    Is @iMago still open today... I have questions! Can guys ask too or should we keep it in the cave?

    Best approach in the beginning...
    Ignore her completely, or give her that attention?

    I've heard varying opinions on various outlets 😬...
    But let's let you settle the debate here and now...

    just talk to her as much as you want, while saying as little as possible.

    and leave her on read, often.

    yeah that's actually super important ^

    people- you gotta keep those read receipts turned on. that way if they text you something inane or boring and you choose not to respond, then they will see it and know.

    okay but sometimes they are just tired and like they pills and whiskey are kicking in right?

    well yeah sometimes. it usually works out though because they still wake up at like 333 am and then they read her texts but don't respond until around 8:30 or so anyhow.

    When i’m on the receiving end of a 3:33 read receipt, it’s especially impactful if I see that he’s liked a couple of pics of some rando on social media like 20-30 minutes after he’s read my text

    Can you actually see that? 😬

    On fb, yes

    IG.. no

    Unless you go through the people he follows and see which ones are the hottest and go look to see if their profiles are open and then scroll through to see if he’s liked their more suggestive/revealing pics and compare when they were posted vs when he read your text to see if you can narrow it down, this is purely conjecture i would never probably do that

    You can just look at IG “activity” actually.

    But I didn’t tell you that.

    They removed that feature

    8 months and 11 days ago roughly

    IG/Facebook is just some data stealing mid life crisis apps that only tweaky sad people use anymore anyways

    Can confirm

    Also desperate

    i agree with them actually. in a perfect world at least. this world ain't perfect though.

    You know in a perfect world I'd agree too but a wise Mago once said...

    These... ain't loyal

    Ellipses?! They will always be loyal to the part of the sentence to which they are attached: either subject or predicate.

    @iMago

    This guy I had lunch with (didn't see again) and haven't spoken to in almost a month sent me some random pictures of food. It feels like a feeler text to see if I'll respond like I know who it is. I left him on read. Did I handle correctly?

    He enters your dungeon lair boudoir bedroom for the first time since the start of quarantine but fails to notice (or, ahem, leverage) the huge 6'x7 'mirror you've since added to the space.

    Ditch him or keep him?
