"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.

alright, I've known this girl since her freshman year. she didn't like me because I used to like her older sister. and she made to fact known. sometimes even teasing me about it. then one summer, after her sister graduated, she added me as a friend on facebook and to my surprise, i accepted. i didn't ask her about it because i thought she just wanted to increase her number of friends. then second semester, i saw a little change in attitude, just like most people in my school she calls me by my last name. but we were alone(she spoke first).then ask her to sign my yearbook she was a little hesitant but she signed it. i graduated so i didn't see her. at church however, she called by my first name. she has a unique personality and i've been called that too. i guess i still have competition with some other guys. here is some other information. she had this friend i happen to pay more attention too and i asked her out and the friend un friended me on facebook. those two aren't friends anymore for some reason.

i've seen her last night at the game. so i said hi and she said it back but nothing else.
maybe i've been over-analyzing things.
 

"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.

Yeah, you are. Seems like not very much has happened.

Make something happen, or go find another girl. Preferably both at once. Don't be scared, even mistakes pay off for you sometimes.
