"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.

Does anyone know a good pair of earplugs to wear while sleeping?

I can't stand being woken up by the sound of my roommate ****ing random girls anymore. I need to be up all day tomorrow and they wake me up with them stomping in at 2 something in the morning. Then all I can hear is her getting ****ed. I can't stand this anymore. It doesn't help that it's not just the sound, the truth is I'm envious of the guy. I can't get laid if my life depended on it and he's with different girls all the time. I doubt I'll ever get good with girls let alone as good as him. And I don't need the sound as a reminder. So anyone know any good earplugs so I can get a good night's rest?
 

"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.

just put some headphones on. you should be ok.
I don't find it comfortable to sleep with headphones on. I want to find a pair of earplugs that are comfortable to sleep with (and which are effective at blocking sound).
 

"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.

I prefer using a box fan. The noise drowns out virtually everything and makes for a pleasant sleeping environment.

Probably the problem is not the sound itself but what's behind it,if you just finished fvcking like your mates you would not probably pay all that attention to the noise and fall asleep.

About ear plugs,I worked in the night for some months so got used to sleep in day time and needed ear plugs for the everyday noises but yet didn't find any that completely isolate,you can still hear something even if the sound is weaker.
And also keep in mind that noises are different than vibrations,if someone is knocking on a door is not the same as some music somewhere else.
Hope I made myself clear.

Instead of the earplugs try to get a different accommodation or tell your mate to shut the fvck up after midnight since it's your right to sleep properly,you probably are not as cool as him when it comes of girls but at least you're not scum that dont give a fvck about disturbing other people while having fun.
I would not surprised if he make that noise in purpose as some kind of exhibitionists althouth those are usually girls.

You can get some good ones at drugstores like Walgreens or CVS. They're very cheap, like $5 for a big box. I think they're made of some kind of foam, but they're pretty good at blocking noise. I used to wear them in loud bars.
