"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.

Met a girl on OkCupid earlier this week (yeah, first red flag lmao), we agreed to meet up and I got her number. Her texting was sporadic.. I tried to set something up earlier this week but she didn't respond. Figured I'd try again later. A few days pass and she hits me up yesterday asking ME out for tonight. I tell her where to meet me and the time (7pm). At 6:30 she texts me saying that she's gonna be 15 minutes late. I arrive to the bar at 7:15. She's not there. In a 45 minute period I text her twice AND call her (goes straight to voicemail). No responses from her at all.

Is it wrong that I HOPE she was in a car accident or is in a serial killers basement right now?

EDIT: LMAO! Checked her page on the site, it says she's online..
 

"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.

I guess I would do the online dating if I was older and didn't get out much (I'm 22 now).. But for the most part I say fvck online dating.

A few girls I was out with one night were telling me about how they would make fake OKcupid accounts and message/text a guy to meet one of them at some bar, then when he'd show up they'd just start laughing hysterically then text him all sorts of fvcked up sh1t like "Oh you're not that cute I left"..

How immature can those chix possibly be? They must have a lot of time on their hands to be texting a dude that much just for 1 joke.. It is kind of funny lol. I'm glad I can swindle a few free drinks out of those girls, otherwise I wouldn't even let them be seen with me.

Did you ever have a phone conversation with her?

For all we know, it could have been a fat old guy sitting on the PC giving innocents false hopes.

Maybe she thought you were a loser that posts on sosuave and got cold feet meeting you. Wow. First time ever. Guess you are not a stood-up virgin anymore. Congratulations!
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Good point. But she called me at some point and left a message, so I know she's real.

just when you think women couldn't get any more stupid...they seem to surpass your expectations.lol these are the same chicks who will find themselves in a relationship where they get their teeth knocked out of their head for a year or so every other night and then ***** and moan about it to you like you're supposed to feel sorry for them. i wouldn't let them buy me a drink, they could keep their dirty money for all i care.

i would rather be stood up and not spend a dime on a chick that wasn't interested in me, then to have to spend an entire night with one and spend money on one and THEN figure out she wasn't interested in me a few days later with her bull$hit flakiness and not returning texts/calls and leaving you to figure it all out on your own.

Don't call her again as you've called her and sent messages. You don't want to appear desperate now do you? Sounds like you should ice her and just move on. Save some face as you haven't had a date with her yet.

That does sound a little like your ego got bruised and you are pissed off. nothing wrong with that but I hope you don't make this worse by flying off the handle on her voicemail. Again I have to say just move on.

This last bit to me sounds AFC to me. Again you got to move on. Don't let this girl make you go into oneitis. You haven't even dated her period so there is no reason to be this enamored with her man.

Don't overanalyze. Charge it to the game!

Lol tell me about it.. The funny part is all of these girls are below 5. I don't get how the fvck they can possibly think they're even worthy of the said guy's time.
