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.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
Landon7 said:I have moderate acne, about 2 zits on my upper lip area, two on each cheek and a ton of small light red scars (I had severe for awhile). It doesn't affect me at all.. I still get IOI's. I still have girls flirt with me... In fact, one of my close buddies has a gorgeous girlfriend and he has a ton of big pimple covering his cheek.
The trick is; if you let it get to you, it will destroy you. If you have confidence and act like it doesn't affect you then you'll be okay.
For the record I jerk it everyday and it clears my face. The masturbation and acne is a placebo. If you feel it helps it, it will, vice versa.
TIP: Place a clean towel on your pillow every night. Get a tan, it helps. Drink a lot of water and eat healthy (This will help everything). AND MOST OF ALL: Get acne soap and a cream. Wash your face twice a day and place cream on twice a day. Don't do too much or rub in too much. Overdoing it will only hurt it more. (I used to overdo it all the time when I panicked with acne. I washed my face 4 times a day and used all kinds of ****... It only hurts it.
And lastly: If a girl EVER dissed you out because you have acne, she's not worth it in the first place!
