"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.

Would this come off as creepy? I'm trying to think of how it could be done to eliminate that feeling to the girl.

Here's what I've thought up, haven't tried yet.

Make eye contact with a girl walking in opposite direction you're driving. Stopping and reversing (or stopping short if spotted one another sooner)

Drive up, window down say:

Hi, this is totally random for me but I couldn't help but notice you were checking me out and I thought I'd be polite by stopping and giving you a chance to talk to me (all said with a smile)

What do you guys think? Any pointers from someone who has actually gamed this way?

There have been way too many cute girls walking their dogs or what not now that summer is here.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Did it many times and like it but Im not pick up artist nor natural, Im more the pragmatic type and go straight to the point.

I usually slow down, glass window down and with a relaxed funny voice (as to make the moment less tense) I ask stuff like " heeeey hows going pretty".

Even before than your car it depends from the vibes you give.

The driving part is irrelevant. (Unless you are driving an exceptional car)

How would a chick react if you walked up out of the blue and used this line?

It's all in the context and how you pull it off.

I suspect you would get better results walking as she could at least check you out a little.

Speaking for myself, (I am female myself), my female friends, and my sister (who have all had this happen to them and commented), this is either alarming, creepy, pathetic, or outright scary, especially if it's dark.

I deliberately walk on the side of the sidewalk that goes against the flow of traffic for this reason because it's so creepy when it happens.

What's even creepier is when you walk away and THEY CONTINUE TO MOVE THEIR CAR. Like, no! I'm walking away. Don't move at the pace I'm trying to get AWAY.

This line: "this is totally random for me but I couldn't help but notice you were checking me out and I thought I'd be polite by stopping and giving you a chance to talk to me (all said with a smile)" is also way too arrogant and assuming. Like, really? Oh how kind that you gave me a chance to talk to you...

Some people might be able to pull this off, but keeping in mind that you also need to get past the creepiness factor of the fact that you've approached her from your car... I would say that unless that woman is very clearly flirting with you whilst you're in your car, I wouldn't do it.

Like someone said, it's the vibe you give off. And having a nice car doesn't hurt either. :) It can be done. You've got to be in the zone for this one though....with plenty of charm.

A simple Hi would work. If they stop and say Hi back, then great, they know why you stopped. If they keep walking, then Next! haha
 

"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.

Yup. I know a lot of very good looking women who absolutely HATE when guys do this. It's not even a "i don't like it, but i kinda do" thing. It's just comes off threatening and creepy. If you had a nice car, with some friends, and were good looking...maybe. It's almost a prostitution gesture when a guy pulls over, leans to the passenger side and starts working his "magic".

Honest to God I wouldn't suggest it.
