"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 to make friends?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I recommend that you read Dale Carnegie's How To Win Friends and Influence People. I haven't read it yet but I've heard great things about it.
I read this book when I saw it lying around my house. But then I stopped because, I already do all of the things the book says naturally. It's just I have a different problem, it's just with the opposite sex, with the hot girls. But yeah, read the book it should give you an idea of how to be friends with people and make them have a better outlook about you.
Good luck man and if you decide to read the book, think of it as a road map because some of the chapters in the book are a bit iffy.

Well you have to get out there and meet people. Seriously. If you are a cool guy and you are meeting a lot of people, then there is no way you can't make friends. Get a hobby, go to some school clubs, get into the school sports teams, just meet as many people as possible.

You want to do something with people outside of school, get their numbers, invite them out for a drink or something like that, or wait until you are accepted into a social circle and they will start inviting you out.

This is the easy part, the hard part is being someone who has social value to give to a group of friends and not being someone who will just drain value. on't be depressed, be upbeat, sociable and fun. Get confident.
