"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 recently a girl I knew from high school found me on myspace. We knew eachother, but weren't really "friends", as in people who hung out or talked a lot. I think she was attracted to me, but i dated one of her good friends all through highschool. She used to tell my girlfriend things like "i want to steal him haha".

Anyway, she left me a message "i hope i see you this summer, i havnt seen you forever." It's been two years since weve seen each other. So she sent me her number and msn address.

Tonight i was bored and saw she was online, so i said lets go out for ice cream. She said im not hungry but i will go. Anyway i was just gonna get ice cream and drop her off, but when we got to her hosue she said "do u wanna come in and finish your ice cream?" Of course i said yes.

We had a good time, lots of convo, a lot of catching up type stuf, but some other things too. A little bit of kino, not too much, like i would put my hand on her leg for a second when i was telling a story. We were sittin on her couch watchin t.v. for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. At first her body was facing into me, we were sitting kind of close, but not too close. I didnt make a move!! She seemed to be habving fun, lots of laughing. But i didn't know what to do. I have a decent amount of experience with girls, but none in this situation.

I wasn't nervous at all, I was just not sure exactly how to go about making a move. I honestly think that i could get some play from her to be honest. I just did not want to try to get too close and make it seem weird. But like i said before, its not like we are "friends", i hadn't even talked to her for 2 years before this.

Anyway, any tips for next time? How do you think i should ask her to chill? And what should we do? I do not want to make it seem like too much of a "date", but i dont want to be a friend either. How do you recommend escalating to the point where we could get close? I know that i could get the kiss etc once we are close enough, thats not a problem. I am having trouble getting to that point. She seemed receptive, but maybe i was jsut scared to make it weird.

Sorry for the long a$$ post, but please any tips would be great. And no, i don't think this is the typical LJBF situation. Thanks everyone!
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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.

I hope you realize that she invited you in because she was hoping you'd **** her brains out. That's your tip for "next time."

Dude. If You meet a women from old times and she dates You, there is onl 1 chance to kiss her. SO next time better do it. But there may be no next time because You acted like friend not potential attactor.

I realized this, and i'm not proud of it. Any tips to make sure "next time" happens? I think it might be akward to do the traditional "date" thing, so maybe something similar to what we did the first time. picked her up at 10:45 p.m., so it wasn't like we did a whole dinner movie type date. Just ice cream and her house. And once i'm there, on escalating the kino and not making it seem weird? I'm pretty confident i can pull this off. I'm just having troubles getting it started.

Just talked to her actually, got plans for later this week. We are either going to do something(what that is has yet to be determined), or she is going to help me decorate my new room, and we would probably chill afterwards. If we decided to "do something, what would you recomend, I don't want it to seem too "date-like". Any advice??????
