"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.

What would you have done in this situation?

Ok today I was walking down a busy street downtown at night when I see 3 girls walking down the street towards me. They were wearing these big belts that had lit up words rolling across a screen on the belt. So trying to read what the belt said on the girl closest to me I basically just stared at the belt while they were still somewhat far away. So when they get closer I look up at the chick and we make EC. I'd put her @ a HB7.5. So anyways the chick says to me "gimme some ****", suprised I start laughing and turn around when they pass, but they just keep walking. Sort of caught me by suprise, and I wasnt sure what to do. What would you have done? Caught back up with her and tried for a number close. I was thinking of going back and not even trying to talk to her, and just being like "ok then give me a number". But like I said caught me by suprise.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

What did she actually say? Gimme some *** -- what?

To answer your question, though, I PROBABLY would have been stunned just like you, and I might have felt good that she said something to me (ego boost), but I probably would have cursed myself for not saying anything back. Then again, my confidence HAS been picking up steam, so I'm probably on the borderline.

What I would LIKE to do in that kind of situation is to turn around and say something back to them, just like what you thought of. And if they don't respond, to run and catch up with them and say something like ... "hey, you can't just say something like that and then not back it up.... So what's your name?" Actually, like I said, atm, I'm not too far off feeling like I COULD do something like that. Tell those girls to walk past ME and I'll find out. :D
