"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.

So my GF hates it if (for example) we go to a party, and I leave her with her friends, while I have fun with my male friends. Or when we are shopping then I meet my friend, and I have a chat with him for about 5 minutes, letting her shopping by herself for a while.

My GF said that it's not polite to do that. But I think it's a normal thing to do. So who's right here?
 

"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.

There are two very different situations mentioned above.

Part 1 at a party, she should not get pissed that you talk to others as long as you talk to her thoughout the night, and when you are talking to her show she is your by touching her, if you don't she and her friends will ***** that you showed no real interest.

Part 2 at the shops, She is correct that you are meant to be together so why wasn't she also talking to your friend.

Tell her you doing what you do and don't get mad if your not fvcking with her. You know what i'm saying? Don't let her tell you how to do you!
 

"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.

Have you tried including her in the conversations such that she can't go off on her own? Also, why do you leave her to fend for herself at a party when you know that she's not one to mingle on her own?
