"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.

DJs, I need help with replying to this e-mail from my GF. I'm in a LTR with her but every now and then, she'll test me like the message below. She left for Boston and I got the following e-mail from her:

------------------------------------------------------------
Hi John. I have arrived in Boston. The weather has been decent so far. I've been enjoying my time with my family. I'll be coming back on a late flight next Thursday. As you have to get up for work on Friday, you don't need to pick me up.

Do you miss me? If so, how much do you miss me? You have to answer this question; otherwise ...
------------------------------------------------------------

How do I answer the last part of her e-mail? Perhaps with something vague? Perhaps something ****y & funny? What would you DJs do?

Thanks in advance.

"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.

"Otherwise what? I think I could take you 1 on 1.. bring it on. Great to hear that you're having a good time. You know where I'll be when you get back."

or

"Miss you? Actually, I've been so busy with the ten strippers I hired over the weekend, haven't had much time to think about it.. haha, come on, you know how I feel about you. See you when you get back."

Don't respond straight forward, whatever you do.
