"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.

Okay here's what happened...
1. I added some girl on facebook that used to go to my high school...
2. She adds me and doesn't even know who I am really/doesn't remember me
3. I tell her
4. She asks me if i want to take her to grad/prom
5. I say sure as long as she doesn't embarrass me
6. Next day she confirms that im not going to ditch her
7. I say I'm not going to...
Then me and my friends get into a conversation about who we're going with. I tell them I'm going with that girl, word spreads.
Word gets back to me that noone likes her and that she's only using me to get into my highschool's grad/prom.

I promised her I would go with her... but on the other hand she manipulated me and everyone that's cool/of importance in my school HATE her which would damage my social proof kind of. Ask if you need more details.
 

"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.

Well, if she embarrasses you, that's your escape clause.

honestly it sounds like if you bring her there is going to be ALOT of drama

she manipulated me
how?
do you know why she want to go to prom at your school/ with you?

Everything you said, leads to one conclusion; don't bring her to prom.

but then the question becomes what do you want?
-to take her because you like her

If I were you I would find out why she wants to go to prom at your school (does she want to come to start sh!t, is she coming because she likes you?).

how good lookin is she? Some people hate on better lookin people, its just the way of the world. Also find out if shes sexually liberated so if you do take her at least youll get some booty. Its important that shes hot AND skanky, if not then i say dont take her.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Apparently she just wanted to use me to get into the grad dinner/dance.

I don't really 'like' her because i don't really know her...she's probably about a 6.5-7

Just tell her the truth...that for some reason that you don't know, all of your friends don't like her and are mad at you for inviting her and you don't think it's a good idea for you to take her because people probably wouldn't treat her well and it'd be a big drama. Tell her that you'll still go out with her another time and another place, but that you really don't want your night ruined over drama.

I really don't understand the root cause of it, tho. I suspect feminism. ("I don't need a man. I need to take charge of my life, study hard, and pursue a career" and all that.)
wow, that was amazing :cheer:
 

"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.
