"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.

ok so i live in a house full of international exchange students in mexico, and there are these two girls who are best friends and they're always talking and gossiping etc...

lately i've been feeling some tension between us (me and them), one girl is always sending me mixed signals. for example, not talking to me sometimes...not going to places with me when i ask her to..but always pays attention to me like sometimes she'll say i'm not nice to her (i know this is a good sign) or leaving her jacket in my room on purpose etc..

i don't know what's going on right now...i used to like that girl and i think she knows too...then the vibe kinda got cold but one day she gave me this doggy-dinner-bowl look but then later on she was semi-cold again...

i don't know what's going on...it's been like this for a month..always pushing and pulling..anyone have any idea how to escalate?
 

"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.

Theres some tension there which is good. She doesn't see you as a friend so thats a positive thing. She might like you is my guess.

"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.

I would ignore her. Talk to other people and have fun. If she's geniunly interested she'll try to get your attention back. Dont fall for her games. Guessing stuff from mixed signals has nearly always meant I've gotten played by a girl looking for attention.
