"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.

I've been with this chick for a few months.. We've got a good relationship knowing that we're both flirty with other people and that's sweet but yea it kind of stops at grinding with someone else.. Drew that line in the sand early on.

A couple of weeks ago I walked into a club after work to meet her and she's dancing with this dude I'd caught her on two other occasions with.. The ok-to-flirt premise seems to have been over-stepped because it's the same guy? I dump her because I was drunk as all hell. We sort it out, myself reluctantly and not really being able to trust her.

I find out she's been texting him now.. I've called a break to be sure of my decision.. dump her or not?
 

"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.

If the trust isn't there then it isn't going to work.

Down South. Between the Y junction.
Are you still getting any action from her?

In your mind it should be all over, but stay the course so that the tap doesn't run dry, but get busy and start looking for other chicks.
