"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.

Body Language in reference to dominance, sexuality, etc.

The DJ Bible has a few paragraphs, but I think we should try to get something detailed. If communication is mainly body language, shouldn't there be a bigger focus on that than what to say?

Teach me what you know, or point me in the direction of the knowledge.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

There's a great book out there on body language that isn't well known in this community. It's called Star Quality: Seven Steps to Develop Your Charismatic Power and it's by Christen Brown. I just looked it up on Amazon and you can get a used hardcover copy of it for $4.70. It's the only book I've ever found on this topic that is full of PRACTICAL tips for improving your body language and communication and I'd highly recommend it.

too much analyzation and phylosophies
 

"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.

Just trying something in addtion to the DJ bible, to supplement what I feel is my weak area. I've seen myself on camera, and I can seem feminine sometimes, even when I think I'm being normal.

Not analyzing a problem, just looking for a solution.

Thanks for the list, but those, in my opinion, are crap.

I've read them and got nothing useful out of them. Too much general statements and as Kidd would say, they have "too much analyzation and phylosophies ". I just want something practical that I can apply.
