"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.

say 50-60 hours a week

I don't think I would want that. I would strongly prefer a girl who works 40 hours a week and has a lot more freedom and flexibility

I mainly just want to date someone who doesn't have a lot of debt. I'm cool with them earning 40 or 50K. I don't see a big benefit to date someone who makes 100K if she has to work 55 hours a week to make it
 

"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.

Yes, because that's how.much I work if not more.
I work right at 50 but I live 10 minutes from work, off fridays and sundays and then Saturdays I work 9 to 6 so I have decent freedom and flexibility

Lucky you, I'm closer to 60 plus PHd school.

don't you live in LA where 150K is garbage anyways??

I'm gonna have my house paid for 3 in years, I will live like a king on 2800-3300 a month while making 14K a month. My situation is so unbelievably awesome. I try to be very grateful everyday
