"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.

For the foreseeable future, anyway.

Last night I went out with my gf and all night she was moody and flighty and refused to communicate and changed her mind about what she wanted to do maybe 9 or 10 times.

Finally, it dawned on me: I don't need this bullshyt. I'm a well-off, reasonably handmose 23-year old guy. I shouldn't be doing anything that makes me unhappy.

It's like Epicurus said: the wise man seeks happiness and avoids unnecessary pain. Yoking myself to any one girl at this point can only produce unnecessary pain with no increase in happiness. So the next time I see her it's dumpsville for the gf and on to a better life.
 

"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.

So youre going to dump her because its that time of the month? It seems a bit shallow, perhaps its been something building. What you should have done is taken her ass home and left. It doesnt seem like shes causin you pain, she just seems to have irritated you. If she causes you so much pain you would have broken up with her before.

Well it's a little more complicated. She's been pushing for the relationship to get more serious (which is totally out of the question) and her flightiness has just been getting worse and worse in the five months we've been going out.

If she wants to get more serious and you're not ready then I think you're making the right move by breaking up with her. I just hope you do so in a gentle manner, even though you and she are clearly frustrated with each other.

Do you ever watch Caesar Milan? (The Dog Whisperer)? So many times he has said that dogs, (in this case, your girlfriend) take their cues from their masters (you). Maybe your (I'm guessing subconscious) doubts are exasperating her flightiness and need for more commitment. Just a thought. Sorry about the dog analogy but I figure it's something easily searched if you want to know more of what I'm talking about.

Dude, you're only 22. You should be hitting it and quiting it as much as possible. There is absolutely no reason for you to be in a monogamous relationship. None!

Right now you should be having the time of your life because when you get my age you will see exactly why. You really should be playing the field. If you had plenty of women chasing you, the LAST thing you would ever think of is a monogamous relationship because you'd be to worried about not having to get with all the ladies you meet when you're out partying with your buddies.

Don't waste your time at this age to be in a relationship. Hit it! Quit it!

Well I would have a talk with her about the relationship before making any rash decisions. If your not ready then tell her and see what happens, don't just assume she's well into the serious relationship as women often change their minds. Maryland is better than Virginia anyways so perhaps if you lived there then there wouldn't be any problems, lol jking

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
