"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.

Great line from Good Looking Loser that's better than the standard "come over to my place for a drink."

He tells chicks instead: "I'm a bartender. Come over to my place and let me fix you a drink."

Or you could tell chicks if you think they're going to ask: "Where are you a bartender?"

"I'm taking an online course for bartending. Come up to my place and let me fix you a drink."

It sounds like a better/ different twist enticing line as it gives the chick an excuse/ puts them at ease that "you're a bartender and that's why it's ok to come over to your place to fix her a drink" rather than just telling them to come over for a drink.
 

"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.

Some dudes may get tired or don't feel comfortable with the standard line and it does put a twist on it as the chick may just be more apt to say yes as "you're a bartender".

After all. You could be a bartender. In your apartment..

Relax. It's just a different twist to telling a chick to come over for drinks. Some dudes may prefer it. Some may not. No need to get all worked up about it.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
