I met about 400+ girls last summer and I became very good at texting.

Rule #1, never get mad or upset at them by text. Ever.

Rule #2, never appear weak or unsure. Never qualify what you say.

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't feel so social. Or you are depressed, sick, busy etc. Some are in school and working. Some have boyfriends.

Sometimes girls don't respond until the next day and occasionally they don'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.

People get busy and a lack of response means nothing.

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't like crowds.

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.

And sometimes I'll send a dangerous text, like I told this girl to call me whenever she felt like being "dirty" 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).

There is no such thing as a friend zone. You can be just friends but occassionally flirt and don't diminish yourself as a sexual being. Lack confidence? Work out, take a class.

And if you don't look like Brad Pitt or aren't noticeably rich, the girls might not stumble over each other to get to you.

But you can get them. Girls don't know what they want, they are easily persuaded and lazy. (This goes for all people.)

Sorry but 400? What?
I meant to clarify. I volunteered at a hostel this summer doing activities. So every morning I had to talk to girls at breakfast and invite them to hikes or beer pong.

I also met a dozen girls or so girls a week out in LA. I was going out almost every day and night though.

I also had a friend with a ridiculously amazing condo so I'd bring girls there. The condo didn't help that much but the confidence probably did.

Even with all this, it was exhausting and annoying to meet girls. 99% seem uninteresting and mean; only text me to invite them somewhere. And I was just friends with most.

I'm somewhat of a misanthrope. People in general are selfish and weird. Accepting people as flawed creatures and focusing on the positives have helped a lot.

Edit- Travelling and staying in hostels rejuvenated my faith in others. I highly recommend it.
