"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.

While I wouldn't consider myself a collector, I do have about 4 or 5 pairs of expensive sneakers. Mostly Jordans and retro Nikes. I like the culture, particularly when they retro old shoes.

It's something I enjoy spending my money on, as opposed to drinks at a bar, car mods, video games, etc. Not saying I don't spend my money on those others things too, I just like buying a nice, new pair every now and then. A few times a year I put my paycheck towards a nice trip to Footlocker.

I'm in my early twenty's, so I might not do it too much longer. I realize mostly young people like basketball sneakers, but I enjoy it and don't really care if it seems immature or materialistic or even like I'm wasting money.

Anyone else here wear Jordans, Nike, etc?

"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.

You're making me want to buy some stocks in Nike.
You should log on to Niketalk, it's an online community like this one... except they collect sneakers. People literally have collections with 100+ pairs!

Haha and I thought women had too many pairs of shoes...

On the other hand, if it makes you happy, and you can afford it, why not? Personally I have never seen the appeal of collecting things (I collect dollars instead) but I do use my money on other things like travel so I don't even have anything to show for it except memories, stories, and a few photos. Who's to say what a good hobby is.

However no, I don't collect sneakers and don't think I ever would.
