"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.

"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.

The truth in life is that we are all replaceable and some things don't last forever.

Instead of being afraid to lose, embrace the nature of change and go after new friends and hos yourself.

The worst thing you can do is to remind yourself of a failed relationship and use that as an indicator of your value as a man.

Part of having the title "friend" is making sure that you have some respect and responsibility for the well being of another. If you disrespect someone and your actions end up hurting someone then you are not a friend. Friends should celebrate life with you and not bring you down.

I say good riddance. Kick the girl and the guy out of your life because its obviously they don't care about you and they have broken the trust that was established between the three of you.

Sounds like she wasn't really your girlfriend and those guys were not truly your friends. Don't waste your time feeling sorry about yourself. Take a moment to think about you you you will do things differently next time and then go out and get a real girlfriend and some real friends. You're probably better off without the lot of them...
 

"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.

WTF, how can you call them friends if you cant trust them?

My friends know that their girlfriends are like guys to me, and so is my girlfriend to my real friends.

i'm very thankful for ur advice, but consider this:

1. i like my friends very much and i don't wanna lose'em
2. in italy, unfortunately, almost everybody is this way... it's a really common thing to steal someone else's girlfriend.

i know it's fùcked up (i can't even think of a friend's girlfriend in a sexual way, it just makes me sick), but what can i do?

“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.
