"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.

Land of the boobs...
So last night my friend and i caught a bus together we saw this nice looking chick, between 1-10 i would rate her as a 7. I turned around and told her something like i regret not sitting in that seat since she was there (or something like that) my friend heard and told me that i could still go and sit next to the girl, i did not want to because i never tried hustling a chick in a bus before but if i backed down my friend would have thought i was a pvssy or something so i did it anyways. She was nervous and started blushing. I formed a conversation and then proceed to ask her basic questions. I soon found out she attended the same university as i did....go figure! later on in the conversation i asked for the digits since we were both going the same universities it seemed okay to me, she replied "I don't give my numbers out to stranger"____? in my mind i was like what the deuce! but i did not care anyways. I probably wasn't even going to call her if i got it. I reached my destination and got the hell out of the bus. When i did i saw like disappointment on my friends face.
I thought i did okay? did u guys think so?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

**** your friend man. I get the impression you just did that for him. You should have talked that girl because you wanted to get to know her, not because you were afraid of disapointing your friend; she probably picked up on this.

Dude you asked for her number and got rejected = success.
Realize that everything you do to expand your comfort zone is a win.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Weekend nights at my college the busses are always packed with drunk-ass kids and its freaking awesome. I actually got a girls # on the bus once. I texted her saying "hey this is _____ from the bus last night. Haha I'm not as sketchy as that sounds."

She didn't respond but it was still a win. How many guys can say they got a number on the freaking bus.

The drunk bus ride is a surprisingly great way to meet girls, especially when its really crowded because everyone is smooshed together and its so easy to casually strike up a conversation with girls. The environment is so positive and everyone is in a good mood and excited to go out and party.

I think this weekend I'll skip the parties and just stay on the bus lol :D
