"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.

Ok so a girl that I'm friends with basically just pronounced her love for me. SH!T. :eek: I don't know how to deal with that. I like her as a friend but nothing else. I don't know what to say back to let her know that it's not reciprocal but that I still think she's a cool friend.

I usually don't come to this board for stuff like this anymore but I can't deal with this kind of stuff.

What should I say back?

This girl just proclaimed her love to you... anything you say will seem to her like a rejection if you don't say I love you back to her...

So the best thing you can do is simply say... I like you as a friend but nothing else... which is exactly how you feel...

If she's not horribly ugly why not tell her you want a booty call and nothing more.

If she looks like an urangutang then you may just tell her that you're in a "complicated" relationship right now.

The girlfriend manuever. If she's a good friend, it probably won't work, as she knows you're life.

Hell, if chicks can lie about having a boyfriend, we can lie and say we have a girlfriend.

That way, you can still be her buddy, just one who is already taken.

If she knows you're single, and thinks you have a problem with women, then KIND honesty is your best bet.

You have a friend that's a girl, and you're "just friends"? Are you sure you're a guy?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
