"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.

a philosophical question. I haven't yet established an opinion.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Oneitis- when you love a girl very deeply and she has no feelings back toward you other then friendship or less.

Love- when both people have mutual feelings of attachment and caring for each other. Usually followed by close physical attachment and bedroom games

Oneitis is unrequited lust.
Love is reciprocated.

Tommy rot, thats T.V talk and its usually the other way around if anything. Dudes who thought they were "in love" almost always realise they were not given time + sex + companionship with a chick equal to or better than the chick who he thought he was "in love" with.

I've posted this before and I'll post it again.

Love is the delusion that one woman differs from another.----H.L Mencken
"Oneitis" is the same thing just with a seduction community spin on it to give it a clearer explanation for those who are in the know.

Oneitis is a "want what you can't have"-based infatuation with a girl who doesn't want you. Anyone who says that's the same as "love" needs to get their head out of their ass and stop trying to spread this seduction community delusion that being anything more than a fvck buddy with a woman is never worth it.

That's not to say many guys (and girls, even in mutual relationships) confuse infatuation with love, which happens all the time.

This question is meaningless.

Like actually knowing the 'answer', if there is one, actually means anything.

You can't peg love down because it's subjective. Plus the fact that so many people who thought they were in love and realized later on that it wasn't exactly love says a lot about the way humans define love.

Give this love crap a rest. If you're happy being with someone, why should you care if it's love, lust, infatuation or just plain fun? Of course everyone would prefer you to be in love. Being with someone because of lust or for fun is a big no-no. Love just sounds so nice and so noble.

There is a difference between love and oneitis. Love sounds so much better than oneitis. However, the two could essentially describe the same thing.
