"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.

scene: social
chick: random girl (has connections to lots of people in my school and my other chick friends)
what happened: picked up, (she sorta came onto me as well), dirty dancing.. eg. leg between her thighs. danced for too long. after the social, she was holding hands n leaning on me.

problem:: how to tell her i don't want to go out with her?? or more like what should i do to give her the impression i don't want to continue? do i snob her off and hope she doesnt get my msn?
 

"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.

the problem is, shes got a lot of friends..
so if she takes it the wrong way (would she?) then all her friends would start to think of me as a a**hole or a player.. and my chances with alotta chicks from her school wld just drop.....

n i don't want her to think i led her on.. (should i even be worried about this?)

"I think you are a nice girl and I do not want to ruin our friendship so it would be better if we were just friends."

or

"I'm not looking for a girlfriend at the moment"

She should take the hint.

i doubt she's going to start broadcasting how you turned her down to all her friends. would you?
 

"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.
