"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I've hit a bit of a slump in my life and I feel like I'm just doing the daily grind. My girlfriend doesn't really mean a whole lot to me and I'm tired of just being confined to my small little corner of the world in the midwest. I'm a writer and have been filled with wanderlust for the past few years now and have been neglecting it, which may be fueling my depression, but I feel like I need to be out in foreign places and experience a different side of the world.

My question is - I'm 24 and if I apply I won't be getting out until I'm at least 26, is it worth it to spend the time in the Peace Corps even though I'll be missing out on some of the best years of my life (my 20's?). I want to make a difference and help improve the lives of people so this seems right up my alley, but the whole 27 months thing does seem rather intimidating. Are there better programs than the Peace Corps? Would any of you suggest doing this? Have any of you done it and have had a positive/negative experience?

I figure I'm only young once and I want to get out and see the world.
 

"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 think the Peace Corps would be an awesome experience, personally. Heck, even at 41, I would still consider it.

OP, you are only 24, you have the best years of your life ahead of you. 27 months of life changing experiences, doing something good for others in need, what's not to like?

Another organization you could look at is the Maryknoll missionary, if you are Catholic particularly and want to volunteer and score a few points with the big man upstairs.

What I like about the Peace Corps, is they take care of everything. They give you enough money to live on while on your assignment. At the end of your 2 year hitch, they give you something like $10K, so you can go out and get started building your life from there.

Peace Corp also looks great on a resume. No matter what job you apply for, it looks great.
