"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.

Hi everyone,

I really don't want to go home! :down: I have to go back home from college.

First, this is the first summer where every single one of my friends is either in Iraq, Afghanistan, or South Korea.

Secondly, I don't want to have to worry about gas prices like now since I have a decent public transit system where I live (Lancaster, PA).

Thirdly, I hate leaving a place that is intellectually stimulating and going back to place that doesn't speak about philosophy or business.

Fourthly, I'm tired of being bored. I love the fast paced world that I live in currently and I know that once I go home it will be VERY slow.

Fifthly, I'm really not looking forward to losing internet connections so I can keep a tab on stocks/gold/oil prospects. Also losing the connection to ss.net as well :down:

Sixthly, I'm not looking forward to my parents, planning something without telling me, and then not showing up home until way past the deadline and then getting yelled at for not being there when I should have known better.

Sorry for the rant, but I'm not looking forward to next week ending.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Better option.

Get a tent and live at a camping site. You'll have heaps of fun. Borrow out heaps of books and meet heaps of new people. Learn to fish or surf.

Tell your parents to stick it up their a$$.

Do you live with the Amish? HAHA, kinda funny cuz I found an old thread of yours where you posted a myspace and one person replied saying that they always thought u were a black dude.

For me, I'm just trying to find a job to wait out the summer until my transfer, where I should be having just as much fun as u described. I also hope that the grad schools in PA I'm applying to in 2-3 years are as good/fun as urs, but first I'm gonna need 2 find a cheap area to rent a place.

That was an awesome thread and made me laugh my @$$ off because I had to deal with that same type of sh!t in real life.

Where you transferring to and what grad schools in PA are you applying to?

My rent is about $400 per month plus utilities and that is the cheapest in Lancaster.

"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.

Hop on one of the horse and buggies with one of the Amish. I've been to Lancaster before. I find it an interesting place.
