"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 became a drunk/jerk/loser for a period of time. I don't really have a comeback story, I just stopped making an a$$ out of myself. Has anyone else gone through something similar?
 

"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.

Big Time.

I got dumped many years ago (in rather ****ed up circumstances), began drinking and smoking. I quit my job and sat around unemployed.

Eventually my best mate snapped me out of my malaise. made me move in with him and get another job.

But I was so cut by that girl and bitter I could not attract another. I started to resent my very friend who was helping me coz he was ****ing a different chick every night.

Eventually a trip overseas and some truly terrfying **** that put things in perspective snapped me out of it.

But yeah, I've been absolutely floored by a woman.

i was in a 3 yr relationship, so obviously it was a oneitis. Ive never cheated on a girl and never will thats just not me. But i have no problem dating and banging multiple girls when im not "taken".
We broke up, and it got pretty bad. I started drinking alot, and lost a lot of my confidence. I tried approaching a few girls, and realized i lost a lot of my game over the 3 years i was with her, as she turned me somewhat back to my highschool afc days. So finally, i hit the gym, and lost a bunch of weight. Seeing myself in the mirror, and seeing the scale show lighter and lighter week by week, started to boost my confidence. I started reading on here again, and started drinking less. Now almost 5 months later ive lost 32 lbs, and can approach practically any girl and get her number. Now im dating 4 girls, 2 of them 7's, 1 and 8, and one what i consider a 9.5 I swear to god, shes just a little flaky, but shes young. At one point i was talking to 11 girls, but ive nexted a shlt ton of them here lately. Whats funny is the ones i havent talked to in a few weeks start calling again. Its crazy. Im out with one girl and the phone starts ringing. And we all know what that does :rockon:
Im finally where i want to be, im having more fun right now than i ever have in my life. I look my best, and getting even better every day, i feel great and im loving my life.
Funny thing is, i saw my ex a few days ago (havent seen her or talked to her in 6 weeks). She left me for some short fat guy. Beats me why, only thing i know is that shes fu*king crazy. So she saw how i changed, and literally got pissed off. Not my problem anymore. I think its hilarious. :crackup:
