"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.

"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.

What women know unless you aren't a nice guy from the get go.
No man with a penis is really your friend
You say he is, but it's all pretend
He listens to your problems every time he phones you
But he's really not, he just wants to bone you!
Case closed.

I like how all the chicks were all like "Yes!"
and the guys are like "well....I don't know"
Basically these women are saying these guys are only friends cuz they tried and failed to get the ass.
I don't see anything wrong with that, but people need to see it for what it is. Somebody is gonna like the other one at some point in time

Or they didn't try at all.BlackMack177 said:
But on another note, it's kind of like a girl who you don't find attractive trying to be "friends" with you. It's happened to me before and when they have emotional diarrhea on you, it's kind of uncomfortable.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
At first I thought he just got a bunch of chicks to say yes and guys to say no. But then he went back and asked the same chicks if their guy friends would sleep with them, and the y all basically admitted it. There is a huge disconnect between what guys and girls see as friendship.

They should have asked if those women had ever felt attracted to their guy friends, even a little bit. Furthermore, I found it really interesting how these chicks know about their friends having sexual desires towards them and they are perfectly fine with it. Ha ha. You can pull off a "friendship" if you have got self-control, and the other thing is that you sometimes like the personality as well.

I think given certain circumstances, men and women can be just friends.
My friend, who can get almost any women he wants, has a few girl friends. However, I think a few of these girl have feelings for him, but realize after a while that they can't have him. They still remain friends, though.

"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.
