"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 am more a moderate extrovert, I am fine with being outgoing and chasing hoes for fun and sitting back and doing nothing as long as i don't get to the point of cabin fever. I recently figured out that most of buddies who are guys are more introverted and don't like going out. I find this detrimental because i don't want to be the weird guy at the bar by myself. I know my obvious solution is get more extroverted guy friends. Is there anyway that i can get this guys more motivated? or should I go alone, because i feel like this is massively holding me back.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

After a certain age I've learned that some people want to go out and some people don't. There isn't much changing their basic attitude towards bars and clubs. If someone knows (or thinks) they don't like social places like that it's hard for them to change their perception. It's as bad as you staying at home!

Keep them as friends since, in my opinion, the old friends who knew you when are important, but find another crew to go out with. You may have to start out as the weird guy at the bar alone.

You should go out alone and make new friends who like going out. You can make those friends at the club/bar or even using this site. Being able to go it alone is valuable. I went out alone on Halloween last year. I made friends that night.

You'll meet tons of new people if and when you go out. This option is better than staying in or being dependant on waiting for others to show up.

You may even find so much more in common or deeper connection with these other new people than your friends. There is a ton of benefits to going out sarging alone.

You won't be the weird guy alone at the bar. You'll be the confident guy out living his life and doing what he wants to do, making things happen and being in the party. That's cool. So go for it man.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
