"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 tonight, I was with my wingman, and we spent the night walking around this popular shopping area. It was about 9.30pm.

We go down to the train station, and we see these 3 hot *****es standing around. We go stand near them, and my mate hears the name "Miles" mentioned in their conversation.

So he turns and says "Do you know Dave Miles?" (he doesnt even know the guy, just bull****ting), and they're like "Oh no, a different one. But we know Dave Miles". So he's like cool, where are you headed? They say some club or whatever. We bull**** that we were at some party. We tease them a little about drinking chick drinks and they like it. Then their train comes and they say "you should come clubbing with us" (but we couldn't coz we're only 17, but we bull ****ted that we were 18), we said we had to get somewhere but they should give us their number.

So we got their numbers and gonna get coffee with a couple of them in a few days.

So basically, we found something they were talking about, and used it to start a convo, and basically just talked bull **** and they loved us. :cool:
 

"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.

Lmao sounds good for a ONS. Your in trouble if you end up getting to know them well though.

Girl: Hey, you wanna come to mine?
Guy: I got no ride.
Girl: What happened to your car?
Guy: Er...... It's in the shop?
Girl: Alright, I'll come to yours
Guy: *off the phone* Phew, that was close.

Next time

Girl: Blah blah, drive somewhere, come to mine, take your pic
Guy: No ride story again, in the shop ect.
Girl: You don't have a car do you?
Guy: Er.... *quiet voice* no
Girl: Lying **** *hangs up*
Guy: Bollocks... Looks like Mr. Hand will be my only partner tonight :(
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

haha who cares.
unless miba wants a relationship with one of them. its not like they'll be around long enough to wonder/care if he has a car.

good job.
you did what most guys CANT do which is take what she says, pick a part of her story to talk about, then continue the conversation, and repeat.

you build rapport and possibly attraction with these girls and got their number.

"bull**** theory" my ass. he and his friends got numbers.
its not the process that counts, its the result

Until you tell them you're 18 and they check your myspace and stop talking to you when they find out you're 16...but I'm over that :D
