"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.

I got her a Christmas present this week because she will be out of state seeing family. Now she is insistent on buying me one even though I've told her I don't want one.

She asked for my house address but I insisted she doesn't. Now she's upset I won't let her buy a present for me. Lol. How can you get mad because I don't want a present. Women...
 

“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.

What do you do for hobbies or fun? Have her pay for something in regards to that.

Worst case scenario it'll save you money in the short term.

sounds stupid (on your part)
 

"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.

Go NC on this one, by letting her get you a present you are submitting your frame to her and serving your balls on a platter.

If you accept this, believe me while you're receiving gifts she's taking it in the a$$ from her milk man.

How you figure exactly, Konada?



3 months membership to your gym (A year if you go to planet fitness). Give her the address. Later when you dump her tell her your going to the gym.

I get you probably have a logical reason behind it. But you gotta let woman do woman things.

Guys wtf is wrong with you. If she wants to buy him a present then where's the problem? That later she might request a present aswell?
Don't buy her anything anymore then.

Let her do whatever she wants, you're always the winner in the end.

We never really grew up celebrating Christmas with presents and it's just something I've never done. I only got a present for her because she asked for one. I don't need anything and I just see it as a waste of time and money. No offense to those that celebrate Christmas like that.

I second this notion :D you should next her immediately before she can damage your life .

Let her invest, its better this way since she will justify gifting you as a sence that you are worth it ( of course you are). If it bothers you, oh well.

Doesn't matter if it's Christmas or the middle of July, she owes you one and is trying to pay you back. You should be thankful she is high enough quality to want to do that.

The only suspicious thing here is that you bought her a gift with no expectation of getting anything in return. Kind of sends a, "You're more important than me" vibe.
 

"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.

I see no problem with receiving gifts from a woman or giving one to a woman who has earned it. My thing is keep the two independent of each other. In other words if a woman buys me a gift that doesn't necessarily mean I buy her one. Or if I buy her one I don't expect one in return.

The OP explained he got her a gift because,

I got her a Christmas present this week because she will be out of state seeing family
So sounds like she didn't do anything and it's a random Christmas gift. In which case why would he reject a gift in return? I don't get it

You could just make the issue disappear by accepting it but not commenting much on it. Which in turn is slightly rude so it's a good power play on your part.

Maybe she just was raised well and feels guilty for not reciprocating.

But you can also follow Sosuave posters' advice, dump her, stop masturbating and start meditating in a cave.
