"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.

Lately I've been feeling that if I don't schedule a date in advance, or make it known when we'll be going out (for example setting up on thursday for sat or sun) that they'll fill their schedule and/or forget about me -- especially if I don't text them at all during this time

I've been feeling like/tempted to check in with something funny during the in-between days, to keep them reminded of me.... especially the ones I've barely met/talked to so far, but want to go out.

How plausible is this fear? Would checking in be a bad move? How far and in between should you be contacting a girl in the initial meeting period... most likely with low interest?

I figure it's not a big deal and just my AFC bad habits of being a frequent texter/actually wanting to bond with women manifesting

Make it an interest test, if you have a date and she doesn't show up just forget her. If she forgot she's not interested enough, don't waste your time. No need to fill the days in between with pointless talk, no matter what you say on text it won't score any points before solid rapport is established.

You do respect yourself more than chasing a chick that forgets you and doesn't care right?
