"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Alright it seems that every time I wake up in the morning I am really f*cking moody I hate it.

But also when I wake up I kinda panic cause I have bad dreams or thoughts. Like today whan I woke up I started breathing hard for a minute cause my dream freaked me out man. It was me beating up a old friend of mine up. BTW I never did and never will.

Or I wake up thinking about all the bulls*it I did bad in the past. Thinking it will comeback to haunt me. BTW it shouldnt. and alsoI have learned from my mistakes.

Im so f*cking sick of this. I take anxiety/ depression pills and I am still freaked out man.

What should I do? cause I really hate sleeping now.:mad:
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Besides your conscious, It is the pills that are causing it.

i am not an expert, but if you had a concusion ( i had one back in 9th grade, and didnt take any pills.). Are the pills recommended by your doctor? i would double check with him to see whats up. At times i wake up with a moody attitude its ussually because i haave had lack of sleep and my body is still tired from the day before. My mom said i need to sleep more, and eat more, and drink more water. Im not saying that those are your problems, but i would try sleeping more......

hopefully i helped alil.

dont read this in the morning :)

why dont you give yourself, each day, a period of pure relaxation, a period where you sit in a relaxing environment, breath, and have a thinking session.

If you have bad thoughts of your past pop up, then think them over in a very logical way, think of how it "could've been worst" and that thankfully you're each day getting a step closer to your ideal position in life

Pretty much to sum it up, you have to be positive, and before you can be positive Think positive. Do something that you enjoy, go buy yourself anything that makes you happy, hit the gym if you haven't already, expand your social life, and etc.

pretty straight forward advice, but if done, im sure will have a positive affect on you.

"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.

Wake and bake. Problem Solved. :rockon:

Or take a walk, workout, something to get the endorphins going when you wake up. Plus it'll help you snap out of the grogginess faster if you're not a morning person.

Waking up for me is tough. I want to get up but my bed is too comfy and I'm not in full control of myself when I wake up. Its like I'm blacked out and don't know whats going on. The first step is the hardest. I ordered this two days ago:
