the other ex.
Hey, she likes another guy, and she broke up with me to sort things out with him. As far as I'm concerned, I'm not that important to her, and I could care less what she decides, and I want nothing to do with it.
Point in case, I'm not hurt at all, and that's due to trying to run multiple plates, and not really falling for her as she'd expect.

I laugh, because tonight, I might hit the bar, I've been invited by three girls at work pretty well to call after I'm done work. I probably won't go, I have to get up at 6am tomorrow..and I want to make this really interesting.

I need to get more plates flying, I'm only running 2 as of now, and it's pissing me off, (along with trying to run game on the ex (Jen by convo)), and this distance issue I have is hurting it bad, because she's all confused about three guys as well (ain't me), but just, I'm getting burnt hard at the moment and there's nothing I can really do about it.

Meh
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Focus on improving your communication skills. You'll thank me later. Learn how to build rapport with people and you'll have more plates then you know what to do with. You might think you know how to build rapport, but how important to you is improving your ability to do so? Practice makes a master.

Yeah, I'm aware there's nothing I can do, I realized that from when I received that laughable excuse of an email.

I can do conversation like no ones business and I don't have to think to flirt. It's not a lack of communication skills, rather it's a lack of having any local girls because I work so much (and I'm trying, I've been talking to girls left and right at resturants and I have rapport everywhere, but I see rings and casual mentions of a boyfriend (not of any fault of myself, that's just where the conversation lead), so I'm getting kicked in the nuts pretty well to any degree I turn. One girl was 15, and I had no choice but to drop getting to know you conversation, nearly goddamn blew my mind.

Just a rough rough patch, I felt like crap tonight from lack of any prospects and a really bad night for tips (I want to kick people in the balls when I have to shortchange myself a cent or two with no tip, or I have to stand there and rifle though coins because I ran out of quarters to make up change for the ****.)

And I'm not hitting the bar tonight with those co-workers, I have to get up at 6am and I'm not about to drag my ass in insanely tired because I don't get off until 11pm/12am (17-18 hours.)

Indeedly so, even a person with strong skills can improve, and hopefully when I can actually start going out to pubs/bars and buying toys and goodies at stores and not being really restricted to a bland lifestyle, I can get the Docs Train moving.

Are all women you date mentally retarded with no ability to spell, punctuate, or split up run-on-sentences?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
