Basically, I don't want burst out crying (I can hardly grasp what her parents must feel). The worst part is that she's 7 years old and diagnosed with a brain tumor.
>>17001648
Cry it all out first.
That is what i do.
>>17001648
that's increasingly sad, but I suppose I would be strong for the kid who is probably terrified.
If you cry and ball like a baby so what. It's probably better than going and not showing any emotion until later. Which is how some people deal with these kinds of things. Neither way is wrong though. Everyone grieves differently, but the point is everyone grieves.
At what point should I see a doctor for a burn?
It's definitely at least mildly infected, but I don't want to wait at the hospital for 8 hours for someone to tell me to wash it in alcohol and slap a bandage on it.
I'll probably go to a walk in clinic tomorrow morning (they're closed here now) but until then I'm curious if someone here has knowledge or experience with burns and infections.
>>17001644
how did you burn yourself, also where, and finally, give us a photo dummy, how can we tell other wise?
If you have an infected burn, you should definitely get antibiotics.

Lots of devastating shit in my life involving cancer and helping people with problems that are small by comparison is soothing.
To try to help others.
There's a lot of cool anons and a few trips nowadays but several years back when I first came here there were a lot more cynical people and trolls.
too much of a fag to ask a girl out
now I'm all depressed and shit
Just lost my virginity to a friend with benefits. I'm not attracted to her at all and it didn't feel like sex. It felt very anti-climatic. Is this because I don't like her? Is sex different when it's someone you "love" or are attracted to? How is it not all the same? You're doing the same thing with your dick. Like damn, I went limp so many times. Help.
It's definitely different. Sitting with a girl you love cuddled up to you and watching a movie or something is 100x better than fucking some attractive girl you don't like.
Ib4 faggot.
Stop the presses! Sex isn't all virgins crack it up to be!!!
Seriously though sex is for people you care about, it's not really something to go through the motions about
>>17001607
First times always weird.
>Is this because I don't like her?
maybe
>Is sex different when it's someone you "love" or are attracted to?
Yes but not in a OMG THAT THE BEST, but more of a Comfy safe place of sex.
>How is it not all the same?
Energy levels, hornyness, body types, fetishes, preferences
It's been happening more and more lately that I hear whispering when I'm all alone. It will start off real low, and as I start to focus it will get louder and louder and then just stop. I can't ever really make out what is being said, but it sounds like they're talking about me.
But I'm 32, that's too old to develop schizophrenia, right?
>>17001590
nope. It can happen at any age.
But don't over think it.
>>17001597
I though it was like 18-20 normally? Are you really going to make me google this shit?
Mental health professional here. Hearing voices does not necessarily mean that you are schizophrenic. It may be quite a few other ootions. What is your gender?
I've worked with this girl for about 2 years. At first I honestly just wanted to fuck her (and actually fucked another girl to try and get her jealous) but then I think I started to fall for her. Problem is that I've asked her out multiple times and she's always said no. She ended up saying yes eventually but then I thought she was kidding so I laughed it off. Turns out she was serious but she started dating someone else about a month after that. How badly did I fuck up?

Fuck, I really want to break them up too. It just pisses me off that I see her at work and I know some other dude is with her.
I've been thinking of just going to Ukraine or some SEA country and marrying the first girl that will have me.
I make decent money for a young, single male and I don't care if I'm just being digged on, I'm so fucking tired of being hopelessly lonely.
Anyone ever met someone with a mail order bride before? What am I overlooking?
>>17001520
You are going to get trash if you go that route.
>SEA
>being even comparable to Ukraine
Shiggy diggy.
>>17001531
I mean assuming they'd be using me, wouldn't they at least pretend to care?
Also, I was leaning more to Ukraine, but I figured there might be too much competition.
>>17001520
try rose brides instead. why limit your choice to one part of the world? plus if you want a russian bride learn the language. stops you getting scammed by the ones who want a free ticket out of the country.
you must have funds to prove you can support her, and if a russian bride knows you gots coin she will EXPECT her man to pay for everything.
I need advice from anyone with a B.A in psychology.
Basically my lease is up in 40 days and I haven't held a job in my field in 3 years. I'm looking into a new life change and planning on moving to colorado; finding jobs and places to live now.
What kind of jobs can I look for with a B.A in psych, I don't really wanna pursue post graduate psych studies, but will likely go back to a tech school for a cheap B.A in IT so I can actually get a good job. Looking for something to pay bills in the meantime.
What kinds of jobs have you held with this...

>don't want to go to grad school
I've got some bad news for you son... This coming from someone who will have a psych BA in a year.
>>17001545
I know, I'm aware of all that. But a B.A can still land you a job as psychology is diverse as hell. I'm just curious what kinds of work people have landed with one for some direction.

If you have retail experience you could probably become an assistant manager. Do you? Have you worked at all before?
Hey , I'm looking for a watch similar to this, but 100 and lower. What company would you guys suggest?
I suggest your bank. Keep putting money in there and save enough to afford a nice Seiko. They're very reasonably priced. You're just poor.
>>17001470
>100 and lower
I don't even think there are any watches for 100 and lower. Regardless of currency really.
200 is the highest I can go.
Hey /adv/ I need some help. I've been browsing forums online for seven years, that's seven years of shitposting, watching anime/reading manga, porn, general social isolation and escapism.
I'm so busy dissociating and imagining ideals that I'm not living my own life. Now I'm an obese socially inept boring unmotivated lard ass with no capacity to think.
How do I even start to fix this? These things bring me no joy anymore. I might get a chance at going back to uni this fall so maybe I can turn my life around. Help.

Swim teams ?
Do school swim teams make you wear fucking speedos?
Will joining the Swim team help in joining the Military later?
Also what are some good spots to take up as recommendations for the Military (Marines or Air force)?

Hello /adv/. Posted this a week ago with not many suggestions. Figure I'd try again.
I'm about to graduate with a BS in Biochemistry. Not really sure what I want to do after college. I've got some work experience, managing fairly large budgets($20k/wk), supervising employees but not much actual science lab experience. I'm not sure how easy it's going to be to find work with my bachelors. Gonna graduate with a 3.7 major and 3.3 cumulative.
I'm pretty interested in intensive care medicine and have a hard on for adrenaline and thinking...

>biochem
Unless you want to max out at like $55K as an industry lab tech, you're not going much of anywhere with a BS alone.
Have you considered just continuing on to the MS and picking up some more career experience along the way?
>>17001436
Your GPA is fine, you could get some lab job if your school isn't shit.
With that said "do what you want" considering your ass is covered, though keep in mind that if you don't have a shitload of money sitting around, you will want more one day.
As far as being a ranger - if you can meet standards, yea, that's an option. So is USAF Pararescue or Green Beret medical sergeant.

Pretty tired of sitting in class all day, I need a little more excitement. I'm not tired of learning, I'm just tired of how I'm doing it, if that makes sense. I can deal with classroom stuff but I guess I need to balance it with some more hands on stuff.

If a man is kind and behaves entirely based on the principle of making other people's lives better, does that hurt his manhood, make him less masculine, etc?
>>17001315
The only that makes a someone less masculine is obsessing over what is or isn't masculine.
Manhood and masculinity are subjective. If he's going by the traditional definitions of these term the most manly thing he could do is whatever the fuck he wants and not letting the judgment of others dictate his actions.
>>17001315
it doesnt make him less masculine it breaks his spirit.
as most people will see you give but they will take what ever they need from you whether it be time money or both. i am not saying you shouldnt do good things for other people but your happiness is important too. and do what makes you happy
A jealous boyfriend sent a message to my employer accusing me of soliciting nudes and sex from his gf at a point when she was underage.
I was 23 when she was 17. I'm now 24. I have a law degree and just started at a law firm.
How do I handle this?
Your employer should know that accusations like this are baseless and will most likely move on.
Deny, deny, deny.
>>17001268
Talk to your boss and laugh about it. Then show him the nudes.
>>17001283
Why would they know that?
That's not the kind of accusation people tend to make anonymously and randomly.
>new girlfriend has a very hairy ass crack
uhh, how do i tell her to take care of that without making her feel very awkward and sad
actually her hygiene in general could use a boost, how do I discuss this with her
Had a similar situation with my ex, OP.
There's only one way to do it, just be upfront and respectful. Next time you're alone with her (at home) throw her the : "Can I ask you something, and this might sound weird" and tell her that you've noticed some personal hygiene issue. Try phrasing it gently like "would you maybe consider hair removal in certain area's", maybe call it "distracting" during sex rather than gross or disgusting.
It might also help if you find (or invent) something about your own personal hygiene...

>maybe call it "distracting" during sex
That's probably the best approach, but women are so self conscious that even that will probably leave her butthurt.
>>17001264
That's fucking hot tho.
Quit being such a little bitch.
