"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.

She is desperately seeking attention from you, interesting how no contact works. Don't give her that attention, let her soak up these feelings of "abandonment," not to get revenge per se, but more punishment. You currently control the situation, the relationship, as it should be. You need to MAINTAIN it. Do not back down.

When you contact her again in a few days, be indifferent and aloof. Make HER work for the relationship and don't go back to your old ways.

You contacted her and didn't hear what you want to hear because you broke No Contact. Move on and choke this up to the female imperative. Live and learn from this experience

"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.
