"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.

Well I've never been to homecoming before and I figure, what the f*ck it's my senior year and it's the last chance I'll have to go, so I'm going. But I wonder, is knowing how to dance really that important? Usually when I'm at dances I just do my own thing and improvise. And if knowing how to dance is important, are there any sites or videos I could look at to learn?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Every guy needs to know how to dance.

YES! Yes, for the love of Don Juan you must learn how to dance. The fact that I was the sole guy at my homecoming (and later prom) that actually knew how to dance helped me get so many girls. I had a blast just because I took a couple lessons.

What kind of dance really depends on the setting. If your school is doing a big traditionalist theme, then go with the music and learn Salsa (You can really adjust that to do anything) and more classical dances.
If it's just a standard dance with stuff like hip hop and the occasional slow dance, then watch Hitch and learn the two step. Good Luck!

Yeah, it's just gonna be like typical hip hop, pop and rock stuff. Although anyway I could learn for free? I really don't have the time or money to get that movie.

I graduated in 2006 and I still have girls asking me to go with them. I even get to have my pick of which one I want.i never really realized that until now.
