Anyone here well travelled in LA? What is the size of LA? Is LA big city that it will take you long hours to travel from area to area by car? How about if you take a bus or train?
"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.
Some questions on Travelling in Los Angeles, CA areas?

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Los Angeles is massive, and absolutely hideous in half its areas (just my opinion, but as a San Diego guy, it's my patriotic duty to hate Los Angeles). The city itself is something like 480 square miles, and the county is over 4000.

Los Angeles resident here....
This town is huge, and is known for its crappy traffic. As MetalFortress put it, the a good half of the city is crap, and I wouldn't drive anywhere near it. Actually, I'm in the San Fernando Valley....the good part of it that is.
Are you visiting?

Thanks for your replies.
I went to askjeeves.com. I found this map of LA. I asked for the driving direction from Nevin to Mount Washington for example. The total estimated driving time is 13 min. http://maps.ask.com/dd?sa1=Nevin&fa...geles,+CA&btnGetDD=Search+Directions&qsrc=108
13 min?!? That's an extremely short time. Those areas are located at the extremes of LA. I asked the driving duration to different areas. It will only take you short minutes! Was it by car or train or bus or maybe plane?
Another question. How many Fire Department does LA have? How many fire stations? I searched the LA fire department is located at 200 North Main St. http://www.lafd.org/ Is that the only LA Fire Department or therer are others? Is there a difference between fire department and fire station or they are terms with the same meaning?
I'm not visiting to LA for now, but I plan in the future.

Anyone?
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

Oh thanks for the links. I was too lazy to navigate the site, I just wanted to ask people who are actually residing in LA instead.
I want to become a firefighter/paramedic in the future and I'm thinking of going to LA Fire Department. I want to know how many fire stations LA has and where they are located. The links you gave have very helpful information. thanks again.

Hi. Would it take you more than an hour travelling in some street or highways by car? What about if you take a bus or train?
LA is a huge city but how come the driving duration from Nevin to Mount Washington (two areas at the extreme of LA) is only 13 min. according to this site? http://maps.ask.com/dd?sa1=Nevin&fa...eles,+CA&btnGetDD=Search+Directions&qsrc=108. I asked for the driving time from area to area and they were only short minutes. Am I reading it wrong?!?!

Well that's very admirable of you. Good luck.
LOL. During rush hours, it can take about an hour to get to many places....street and highways.
I've never taken a bus, but if you're outside of the central area of L.A., it could be difficult to get a bus. Trains are quite nice, actually. I took the Metrolink from Union Station to my stop in the Valley, and it was very quick, quiet, and (somehow) relaxing.
Dude, that's not even close to the extremes of L.A. I'd say about twenty minutes off peak driving hours. Rush hour is generally from 6:30-9:30 am and 3:30-7:30 pm. Those two places look like eight miles of each other. Los Angeles looks more like this:

"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.
