"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.

One of the girls I met, we actually became pretty good friends and she would play wingman for me at times. However after some fallout (stupid drama) I stopped hanging out with her and went NC Even when she would invite me out.

I haven't seen her in about 6-7 weeks now and I'm wondering whether to break NC to wish her happy birthday. If so then how should I phrase it? Just "happy birthday" or "hey beautiful happy birthday" or "happy birthday, hope its a good one."

We actually ended up become good friends for that short period of time, so I need to know how to proceed in this situation. Please assist. I'm thinking I shouldn't break NC, but I also have nothing against her inside so I don't know for sure. Guide me one way or another and please provide an explanation.

Thank you all!

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Do whatever you want, you don't need approval from a bunch of Internet strangers.

I do need approval because I don't want to do something that will make me look or feel weak afterwards. Plus this is why we come here to get advice before taking questionable action. I'm questioning it and I'm sure the experts here can provide support for or against my actions.

We all know that in certain situations, guys don't think straight. This may be one of them for me.

You are over thinking it. Do you feel like it will make you look or feel weak afterwards? Then don't do it. But if you can come out of it feeling awesome and even learn a thing or two, full steam ahead.

If you like this girl make passes at her, try to kiss her. MAKE HER NC YOU... if anything. You are just being an AFC not letting her know how you feel about her. If you are going to go for her, have expectations make sure she is making you happy.

As far as her bday goes you need to make a decision on whether you are going to go for this girl or not. If the answer is yes, then contact her and try to set something up. If the answer is no, then leave her alone you will just confuse her.

If the idea is just to wish her a happy bday and resume NC then don't contact her at all.

If you have no feelings for this girl then what are you doing here exactly? Leave her alone!

I tried this recently and she didn't even thank me. Besides, Facebook ruined birthdays forever now that everyone gets a reminder and girls get 2000 birthday greetings yet pretend they are really that popular.
