ask a plate out. she said maybe idk yet lol. I said ok let me know soon. this wasn't night. did I respond accordingly? should I maybe follow up?
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.
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.
Ignore a week . Say "maybe not".ask a plate out. she said maybe idk yet lol. I said ok let me know soon. this wasn't night. did I respond accordingly? should I maybe follow up?
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.
Fvck that bytch . Maybe go fvck a good go-to babe.well this was last night and she never responded. I havent said anything back yet
Good man...well this was last night and she never responded. I havent said anything back yet

Spend the 10 minutes to listen to AMS YouTube on validation. Then report back .so never contact again?
Her: Maybe IDK yet
Me (2 hrs later): No problem...I will take advantage of others plans. Take care though
Thats it. I dont circle the wagon back around a week later like other's suggest to do. She knows how to reach me if she wants to smash.
If there is no definite counteroffer for a specific day its dueces. Adios. C-ya.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Still ignore . She's showing off. It's like a guy friend whose not reliable for shyt, but he wants you to be there for him to show offyeah she just snapchatted me a pic of her at the pool lol
Im about to watch that for lunch.I just watched a couple of the AMS videos. Good stuff.
Ryan needs to watch the "when she says we'll see or Ill let you know" video 35 times.
