"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.

I think it's flattering and frankly feels good for a while to get that much attention from a woman. But it has no intrinsic value. She doesn't even know you. She is just infatuated with the idea of you; or with some aspect of your personality that is novel for her.

It's a good practice in life not to take anything too personally, both positive and negative.
 

"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.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

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.

Yes it does feel good for a while then goes south sooner or later. I'd rather mess around with these clingy types than the single mothers. Another thing about these clingy women is that they run their mouths about you excessively to friends and what not.

Thanks guys, good insight and good input.

I have to admit I'm kind of f*cking with her mind right now, running a jealousy plotline between her and another chick I've been seeing for years but who recently dumped me because I wouldn't marry her, although we remain friends.

I don't really know why I'm doing it. Ever played a sport against someone who was really bad and you ran up the score just because you could? Kind of the same feeling here.

When I was new to the game, I would do 5hit just to see what I could get away with. Getting kisses from other girls while I was on a date, having two girls I was dating in the same room together, treating them like 5hit, etc. The funny thing is all of that didn't deter them from being attracted. If anything, it made them even MORE attracted.
