"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 live with this girl and this girl has a daughter 14 years old, which has an attention deficit disorder. My personal problem is this daughter and the kitchen. That demon child can drink tea or eat some food, and after herself leave a mess. How to communicate to her that she has to leave everything clean?

I've tried:

telling her
kicking her ass
prohibit her from entering kitchen


right now I'm in process of making her clean sh1t when I see a mess. difference now is that she won't only clean the table, but now she has to wash floor, dishes, toilet, and if she screws up, she does it over and over again, until I am satisfied.


P.S. she used to write on her hands, I solve this problem by kicking her ass for it. but now her mom won't let me do it and she herself can't really offer a solution.
 

"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.
