"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.

dude, you just proved what i said.

the input is fine. its the output where they are screwed.
Okay, I follow you. Makes sense. It just seems to me like it's more in the processing stage that they get screwed up. Input - understood. Processing - bombarded with too much conflicting "logic"...can't process, Output - "I'm totally, utterly confused!"
 

"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.

OK, she dumped you for pork chop? She might be thinking you're too good for her, and I'm serious. Not every women has this outstanding self-esteem and thinks she can marry up. Some do, many don't.
Nah, not this one. She's pretty well put together. Makes tons of money. I didn't see any inferiority issues, but I'm sure you are right about some women.

OK, that may be a good answer from someone who feels that he is not at the point in life, but if she is at point, then she has every right to lose interest - even if she is still attracted to you (and you may be overplaying just how attracted she was to you.) Some dude came along and gave her the answer that she was looking for.
I think you have the girls confused.

The chick who asked me "where do you see this going" was the LTR, and she was TOTALLY attracted to me, even through the end. Up until I dumped her and she found a new man, then I was a piece of sh!t, but that's another story....

The one who is getting married, there WAS a dude who came along while we were seeing each other, but we weren't even technically in a relationship and had never had any kind of serious relationship talk.

This isn't 100% true but I'd say that it is 90% true: Women are givers to their children, now and/or future unborn. She cares about them more than she cares about herself. But when it comes to men, women are takers. Their primary biological drive is to secure resources AND the best sperm for themselves and their children. If that means nabbing a chode for a LTR (to provide) and having flings with a bad boy alpha dude (for the sperm), a lot of them will do it.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
