"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.

How many times should you call b/f giving it up

Just started at college in Milwaukee and I LOVE it...OK, the city's a little run down and ghetto, but I've gotten my fair share of numbers so far (that, and I had a pretty cute neighbor over for about 45 minutes yesterday)

Just want to get one rule straight with calling (as I've got about 4 to work through right now). You call on the correct day after you get the #, then follow the same formula if you get voicemail, but should you give up and leave a message after attempt 2 or 3?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

You mean being Italian is not helping you on this one? LoL.

There are no rules. You call a day or two after getting her number, leave a message, wait for her call. If she doesn't call back, there might not be high enough interest in her part. You can call her one more time, and leave a message. She knows you like her, and there should be no shame in that, so ALWAYS leave a message.

You need to be too busy with other babes to even worry about the ones that don't call back.

Actually its a pretty simple rule.

Sit down with an 8 ball, and for each number give it a shake. Do what is says.

I have to agree with Gangster of Love here in that there are no rules. Do what you want. If she is into you, she will not care when you call and she will make herself available for you. The only thing I would advise trying to avoid, especially early on, is showing too much interest too fast. You want her interest level higher than yours. After all, you are doing her a favor taking time out of your busy life to spend time with her.

I've heard those can help sometimes. Where would I get one?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Are you a Prince fan? Im seeing more and more posters on here with names coming from Prince songs.

Anyways, if she doesnt call back, you can leave her some totally obnoxious funny voicemail, and see if she bites. If not, sit on her number, and maybe a month from now, send out a mass text to all your flaked numbers about some party you're going to, and see who shows up. I still stand by this article here:

I call once, if I get put on voicemail, I leave a message, if she replies, great, if she doesn't that's hard luck, but there's plenty more women out there.

^^cosign. one time with a message is all you need. A woman carry that phone around like a priest with a bible. She know you calling
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Yep (I just moved here from Minneapolis, anyway). Prince is a badass.

Was that like a trick question? The answer is once. I don't even know anyone anymore that has a land line. Every one has a cell phone. The thing about cell phone is that you can carry them anywhere. If the person you call doesn't answer it means they are in a situation that doesn't allow it at the time, they are on another line and ignoring the call waiting, or they are screening their calls.

You call one time, whenever the hell you want (there is no correct day), and if they don't answer you leave a message and tell them to call you back. They don't return your message, it's their loss.:up:
