I am a high school teacher. This girl likes to talk to me when I am on duty once every two weeks or so. Not that I like her or anything, but this kid seems to have feelings for me. Does she? I've began working recently and I am not experienced with these sorts of stuff.
Who the hell cares if she had feelings for you. No. Youre a teacher. Jesus.
Dude... If youre even thinking about this sort of stuff you have no business being a high school teacher.
Kids develope bonds with teachers over time, just don't recriporicate any advances and you'll be fine, in other words no flirting with the jailbait

what do people use now?
I need help with some kind of bug infestation.
So far it's only one room (bedroom) and I'm killing about 10 of these little fuckers each day.
They are very small, about 2 mm in size and can crawl on walls. They also seem to have wings, but I never saw them fly around - only crawl on my walls and furniture.
what exactly are these bastards and how can I get rid of them?
>>16952451
Looks like Carpet Beatle.
Clean your fucking room.
>>16952470
thanks
I've read about them - do you think putting all my textiles (clothes/bed sheets) in plastic bags and freezing them overnight as well as washing them afterwards should kill them off?
in the meantime I'd clean my room as good as possible and spray some pesticide around
>>16952513
Have you found any on your clothing etc?
If not just hot wash them and don't put them back in your room until you are sure your pest is gone.
Keep clean until you no longer find the Beatle, probably need to move the furniture out to get in the corners and along the wall.
Is it possible to be really close to an online friend?
No.
>>16952423
Yes.
I've met 3 good friends online, one 10 years ago, one 4 years ago and one 9 or 10 months ago. I 've met them all in real life, we talk almost daily, they're great people.
It's not the same as an "every day" relationship like I have with my best friend, but they're good guys and I'm happy I have them in my life.
I know there's nothing I can do about it but how do I accept that I have an average/below average penis (5", not much girth) and not feel so insecure when I see larger penises?
>>16952414
It's literally doesn't matter unless you are sub 4' and a fucking pencil dick.
Most guys are shit at sex anyway, all you have to do is try and you are ahead of like 70% the guys out there
>>16952414
Stop looking at large penises perhaps
Seriously.. 5.5 here and never had a problem with any woman in my life that mattered.
Imagine hearing a woman complain about being a B cup. Would you think she is too small?
If you can urinate without any problems, then thats what i suggest you use it for.
Anyone might have an idea where to find alot of iq tests?

Thank you for your valued input you fucking spastic
So here's the deal. After school I want to go and study film (directing, producing, editing, etc). When it comes to mathematics I get bad grades and I hate it, and I'm not sure if I'm actually going to need it for my career. Is it worth the risk to not study maths as an essential subject? I feel like I'm limiting myself if I don't study it, but if I fail the course then it'll seriosuly effect my chances of getting into a university. What do I do anons?
>>16952371
You will use math every day of your life (if you know how to use it). You'd be severely limiting your options if you went without.
>inb4 you dont use math hurr derr
>>16952371
90% of any film job is raising money, applying for grants, fixing budgets, and the like. Does any of that sound vaguely related to math?
Oh, and learn the difference between AFFECT and EFFECT. It might come up.
Basic algebra is baseline for everything you do in life. Everything else is optional.
my gf is off for the weekend with her church group to celebrate Easter in the wilderness
I asked her what they actually do and all she tells me is getting close with god.
any religious anon can tell me what goes on in this church reunions at Easter time?
>>16952341
She's going camping so she can bang hot church guys. She's going to be pumped so full of cock she'll make Lexi Belle look like a saint
Idk about her particular group, but it's usually about meditation, music, food, and games. Nothing nefarious. All rather boring.
>>16952354
Either this or she's gonna be told how you are satan for not being there, by guys who are either trying to or succeeding to do what >>16952354 says.
how well will japanese pen pal exchange work for me acquiring a gf?
Your chances of getting a japanese gf are the same as your chances of getting a local gf.
>>16952365
So zero?
>>16952365
why
Need somewhere to talk, but I'm not the type to post about my problems on social media.
Well I'm a very unattractive, scrawny guy who Never got the girls in school, or even friends actually.
Spent my entire life alone, not even my family wanted me, and they'd treat me like shit.
A very lonely life in other words.
I dropped out of high school because of bullying which lead to horrendous social anxiety, so now I'm an an ugly neet fuck up.
There's something right with me in the head, so I would always try to imagine some kind of delusional...

Don't sit and wait, go and work on yourself. It's a drag, it's annoying and tiresome. But it gets you somewhere and you will eventually feel better.
I'd ask for a picture of you to as you might just be over reacting, but then again this is 4chan and posting pics ain't the best idea. Feel free tho
I'm about to give you some tough love bro. Yeah it sounds like you've had it rough I get it. But I live in a small rural community myself and I'm a bit of a fuck up but I always work on myself and I do own a vehicle. Start somewhere dude and make some type of goal you can accomplish short term. I know guys that are almost hills have eyes ugly/fat and they do alright and have significant others and have a normal life. Get you a job somewhere and say fuck your family, start socializing and just date a girl, she doesn't have to be a damn super model just make...

Hey guys, sorry to take your time but I really need advice.
I just came back from talking to a psychiatrist - for the first time ever.
I've had depression for at least 15 years now. I never had the guts to do anything about it until just now because now the mix of depression and stress from a new job have started to make me unravel.
But my question isn't about that.
As I said, today I had my first appointment with a psychiatrist and I feel I can't trust or respect that man.
Right off the bat he started talking about my horoscope...

I haven't had a any experience in this so maybe my view is unjustified, but I 100% believe you need to get a new therapist. They should NOT be doing that shit and you obviously need help from a professional
find a new therapist
ive found that having a therapist the same gender as you is the best thing you can do
>>16952289
Thank you! Since he said stuff like I am spoiled and selfish (which I don't think is right), I worried this is just a knee-jerk reaction to getting criticized, but really...
I need a professional with a scientific mind. Not someone who thinks all I need to do is some yoga to clear out my chakras. :(
At least that's what I believe.
>>16952296
Thank you! Does it really matter? I'll try and ask my doctor to send me to a female...

>tried killing myself with chemicals
>failed and brought to hospital

>>16952241
>2006
>be depressed due to family and general puberty stuff
>insecticide
>be diagnosed with depression, break off therapy
>self improval to put it bluntly
Sometimes I fall into old patterns like paranoia or the good old ZOMGNOONELOVESME (to be fair I'm a difficult person), but in general my life is awesome, so why would I give two shits.
>>16952241
try reading this book
it might not work for you, but, give it a shot
>did anyone of you tried to kill themself?
yes. unsure of how many times because unsure of what counts. I've thought about it almost every day for the last 14 years, started to attempt countless times, attempted so that I had to go to the ER probably 5-10, been hospitalized for suicide attempts 3 out of the 6 times I've been hospitalized, nearly died from attempting 2 times.
>how did you try it? and why?
It's pretty split between strangulation and OD. The worst one was when I was...

So, if I have been given access to someone's bank account and had been asked to control their finances, if I transfer their money into my account is that illegal (in Australia) . This person is no longer in my life.
Pic unrelated
don't do it, think how it would feel if it happened to you.
This person is a cunt though
>Person isn't in your life
>Have been asked to control their finances?
This doesn't make any sense. I think even if you are given power of attorney over someone's finances you can't legally just take their money and put it into your own account .
Idk what it is with women. I just get really uncomfortable when talking to them. Its like nerves but there are no thoughts going through my head. I can know they like me and still get nervous. It feels like I can't approach them no matter how hard I try to fight it. I'm not gay BTW.
That's just what someone in the closet would say haha. No srs tho, I had the balls to walk up to this fucking giant over 6ft6 guy in my school and talk to him, now we're going on our 3rd date. It gets easier real quick, talk to a girl, maybe go on a date and within a few hours of talking your nerves will just melt away, just don't start jizzing yourself and you'll be fine. Everybody makes a big fucking deal outta talking to chicks but desu we're just people with tits same as u m8
>>16952639
Women have no idea how to be guys to be honest...
> Everybody makes a big fucking deal outta talking to chicks but desu we're just people
People who like to reject as cruelly as possible. Seriously, half of you don't even treat men like people. Fuck, if you were a guy, you wouldn't be givin' that same advice.
OP, learn to fake it.
Start with casualy smiling, saying "hi" in passing.
If you're stuck in their proximity for a prolonged time, maybe make small talk. About weather or work or some shit. Smile... think of something funny you saw on TV to make smiling easier.
Don't ask anything too personal, don't get too close. The only exception to this is if she asks something personal first, then you can follow up with an "and you?".
Never ask if she's seeing anyone.
Aim for acquaintances rather than friends.
This won't get you laid, but it'll stop you being the creepy guy. It's all about becoming comfortable with blending in around women. Being invisible.
Hi, I will apply to college this year (2017 in US), I was wondering what colleges should I apply to.
Status: International student
Major: Aerospace Engineering or Physics
Finance: Bad (I need scholarships or work-study)
From what I've known, Caltech, Georgia IT, MIT are really good.
But I don't know what other colleges would be good for Major in AE.
Do your own homework.
>>16952209
Please don't go to college if you think the us runs on a different year
Get a job
Make a killing ringing a church bell with your skull
>>16952269
I'm sorry, due to the lack of my knowledge, what I meant is around Oct 16 - Mar 17, from college page it's called 'this year (2017)' this exact phrase. I copied it and thought it'd be fine to put (in us) in the same brackets. Apologies for the miscommunication.
