I met a girl in class the other day. She approached me and later ended up giving me her number. The next day I told her we should go out for drinks after class, which she agreed to. This "date" or whatever you wanna call it is 4 days away. should I call/text her between now and then?
"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.
should i text/call her before we hang out?

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
The proper answer is...
A real man would text a girl whenever he felt like it. He would not delve into tactical preparation
So basically, if you feel like texting this girl, do it... but do not come across as pathetic or needy. Keep it light and funny
Humour wins hearts.

No fkn way! Just show up. Be cool, yo.
You already made plans. There is anticipation which = good. Why ruin in? Unless you're texting to save her: there is a bomb in her building, I'm pretty sure whatever you have to say can wait for in person. Keep the anticipation. you only get one shot at 'new.'
