How do you lower your standards in dating?
I can't stand being alone but I can't stand any of the guys available either.
>>16584088
Don't lower your standards trust me it only lowers your happiness
"Available" is relative to the dating pool in which you're swimming. Don't lower your dating standards. Raise your personal standards and qualify for a better pool. Then the guys you're looking for will suddenly appear.
Is that you in the pic?
I've been told by women on numerous occasions that I'm not physically attractive. I've only had one match on tinder after being on it for a year, and only went on one date after using Okstupid.
I know I'm no oil painting, but I didn't think it would be this hard. I'm coming up to 27, and have about as much experience as a 10 year old.

This has to be meme.

You don't look ugly to me.
Your forehead/hairline is the problem, OP. Generally everything else looks alright, you've got nice eyes and a good jawline. I'd suggest growing your hair out if you can, see if you can pull off a skater style fringe.
Accept no substitute.
I really need a goddamn drink.
Giving out advice to anons on a daily basis is exhausting.
So I did something tonight that I've been thinking about doing for a while now. I fapped while driving. And to tell you the truth, it was exhilarating. One of the, if not the best, orgasm I've had since Jr. High. I was driving home from a city about 100 miles away from where I live. It started out when I saw a giant billboard for an adult sex store. I got to thinking, "wouldn't it be awesome to whip my dick out right here on the interstate?" So I waited until I was almost alone on the road. Nothing but 2 semis nearby. One about 100 ft ahead in the opposite...

Hey Truckerfag.
I'm the chick with the low sex drive. You told me to keep a food diary for a week. I did. But I don't want to spam the thread with my eating habits, what do?
>>16580957
Post your height/weight/age and what macros you consumed over the week.
>>16580963
Macros? Shit, did I do this wrong? I just wrote down what I ate measured in volume.
Has anyone here been able to finish college going full time while having a job the entire time? How hard is it?
>>16584688
Part time work is doable. Just work weekends
My boyfriend did. His grades suffered and he regrets doing it
Did it for a semester. Not worth it. You'll say "only X amount of hours a week"
Then if you're competent you slowly get put on the schedule more and more.

>>16584553
You have a child. That's too much responsibility to think of suicide, she doesn't have to pay child support or some shit that fucking bitch? I would be mad but don't do anything, chin up you might just be too pessimistic. I'd be happy to have the means to support a child, It means I'd be well off. And you need to be a good example for him/her. It should be easy if you love him/her enough to keep living for.
I'm sorry about the shit that's happened. Think about your child,...

I know but for years that thought has been wondering in my head everyday. i look at my daughter an smile , wanting to become a better person but for some reason. Along the way something always goes wrong. I have failed at mostly everything in my life. Is this all life is pain?
Need opinions from men. What is the best strategy or signs to find out if my husband is no longer into me or cheating? I know I'm not able to get an honest answer through communication. I haven't let my looks go at all and still have continued being sweet and loyal just as I always have been, so if he did stray or has I think it'd be due to boredom possibly or circumstances beyond my control.
>>16584510
Why do you suspect he has?
You have to go through his phone anon, only way to confirm it 100%.
That is how I found my girlfriend cheating on me while she told me everything else was great.
>>16584513
I've just felt an off vibe, noticed less compliments, angers easier, doesn't talk as much, slightly defensive when I ask questions. Things of that nature. Even if he's not cheating I wonder if he could be bored or less interested. Maybe distracted?
>HELP
>HERPES??????????????????
I am freaking the fuck out /b/
Had protected sex with a prostitute 5 weeks ago, I have had severe anxiety since and have been had 1 blood test and urine test after 1 week (came back clear) and another urine test at 3 weeks (also clear)
But I found these small white spots on my meatus.. I have a vague memory of seeing them years ago but I am fucking freaking out that they are HERPES... I have noticed them for the last 2 days (do not seem to have changed)

Pretty much everybody gets herpes, so maybe. You might have had it before this. It's not going to hurt you though.
Looks more like HIV you should be more careful.
>>16584428
if you want an honest answer: that's nothing.
herpes are quite painful and blister. warts are actual warts, quite a bit bigger and not white. what you have there are papules and are natural formations on the penis head. /thread

How's the sex?
Sounds controlling and insecure. Only stay with her if you are physiologically incapable of getting a new gf.
>>16584436
She's my first, and I've held on to the hope that she'll change.
>>16584430
Both virgins, but great head.
how true is this?

Well if she's got a good relationship with her family, you're going to have to accept that her family is who they are. I don't think you're capable of looking past their negative traits though.
Pretty much. Unless you put some serious distance between them. Or if the girl hates her family. Alcoholics suck. I'm fine with drinking but the unpredictability leaves a lot of chaos on the table.
>>16584427
It's like super chaotic. especially recently with her mom ending up in the ER. just, so much added stress. and you're right, it is really hard to look past. so what do I do about it? ditch her and loo for something new? we have been together for a year now.
>>16584426
she always says how important family is to her, but she doesn't necessarily act on it all the time. She talks to her dad at least once a day, but her dad isn't that...

How can you trust that a girl like does not have an std? Is it okay to ask them weather or not they have an std that they know of? how do you go about making sure you don't get sick from having sex with someone?
Most STDs are curable with antibiotics. I don't worry about it.
as much of a bonerkill as it may seem, before I fuck any guy without a condom I make him get screened for them. if he refuses, that's enough of a red flag for me to move on
>>16584271
You ask to get tested together (even if you're a virgin or you've already been tested after your last sexual experience).
If she gets offended, that's a huge red flag and she's not worth it.

All I've ever attracted is girls who are looking for relationships and only like vanilla sex. I'm really tired of the vanilla sex. For those of you who have had FWB before (who weren't exes) how did it happen for you? I've tried tinder as well and every girl that matches with me isn't the FWB type. I matched with one girl who looked like she wouldn't be so vanilla in the bedroom and she unmatched me because I didn't message...

>On a work safe board.
Are you retarded nigger?
FWBs are the only thing I had during college. It happened by meeting girls in class or extracurriculars, being the charming motherfucker that I am and then flirting with them. Like clockwork that led to the question "So how come you don't have a girlfriend?" which is when I'd bring up having no interest in a committed relationship. Then I'd resume flirting. College girls can do that much math in their heads quite easily.
The big thing is to not talk about it. It has to feel spontaneous and organic. Otherwise she's just going to get paranoid.

>the word "nigger" on a work safe board
seems like we are in the same boat my friend

only option is to kill yourself
Anons, I'm stuck abroad for next two months. I won't see my family and friends till late February. I feel lonely and depressed and I miss home. I have no motivation whatsoever. How can I survive this time?
>>16583902
You apparently have an internet access. Search in your head something you really wanted to learn, and learn the shit out of it. Work will make you stop thinking of something else.
Read, listen to music, watch movies, do sports, etc.
I haven't seen my family and my good friends since half a year or so, video calls help a lot.
>>16583902
skype them?? what are you doing abroad? school or work
Is it worth staying in college for computer science? I've been in a year and haven't touched a computer in class other than to use it for word or powerpoint. I won't have a real CS class for another year. Truthfully I don't even know what I'll be able to do with the degree when I graduate.
I have a part time job that has nothing to do with my major and it feels like I'm just wasting my time there and in school. It's like my life is going nowhere.
Am I better off dropping out and getting some kind of certification? Which ones are...

im not in much of a position to give you advice since i failed out of college but since no one is replying..
your in school for a bachelor's in computer science correct? if yes a degree definitely helps in getting jobs in programming or it.
you can work on programming side projects which can show future employers your skills and expertise
>>16583971
Is it better than getting some form of CS like certifications though?
I don't know the first thing about programming. My classes are getting in the way of me learning things I'm actually interested in, ironically.
>>16583996
ask your school's career councilor
you could take a semester off and figure out your next step
you've only been in for a year so its not to late to switch to another program
what id give to be in your position..
