"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'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.

Doing things as a collective "because it is the right thing to do" at the cost of ones own happiness is very much frowned upon in objectivist circles.
hmm. you're right. i always thought i was free-minded and "tried" being unselfish. but if i "try," then you might as well call me selfish as well. such a paradox. the realization that i've been trying to get to ever since learning about ego and how to keep it on the low is that life isn't meant to be lived seriously. but i guess i've been taking this matter more seriously, therefore making my life more serious than it should be. thanks for reminding me.

i'm out too.

peace.

To believe that one is either subjective or objective, looking at them as polar opposites, is foolish.

Often, one thing will rise paradoxically from another which is its complete opposite. That's the point A-Unit makes about people going to extravagant means to achieve a simple life.

You know this is all interesting.

If you are constantly achieving in life, you feel lost in down time periods.

You also never fully celebrate your successes.

Ego is good and bad. It will help you strive to do things, but sometimes you try to protect it too much and you don't grow.

Your ego can't be destroyed, not by doing things poorly at least. You have to pay the price of doing things poorly to accomplish them one day.

You may also have to pay the price of loving someone in vain to understand love.

Uggg, I feel like **** right now.
