WARNING: These are HANDBOOK POSTS -- WRITTEN A LONG TIME AGO by some great women with great thoughts and deemed as handbook worthy by FDS mods for a reason. If you feel triggered or disagree with something -- THE SMART THING TO DO IS TO MOVE ON. Agree to disagree and go on your merry way. Stop trying to start bullsh*t in the comment section because I have no patience to deal with you.

As a woman, it's not your job to pursue men. Dating should be a stress-free experience for you.
When a man is truly interested in you, he will text you first and take you out on dates without much effort on your part apart from your warm "yes!"
As a woman, it's not your task to make things happen. All you need to do is to sit back, relax, and let him show you how much he really likes you.
If he's not stepping up to the plate, calmly next him and meet other men to increase your chances of finding a great guy who will love you.
When you take on the masculine role by texting him first and planning dates, you don't give yourself the opportunity to filter out half-interested men who will give you nothing but anxiety and grief.
You're not being "independent" by asking for his number and making plans with him. You're making it too easy for him.
He should be the one showing you that he's worth your time. If a man doesn't try to make things happen with you, he doesn't want you enough to warrant your investment in him.
So ladies, be your best selves, do your own thing, and the right man will come sooner or later.
