"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 look decent in regular pics but if I can get a professional to really maximize my appearance, I should have a decent shot with online dating. My best friend found an awesome girl online and he is 5'5. Surely I can find someone being 5'10?

For you guys who do OLD and make a lot of money, do you put your income on there? have you had good success one way or another? The way I see the income thing is that it may attract gold diggers, but it will also be very appealing to professional women who make good money themselves (which is my goal ofcourse).
 

"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.

Put it up.

~$150K/yr. is the kind of money that will appeal to professional/well off types as their equal more so that it will attract gold diggers. True gold diggers aim higher than that.
that's what I'm thinking also

I would love to date a chick like say who does marketing and makes 80k a year. We would be balling out of control. Talking about 200 to 250K total income household and I live in a cheap area

The potential is there to go higher. The "Uptown girl" I met makes roughly twice as much as I do right now. If we were to go that distance, we'd have a total household income of about $400-$500K/yr.

Just stop looking at your money from a provider perspective. Think of it as complimentary.
I try to be good at everything man

my problem is I just can't get any good opportunities with cute women who fit my requirements to showcase my abilities. I have no doubt in my mind that any girl who spends a lot of time around me will like me quite a bit

I'd get a good professional headshot. Something classy. I think that's really useful as a first OLD or Tinder pic, it's very difficult to get a decent headshot from group photos or selfies.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
