"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 like her, she likes me. All in all, she's a pretty sweet package:

-Very intelligent, she's basically top of the class.
-Extremely attractive, she's easily a nine.
-Very cool. What can I say, I like her.

She came off as pretty innocent but she definitely has a wild side. This kind of shook me up a little, I wasn't expecting it. I'm not really in a rush to go steady, in fact, I'm determined not to...yet. So this is unfamiliar territory for me. I'd like to be "friends with benefits" for a few months.

With me being her exclusive friend.

So yeah, I haven't done anything and she expects me to. I was hoping I could get some advice on doing it without making it "official" and all the responsibilities that come with that. While keeping her satisfied with the state of the relationship. Should I just move in and pray melodrama doesn't collapse on top of 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.

just go with it man.

don't worry about what she's wantin. just focus on what you want. maybe something works out, maybe not. keep your attachment in check. hopefully she does the same. if she doesn't, well, its not your bad. you were trying her out, she's not the one, what can ya do? think about it from her perspective, if you turned out to not be the one, i bet she fukk u off pritty darn quick. she won't care bout your feelings right. its a tryout. think of it as such.

The investment was already made, oneitus has gripped us both. Sounds dirty to say, but there was a pretty solid connection from the get go. What can I say, I have a way about me. I just need to detach myself and become a dikc and I'd be right where I want to be. Alas, I get attached to beautiful, smart, and funny women.

I just want to limit my oneitus.

My older friend told me the only way to get better with women is to get your heart broken. That sounds like it sucks. This seems like a prime opportunity too...
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Thanks lol, sorry about your dinner.

They were words of wisdom, so it wasn't a complete waste of an egg.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

"friends with benefits" with you being the only friends sounds to me like a relationship without any of the male disadvantages, only the female ones.

that said, if you're completely new at dating women, you have to start somewhere. I'd say an intelligent, beautiful, funny nine is a good way to do that.

Dude, sometimes oneitis can be okay. If you guys like each other then enjoy. Don't get so tied up in wether or not shes a Republican while you pop ectasy and vote for the green party.

Alright maybe I went to far but to me it sounds like your trying to follow some ASF/DJ rulebook. Trust me, one of the most important things in this world is to be able to think for yourself. If you want a relationship then get a relationship. If you want a harem, then check into therapy, because no guy in his right mind can handle that many women on his own.

Boo! Where's the help I need? It's closer to me being hungry and her being a burrito. She tastes/looks/smells good but is going to bring out some serious siht later. I'd much rather eat half of the burrito to avoid Montezuma's revenge and yet be satisfied. If that makes sense.

I don't want to share my burrito either. And I may want to try some side dishes.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

True that. But I have the fertile eggs right here. So I might as well.

If I break them I'll go get more.
