"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.

I used to have a lot of success on MySpace and POF, but with the new messaging format not including a subject line, it's tougher to stand out. Not impossible, but not as responsive as before, so I am trying out public places instead to meet people.

I have no problem meeting women at bars, have a few good tactics and openers I've used before, however; I am not a fan of bars overall, though considering going there regularly to meet women since meeting them on the street just seems awkward. From what I read recently, very few women met on the street end up as dates, etc. That seems to match my own experience from when I was in my late teens, I've only slept with a few women I met on the street.

Do you meet women this way and is it as effective for you as other ways? What works for you, what doesn't? Any openers? I have some openers for grocery stores but need to practice them.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I tried daygame in the city & didn't have much success.

I approached lots of women, but didn't have much success.

I found myself more successful Online.

Read Sideways thread on approaches.
