"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

So, today I was texted by a girl and how her friend is asking if i was spanish(i dont even know this girl, but she saw a pic of me in a friends phone). Note: This girl texted me using the cellphone of the girl who is asking if i was spanish. Anyways, she gave her phone back to the girl who was askin me if i was spanish or not. I said i wasnt, but it ended up about me asking her out somewhere(i dont even know this girl).

Later that night(which is right now), I texted the phone and realized that the friend(not the girl who asked me the question) is the one whos holding the phone. She asked me what I was planning to do with her. I said, "Lol youre a nosy girl arent ya? lol"

This statement got the response of, "Excuse me? shes my friend i care about her and she doesnt know you. i barely know you. thats why."

Then, I responed back with: "oops my apologies for forgettin that fact"

Then, her: "Yeah a pretty important fact dont you think so? Anyways i just wanted to tell you her best friend will kick ur ass if sth wrong happens to her."

Why the sudden change of mood? We were cool until this moment. Should I go forward with seeing the girl tomorrow? How should i respond? any insights on the situation?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

if you'd told her sorry, you thought she was the other girl, everything would've been fine. she thought you were dissing her for caring

just be nice if you come across the friend again. and when you take out the girl you want, you now have a convo piece - tell her about the texting you and the miscommunication like it's a funny story. you'll defuse any preconceptions of you being untrustworthy

Eh, it's nothing. Her friend is just being protective. Say something reassuring yet c&f, like 'Don't worry she'll be safe. Unless it's a full moon, then I turn into a werewolf, but that's not for another couple of weeks. Seriously, I'll look after her good or you can kick my ass.'

The reason her friend is being overly protectice is likely because she sees her friend falling for a guy she's never met. I'm willing to bet dollars to doughnuts, the friend has the hots for you in a bad way.

Don't even bring up the friend when you meet her tomorrow, thats AFC, just have a great time. Make sure you get her cell number that way you can cut the friend out of the loop.

He has the cell number but the friend usually has the cell. XD

But yeah what I think is just go ahead with it. Go out on a date or two with the girl and then maybe at some point meet the friend. That way if you don't like the girl you may like the friend. But you'll need to get the friend in your corner at some point anyway.
 

"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.
