"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 screwed up with this girl. I told her how i felt about her, the whole nine yards. That she was the one for me. and now she says that she is not attracted to me, that there in no chemistry. and she is looking for other guys. She has been giving me mixed signals since i met her. I an a NICE GUY, so i think that that is not good for me. now she just wants to be friends, she said that i am like her best guy friend. i still want to be with this girl. do i just give it time, and hopefuly things will change, or do i just leave it at being friends. i don't want to loose this friendship either.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

a woman's point of view

Sorry to hear that things didn't go the way you thought they would. I know it's hard for a guy to tell a girl his feelings like that. I would say that you're best bet it to pull back a little. If you are really a nice guy, she will think of you when she's dealing with a jerk. She'll want that guy to be more like you. But you shouldn't tell her these things anymore. A woman needs to know that a guy being nice is going to stand the test of time. That means that you should be there, but not too emotionally available. Hope this helps.

Hell yeah you should move on...

Read the DJ Bible and go out there and meet a lot of chicks and try to get with them. Hell, go out and try to meet chicks before you even complete the Bible. It'll take your mind off of her. In all honesty, it doesn't seem like you're going to be able to get with her any time soon. Your only chance is to distance yourself from her and show her that all this isn't phasing you, and that you can do better.

Don't "wait" on this relationship. Continue to be interested in her but leave yourself open to meeting other women. I know it's hard when you've got your heart and mind set on one person. But you will regret having waited around if it doesn't work out. Try to go out with other women and let her know, through being friends, what she's missing out on by letting her see how well you treat other women. One thing that we women are notorious for is being jealous about what some other woman it getting. Do not end your friendship with her if you care about her.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

That is what i thought that i would do, but i just needed somemore confidece, i just wish that it would be easier to meet girls. I'm great with women once i get to know them, but getting there is the hard part for me. i'm the "shy nice guy"

Don't ask a woman for advice (C-Do).

Leave this girl alone - you are done!!!

Don't be a chump and be her friend - she doesn't want you to be around her!!!

I was in your exact same situation, & from the standpoint im at i'd say no girl is worth the chase once she sees you as a friend.

I Let go & now im with a much much much better girl.

Also when i was in your situation, I would read about sucess stories & feel despair, but if you work on your skill you'll find someone you like.

Never tell a woman this shyt - men don't initiate this type of convo - but chumps do!!!! Chumps always lose - even if they get the girl!!
