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.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Yes, and what am I supposed to tell her?TheEdgeOf said:First of all, what's the problem? did she say no?
Second, don't tell her that you little sister was texting her, that's pvssy crap.

She rejected me, and now it's going to be awkward working with her. What can I do to fix this?sexy_kuta said:be a man, tell her u cant make it and you will make it up to her some day (but u wont)
yeah but did you work with the person?TheEdgeOf said:Uhh... don't let it be awkward. Just act like nothing happened. That's what I do when I get rejected and it works well.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Who cares? You messed up with the text, but who cares what she thinks? Just act like you normally would around her and i'm sure she will do the same.Kuwi said:yeah but did you work with the person?
she's not acting normal around me though, she wants nothing to do with me.TheBaconator said:Who cares? You messed up with the text, but who cares what she thinks? Just act like you normally would around her and i'm sure she will do the same.
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
Best advice.duke007 said:Indifference buddy. You can just go about your day-to-day activities and talk to others. Act like you don't care and within a week or two, you ACTUALLY won't care.
If anything she'll feel awkward! And she'll see you in a different light for being so cool about it.
This happened to me...I just played it cool and was my normal outgoing social self with everyone else. She went into her shell and avoided the group conversations. Guess who came out on top in the end?!
If asking a girl over a text is one step closer to being a dj than i dont know anything about this. No girl is gonna accept some ***** that cant ask a girl out atleast over the phone.Triple T said:lol like others have said already...CALM DOWN.
Okay:
1) you did nothing wrong (although I wouldn't recommend asking a girl out via texting but at least you did something)
2) forget about it, she rejected you now move on. It'll become easier as time passes so just act normal. Its ONLY going to BE awkward if your all nervous around her because of this. So dont' be.
3) Look on the positive side, it'll make you feel better. For instance, your one step closer to becoming a DJ![]()
