"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.

I mentioned before I got a serious back injury last year, and I'm slowly getting back into shape.

So far all I'm doing is Bench Presses (no problem), Lat pulldowns (no problem), and curls (problem).

The problem with curls is that it puts the wrong kind of stress on my damaged spine so I have to find a way to do them without the spine stress.

What are the alternatives these days that would take the pressure off my spine?

Also, all my life my biceps have been the most difficult muscles to respond to training. My shoulders, back and legs respond great to training, but my biceps have always been weak and very slow to respond. Any tips would be appreciated.
 

"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.
