"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.

WTF will I do during this down time? I plan on working out at the school gyms, read this Lance Armstrong book and take care of some errands on campus. Should I walk around campus and town trying to create a big social circle for myself?

I've got my own apartment 1 block away from campus, no roomates and it's in the heart of the downtown area ;)
How would you all play this?
 

"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.

Go ahead and have fun. It wont hurt to be friendly and get to know people. You're on your own and school hasnt started yet; take advantage of it.

yea, no need to go out of your way to make things happen. you have plenty of time, use it to get to know your surroundings. but again, it doesnt hurt to be friendly, if you see someone who looks like they're lost on campus (preferably a girl) offer to walk with her, if you know your way good if you dont then you can learn together.

well I moved in, have to wait till sunday to go back, until then I'm hanging at my bro's place. It should be good. I'm halfway through college, so this new school should be good to redeem myself, not necessarily start over. Already planning on attending an event Sunday night.
 

"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.

Finally living on my own now and it's good. I dont live a block away, I'm actually right across the street from the cadets and a dining hall :) and now have the net. Chicks are in hiding lol and I plan on using the gym tomorrow 1st time.

I'm actually 20-years-old and go to an ACC school, not L.T. I used to post under a diff. username. Ran into the football coach today!
