"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.

I quit smoking about a month ago. The problem is now I'm getting acne all over my face. When I smoked I seldom had problems with acne. I use a cleanser (cetephil) and a moisturizer everyday, but it doesn't seem to be working like it used to.

Anyone been though this? Any tips?
 

"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.

Hmm it might be your body doing some purging/cleansing or something
i'm assuming ciggs, yea?

you should add a BP product to your regimen if it looks like it's not going to stop fully, www.acne.org products worked _wonders_ for me so maybe you can check it out. read the articles on the site too, they offer good tips

It's your body clearing out all of the carcinogens and toxins from your body. The acne should subside in a couple of weeks once your body gets used to not having nicotine.

Your skin is still in the healing process. This is not that uncommon. And congrats on being nicotine free.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Yes its is contaminents trying to get our of your body, but there is a better way to help control it.

Drink a gallon of water throughout a 12 hour period, the blood that travels under the dermal layer will carry some contaminates away instead of popping out of your skin.

second. its very common for people to eat more once they stop smoking. So I'm going to assume your doing the same. Take a break from all variety of fried foods and drop the soda outright along with chocolate and overly sugered snacks.

This is not a miracal cure, but it will help reduce severity of outbreaks until your body is cleansed.

I also recommend scrubbing your face in small circular motions gently with soap and a coarse washrag 3 times a day.
