"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.

here's the situation
we dated for a few months. she always liked this guy, they dated for a few months too but he lost interest. this was a year ago, and she never completely got over him. but when he got together with someone else she "seriously will try to get over him now"

then we started hanging out, and we were really hitting it off. i really never understood if she got over him. but they had some drama and got in a fight. good for me, ya know? but when the guy and his girl broke up, he kept saying he wanted a gf. i never really asked her out, as i was planning for her to initiate the "talk." hmmm...?

then when me n my girl were hanging out one time i guess i did a little too much kino cuz she got kinda freaked out and told me. then the old guy started makign a move on her, and she started to talk to me less and less and felt weird around me while she and the guy is beginning to rise in interest level.

so basically, what do i do now?
senior year is approaching. summer is here. what can i do to get her off my mind for now? and what can i do to reraise her interest level for later? and i was planning this summer to be better. like more organized, more responsible, more of everything, trying to change.
and this is terrible timing. i feel like crap. and i dont think i can focus for a while. i dunno what to do because i want to set myself straight and go for my goals for the summer.

thanks.
 

"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.

*sigh*

Dude, there's loads of women out there. Why get so hung up on this one? "spin some plates" as Rollo Tommasi'd say.

find new girls. if she really likes you then she'll initiate contact again, but don't let her get to you so easily.

Pursuing a new girl will do three good things for you. 1) Help you get over her. 2) If this girl knows that other girls are after you, then it will make you more attractive to the one you want. 3) Success with another girl will make you more confident (attractive to the girl you want).

Another good bit of advice to is act like you don't care. I was told this by someone I'd consider a Don Juan.
 

"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.
