"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.

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've heard that getting ALOT of carbs the day before working out can give you energy, is this true?

My question is how can I keep my stamina for my long rides?

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

For clarification, "GI" stands for "glycemic index" and is a measurement of how much insulin is created and secreted by the pancreas when said carbohydrate is digested.

Thanks for the reply; what ARE some low GI foods? Or where can I find a list?
