"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.

anyone else have a problem where the girl your seeing wont go away and is completely crazy to the point where you gotta change your number?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Yes, I'm very familiar with that. I just learned that you cannot give your number to anyone. Especially 18 year olds. They get obsessed. Sending 7 text messages in a row without you saying a damn thing.

Well, the girls may be hot.. But when it gets to the point where the girl is contacting you so much that it's just plain annoying, it turns into a problem no matter how hot they are.

I've gotten 3 or 4 texts in a row sometimes without giving a response and I'm thinking "Doesn't she get the picture that I'm busy?"

Ugh. Yeah you're reminding me of the young girls I've dated.

A text conversation would be like:

Iceberg: What's up for tonight?
Girl: I'm still coming.
Girl: Just eating dinner now.
Girl: Spaghetti and meatballs!
Girl: Saw a movie that reminded me of you.
Girl: :)
Girl: u busy?


Now you know how girls feel when they get some clingy guy.

My most recent LTR was with a girl my age who owned her own house, made 2x more than me, and drove a Lexus. And every time I date one of these crazy young chicks, I always get the urge to call my ex like, "I'm sorry I dumped you. We can work this out!"
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Two girls currently do that to me. It takes them forever to get the message. Everytime I hear my alert for text messages on my phone I get pissed off just thinking it's those girls.

Funny how my recent girl was so crazy i was thinking the same thing about my ex.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

So, just to clear some things up.(I know this is probably just a similar example not a carbon copy of one) After you asked what was up and she said she was still coming, why did you not say something like "Okay, cool." or "See you later." Did she respond with the other text too fast before you could reply?

I was just wondering if you were just not responding out of being cool or if you were too busy or what. The being too cool thing only comes from the fact that YOU asked her what was up and after she responded I would think it to be rude to not at least aknowledge on your end.

If she just spazzed out and sent those other one's before you could that's a different story. I just think people can go over board with "being cool" with texting.

Yeah, this was more of an example than an exact conversation.

Realistically, I would text to confirm, "So, I'll see you at THIS Bar at 9pm." And basically, up until we got to the bar, I'd get 10-20 stupid texts about nonsense.

I wasn't not-responding to be cool. I'm just the kind of person who doesn't text unless there's something to say. So when you match me up with one of these text-addict girls, I start freaking out.

Like, I'd never text "What's up for tonight" as a random conversation. Because I don't do random conversation via text. I'm texting that because I'm literally asking "are our plans for tonight still on?"

The worst part is, I'm too cheap to get an unlimited text plan. So after the first 200 texts, I start getting charged per message. F**king young girls...

I'd rather have no girls then some crackhead ones who text and call all the time. Not a fan of stalkerish behavior.
