"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.

My girl today said that she gets it in her head sometimes that I might be texting and messaging other girls.

I've given her no reason to think that what so ever, always been totally honest and our relationship is great (and I havent been messaging other women)

She isnt being a ***** about it or anything like that, she just gets abit silent sometimes and she said that its been on her mind on and off for a while.

Things at her home arnt good for her atm either.

How do I reassure her? Or should I?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

If you're doing nothing wrong and shes insecure. It's not your fault, so in theory its her problem. But as human beings we all have insecurities so sit her down and ask whats up, since you've done nothing wrong you should be able to answer all her worries confidently and once you get up, draw a line under it. If it comes up again, then its an issue.

first I would ask are you 2 serious? if yes you already said no? then why you should prolong this talk? if she still feels insecure nothing you say will amke it go, and most here will say it good he have some insecurity that means she is a little afraid to lose you, and whatever others say ITS A GOOD THING, if hse is afraid to lose you she will not do things who will push her lucky on that, if you are doing nothing wrong then just drop it.

I'm in exactly the same situation and it's very tiresome. We've been exclusive for a year but she still mentions regularly how she can't sleep because she thinks I'll dump her at any moment.
I admit that I've used dread game on her but only at the start and stopped doing it when I could see she was getting really upset.
I guess I should be flattered that she thinks I could still go out and get another chick but I just can't seem to prove to her that I'm only interested in her. Oh well, it may keep her on her toes but sometimes I get the feeling she's using this bullsht to one day use as an excuse to break up.
Aren't women great?.....

If she's having these types of thoughts or questions... GOOD JOB!!

It means you're doing such a good job as a boyfriend that she's actually insecure about the job SHE'S doing as a girlfriend, to the point that she fears you may be looking elsewhere. It's all in her head, but it's a GOOD thing for you. Why? As long as a woman feels, on some level, that you COULD, in fact, go out and find other girls to flirt with, it will always keep her on her toes and make her continuously work to keep your affection.

So, would I reassure her? Heck no! You know how this works: the more you tell a girl you're NOT doing something, the more she thinks you're doing it. Me, I'd make a joke out of it:

Her: Are you messaging other women?
Me: Of course I am!
Her: You are??
Me: Absolutely! But hey, if it's making you jealous, I'll tell my Mom and my sisters to stop contacting me so much ;)

Or:

Her: Sometimes I think you might be text messaging other girls
Me: Really? Hmm, interesting... do you have a twin sister I don't know about? 'Cause if she's even half as good as you, I'm all for messaging that cutie ;)

Bottom line: don't take what she says seriously, and don't answer it seriously either. It's her issue, so don't even act like it's on your radar. Hope this helps!
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Roll with the punches ... Neg her playfully about it and reassure her with your actions not your words.

Use insecurity and dread game sporadically.I t begins to lose effectiveness and she will begin firing back if you are doing it more than necessary. 90% of the time, the girl will win that shootout.

If a girl is just one of your plates, then fine, let her think you're in contact with other women.

In a relationship though, it's just another complication and potential fight.

An easy way around this is that when you're home, just leave your phone on the table and when a message comes through, now and then ask her to grab it for you.
