"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.

Last night I received a text from a girl I made out with a few months back. She says "Hey I need your help, can you help me?" I thought it was booty call so obviously I'm very eager to help so I responded "Yes" and followed with a phone call. However she doesn't pick up my call and she texted me saying "It's not urgent but serious. You don't need to call me, I will call you later" then she never called. Then I sent her another text saying "You are scaring me. Hopefully you are OK if you are stressed and you wanna talk to someone you can call me anytime.". She never called. WTF. What do you guys think?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Sounds like she is after attention and she got what she wanted. You to jump.
I don't know if it could have been predicted though. There are alot of things girls do emotional rollercoatser and **** ect don't let it phase you enjoy the ride.

You just sounded like some type of sissy! Girls want men!

Let this be a lesson learned.
 

"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.

I'm very eager
Seems like an attention ***** to me. I could be wrong but either way you made yoursf way to available. All she had to was send you a text saying she needed help, and you flooded her with attention, most likely that's what she wanted anyway so good job "helping" her. If it wasn't important enough for her to call you initially, then it's not important enough for you to call her, especially concerning an issue that ur not involved in(sorry for the run-on sentence). Just forget about it and move on. She wasted your time/energy.

For what it's worth I don't think you did much wrong. Perhaps the last text was not necessary. Honestly, I don't care about what so called Don Juans might have to say about this. If someone says there is something serious going on and they need help, you're a cool guy for offering that help. It's what you should do. That being said, if you find out she does this to get a reaction out of you or it wasn't that serious after all, I would remove her from my life. There is no way I would ever want someone that insincere in my life in any shape or form, not even as a booty call.
