"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.

My gf is acting crazy. she can't sleep at night and shes very snappy. we have been fighting a lot recentley. Shes in grad school and is stressed out, we also just got a dog (we live together) and shes stressed out about that, she might be stressed about me but I really dont do anything except put her in line when she does stupid sh*t. But she just gets really moody and on the edge ready to snap. I just get kind of hard show her tough love sometimes cause she needs to grow up. But what should I do right now ive never seen her like this? should I just let her be by herself and her friends or try to help her? She always says she wants to be left alone when shes in a bad mood.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I think she might be cheating. Women try to hide the guilt in diffrent ways some will be extra nice some will go crazy.

well, i'll be....

Does she only act like this certain times of the month, or all the time??
 

"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.

Cry really loud in front of her, and see what she does.

Before you go assuming a bunch of stuff about her , you need to understand something about college. I dont know if you've been or not, but , college is very stressful and I can personally testify to that (I'm graduating this Saturday). I see this kind of stuff all the time around here (campus) - girls will smoke more, drink more, bit*h more, and take out a bunch of anger on others. In fact, guys do it too. Nothing is worse than trying to get a stupid 40 page thesis paper in for some prof who wants everything done their way.

You should take this into consideration a little bit more. Also, how much more time does she have to go in college? Was she like this b4 she started getting her masters?

If this isnt the case, then your g/f needs some help ...

And where in MKS82's post is there an indication where he suspects that his girl may be cheating on him? Get a grip.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I don’t care if he suspects the girl may be cheating I am just offering advice as to some behavioral changes a women shows when she is cheating. A sudden change in behavior could indicate that she is cheating it may also indicate other things. It is common for a woman that is cheating to become "crazy" because that how she deals with her guilt. I am in no way saying that she is definitely beyond a shadow of a doubt cheating I am simply telling him to watch out because what he has described could very well be an indication that his GF is being unfaithful. So you are the one that should "get a grip".

Yea, college is stressful. LIFE in general is stressful, but you are not excused for lashing out on someone else b/c of this. Everyone gets upset, and if there is a way to calm her down w/o escalating the situation MKS82 should do it. However it is still her responsibility to find a healthy way to vent out w/o projecting on someone else.

College is not that stressful, and anyone who thinks it is takes themselves and life too seriously! That or they are real stupid and need to study too hard to pass! If you find College stressful, you are not going to survive 40 years in business with far more real life resonsibility on you!

She is either cheating on you, she is bored of you and wants something new or she just has serious issues. Either one, I would talk to her about it seriously, sit her down and do it properly. Wait and see if there are changes, work hard to keep it together if you like her and want this to last and she does also. If worst comes to worst, you are still young, move on!

How long have you been together?

Oh sorry, didnt read the bottom part of it, she is definately getting bored and suffocated by you! Living together, YOU IDIOT!! Dont do this with a girl you like until you are married! IMHO!! Give her a LOT of space, start doing the things you love, and hang out with your friends. Give her moer space than she thinks she wants! Thats the only way to get this back on track!

I’m somewhat confused on living with a girl before marriage. Don’t you think it would be a good idea to live with her so you get an idea of what she’s like to live with? You wouldn’t want to marry her then find out her habits around the house are really annoying and you can’t stand living with her.

On the other hand if you live with her before it can ruin the relationship.

So ive never been able to make up my mind on this.

I agree, and thats why I dont live with them, but may some weeks spend a few nights of the week at eachothers place. This way, you get to see a lot of their habits, as you still practically live together, but still get your own space! Once marriage and total committment are involved, then its time to get in the real nitty gritty of the relationship and work out the flaws. If you live with them before, I honestly dont see nearly as much fun to marriage. Thats also why I added In My Honest Opinion, some may disagree and fair enough for their own reasons, just my opinion and thoughts from observations and experience!

Yeah, well more than a weekend. I usually spend anywhere between 1-5 nights a week with my girlfriend and have done so in the past with my other serious girlfriends. Gives me space when I want it and lets me see if I could possibly be compatible with them in a real serious LTR. Not just the 2 months LTRs people preach about on here. One similar to a marriage, where you get space and have to do a lot of sh*t together.

A couple of was fine spending a couple of dates a week with them, but realised once the relatinoship was intensified (and all have to be eventually), I couldtn deal with them in the long term. This is also why I beleive what guys say on this site, "only see your girlfriend once a week", is absolute bullsh*t! That is true for the first month or two, but then you have to step it up!
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
