I’m in the camp that they cover themselves at dinner, but after dinner drinks is where you treat the guest of honor and everyone makes sure they are never empty handed
co-signed, having my smoothie on the couch with 20-ish minutes of sportscenter audio coupled with instagram / twitter scrolling does wonders for my psyche. Much more so than taking it to go.
Meeting a random someone at a bar after 27 like taking half court shots. You might find net every once in a while, but you are gonna exhaust yourself chasing your missed shot rebounds.
Stick to the mid-range game (Mutual friends and dating apps).
Maybe I’m getting old, but this feels mighty aggressive for a hungover morning. “My heart will go on” to start the day would just remind me of last call and instantly flood the pools of anxiety.
That being said, not responding same day is kinda disrespectful of someone you are involved with. Doesn’t matter what you are doing throughout the day, finding a spare moment to respond to something before you go to sleep isn’t a lot to ask.
1) If someone is into you, it will take exetreme psycho levels of breaking text etiquette for them to stop liking you. If you like to text, then text. If you don’t, don’t. And don’t be afraid to have a conversation about it if you don’t necessarily have the same “texting timing”.
2) The wide range of phone availability at work is absolutely brutal when you first start texting someone. So don’t look into long periods of silence during work hours as disinterest.
3) Wholeheartedly disagree on snap chat. It’s the perfect medium to say “I thought of you today but I don’t want to waste your time with meaningless text small talk. And the best part is that it doesn’t necessarily warrant a response. You can just see it and smile, with no need to reciprocate if you are busy. Just send one out if you see something funny / cool during the week.
To the young guy at the bars. Sorry to break it to you, but you are a postgrad “freshman”. You are just gonna have to deal with it and take this time to learn. That being said, find the freshmen postgrad bars and/or college bars (if there are some in your city). You will do just fine there. But just like before, upperclassmen are going to dominate, it is just a fact of life.

Tried Goode Co. Cantina last weekend and it was a complete game changer. It might be the best Tex Mex in Houston
I can gauge my sunday hangover by how much my phone hand thumb muscle hurts on monday morning….
Definitely a lamb skin guy
Something something chlorine.
*looks down at cuffed dark wash jeans and suede desert boots* I don’t know how I feel about this…
Did this for both my laptop and phone, game changer.

This sounds like a cryptocurrency group chat

Always a hug, this isn’t a job interview

He just sounds like a manipulative dude, consider yourself lucky your friends helped filter him out.
Yeah don’t think that is the move. Gotta make sure you are standing on solid ground before you jump. Establish some rapport, and then shoot.
He will paint with all the colors of your ass
