"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 went no-contact on her, and now she keeps contacting me...

Ok, quick background story: I met a girl, and due to the timing of things, I asked her to prom within a few weeks of knowing her. HER IL was quite high, and things were great. Prom was fun...although she had to be home RIGHT after, so nothing much happened. Lots of cuddling at prom though.

However, soon after that she went cold (perhaps it was because her sister dislikes me? who knows). So, I got away from her. I was a senior, and skipped school a lot near the end, so it wasn't too hard :D

Now, about 1.5 months later, she keeps calling/texting. I haven't replied to much of anything, and I keep the conversations to about 3-4 min when I do speak to her. I keep it playful, and use lots of C&F, to which she has responded well.

My plan: Wait until sometime next week, call her up and take her out somewhere.

Do you guys have any experience with situations like this?

UPDATE: She called again!! The second time today. However, I was watching TV and didn't answer. haha...

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

If she's the one calling and contacting you, why mess it up? Wait to ask her when she calls you again. Don't go out of your way all of the sudden if it's working for you.

Spot on mav. If her IL is very high, take advantage. You don't need to make a move if she's already making them. However, please make the move when you actually do meet up with her. It sounds like she wants it.

Thanks guys. Although I can't help but being worried she won't call again :nervous: But, oh well :D
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I thought you said that she was calling and texting. If so, why would you be scared that she wouldn't call?

Sounds like her IL is sky high right now. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Keep letting her do the calling, and casually suggest that she come over or that the two of you meet somewhere. After that, you know what to do!

Yeah, but if I never reply to anything she might stop. She called last night and I haven't called back.

I didn't say not to reply. How could you have a conversation with someone if you don't reply. Just don't initiate contact if you haven't been doing it in the first place (like I said, why screw up a good thing?). It's ok not to reply or answer sometimes because it really just increases her interest and causes her to second guess herself. Then her ego will get the best of her, and she'll be knocking down your door. lol

If you always answer and you're always available, then she WILL lose interest in you. You've got her wanting to prove herself to her, and that's right where you want her.

Yeah, I was thinking along the same lines. Thanks :)
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
