Remember the days when you liked a girl, called her up, talked for hours, asked her out in advance, stressed over where to take her, and got nervous when dropping her off (do we kiss, hug, high-five)? Remember how fun that was?! Okay, it may not have been fun for you, but take it from a girl who’s been ‘courted’ a time or two, its fun for us.

We know the effort it takes to plan a date that makes you look cool while at the same time promises to keep her entertained and well fed. Putting thought into it at all, i.e. having a plan, will make her think that you care. Making her think that you care will boost your chances of getting her to like you (unless you are terrible in which case I can’t help you). I know this sounds simple, but in the days of the *lnbt, old school courting has taken a back seat. Therefore it’s time to get in the driver seat and turn on your navigation system. I guarantee you’ll get to where you are going faster.

Love you mean it,
Deb

*LNBT; late night booty text- Where you put in no effort at all and we come running.

To call or not to call…that is the question!?

Okay guys listen up. We know you love to text us because it makes it easier for you to feel out if we actually like you or not. Depending on our response, or lack there of, you’ll be able to quickly determine if the feelings are mutual, or if we just gave you our digits because you asked for them, and we didn’t want to create an awkward situation by saying “haha, that’s cute, but no.” Now if the former is true and you have established a mutual connection through flirtexting, then there will come a point in your relationship when texting will either lead to a call or it won’t.

If you are having a hard time figuring out if you should call her or not, we’re going to make it real simple for you. Answer the following questions honestly to know whether you should be calling her:

• Do you strategically word your text messages to her so that you don’t look like a complete douche?
• Do you get annoyed if she waits more than 3 hours to respond to your thoughtfully crafted flirtext?
• Do you think about her when you are sober or outside the hours of 10pm-6am?
• Do you check her FB page more than 2 times a week?
• Do you click to read what she posts on other guys FB pages?
• Have you brought her name up to at least two of your friends, in the last two days?

If you answered yes to more than three of these questions, then you like her. In which case, you should be dialing her number as we speak.
