"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.

There's a girl I have a thing for and the last time I spoke with her 4 months ago she mentioned a boyfriend. She called me again recently and I need to find out if she is still seeing this guy and wasting my time or if she's a go.

What's the best way to work the question into the conversation?
One female friend of mine suggested just asking straight up "Are you seeing anybody right now?"
The other female friend said that was a bad idea.
I tried asking what's she up to these days and what she's doing for fun hoping she would bring him up again. Nothing yet. I've only spoken with her briefly since she reinitiated contact.

What do you guys think is the best approach? Blunt and up front or indirect?
 

"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.

well what I would say is so are you and that dude still together? just make it casual so it wont be embarassing. thats what I do. I guess either way could be good, its just I hate going up to girls and saying so are you single? to me it sounds kinda desperate.

If he hasn't come up in conversation, assume he's no longer with her and game on. Just go after her. Chicks don't want a guy who sits and waits for green lights, they want guy who runs red lights at 100 m.p.h. ;).

Four months is too long to think about a girl, why don't you just fvck the b!tch first and find out if she still has her boyfriend after that.

Actually, I wasn't really thinking about her for those four months. It's easy for me to dismiss a girl when she's not physically around and I know for sure she has a boyfriend. It's just that she contact me recently and asked if I wanted to catch a movie with her. That's when my interest re-ignited.

This isn't a club girl. She's fairly religious and it will probably take a bit before she'll just **** me (I'm not talking about a freakin' year though). I'm going to invite her out next weekend for dinner and a night on the beach. If she's down, then I'll assume that's a red light for me to run at 100 mph :D

Thanks for the advice...
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
