I met about 400+ girls last summer and I became very good at texting.<p>Rule #1, never get mad or upset at them by text.  Ever.<p>Rule #2, never appear weak or unsure.  Never qualify what you say.<p>Rule #3, girls 99% of the time respond but people get busy.  Sometimes I want to respond to a text but I want my mind to be more clear or I get distracted.  Or you just don&#x27;t feel so social.  Or you are depressed, sick, busy etc.  Some are in school and working.  Some have boyfriends.<p>Sometimes girls don&#x27;t respond until the next day and occasionally they don&#x27;t respond at all.  But then just wait and in 1 or 2 weeks, send a friendly photo, casually invite them to an invite or say a funny joke or observation.<p>People get busy and a lack of response means nothing.<p>Also I like to invite them places or tell them what I am doing.  But going out is a lot of energy and money.  And some don&#x27;t like crowds.<p>So at some point, you should be direct, or ask them on a proper date or what not.  But never confide via text how much you like someone, unless you already hooked up.<p>And sometimes I&#x27;ll send a dangerous text, like I told this girl to call me whenever she felt like being &quot;dirty&quot; with a bit of provocative language.  She did not respond to it.  But she responded and I just push forward.  Never look back, never apologize (generally speaking).<p>There is no such thing as a friend zone.  You can be just friends but occassionally flirt and don&#x27;t diminish yourself as a sexual being.  Lack confidence?  Work out, take a class.<p>And if you don&#x27;t look like Brad Pitt or aren&#x27;t noticeably rich, the girls might not stumble over each other to get to you.<p>But you can get them.  Girls don&#x27;t know what they want, they are easily persuaded and lazy.  (This goes for all people.)
