"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 broke up with my ex over a month ago and have never heard from her since. We don’t have friends in common.

My ex’s best friend, who I met one time, six months ago, for maybe an hour, and NEVER had a conversation with before; called me on the 4th of July weekend. I found it weird and didn’t pick up. Then she called again on Monday asking me to help her with her workouts (I’m a personal trainer). She said she’s reached a plateau and would like to try some new exercises. I said I could probably help her on Sunday for an hour or so.

I honestly don’t know if this girl wants something else from me or if she is just trying to find out stuff about me to relate it to my ex. My ex has a new guy now (reason she never called again) and don’t think she would be interested in finding out stuff about me.

In anycase, this would have been a great opportunity to hit on her friend and get even…but my ex once mentioned her friend’s got some VD. Won’t even try this option….

I’m not planning to talk about my ex with this girl, nor I will be an open book (NEVER AGAIN)…

If my ex is behind all this and they are both up to something…
What could she actually get from all this??? A friend suggested she no longer has me on her lap and is now trying to see what I’m up to… but I’m not planning to hint her best friend on anything and if she brings the subject I’ll say we came to workout, that’s all.

ANY DIFFERENT VIEWS??

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

Get HONEST...

the entire track of your post is about gamesmanship. What do YOU want? What is RIGHT for YOU? Six months out and you are still wondering. Now that's human nature but realize that to worry about the gamesmanship is NOT moving on and doing what's RIGHT for you. In this situation, simply do what's right for you. What's REALLY right and not's what's right in the context of this past relationship.


Regards

Mike

Indeed.

Stop reading into sh!t and worrying about it. If you want to chase this skank, then do it. But she's got VD, so my guess is you don't want to. In which case, just give her some advice and be friendly.

Well you have decided you aren't having sex with her because of the VD. So just avoid the issue - don't call her back. If she ever gets ahold of you tell her you have enough clients.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Are you sure she has a VD? I'm just saying maybe the ex said that so you wouldn't think of banging her while you two were together. Anyway, help her out if you want to, just don't be a pawn in someone's game...

darth yoda!

You may be right! she may not have a VD after all... In any case, I will play it by ear on Sunday...

The only thing I can do is not to talk about anything else, other than "fitness" with this girl...and make sure I look happy and relaxed.

We'll see what happens!
