Anybody ever been screwed over while driving in the rain, and crashed or been crashed into? Dang, well when the DMV advises to keep twice as much distance behind another car in wet weather, just do it. I know I will be from now on.
"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.

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
I don't know if anyone else has this problem but I have perfect eyesight, and when it rains, ESPECIALLY at night, I have severe life issues with staying in my damn lane.
Really pisses me off. Never gotten into an accident b/c of it though.

I don't have perfect eye sight yet (I'm hoping to get lasik in a few years) but wear contacts, and I have the exact same problem as you. Although freezing rain is 10X worse. I remember about a month ago I was driving home on a 4 hour drive after taking a tour of vtech, and I just happened to be in the middle of a winter storm just about the whole way. Freezing rain not only makes driving on the roads a *****, but also it freezes up your windshield wipers, so I had to pull over every 15 min to get the ice off of the windshield wipers. A real pain, you'd think after 70 years of basically the same design they'd find something better then windshield wipers.

I've been rear ended three times by people who don't know how to drive in the Goddamn rain. It's ridiculous how much the average American motorist knows about how cars handle in adverse weather.
Personally though, I love driving in the rain. I slide my car around corners for fun

"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.

well if im not mistaken, i believe that the defroster feature in your AC system can at actually "defrost" windows. You know hot air blows out, the windshield heats up, therefore melting the ice. But i might be mistaking like i said.

That dosen't help much in heavy freezing rain. Believe me I was trying that the whole way home, all it did really was slow down the freezing of the windshield wipers very slighlty.
True it does.

Get good tires...some ultra high performance all seasons...make a huge difference with Z speed rated tires.

No. Z-rated tires are built for cornering, dry weather traction, and responsive steering. Even all-weather Z-rated tires, while they aren't BAD, are still disadvantageous in wet weather due to their profile and tread pattern. A good set of all weathers with a non-performance profile and tread pattern are the best you can do for rain.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

turboovercubic inches, i have to politely disagree...
UHP tires such as a pirelli nero zero m+s, falken ziex 512, or a michelin pilot sport A/S...will do everthing better than a set of generic/touring all season with a non performance profile. Check out tirerack.com for the logical arguement and testing.
Those 3 tires are better designed to sipe away the water to prevent hydroplanning and use various types of rubber compounds to balance both rain performance in 35 degrees as well as 85 F.
In a perfect world you need 4 sets of tires...summer dry, summer wet, fall winter wet (high silca compound tread), and set of dedicated winters.
Goodyear Eagle GSD3 are fantastic rain tires in greater than 45 degrees and heavy rain. I have driven those at triple digit speeds...no hydroplaning. Now my RE070s own the dry, but not the wet.
