"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.

Seems like another class mate has committed suicide .Damn also her brother was on the call who was a fire fighter.
 

"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.

Very sad. It always seem to be very decent and worthwhile folks who go this route, while those whom the planet is legitimately better off without who end up overstating their welcome

If it is a self inflicted gun shot would blame access to guns. All you need is a bad moment and an impulse decision. Notice how nobody slits their own throat? It gun access.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

here in the UK everyone just walks in front of trains.
Friend of mine done that a few months back. Such a nice, seemingly happy-go-lucky young guy. Dropped his son off at school and then walked in front of the train after leaving a quick facebook update about how life is magical and we are what we leave behind.

none of us quite know.
I've heard possibly debt. Don't know much about his relationship with his girlfriend/mother of his kid, but I don't think it was ideal. (don't think she went too the funeral)
But every who knew him was in complete shock as he seemed like the LEAST likely guy to do that to himself!
he was like a really chirpy, friendly, sociable guy. Good athlete, too! (I played football (soccer) with him, and he was very talented!)

Well that's rough. Of course, if she did so with a guitar string
, her surviving family may have grounds to successfully sue Beck for wrongful death. They'll just need to act promptly, before HE ODs, thus reducing their prospects of sitting across the deposition table from him down to zero

Holy Crap dude, A lot of people in my family, in my Mom's side have recently passed away. A lot of recent celebrity deaths have happened lately and are in the news. I hope you all are doing well and taking care of yourself. My best advise right now is enjoy your life, prioritize spending time with your love ones while you can because you never know when's when.

After deeply immersing myself in the wisdom of QAnon, I've gone to extraneous lengths to maintain a regular Adrenochrome intake... I can attest that doing so = You being in a constant state of refreshment, even as young ladies within your vicinity agonize over their disappeared toddlers
