"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.

So, I met a girl in my class that I was interested in and spent a week or two just sitting next to her getting to know each other. Yesterday I asked her if she would like to come over and study and she gave me her number and such. She texted me that night just asking me questions and stuff (some of the things she texted seemed like definite IOAs) and she asked how old I was. I responded 20 and asked how old she was. She texted back something to the extent that I was cute and so young. She is 23, not much older in my opinion. Just wondering how I should go about acting around her tonight, the age doesn't really bother me at all, just want to make sure it isn't an obstacle for her. Thanks for any advice.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Might be a dumb question but whats an IOA? ... interest of attraction ?

I dont think the age will matter, just act mature but make sure you have fun and you will be ok..

Just act like it's not an issue and it shouldn't be. If you act like it's an issue, she'll think it's an issue. Just be yourself unless you happen to be very immature.
