"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.

Hi DJs,

Long story short-- i broke up with this girl, maybe she didnt take it too well, she deleted me on facebook. now: a year later, out of the blue sent me a message:

"You must be bored.
Empty maybe"

after clicking her profile apparently she got a new boyfriend. not sure what is the reaction she is looking for? i dont want to turn it into a pissing contest since i moved on long ago.

inputs/suggestions to replies or ignore appreciated.

:)

If you moved on long ago does this even warrant a response?

Remember, in the process of making a decision, inaction is a completely valid response and I believe applicable in this case. I'd ignore it. She hasn't moved on but you have.

Go have fun man.

Yep, ignore it man, nothing good can come from a conversation with a bitter ex. She'll either talk to you to make you feel like shlt or try to piss you off. So ignore it.

What the hell does that message even mean? It makes no sense. That isn't even hate mail. This thread is lame.
 

"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.

I am diagnosing your GF as being a retard.

"You must be bored. Empty maybe."

Something clearly a retard would write. You know what you do to retards? You ignore them.

Haha, you got her good bro.

She's all hung up on you and trying to get revenge.

Don't ever respond to her message or talk to her ever again.

Just getting you to talk to her would be validation for her that she is worth something.

Don't give her any validation at all not even the smallest crumb of it. :up:

"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.
