"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.

This girl instantly messaged me on myspace like right after her boyfriend broke up with her. Good chance that I might just be becoming a rebound? I hardly ever talk to this chick.. and she just instantly tells me out of nowhere.. like I care or something lol. But yeah.. we talked about it, nothing deep.. I just gave her my sympathy and said "that sucks". She wants to hang out at lunch on monday.. not sure if I should get into this. Yay or nay?
 

"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.

If you can seal the deal why not? Don't let her turn you into her little girlfriend though. If she starts talking about her ex shut her the f.ck up.

Nah, she was cool about it, infact anytime something personal came up she changed the subject. I liked that.

Anyway, it's too late now.. just got her number. Maybe I will call her this weekend and hang out with her, if not then we'll chill on monday.
