"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.

Hey everybody, I have been trying to game this chick for a minute, she also works at my job and I had asked her out, come the day I speak to her and ask her if she wants to be picked up or meet me at our planned location, she says something along the lines of having to take a family member somewhere and I should have reminded her the day before yadda yadda, at this point I'm about to walk away and cut my losses when she asks me to go out with her and her friends on the weekend. She also wants to exchange numbers after work so we can call each other and set it up. My theory is that she's interested enough to go out with me, but not quite comfortable enough to go on her own, suggestions or insights?
 

"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.

What was the planned location?

If you planned to meet in public, then that's what should have happened. Tell her you should meet where you agreed to, and if she can't make it now, you can meet when she can actually do it.

I had a really high IL girl invite me out with her friends on at least one occasion that I can remember. But it was after we'd already done stuff by ourselves 2-3 times.

It could be that she's just not comfortable enough to go out one on one.

But then again if you went out with her group of friends I doubt you're going to enjoy yourself much. But that's just me, I've been the only guy in a girl's night out before and it is no fun, I don't plan to do this again.

My suggestion is do not date or become involved with girls at your job. Dude, do you seriously know what is going to happen WHEN things go south?

1) She will tell every girl there what a sorry POS you are
2) This will make it's way to your boss/supervisor/manager
3) Once your boss knows how unprofessional you are (by dating girls at work) you will be passed up on the next promotion
4) Even if you don't care about your job and things are great imagine the pleasure of being spied upon in and out of work
5) Other girls at your job will flirt with you, not because they like you hahaha, but to piss her off. This will lead to drama at work! You will hear about this at home too bro

Been there, done it. Never again. Get her number & when you leave this job call her. Explain you had a bad experience with dating/partying girls at work.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
