from me to you.

crucial absolutely do not's for boyz...
(Read & take notes. fer real.)

1. Do not make texting your prime mode of communication. It is the kiss of death.

Note: if you are partaking in texting, be aware of how many you are sending. 62 in a day is WAY too many.
And if she doesn't respond, do not continue to send texts. No, her phone is not dead. No her phone did not get run over by a bus. She is getting every message. If she wanted to respond, she would.


2. Do not call a girl a bitch, ho, or any variation there of of--even if it is in jest, or you think she has a great sense of humor, or her girlfriends use said terminology...we may smile and joke back, but we are not laughing on the inside. Anytime these words leave a mans lips, they sound chauvinistic.

3. Do not brag or glorify substance (ab)use. This is not attractive to girls. Keep it real. Talk about things that make you unique, or talk about how much you like her. We could care less about how great the head shops are near your apartment, or how wasted you got in your dorm room last weekend.

4. Do not fail to call her (back). If you like her, show her how dependable and reliable you are. This will be interpreted as interest and, trust me, it will make you stick out among the masses of other men that are competing for this ladie's attention.

5. Do not assume that you are the only guy fawing for her affections. If you like a girl, it is probably a safe bet that other dudes do too.

Bottom line: You have one shot. Give it your all and don't screw it up.
