"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 i'm in highschool and i've made plans with a chick to go to a local park/nature reserve to hang out. After sending her talking about tomorrow plans she sent me this

"is it ok if i wear jeans? I don't wanna shave my legs."

Normally I don't care if girls don't shave there legs or not it doesn't bother me one bit, plus this girl usually wears jeans most of the time anyways. So my question to you is why would she ask me this? and how should i respond?
 

"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 think it means much of anything in THIS context, other than she's concerned about what you think about what she wears. Maybe she thinks she's supposed to wear shorts for the outing.

Or possibly...

The leg shaving thing might be BS. She might have her period and feel more comfortable in jeans rather than shorts in case of um, leakage.

Either way, who cares? Just say, "Yeah no prob."

When you get a bit older, "I /am not going to/forgot to shave my legs" means "I have no plans to get horizontal tonight*."

But just for a date in the park? It doesn't really matter either way.

*Another thought for the Female Translator.

Who knows thanks for the advice she hardly ever wears shorts. Actually i don't think I've only ever seen her in shorts once and that's when she knew would be out somewhere were she'd get dirty.
