"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'm Evil and should be destoryed.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

The Inside Man - I'm PuertoRican_Lover, salsa is not foreign to me, although I prefer Merengue.
I'm on your side, and wish you the best; thus; my warning to you youngsters!
Dancing is a hyper-emotional state, the flashing lights on the dance floor contribute to this state, by design.
Seek the long lasting over the temporal - love is long lasting - eternal!!

The problem with defining love is in the classifying, qualifying and quantifying it. It's a lot like saying "what is art?", "I dunno, but I know what I like." Bear in mind that anything can become normal, and all the sh!t men say they'll never tolerate from a woman when single are exactly the behaviors they're conditioned to appreciate (and accept) as her endearing little quirks when they become emotionally involved.
My interpretation of love is simple. There are no classifications for the feeling. All this agape, fraternal, erotic, etc. qualifications are simple lame attempts to define behavior. Love has elements of emotivity, behavioral sets and spirituality of course, but all of these are just manifestations of the same motive. There is no agape love, no erotic love, these are just behaviors and expressions of love not sub-types of love. The same love you feel for your mother, father, sister or brother is the same you feel with a GF, a spouse, the HB 8 you're infatuated with, and the hot piece of ass you banged last night - you simply expressed that love in a different way. I love my mother & daughter intensely, but I ƒuck my wife. It's my manifestation of love that's different. I love my best friend Derek, but I don't ƒuck him, I express that love in other ways. It's not a different feeling, it's a different expression.
When people classify and qualify love they do so because it serves their purpose. This may be profit, this may be insecurity, but whatever the reason it narrows the scope of love. I believe that God is love as well, but God and love are far bigger than our capacities for expressing it. When we insist on pigeonholing, categorizing and forcing our abilities to manifest love on people while saying "this is what love ought to be" we insult the universality of love.

I have a confession to make - I don't know how to salsa.Señor Fingers said:
It's too much work - and the songs are long - it's like a job, too strenuous, more than a dance. Salsa originated in Cuba - Puerto Ricans took it over, commercially, because Cuba.has been isolated.Inside Man, woman always use the "love" word, always!!! Many times it is said to manipulate the male and to seek his loyalty. Our job, as men, is to determine whether her love is genuine - by testing her love through her actions/behavior, and not her words. I think you need to better know when it is genuine, sincere. Love is not expressed through the mouth - it is seen in her heart, and manifested in her actions towards you, for the long term!!
Also, she should not just show love towards you, but towards others as well! She should show love to others who she expects nothing from - this is the real test that reveals her heart and true intentions!
"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.
