"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.

Okay,

I saw this post on craigslist about this chick *****in and moaning about some dude she didn't like. I emailed and sent a pic she sent a pic and she showed interest. She wrote her number and asked me to call her, when I called, she started being rude and condecending. I was like, "what fuvk is your problem?" afterall, she did ask me to call her. So towards the end of the conversation I said, "Look, I don't know what your problem is but you told me to call you and I would like to meet you for a drink when you calm the fuvk down and be nicer". She agreed. Then, she flaked on me that day. Here comes the psychotic event....
When she flaked, I said, whatever, maybe some other time. I deleted her number. Mind you, I never met her. She then told me that she would get back to me Sunday (tomorrow). I said whatever and deleted her number. On Friday morning (yesterday) I get a text from her as if we have known each other for two weeks. The texts were pointless (about her work day). After a few texts I said (look, I gotta go but have a good rest of the afternoon at work. talk to you soon). I never heard anything back after that text. I never asked her out again. What the hell was that text about? Am I going crazy here? Why was she rude to me when I called? What the hell is wrong with this girl. She is hot but I think she is crazy. What's the next move? Contact her one more time? Or let her "get back to me" as she said. Have no idea why I received texts yesterday. She was talking like we have known each other for weeks.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

The girl was crazy when you met her, there's ALOT of crazy people on craigslist and hookers too! Myspace is a good spot to meet chicks online but craigslist is full of psychos.

Is she crazy?

Why was she rude to you ?

Imagine this - you are a good looking guy who is usually pursued by women...no problem.

Then you decide, after a recent breakup, to post a rant on Craigslist about how your ex G/f did you wrong. You really go off on her, and women in general.
Then you receive an email for some random woman who wants to talk to you after she read your explosion.

What would you think of a woman who contacts you "for a drink.." after you have hated on females in general?

How are you likely to treat her given your emotional condition??

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
