"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 i am a senior. this girl is a junior. i have a sociology class with her first period. from in class she seems really quiet. she has a myspace and it says shes single. id rate her an 8 on looks. so do i approach her from myspace like sending a friends request talking online... or should i try something in person. i saw her at a school event tuesday so that could be a conversation starter.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

In person is much more sincere than myspace, which comes across as an easy way out sometimes. Just sit by her in class and make small talk, she'll open up ;)

My bed, your girl.
Walk up to her in class and say "hey."
It's easier to have a good conversation outside of class though. Just get her to start talking and you'll be fine.
