"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.

...post when you've been drinking and/or on drugs?

I know there's some AA's on here that don't drink or do any other $hit, good for you btw :up:

But the rest of you....

As a 37 year old professional :crackup: I have a drink or two pretty much every night...sometimes it leads to three or four.....or whatever.

Most writers take pride in the fact that they drink, it lets the words flow more smoothly. That being said, what's your guys' average BAC when you post on here?
 

"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.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Haven't touched booze in 7 years. Would never go back... much rather play video games or spend the afternoon over a game of magic cards with friends... nothing good comes of being drunk except lost money, time and braincells.

At 34 years old magic cards are a better investment that going out drinking? Not trying to be a total troll here, just wondering how that is a more enjoyable investment.

Someone "new" or young comes on and asks for advice and 12 guys chime in "dump that biatch" and they are all pissed - drunk......he doesn't know that and does it, when there could have been a simple solution or no solution required.
I agree with you on this one.



I'm not a writer, I was just making an example.

I should probably start drinking more.

If I'm lucky I manage to get totally wasted once a month.

I would never recommend getting "wasted" although it happens. No need to try to get drunk. Drinking's fine IMO, as long as you have it under control and don't use it as a constant crutch. If you can go out and have fun without drinking, then more power to you.
