"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.

Hello, all.

I don't know if it's the right forum for this, but here goes...

I'm posting this becaus I need a MAN's opinion.

It's about how to stand up to my dad, who's always, ALWAYS criticising what my sisters and I do. My sisters seem to be ok with it. I'm 30. They're 27. He's not like this with just us. He does it with EVERYBODY.

It seems he can never be satisfied.

And when I try to confront him, my sisters side with my dad out of pity and gang up on me for being a ****.

It's like everything we do needs his approval and I think it's one of the main reasons I block and can't advance faster in life.



How do I deal with this situation?????
 

"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.

Father knows best. Isn't 30 a little old for this "my dad is being mean" reality? Just putting it out there.
