"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.

Righto, so I never had that much acne a year or two ago, lately I've had a few breakouts but It's been ok. That's not the problem, I've got some scars from past breakouts which don't look too flash.

I actually don't mind them too much, it's not really that bad, but I am getting a job as a topless waiter where your body is the product and I gotta look real good for that. I'd like to have clear skin for the gigs, does anyone know how to get rid of scars short of chem peels and lasers and whatnot?

Also, I've sometimes I get these little lumps of fat underneath my skin, they are larger than pimples, and if I try to pop them they won't budge. (not that I should be popping them anyway).

I have no clue what they are, but they take aaaaages to go away, and almost always leave a scar. Anyone had this before?

Cheerios,

Lust.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Are they scars or just red marks? Nothing will get rid of scars except for deep peels, laser treatments or fillers. You can accelerate the removal of red marks with superficial peels and wearing sunscreen, but otherwise they will fade with time.

Those lumps sound like cystic/nodular acne. If you're getting this type of acne frequently you should see a doctor/dermatologist because, like you said, they cause scarring.

Hmm ok cheers. I think it's a bit of both, some may be red marks while others scars.

I'm a bit iffy about going to see a dermo, I don't trust them...
