"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.

Whats up my fellow Don Juans...
I have a question for you guys....

I know Im probably going to hear, "drop dating sites and pick up women elsewhere" line.. Well Im 53 years old and your average clubs & bars are filled with people half my age or close to it. So the dating sites are my best option right now unless someone can give me a better idea of where to go but, Im not the type to go to Shoprite to try and pick someone up.. I really dont have the never for that and it just seems a little weird to me IMO.. With that said, I consider myself a good looking guy probably 8 out of 10 and I just cant seem to wrap my brain around not being able to hook up on these sites...A friend of mine who is probably closer to a 5 or 6 was on the same site and met numerous women and is now in a relationship with one of them. Im not saying I get no action at all but the action I get isnt the action I want.. Many of the women who do "Like" my profile of message me are not very easy on the eyes...The few that werent bad, I messaged back but most of the times there is no reply....Dont get me wrong here, Im not expecting Salma Hayek to be knocking down my door (although it would be nice) but I am looking for someone that I like looking at...I believe there has to be a physical attraction before anything else. Whether thats wrong attitude or not, is not the point, Thats just how Im built... Anyone else have these issues?
 

"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.
