"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.

Hi guys

This is a followon from my last thread:
http://www.sosuave.net/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=90706

To summarise, I've been seeing a woman over the net for 4 months, and for the last 6 weeks, the rot really seems to have set in. Communication has dropped right off and so forth.

She is still not speaking to me. like a typical woman, she made a big song and dance about having to tell me something important and calling me, yet she didnt bother. Essentially, she arranged to chat to me twice over the net, and both times didnt bother. The first time she provided me with a bullsh!t excuse, the second time she didnt even bother supplying one.

She barely e-mails me, and its getting to me now. it was so full on in the beginning, and now its just faded away to nothing. Tonight has torn it, she can update her blog or whatever, but can't be arsed to send me an e-mail, something has to give. If I wasnt engaged to this girl, I would dump her in a second, however, as we;'re engaged, its more complicated.

What Im thinking about is giving her an ultimatum:

Things cannot go on like this. You are STILL not bothering to talk to me, despite me making every effort to contact you. You don't chat to me, you barely write, e-mail or call, and to be honest, its driving me mad. Things cannot go on like this. I ahve told you time and time again about the effect this is having on me, and despite some promises to the contrary, you STILL insist on carrying on as if everything is ok, when it clearly isnt. Your actions lately belye a massive lack of respect for me and the effort I am putting into this relationship. I'm giving you a choice, either you make much more of an effort to contact me from now on, and keep up that effort, or its over between us. I never wanted it to come to this, but your actions are leaving me no choice.

Is this the right way to go about this, or should I try something different.

Whats putting me off just dumping her is that:
a: Im engaged
b: She's flying over in January
c: I;ve just forked out loads for an engagement ring.

so any help at all would be awesome.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Well the relationship is over and you just haven't figured it out yet.

Fair play mate

Does the fact she keeps saying "I love you" without necessarily backing it up with actions pretty much confirm there is a problem?

@Newman: If you have nothing constuctive to say, beyond throwing insults, then *Snip*.

EDIT: Apologies newman, I just read your last comment, cutting off contact completely isnt an option because of how much I have invested in this relationship emotionally as well as monitarily.

Ok now that I've got that out of my system.

I'd take the ring back, and cut off contact with her. Stop basing your life around her. Get out and meet a real woman.

end of story.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
