Write text, look at it for a while, finally press send, throw phone on bed, wait intently for reply.

Stop worrying, just always end your text with a question.

licensetotill · 8 months

"When I started dating girls I had to look up their name in the phone book and then call a land line. What if her last name was Peterson? Then you call 15 different houses until you get the right one. Once she's actually on the line you had to survive an endless onslaught of split second decisions, a gauntlet of prepubescent desire. The silence is painful so you try to spark up a conversation. Your voice cracks. You have no time to think, you can only react. You're knee-deep in this shit now, son, and there's no turning back. Texting might be like defusing a bomb, but that's better than it used to be."

Texting? I used to have to call girls.

effyouyoueffineff · 8 months

and she knows it. the best way to do it is to just do it. be goofy but straight about what you want. don't think of her as a bomb. think of her as a kitten that likes to play. if you're too much of a pussy that kitten is going to to elsewhere.

And this is why the friend-zone exists.

Girls date assholes because assholes are generally either confident, or at least seem to be. Confidence is attractive, it's sexy. Some people take this too far and instead of just seeming comfortable with themselves they act like egocentric douchebags, and they still get girls.

Stop doubting yourself. Even if you fuck up, even if you say something completely stupid, just own it. Make a joke about it, and get her to laugh. You'll be fine.

Oh, and you want people to like you, ask them questions about themselves. The questions themselves aren't as important as the person having the chance to talk to you about what they think and feel, and their life. Give people an outlet to vent and feel like someone gives a shit and they will keep coming back.

Type a serious message to the girl that can't in any way, shape, or form, be interpreted as flirting. Attach a photo of your genitals.

The problem: all the wires are the same color.

[deleted] · 8 months

Doesn't it get old having to make sure to say the right thing and do the right thing so as not to scare someone away? I'm not referring to you specifically, I mean the entire dating world. Wouldn't it all be so much easier if one could just be themself and not worry about judgement or rejection? It's funny how they say to always be honest with your significant other, but how honest were you when trying to woo in said significant other?
Basically, I find myself constantly broken hearted for all the people in my life who are alone, and may continue to be, for the rest of their lives all because of social situations and how they aren't that great at them.
And that's my random rant about how fucked up I think the dating world is.

wtfreak · 8 months

I'm a girl and I think it is funny how you guys get all worked up over something little as a text message. If it helps, girls do the same thing. So, just remember that next time you text her.

I talked a girl I liked into a phone text-based ARG. We played for a while and then she said her phone was dying just as we got to the good part.

I've been trying to eliminate texting from my game until I have Hit the E in D.E.N.N.I.S. I come across completely different. Call the girl instead.

Deadlyd0g · 8 months

Today on the way out of high school I saw the girl I liked and I wanted to say bye to her but she was not standing where I thought she would be, So my brain died and my emergency defense mechanism kicked in, which involves fast walking out of school. I can barely talk to her lol. Fml, and fuck my anxiety. ಠ_ಠ Edit: Phone?! Phone!? I have one but I never ever use it lol you guys.

kinglockjaw · 8 months

More like how I feel talking to anyone. Hooray social anxiety!

HA is funny because the bomb could blow up very easilly and kill you! And if you mess up texting a girl she won't fuck you! So in both circumstance you need to be very careful! That's why it's so funny!

texting a girl I like right now. Damn bitch didn't text back. Fuck, don't like her no more. Here that BITCH!?

CheifEditer · 8 months

Having had this particular bomb explode on me tonight I am going to up-vote everything posted here (unless you are being condescending).

Skalywag · 8 months

I always pictured it more like brain surgery. When I mess up, I don't kill myself, but rather kills others; as in our future children.

Ghstfce · 8 months

The whole problem is caring so much about what you send. You worry so much about making mistakes that you make plenty more than if you could care less. Stop being so analytical and be yourself dammit. Trust me, texting was made so that you were more relaxed talking to a girl. Well, not for that purpose mind you, but it helps.

[deleted] · 8 months

So fucking true! Also, drunk redditing, perhaps.

CJ_Guns · 8 months

And then you get to the point where you are paranoid that they are completely annoyed with you texting them and you just stop texting all together to preserve yourself...and then you wait for them to text you. If they do, you're golden.

Job Description?: "I'm an advanced biologically dependent technological surgeon" Girl: "What does that mean? I've never heard of that kind of surgery" Me: "I diffuse ticking time bombs and walk away non-chalantly" Girl: "GET IN MY PANTS!"

rovio · 8 months

Write text. Look at it for two seconds, spotting several mistakes. Ponder what to alter, realize that altering only makes it worse and send.

guy_guyerson · 8 months

For the love of god, someone please explain to me why that bomb is made of medicine and a stethoscope and being defused by a doctor. I guess I don't text enough, because I have no idea what this mixed metaphor is supposed to relate.

abjection9 · 8 months

pinkswansays · 8 months

Thought this problem was over with texting...Oh yeah, its not. Still somehow manage to send myriads of awkward texts.

patrik667 · 8 months

The problem IS texting. It was harder yet somehow easier with a phone. Text messages, even if you're joking, can be interpreted by the current mood of the girl. Say "I heard a guy got hit by a car last night nearby your place, was it you just tired coming from work?" in a context where she's having a nice day and it'll be funny, she'll laugh and enjoy it. Say it when she was DUI and actually almost hits a dog and you just fucked up all chances you had.

Then, you never know what she's actually doing. If you don't get a reply within a minute you start panicking "OMG, did I just offend her? did she just read my message and now she's ignoring it because I sound dumb?" when she's probably just trying to run to and from the bathroom for a quick pee to get back to texting you: this lowers your self esteem and your confidence and girls notice this!

Always text what you are feeling, except when there are boundaries (friend zoning boundaries, "let's take it slow" boundaries and so on). Even in that case, dilute what you really want to say and say it anyway.

If there's a single good advice to give to guys hitting on girls is "BE YOURSELF"; not what you maybe think she would want you to be.

tl;dr: I just dodged a friendzoning "we should talk" and made it into a blooming relationship with an amazing girl, felt like giving advice.
