"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.

U see...part of being a DJ for me is to occasionally let my inner child out. Thats what keeps me interested in MYSELF.
This is my nuts, feelings, work, pride, friends, and unfortunately my family.

You see...i can have...it all...at the expense of others.

Unfortunately... The scales tip one way or the other. The balance comes when you understand you have to give a little.

But its not cookie cutter easy as we see on tv...media...others...its all of us doing it to each other.


So find ur role and improve on it.

I live in the real world and i know im gonna get screwed but i eat shyt and like it. Cuz the pattern is...we all get our turn around the merry go round.

Guys...just drop the act of who u are and start really appreciating the people in your lives. Cuz get what.. If we get to type on here...we are in the top percent. Make it happen.
 

"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.
