"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.

Uncomfortable hitting on women in bars/clubs

Why? The music is usually very loud and it is annoying to talk over the music.

It is VERY HARD to tell if the girl is with somebody. The last thing I need is some jealous guy getting in my face or sucker punching me for talking to his girl.

E.G. I see cute girls all the time in bars/clubs and I get a decent amount of looks from some of these women. However, most of the time there is a guy or two in their area who appears to be with their group.

As a general rule if there are other guys in their group, I stay away.

What is your take on this?
 

"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.

if theres a problem they will let u know. obviously dont go up to a girl who is making out / dancing with a guy

but otherwise just go and see what happens. some girls just go with guys and are club friends. i went to clubs with girls and danced with them but we hit on other people. thats what a lot of people do. its more fun when u go to a club in a group.

Hitting on girls at the club is much easier for me than other places. I have hit on plenty of woman at clubs and have never got punched. If a guy says something than say I am sorry I did not know you guys were together and simply walk away. If you want to talk to girls in the club than talk to them. It is really stupid reason not to talk to a girl because your scared of getting you ass kicked.

I find it much more difficult to approach girls on the street. Coffeeshops, bookstore, etc. Everyone is sober and the game is much faster. It just seems that many people on this site say coffee shops and bookstores are a great place to sarge but to me it seems every girl is busy reading or has a b12tch shields up.

Do you think that it's easier in clubs because there's more things readily available to talk about or do?
 

"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.

Corvette and lookyoung, great answers! *Hi-5!*

Stop being afraid of rejection. You'll face it eventually. Don't be a creep! If you're getting checked out by those women, get off your ass and talk to them!
