"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.

I used to have a bad acne problem which left me with some scars on my face.

I've heard that there is something that you can put on your face that can gradually help you remove or lessen the scars..Could anyone please recommend something? (Please be specific) Thanks!
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Slightly related is the stretch marks on my back, which I know will fade with time, and more specifically a good tan, but I'd also like to know if there is anything that I can use to lessen their appearance.

I don't know where I'm coming from
There's a product out that I've heard of. I think it's called Mederma, or something similiar. I've heard good things, but I have no personal experience with it.

Yeah, Mederma is supposed to heal all sorts of scars. I should run out and try it...
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

How long ago were the acne lesions? I had a problem with acne and for about two years I had things on my face which looked almost like scars ( I think they are, but a different type than say if you had a large cut) but now they have faded out for the most part. I do have two kind of deep dents in my face from the acne though, they are like pock marks almost. There are surgical procedures for taking care of those types of scars and I know you are supposed to wait until your acne has either run its course or been treated successfully before you start fixing scars, because there is no sense in fixing one only to have more acne cause it to scar again.

Mederma DOES NOT WORK. It won't get rid of the scar, trust me. There is no way to "remove" a scar completely. There are ways to conceal it and make it less noticable. Depending on the extent of it, you can get a laser surgery or micro dermabrasion done. This runs anywhere from $500 - $5000 dollars and is your best bet for the results you desire. After this you should get a pigment restoration done (so when you tan, there isn't a big white spot on your face). Ascar has no pigment inside of it. They can go in and darken the scar area so it reflects the overall tone of your face. After which, if you spend your days surfing (the beach, not the net) and tan then it will be less noticable. Be my guest and try mederma for 12 weeks and see how it works. Maybe you aren't as vain as I am assuming but if it is that important to you, then pony up for the dermatologist.
