"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.

You are doing NC right when...

-She invites you to her birthday party only reserved for a close few
-She sends you images and texts of her partying/ socialising
-Tries to call you from another phone
-acts awkward when you are around

Of course I'm not reacting nor replying. Heck, I have a road trip planned with two dutch ladies on the night of her party :D Not to mention picking myself up, joining the gym, wardrobe rethink (which has my plates/ girls giving me 'the look') and tackling life head on.

... Or is it simply I'm the one failing because it has got me mildly annoyed?
 

"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.

Yeah mate.

And this time compared to previous, I learnt to say no thanks to being just friends because she said she just was not ready. I don't think she expected it because she's your typical HB 9.5 who works as a model. I keep kicking myself wondering how things may have gone had I not gone AFC on her but you lose some, you win some.

Well to me,you doing NC correctly doesn't have anything to do with HER. So her trying to call you or sending you pics means nothing.


To me,you know you're doing "No Contact" right when you're so wrapped up in your own life......school,work,hobbies,family and friends,that the thought of her almost NEVER crosses your mind.
