"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.

To the poster "Downlow," you seemed to find it quite funny when I revealed that she has a nine-year-old daughter. I'd like to read your perspective. She even proposed that we use our cell phones and take pictures of ourselves sometime holding each other in intimate wear (underwear, etc.), but I said "absolutely not."
She's been looking for a substitute daddy (gullible self-loathing type who'll tend another man's farm) for NINE YEARS without success. Of course she's desperate. Is she willing to harm herself? Again, of course. She set herself up to be pumped 'n dumped yet again by a man she barely knows.

Take it from someone who's been there. Clingly now, abusive/neglectful soon and forever more.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
