"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.

How do you quote multiple posts in a thread?

Not sure how to do that. Can someone tell me how?

Thanks.
 

"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.

Cut and Paste the multiple posts you want to use
Thanks, but how do they end up in their individual boxes with the word "Quote" above the boxes? Do I have to yype in the html ([Quote= etc.) or is there an automatic way? Sometimes I see posts with like 10 quotes and I can't imagine that the guy actually typed in all that code.

Thanks again!

Sorry. I'm sure someone else can explain it better. I'm not much of an expert on these things.

All I can say is, if I find 3 posts I want to use, I usually just click the "quote" button, so all the code pops up, then I copy those 3 posts and paste them into whichever typing program I have open....like Microsoft Word.

Then, while in Word, I type my response to each quote, and copy & paste it back into the browser.

Smarter people might have a simpler way to do this, but this is how I've been doing it on forums for years.
