    don't be afraid to "hey stranger" them after you ghosted 18 months prior. they're probably really looking forward to hearing from you after all this time

    Make sure you include “you look rly good” on any of their recent Instagram posts too.

    men are like jobs, don't leave one until you have another one lined up

    Once upon a time, I married someone like that.

    Then ask for their number again because you “accidentally lost all your contacts”.

    "oh hey i got a new phone but i lost all my contacts 😔 "

    works every time and they're guaranteed to believe it.

    always keep your read receipts on.

    and don't be afraid to turn your phone off after she sends that paragraph of text.
    she knows that it probably tired you out to read all of it and she'll understand.

    It’s also okay to just respond with a thumbs up emoji.

    SUMMER MUSIC
    Dear Sir Mix-A-Lot,
    I am an elderly woman who lives alone. There are no senior centers in my area, and I live on a fixed income. I would love to get out and meet more people, but there seem to be very few options for someone my age. Is there some social outlet I don't know about?

    —Lonely In Laramie

    Dear Lonely,
    Kick it, lick it, watch where I stick it / Face down while I punch your ticket / Ride my king cobra 'round the world / Wanna do ya girl / Want ya pettin' my big black cat / Blackberry jam don't shake like that / If your booty's extra-large, I'll bring the funk / Wanna see some extra luggage in the trunk.

    "cool story bro" is VERY effective at showing them how deeply you care as well.

    it's okay to have a work husband/wife. you don't really need to tell your significant other about it though. just gradually start mentioning that person more and more in regular conversation to slowly broach the subject.

    when you're at the car wash. or the drive through. or stuck in traffic- make sure and roll down your windows and turn your stereo up as loud as possible.

    other people will appreciate you providing them with some entertaining music. they might like it even more if you install a loud subwoofer and amp to get those good bass notes across properly.

    after you're both finished and she finally asks "so where do we stand?" go ahead and tell her "on the earth haha" and then change the subject.

    she'll appreciate you playing hard to get with your emotions

    it's okay to talk him if you only need some "closure"

    If you see potential during this "talk" beg for him to come back...works like a charm (tears, pound your fist on his chest, hug him and dont let go)
