We all know that by and large asking advice directly gets some really wonky responses from the majority of women. Some are very self aware and honest and will give good advice anyhow but it still usually just does not compare to observing.

It's not practical for everyone but I'll share a little about my experience.

I have a well established fwb. We've been totally upfront I've never shown a hint of jealousy. In fact I root her on when she has shown me guys on dating apps. Never once made a judgement on her and always gave the best advice I could. We have enough trust now she'll let me in on that shit like I'm her girlfriend. If you can work this out in any way, just friend or fwb the benefits are enormous.

You'll see how horrendous most of your competition really is, trust me you'll feel better about yourself.

She'll share why and what she thought of some things in basically real time, with practical real world scenarios and after the fact, not what she thinks she would probably do.

You'll see some of your own behavior in.others and often without even having her perspective you'll realize the cringe factor.

Regardless of your exact situation, I can just say observe what they do and ask questions after the fact rather than asking hypotheticals or what should I do directly. This is how you get the best advice from women. Anyone who had sisters probably realized this early on.

Next, your best female friend is that party girl you actually want to make moves on. Don't. If you can make friends with any attractive woman with an active social life who has girlfriends....leave the main circle alone. Treat them like lady bros or sisters. Make yourself useful. Walk them to their cars. Watch their stuff. Pretend to be their BF if they ask. Be a bro in the lady circle, be fun and fight any developing crush. ( If you end up with a big mutual crush with one eventually eh hell with it, those can be awesome relationships)

You now know the events and places that are going to attract women in town that I promise you and your buddies would barely find on your own. You often get invited and you show up with women. When you're out, be physically close to one or two sometimes to where casual observers are gonna be left guessing if you're hooking up or not.

Watch how well you're received when you approach a new woman.... It's a staggering difference.
