"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.

Was this a test, or blowing me off, or she chickened out?

I have been chatting with this chic on facebook for awhile. She was the one that messaged me first, we have good rapport, I have knew her since grade school.
She works part time at a full service gas station. So I pulled in there today to get gas and she ignores me and the other chick that was working there pumped my gas. She did wave at me when I was leaving but something just didn't seem right?
Should I go no contact? Or message her something ****y and funny about why she didn't pump my gas?

She probably felt a little embarrassed and caught off guard. She could be so interested and used to the comfort of safe online FB chatting that she tensed up and didn't want to engage in a face to face chat just yet. I wouldn't take it personal she did at least wave bye.

Yeah dude you live in a small town. No need for Facebook here. Just go talk to her and ask her out.
 

"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.
