should I say Happy Ny?
"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.
Went NC and she's said Merry Xmas

"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.

I agree, ignore it. She is probably wondering what you are up to but doesn't want to flat out ask you that. Whenever people I like send me "Merry Xmas" I reply "Happy St. Patrick's Day to you too".. When people I don't care about send it, I ignore 100%.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I'm assuming she sent the merry xmas text 8 days ago on christmas?
And you're wondering if you should send a "happy new year" text a day after new years? Seriously...
You need to get out and meet other women; or get a hobby more occupying than women. Continue to ignore her and move on with your life.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Ignore. It's no longer your business to care about what kind of year she has.

But isn't rude of me not to wish her happy new year because she wished me merry Xmas?
I did wish her merry Xmas back and we small talked for a while then she went silent.

No, you move on for your sake, not for hers. You don't care what she might perceive as "rude," you're moving on for you.jackreacher20155 said:
