"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.

This isn't me, but it's for someone I know who wants to lose and keep their weight in check. Is there anyone here with Type 1 Diabetes that has successfully lost weight?

For those who don't know, Type 1 Diabetes is a royal bytch to deal with. You need a certain amount of carbs, and you need to balance it with insulin shots to prevent your blood sugar from going too high or too low, or you'll fvcking die. How in the hell does one lose weight with Type 1 diabetes when they have to take in carbs regularly?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

Took my time to reply this.

But deleted. And tried to post another and deleted again.

This is serious stuff @Desdinova and requires a proper serious answer from a dedicated diabetes doctor.

It's life threatening.

I wish your friend well.
