"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.

Trying again?

There is this girl that has liked me for awhile, and she seemed to be getting frustrated with me because I wasn't making any sort of move (at first I didn't really like her, I would just flirt with her in the one class we have together). However, for the last few weeks I have been interested, but I still hesitated before asking her out on a date (I gotta stop being nervous...lol). Anyway, I FINALLY invited her to go ice skating with me this coming Saturday (this was Monday)...she didn't give an answer one way or the other but she seemed to react positively. I didn't get a chance to talk to her on Tuesday. Today she seemed to be acting like she normally did around me, but I said "so you're going ice skating with me on Saturday, right?" She replied with "nope." I don't know if she was going to continue that thought, but she paused for a few seconds so I said "why not" and she mentioned some scheduled meeting for a project she's working on for another class....she didn't offer an alternate day or anything. What do you guys think? She has been showing high signs of interest, plus I like her, so I'm VERY reluctant to just next her...last week, in what I believe was an attempt to make me jealous, she told me she liked some guy, but she was very vague so I didn't really believe her, and just said something like "not as much as you like me" and she just said "whatever" or something like that. So what do you guys think? Do I invite her to do something else sometime? How long should I wait?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

List the indicators of interest she's showing.
How old are you/she?
How long have you known her?

Specifics make for better answers :p

yeah, I think she just rejected you dude. Tough break bro, don't call her or give her any sign of interest. When she sees that you don't pay attention to her she will bring that up (90% of women do), when she does you should tell her that she lost her chance with you. If you play your cards right, it should be a down slide from there.
Good luck man.

Invite her one more time to something else. If she comes up with an excuse and no counteroffer, move on.

Well, she sits by me in class, and she is always starting random conversations with me, and we flirt a lot...I've known her for 3 or 4 months. I am 18, she's 17.

Specifically, I'm always telling her "you love me" and "you want me" and things like that. She used to hit me laughing and say "shut up" but lately she kinda smirks and says "whatever" or something else to that effect.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Good luck man.

In what way will she bring it up? I see her everyday...should I just keep doing what I have been doing (lots of flirting, lots of ****y and funny, etc) and just not make any moves?

If you were paying a lot of attention to her, she probably got use to it. Most women LOVE that kind of attention. If you just stop and ignore her for a little, she will do whatever it takes to get back that attention. When she talks to you just answer but don't make a lot of conversation, look focus on your school work and pretend you are busy or something.
I think there is a technique somewhere in this site that is called the two steps forward and three steps back. I'm too lazy to look it up. But what I'm telling you is based on that.
Just work on it, it works. If you don't want to wait, just make a move. Look for that window thou. Timing is everything when it comes to hooking up.
Good luck man and just let us know if you need more advice.:up:

Btw, I forgot to mention this: Don't drag it. She will loose interest after a while.

Sorry to say bro... opportunity lost.
You're still in highschool though... which means if she sees you with another girl all flirty... those feelings she had for you could come back and she may wanna get in bed with you. But ultimately don't waste anymore time.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

you should sit by another girl or talk to another gilr instead of her so that way she can see you talking to other girls. Trust me that will work, i used to get another girls number infront of the girl that i actually liked and next thing you know the girl i like is offering her number to me so we can study together. This is in college though so i dont know...
