"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.

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.

Are you hitting yourself with dumbells when you curl? If thats the case then theres two problems,

Poor form,
And you're hitting yourself

Either that or you might have a slight strain. I think strains and pulls can cause bruising.

Sometimes I get muscle soreness, but I've never bruised myself from weight lifting. Kickboxing is another story though.

Might have a very small tear.
