"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

So I weigh around 190 lbs. Working on losing some fat so I can see my abs before I start clean bulking again. Looking at my diet, I’m getting around 140-150 g of protein a day. Is this a problem, is it absolutely critical that I get 1 g of protein per pound of body weight?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I don't think it is, but you would probably have an easier time shedding fat. Meeting your caloric goal with a higher protein diet will become much more of a chore, rather than fats or carbs and keep you feeling satiated longer as well, considering you're protein sources come from actual food and not powders.
