"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Naes420, can you help talk me through what it is like? Does the guy just chat to you about things or is there more involved?
televison and idiots say they just ask you a bunch of questions..which is not true


they get you doing fun things, they teach you theres better things to do then drugs (in my case) and help you find what makes you happy and the best part is that they are pretty decent people and i actualy had alot of fun talking with my counseler..at first time it might seem wierd but after the first few visits it starts to get more comfredeble and yes they do ocasionaly chat (well alot actualy) but its to analize what makes you happy and etc. and they are decent people as a i said

there are occasional assignments like rate your mood for each day and stuff like that it seems wierd but its all for the best at the end of the line

i would really recomend it because i had suicide thoughts going into my counceling as well and its helps a ton..in a way i owe my life to it
 

"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.
