"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.

I was wondering how to stop saying dumb things and the wrong thing. I dont think i have this problem, but alot of people who have this problem ask me. Out of sympathy i'd like to help them. Any advice guys? THANX!
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

It always depends on the situation. Don´t worry, pain is a great teacher. You´ll eventually learn when to shut up once you gain maturity and life experience.

That is some good advice, but i wanna learn how to say the right and cool thing or the funny thing at the right time cause what u say in a situation determines how people view u.

Rint, there is nothing in this world that is not based on reaction. What I mean is that you have to program yourself to react funny, to say funny things. It's quite impressive the amount of work behind a stand-up comedy.

I think you should look for the book "Comedy writing secrets - Melvin Helitzer"
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Confidence. Generally people only say stupid and dumb things when they are nervous and trying to get a laugh out of someone or impress them.

Unless your being racist, homophobic, overly sexist or deliberately insulting, you shouldn't care what you say. People aren't going to remember it forever.
