It's a Friday night out. One of your guy friends points out a girl he's interested in across the room, and you realize she's a friend from English class. He asks you to put in a good word for him, but you can't help to wonder "Why me?" Instead of the typical two guy wing man combination, a girl can help you more than you think.

We will talk you up.

There's nothing that could make you sound better than a good girl friend's version of you. No, you are not as cool as you think, but if we can stand you then maybe another girl can too.

We know exactly what a girl wants to hear.

We've been in this situation before. We know what to say and what not to say.

DON'T: "My guy friend over there thinks you're really hot and wants to talk to you."

DO: [after much girl wooing] "Actually, my best guy friend is so much better at telling this joke, let me grab him real quick!"

You won't have competition from us.

We aren't trying to get anything out of the conversation besides helping you and making you look good, whereas another guy might rip on you in front of her in an attempt to make a joke. We also won't compete with you for her attention... unless we get into a great conversation, then you should just leave for awhile.

We can earn her trust far quicker and better than you can.

This is just a fact. We are not pursuing her, so we don't have to try hard to impress her (she doesn't have to worry about which fake number she'll give this time). A girl-to-girl conversation beforehand will be exponentially better than if you went in solo.

We know how to work the conversation.

We've been in plenty of situations where we had to "woo" another girl: sorority recruitment, getting a friend to help you with homework, meeting a boyfriend's sister, etc. The basic guide: First, get a feel for the girl and direct the conversation based on her interests. Once you find something in common with her, latch onto it and go into more detail to gain her admiration and trust. Tell a few jokes, let her talk about herself, and pay attention to something that could draw your friend in. After a strong foundation is established, introduce the guy and see what happens.

A guy won't always give up his chances with a girl for a friend.

A direct quote: "Honestly, it would be weird to set my guy friend up with someone. Even though I know her, I probably wouldn't want another guy coming in because I want to keep the option open with her." Of course.

Once we've done the initial work, it's all up to you guys. Go forth and prosper! If you fail, it's all on you. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
