"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, so to start off, this girl seems great. We are both juniors in high school and we both have cars so we can go out.

We would always stare at each other so one day I decided to go up to her. I got her number and she seems really exited when I talk to her in person. But when we text she takes forever to reply and makes excuse but seems happy to text me. After a short period of time I stupidly decided to asked her to be my girlfriend. She told me she really likes me and but she just feels like she barely knows me. She said that later that day. She randomly came up to me to tell me. So I'm trying to get to know her but here comes the mixed signals.

She always touches me and rubs my arms and tried to hold my hand. But then she takes forever to text back. I also saw her flirting with another guy by touching his arm and laughing with him right after I walked away from her. And she told her friend the we aren't really "talking" yet. I'm just so confused.

Does she like me? Should I text we everyday? I really want to ask her to go hangout sometime but I don't know if I should. Please help guys. Also it won't b awkward because we both have cars so it's not like our parents would take us. Is she using me just for attention or does she really like me?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I wrote a thread on mixed signals. Go read it.

Women who are interested in you will not confuse you.

Case closed. Move on.

Ok here is the deal, she could be rejecting you.. or she could be doing a power pull. Stop texting her, because I feel like your coming on strong, be more reserved man. Take forever texting her back and see where is goes. You were not rejected or she would have never given you the phone number.

Whenever I read a post by someone talking about texting a girl of interest, I'm perplexed. Do you really think you're getting any closer to her by texting?? You should only use texts when you can't call her, and you only call her when you want to set up a date. If you can't get her on a date, you know where you stand, next her.

Texting makes your hamster spin the wheel.
 

"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.
