"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.

Is this Woman Interested in Me?

Recently, I've noticed that a female student at my university has been smiling at me and giving me direct eye contact when I walk past her on campus, and I have smiled back at her and said hello twice as well. One time she and I ran into each other twice in the computer lab. I looked at her straight in the eye, to see if she would look away when our eyes meet, but she looked back into my eyes and said, smiling, "See ya."


Interestingly, she's a student I myself have noticed as well and quite pretty. I just haven't found her in the right environment so far to talk to her. I'm ready for her and both of us seem to be playing the same game...she knows it. I've noticed that when she sees me sitting in a particular row at the computer lab at school, she too comes and sits on the same row, even though not directly near me. Matter of fact, I'm seeing her as I write this, but she's focused on typing a paper and there's losts of students sitting around her, so now might not be the best time. I'm not worried. The next time we run into each other face to face, I'm not letting her go without trying to get her number. My only concern though is that I've seen her so far talking to a lot of the student athletes at school-basket ball players, etc. I'm a graduate student and one of the few black males at my university, a private Catholic university. This particular female student seems to be Hispanic. Most of the white female students at my university, based on personal experiences and accounts from others, aren't very receptive at all to being approached by black males, so I pretty much prefer looking outside of school for hook ups. Anyway, we'll see how things go.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

It's hard to tell.

I get eye contact and smiles from like 3 different chicks a day at my college.

To me, it's just a nice gesture in a good college atmosphere.

I approach a couple of these nice smile/eye contacts before but they haven't gotten me anywhere besides a friendship.

You have to read more into their body language: it's not just eye contact and smile y'know.

Re:

Trouble Maker, I don't appreciate your response at all. You don't know anything about my prior dating history, nor do you know me personally, so don't judge me. To IamRambo, thank you for sharing your thoughts.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
