"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.

Hey guys, tell me if this is too much to pay for a luxury condo in the city

So have an option to rent this luxury condo in the city. It's basically a 2 story apartment, open concept, nice kitchen (granite counter tops by the looks of it). And it's only about 10 blocks from the business part of the city, and 3 blocks from all the bars and clubs. The only problem? My share of rent and utilities will be about $900 (I'll be living with a roommate). I've only ever lived in the suburbs and on military bases so I don't know if this is a fair price. Also I'm still in school for a year, so it would be a pain (my old place cost me $750, but I was looking to just rent a room somewhere before this opportunity came up). Hopefully I'll be able to work more often since ppl are quitting at my part time job (and if not I'll just find a new bar to work at).

Tell me what you guys would do?
 

"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.

This completely depends on the city you're in. Comparison shop to determine if you're being ripped off.

Exactly. What a strange question.

Depends on your city. What kind of apartment it is. How much space you're getting.

Look on craigslist, see what apartments are going for in your area, and make your own evaluation.

I did some comparison. Most 2 bedroom apartments in that area range from 1200 to 2000 without utilities. This one would be around 1800 with utilities. It's one of the nicer places with it being a 2 floor place. There were only 2 buildings that had nicer places, but all of those were over 1900 in just rent (incidentally my parents own a condo in one of those buildings).

Seems like you thoroughly performed your research before coming here. Like someone already mentioned, without the name of the city, the location of the place, etc, there is nothing anybody here can suggest that will help you in your decision making.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
