"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'm facing a dilemma involving two of the girls I like. Girl A is interested in me, and we have a date tomorrow. Whereas girl B is crazy about me. Normally I'd ask them both out and see who I get along with better, but I don't know how well that'd go over seeing as how they're good friends with each other. I don't want to break anyone's heart, and I'm at a loss for what to do next. Help!
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Go on a date with both.

You said they're good friends; ask if they want to do something, just the three of you. Don't make it sound like a date, make it a group hanging out kind of thing. During the date, set yourself up as the prize, make them squabble over you. Make sure that you keep them competing for your attention, rather than having the two of them talking to each other and cutting you out.

In retrospect, I may have overreacted. This may be a sticky situation, but it's nothing I can't handle.

Just figured I'd check back in to say that this issue has officially been resolved. It didn't turn out the way I thought it would, but I have no regrets.
 

"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.
