"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.

alright so im gonna give this chick a call that I met... when I left her the other night I invited her out wednesday night for my friends and her friends to go to Dave and Busters... so tomorrow im gonna call and re-confirm the outing.... I asked her if she needed a ride and she said Yes, but then again I really don't want to pick her up so I'm hoping her friends are going to take care of her there......

here is what i have so far in the phone convo:

hey wassup this is monty...

you still down for tonite?

are your friends going too?

so you have a ride to go there right?

yea it'll be fun tonite....

well im gonna let you go now... call me up if you need a ride, if not i'll see u
there... alright... bye

Anything to add/remove? I just want to keep it short n sweet.
 

"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.

That is way too much, and too insecure.

Call her and tell her you will pick her up at 8PM (or whatever), and to wear that dress you like. ;)

Then don't call her again until you are on your way.

Way way too much. Sentences like that gives her the opportunity to actually think over and create doubts.

ONE LINE!

You don't ask what time to pick her up, you TELL her what time you are picking her up. Stop acting like a little girl.

If you don't want to pick her up... don't pick her up! Why post a thread about a chick you don't want to pick up? You don't pick her up = you aren't that interested.

Stop being wishy washy.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Like you said, you only met this girl for a few hours. Do you want a nervous phone convo or a date? A date right! CUT TO THE CHASE.

If you still don't know what to say, go with Iqqi's first post.

Just call and confirm that your meeting at X time. Don't mention anything about the ride. Assume that she will get their with her friends. If she doesn't have a ride, let her bring it up. If thats the case, then pick her up, its not the end of the world.
