"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.

Ok something happened to me today, and I want to know if I misread the situation or if it's something a straight guy would do.

ok I'm sitting down at a computer in my college computer lab, writing some stuff down. this guy walks up from somewhere and sits at the computer next to me doing his own thing for awhile. then he goes

guy: hey bro can i borrow your pen (i look at him and the way he's looking and asking gives me a wierd vibe), but i give him the pen. he uses it for awhile and gives it back saying thanks.

then he goes

what year are you in?
me: 2nd without looking at him, and staring at the screen
guy: what are you taking
me: bio and psych, again without looking and my face probably looked a little negative
guy: (after i dont respond for a couple secs) ok thanks again
me: yea no problem (and he leaves)

now im just wondering am I right in my judgement that this guy was gay or is this something you would see a straight guy doing @ college. to me this seems like the kind thing a straight guy would say to a girl when trying to pick her up.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Maybe, maybe not. Maybe he just wanted to meet people. A lot of people in college don't have friends so they are just trying to make friends.

I agree with this post, and therefor I am quoting it.

Just because some dude tried to strike up a conversation with you doesn't mean he's trying to hit on you. I'm not sure if you're homophobic or simply have too large of an ego, but from the threatened tone I'm guessing the first. Don't worry mate, when a gay guy sees a straight guy the last thing he's probably thinking is how to get in his pants. IMO they're probably wondering how the hell we go around with our skin and hair looking like that :p

Chill. He seems like a perfectly normal and polite guy to me, who's just trying to make some friends! I started several conversations today on campus with students waiting for their classes.. Half of them were dudes... Nothing wrong with meeting new people! Don't assume that just cuz a dude wants to start a conversation with you, that he's gay! He is probably in search of friends! I'm trying to build a social circle at school...
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Padron Reserve maduro in hand while finishing my b
If he was tapping morse code on the floor while mouthing he wants you to "bite the pillow" that would indicate he was looking for something more than your pen.

You read too much into it (but keep a condom in your wallet just in case you do fall and slip on one).
