Please make the link and link:visited colors more distinct. I have to focus to see if I've read a certain thread or not; I'd like to be able to do it without thinking. Make the two colors contrast more.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"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 suppose it varies depending on your monitor, but on my LCD it's very obvious. I'll check it out on some others.

On both my monitor at work and my monitor at home, the two colors seem very close together. Perhaps bitrot and I both have some sort of color-blindness but I also have difficulty discerning which threads I have visited and which I haven't.

I'm on a CRT and having trouble telling the difference. I'll try it on my LCD when I go back to college and report.

It's a lot better now.
