"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.

HB8 initiates on Tinder. Her profile states she is 5'9 and likes her men to tower over her. I am 5'11. Anticipating her to ask my height at some stage I decide to pre-emptively disqualify her.

Her: How's your weekend going?
Me: Hey. What you up to?
Her: JUst a quiet one. Few dinners. You?
Me: You seem pretty cool but I'm not going to waste either of our time. I see you are 5'9 and in heels you would be around my height and I like to be taller than my date.
Her: Thanks for letting me know. Yes I like taller men.

Now it's one thing lying about my profession but should I lie about my height?
Or should I just not have mentioned it?
 

"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.

What the women don't know won't hurt them, the stupid things guys say will hurt them.

I make a KILLING off tinder. I am 5'8" and could give a fvk if a woman is taller then me. All the same laying down right? :up:

I would not of even said anything. If she asked you could easily add an inch or two. If your 5"11 just say your 6 foot. When you meet up she is not going to say anything.

That seemed rather harsh. I've got a friend and there's this one thing I've always admired about how he handles people. No matter what he says or what game he plays, he ALWAYS leaves the door open and you slammed them shut. Hard. I doubt that was your intent.

Sounds like self-sabotage. If Bradley Cooper was 5'11" she'd change her tune or just wear flats on their dates.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
