"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 the hell should I respond?

Had some interest in this girl a while back.

Long story short: nothing really came out of it.

Deleted her from social networking sites, etc.

A few days ago got a random text from her: "Why did you delete me off Facebook, ass?"

Still haven't responded and I don't know if I should.

Ideas?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I got a killer line up my sleeve in these situations.

Just say: "do I know you?". If she's an AW, that line drives them nuts and they will go into a self-righteous tirade like only a woman could!

LOL, that does seem like a strange thing to do.

As far as a response, how about: "Dunno, I suppose u can add me back ;)". If she does, you've got the frame and can take it from there.

The way to fail this encounter is to add her back yourself.

@dap as soon as she found out she already sent me a friend request trying to add me back.
 

"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.

Then respond: "I dunno. Should I accept ur request? ;)"

Make her say yes.

Edit: In general, I wouldn't delete people from Fb. Seems kind of reactionary. If you don't want to see their shiit anymore, just block them from your newsfeed.

Easy, you knock her down with the truth. Tell her "I don't like keeping people on my list that don't talk to me".

The attention whoring from girls on social media sites is out of hand. Fųckin A!

Seems petty and reactionary = bad idea.
 

"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.

This is tricky, you can't get emotional in texts but she swore at you, where is Harry W when you need him.

I would stay away from anything ****y and funny. Perhaps a text back "Watch your language when you are talking to me. You ignored my calls a while back, didn't see any reason to keep you on."
