"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.

Hey guys,

Im kinda embarassed, but my backne (acne on my back) has gotten pretty bad.
I shower daily, and use a chest, sholders and back acne soap from CVS. I also use cetaphil on by back daily. But this hasnt helped very much.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to help eliminate my backne.

thanks
 

"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.

Hmm Im using Differin gel at the moment, its a prescription only topical gel. I have been given a referal by a GP to go see a Dermatologist, so I will probably end up on accutane as my acne on my shoulders is near cystic level.

What sort have you got? Ordinary pimples or hard red sores that dont come to a white head? If it's the latter, accutane is probably the most effective drug, but it involves regular blood tests etc and there are a couple of side effects like drying skin, and drying lips.

Antibiotics (minocycline, tetracycline) can also be used to treat this kind of acne, probably not as guaranteed to work as roaccutane

Use a body scrub with an exfoliant. It removes the dead skin and oil and other crap that's clogging your pores. Or if you live in a "trendy" area (Miami, NYC, SoCal) the new thing is back facials (with clay or charcoal...like a mud mask). Get one every few months, and you'll never have bacne again.

Or you could get diagnosed by a Dermatologist with back acne and get acne extraction "facials" that your health insurance will cover in addition to whatever prescription oral antibiotics & topical gels.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

Dont take hot showers. Avoid eating simple starches (processed white bread, white rice) and stay clear of coffee, tea and any cola.

Actually, one's diet does not cause acne. Not even dirt on the skin causes acne. Acne is caused by oils building up in the skin, and causing an infection. This is usually caused by hormones or stress...

I'd see a dermatologist.
