"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.

Hello gentlemen,

There's this 7.5 (but I give her an 8.5 for speaking 8 languages and having a very nice accent : )), she's in a club with me and I've spoken to her a few times. Since I'm on the exec (muahahaha) I had her email address, so I invited her to a party at my place, she came and left. I should have gotten the # but that's in the past now.

So now, I think she's interested (if not who cares anyway), but all I have is her email addy. What do you gentlemen recommend? Email her about going out, ask for her phone number by email? How do you get a girl's phone number by email? I probably won't see her for another month if I don't act, but I have no idea how.

Hahahaha, maybe I should just write only one line, "What's your phone number?"

Bahahaha, that would rock.

Your thoughts please.

"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.

OK

Thanks for the chorus of help guys :cool:

I ended up sending an email, no subject, with just one line: "What's your phone number?" and signed my name. Hahaha, we'll see how that goes, couple bucks says she challenges me or just simply doesn't respond.

I can't believe I sent this email on Valentines Day, that was slow of me.

*reeking of desperation* (oh well, too bad)

If this girl is in a club with you then why won't you see her again for a month? If that's the case, then I guess you have to ask her number by e-mail. I don't think I would go with your plan to have it only be the subject heading, but I guess it could work.

I think you should have acted faster and tried to set up a date with her for V-day. If she would rather be alone on V-day then on a date with you then you probably want to next her. Or if she's seeing someone else, then you would find that out early.

The club only meets once a month, sometimes more - we give charity concerts for the blind and elderly (yea I know, I'm a saint :- P).

I had no subject heading, and made "what's your phone number? Izza" the body. Yea, I definitely should have acted faster, but I don't know about the date for V-day - that kind of reeks of using someone else so that you don't feel like you're a loser on V-day. Not sexy, and not a good way to be. Just my opinion.

Well, me have the digits :- D

Now I have to think of somewhere to take her, so long as she's treating me right.

"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.
