"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.

OK, so I had to stay after school the other day and I was in the cafeteria. The cheerleaders were in there practicing. Then the girl I have a crush on walked in and joined the other cheerleaders. Well, I never really see her anywhere else around school, so this is pretty much my only shot to talk to her. [There are football games, but when I went to the one last Friday I noticed she was never alone. (When she had breaks from cheering she was hanging out with the other cheerleaders.)]

So, my problem is this: I don't know how I could approach her (I think it'd be best at practice, at the game she's with other girls and I don't think I could even get to her anyways), don't know what to say, do, etc.

I'd appreciate any help. If it matters, I'm 16. :)
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Hot chicks are rarely alone. If you want to talk to an attractive chick (especially at school or in a social setting) expect to have to deal with her friends also.

There are plenty of ways you can approach her. Do a search and look around on the forum. Chances are you'll find something you like or that fits your situation. Don't think you need an opener though. You can always just walk up and talk to her and her friends.

The two of you don't have classes together or take the same class at different times do you?

I wouldn't think so. She's a senior and I'm a junior.

It sounds difficult to do, talk to a popular girl who is a year older and you have no classes with her.

My advice is to put her on the back burner and game other chicks, I know you have a crush on her but just forget that for a while and game easier girls.

Leave this one up to chance, ex. a good oppertunity to approach her
Not a perfect oppertunity, but a good oppertunity. Guys spend years waiting for that perfect oppertunity that will never come.


Because I dunno about your high school but in my high school, walking up to her and her friends and trying to talk to them wouldnt fly for a second. You gotta know at least a couple of them or you will come off as fcking weird.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
