"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Just when you think everything is good and closure has created relief from an ex, they sure know how to throw a grenade in your path.

Long story short, a year ago today, I proposed to my then girlfriend of 2.5 years. We broke up 8 months ago in February.

The breakup was clean, after a long argument I asked for the ring back. We tried several times to talk about the situation in the first 2 weeks after the breakup but I quickly got to the point of walking away and going strict No Contact.

The only contact we've had since was dealing with her as she was paying me back on my half of an entire house full of furniture that we bought together for our new house (That she bought).

Long story short, I woke up today to the following text message:

"Regardless of what our status is, in my mind today is always going to be our anniversary and the day you gave me the ring of my dreams".

When I first read it, I honestly got nauseous. Then I got pissed. Now I'm just like WTF???

Why would I drop the 3 chicks I am dating and spinning now to go back to something that she felt so strongly of walking away from?

I dont think its even a good idea to make her a plate at this point.
 

"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.

Don't read into it. Means nothing.

Anyone can send a text. It's easy. Actions over words buddy.

Unless she truly hates your guts, women always like to know they can have you again if they decide to change their mind.

Respond and you're just showing her you're a good little beta who will fall in line and be ready once she gets tired of fvcking the guy she is currently with or he dumps her. Don't be that dude.

That's why I say let these b1tches call. Text is fine for dollar amounts and small little data details.

It's just too easy for them to feel they got you on the hook or for a shot of attention. Get her used to your voice and looking to hear it.
