"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.

I need to know what ya'll think about a situation that I'm in. Not a challenging situation just an interesting one. I've been instand messaging this girl for quite a while now. She's always been ending all the conversations(not on purpose I think) but then I read all that DJing stuff. I started being ****y and funny with her and started ending all the conversations. I started comming online less to make myself scarce. She also has a large buddy list (on MSN Messenger). I'm talking 100 and over. I noticed that everytime i cut the conversations short by saying that "I have to go now." it sounds like she is kind of competing to end it before me by saying "anyway I'm going." directly after I say that I'm going. To me something dosn't smell right. What do u think about it? Oh and please don't tell me why i don't just pick up the phone and call. :cool:
 

"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.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
You know what I smell? Fear. From you.

Stop worrying about it. There's a good chance she's trying to play a "game" with you and end all the conversations before you do. Or maybe you're still talking too long. Either way, it doesn't matter. The point isn't to "be the one ending the conversation," it's to "not be the one who's hanging on the other end of the line because he can't bear to leave her". ;)

Hmm...I always seem to have trouble ending a conversation, even if it's 3 AM and I'm falling asleep on the keyboard.

I never said i was afraid. I'm kind of glad that it's happening. This means that she must want be back if that's the case.

I kinda smell a "Rules Girl". If you've read the book, it tells the woman to always be the one to end the conversation first. It could be that the two of you are battling for cutting it short first.

Ask her, "What kind of creature are you?"
If she says, "A creature unlike any other" you've got a winner.
