"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've got a rapport going with a few girls right now that would make perfectly good partners (6-7.5) but don't really affect my heart rate too much. However, I DO have a couple possibilities I'm pursuing that are so hot I have to really concentrate to stay calm (7.5-9).

The issue? Fate is cruel...both of the hotties are in my once-a-week Friday classes, and the regular cute girls I see three to four times a week. Should I go for the more-likely catches or the less-likely catches? It's not like having high standards is a bad thing, but it's not like those'll keep me warm at night...
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

eliminate the ones with boyfriends then if any are left go for the hottest.

infact go for the one you would be happiest with first, no harm in trying is there just make sure if you don't get her the others don't know they where second choice :)

Makes perfect sense, man...that's just what I thought I'd get.

One thing I've also noticed is that I relax a hell of a lot more with women I won't make a move on (married/attached women, coworkers, etc). For some reason the fact I can't do anything about it makes me take more of a take-no-prisoners approach to flirting...meetings with my career counselor are NOTHING but thinly failed flirting sessions right now.
