"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.

Why some pp do not eat pizza crusts?

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

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.

You see this more now days since so many people want to avoid carbs. But even 50 years ago there were people who didn't like to eat the crust. I've always thought it was incredibly wasteful.

By the way, I'm talking about the dough around the outside of the pizza here, not the underside. Just to be clear.

The lack of sauce.
 

"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.

I think the crust is the best part. In fact better than the actual pizza.

I don't eat pizza much but when I do I eat the crust first. Done that since I was a kid. It's a save the best for last mindset I guess. Best being the toppings.

Some people don't like "plain" bread. Like some people cut the crusts off sandwiches.

Personally, I like a pizza with light sauce, thick crust. When I was in HS I worked at a pizza place that made their own dough. After a fresh batch the owner would cook a pizza with ONLY crust, a little cheese, garlic, and oregano. That was pretty good.
