"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.

how do you guys answer this question? i usually just say i just havent found the right one yet. but my real reason for not having a gf is because most of the girls i hooked up with already had boyfriends, and it kind of screwed up my trust in girls. i mean if a girl would cheat on her man with me, then my gf might do the same to me. so i try to avoid getting too serious with a chick because i dont wanna get cheated on. (yeah i got issues)
anyway, i was wondering if i should ever let a chick know this when they ask why i dont have a gf? would it help or hurt my game?
 

"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.

Of course not!:wave: Of course not!:nono:

It's not even about your game, it's about common sense.

Ok ok ok ok ok....let me get this straight....you are going to tell a girl you just met that you are single because you sleep with girls that have boyfriends and you have no trust in girls and are worried about them cheating.....

Look at that again......Now think what a girl will think. For starters....it REEKS of insucurity.

If she saw you as any kind of relationship material you are out the window....your scared of commitment plus you spend most time spending time with cheaters (even if your not the cheater it shows you not that arsed by it)

If she saw you as a a quick shag...she wouldnt ask the intial question unless making convo....as she wouldnt care if you had one or not....


My answer to that kind of question is that I just say im quite picky. It DHV. Shows that you dont take ****. It can be seen as too ****y but its how you say it...From here she will say something like "well your confident". Can break into C+F from here.

The other thing i say is that I just aint found Miss Right yet. Normally this is followed by an "awww". Play on from there.


Depends on the type of girl....


Sarge On!

Anytime this happens I always either C&F or go serious on them.

Example if they ask that I would either run bradp's 8 girl routine or make up some C&F on the fly, maybe point over at a girl I know and say thats my gf and go and put my arm around her and kiss her on the cheek

or if I'm going serious I tell them...That I love women and love making them happy, and sharing intense experiences. This always gets them curious about what intense experiences I have to offer.

Don't tell her your real reason. Just be aloof' if you ever get that question.

One thing guys have to realise is that you are NEVER obliged to answer any question that someone asks you. Let alone a question from a chick and let alone one about relationships.

In fact, making a ****y or funny answer is actually better than letting the convo get heavy and serious. You want to keep things light and fun with chicks. Examples off the top of my head: "uh oh, sounds like someone wants to apply for the job!" or "it would be unfair to all the other chicks!". Then you can immediately flip the question back to her (and trust me, chicks WILL be insecure about not having a BF). (By the way, just to answer your question, your suggested answer is terrible - it reeks of insecurity).

Once you develop a "leader"/confident (I hesitate to say alpha, it's so cliche) mindset you will not even feel the need/pressure to respond to something, you will be so in control of the interaction. Instead of being concerned you don't have the "right" answer, or what might hurt your chances you'll be so confident you don't care about their question, and you'll just carry on about leading the interaction to where you want it to go.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

^lol, i like these answers. i think i'll say something similar to this next time. C&F is the shiznit!

ok well, i realize now how insecure my reason is... good thing i havent told any potential mates about it... but it IS hard to trust girls after being with a few cheaters... and it's not like i TARGET girls with bf's, it was mostly coincidence... sometimes girls don't even mention their bf's until after you two already went too far.

Everywhere you want to be.... I'm like a Visa card
"Why are you so curious?"

"What's wrong with being single?"

"Why don't you have a boyfriend?"

"Because I haven't found a girl that can handle me."

"Looking to fill the position? Call my secretary and we'll do lunch."

"Because I don't want one."

"Awfully nosy, aren't you?"

"Awwww...... you DO care!"

Some people are so use to the monotunity that they expect you to have a girl by a certain age. I don't have a girl yet and glad that I don't, because she would probably just get in my way. I get older chicks asking me why don't I have a girlfriend. My answer is right now I'm just just to busy to spend anytime on a single girl. And I will be busy the next couple years

Everything ace of Flames said is brilliant. Then ""It's a highly lucrative position and all the candidates have been underqualified."" is also great.

I guess the principle is to say anything but, "i dont know" haha

"What's wrong with being single" is basically my standard retort to the question. It's also a good qualifying question. ;)

last girl that asked how long I have been single... I responded with a "weeeeeell, ya know, i dunno..." It sounded like I was not telling the truth or I was being shady and she said " ah, u do have a girlfriend dont you!!" It was kind of cool cuz now she was left kind of confused and I think she thought I was some kind of player. :p
