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.

Between March 18th to October 25th, break-down as follows.Zero Hero said:I'm not gonna read the whole thread but you only went on 3 dates from online in 7 months?? I had dates from online on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday this week lol.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
So I sensed from his name... Unless that's his real name, which would be pretty cool.selfmademob said:hes never been laid, hes 29 live with his parents. his pics on myspace are embarrassing.
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.
I dont think so, this was actually a success thread because it worked. I virtually had a couple of girls who were into me, and one that was virutally a girlfriend but it didn't work out - ALL were attracted to me initially based on that type of ad. If anyone says this was not successful last year and I'm stagnant, then it is obvious you haven't read my posts and are just making a ignorant band-wagon post.[S]alvatore said:I'm going to say this, you're wasting your time with all these plans, strategies & dating site ads. The only way you will learn & grow is by getting out there & approaching women, making mistakes, learning from them. If you were making progress using the current method I wouldn't have a problem, but you aren't, you're stagnant.
No, I applied this on December 1st to December 25th, last year - I would not use a Santa Clause peac-cking exercise on times that are outside of the Christmas season. That is within 25 days last year of doing a pea-****ing exercise like this I was able to meet four people from the internet, one of which stook as a temporary gf, and another two that I kissed at the end of the date and could have meet many more. So, what you are saying is pure BS about doing the same thing.Salvatore said:Get your ass out there, talk to women, learn from your mistakes. If something doesn't work, ok scrap it, try something else. But don't stay on these forums and type up the same sh!t that you have been for the last year and a half.

New Internet ads are now up and running on plentyoffish, match and lavalife and soon I will start a forward email/smiley campaign.
Sounds like a creative idea - I do have equipment to do that and it sounds like fun, maybe the inspiration I'm looking for.Hero said:Luke,
why don't your post a youtube video of you advertising your ad on youtube and share it to the whole galaxy far far away, like the crazy britney spears fan?
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.
