"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.

Okay, I now have cleared my face of unsightly pimples. Now here comes the problem -- I have some pimple scars.

I must admit I love popping those things, I guess the regrets do come later.
Now they look like small craters.

Anything I can do to remove this small scars?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

You'll need to get procedures done by a dermatologist.

These procedures are not covered by health insurance either.

Isn't microdermabrasion or something like that a procedure for smoothing out your skin?

I used to have a couple zits, luckily I don't scar easily so you could never tell I used to have a couple zits. I think getting a tan would help. Hmm, or maybe even a chemical skin peel.

Acne spots

Hi I don't really get zits anymore, thank god. However I do still have red dots on my cheeks and a little on my forehead. I use clearisil and it works on actual zits but not on these little dots. Any help on how to get rid of them?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I fake bake and all my existing acne seems to fade. I go for a short short while though, since I'm on my last cycle of Accutane.

Sounds to me like you have residual scarring. The best way to take care of this is to head to your dermatologist and ask for either a topical lotion that he can prescribe you or see what the other options you have are. If they really bother you, you might even consider laser treatment... I did that to eliminate some red marks & freckles - everything I wanted done only cost $100. Vain, sure. Happy, definitely.

By the way, the thread "pimple scars" has been merged with this one.
