It's kind of impossible to stop dogs from barking if they want to bark, really.

Or at least I've never been able to stop mine.

Don't leave them outside at 8 am?

>>16945188
Oh, people do that?

Then yeah they're rude.

Is that like social anxiety?

>>16945158
No. I have little trouble talking to strangers, but living with my roommates makes me more and more stressed as time goes on.

What do you avoid in particular?

Come on adv don't fail me now

It ends whatever you decide for it to end, it's your choice.

Maybe you will get together with second woman and live happily ever after.

Maybe your passion for second woman will fade and you will decide to keep first girl.

Maybe you'll cheat and lose both.

Also, keep in mind that if you get together with woman No.2, there is also the possibility that you may become bored with her as well after 5 years. You know, once you really get to know her and the initial infatuation and mystery fades.

>>16945210

Yea the grass is always greener. I'm afraid she won't be who I thought she was and I regret my decision.

One thing is that I was never really passionate for my gf. I think I was lonely. I don't carry her in my heart, don't surprise her with nice things, wait till last day to get her gifts for holidays etc.. I do love you and care about her. The intense heartache she'd feel if I ended it is something I couldn't bear inflicting on her

>Are you in crisis? Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at +1 (800) 273-8255.
/adv/ isn't your therapist. We also are not a suicide hotline.

>>16945052
Those things never work trust me they never understand the situations people are in or even care really what's the point in calling those stupid places.

>>16945061
And you thought 4chan would care more? I don't see the logic. How is an anonymous imageboard known for being cruel to others going to care more than a suicide prevention hotline?

Come to terms with your deep seated insecurity. Establish trust, goodwill and eventually transparency in your relationship.

Set yourself on fire

>>16945019
how do i come to terms with them? I've been struggling with insecurities from past relationships for years. How do I stop feeling like I'm not good enough and then reflecting that onto my partner?

I'm not a man but there's lots of advice here such as getting a different condom size. Do u normally cum during fapping?http://www.steadyhealth.com/topics/having-sex-for-the-first-time-couldnt-cum

>>16944933
>fucking emotions
This has nothing to do with emotions.
Stop fapping and phisically abusing your penis while doing so.

It is called the practice of carefully choosing some fashion style, manners of talking, behaviors, and so on with the goal of improving how you're perceived by others

Protective camouflage

Facebook is everyone's personal shrine to themselves. Simply posting pictures of your family doesn't necessarily mean that family is important to you, only that you want to show it off.

>Simply posting pictures of your family doesn't necessarily mean that family is important to you
Why the heck would you post something that is not important to you? Would a person who doesn't like Taylor Swift share pictures of her on Facebook?
>only that you want to show it off
I don't think so. The Anglo expats here seem obsessed with their kids. And their wives too, considering that they like to post pictures of their family with...

Whites are generally all about their immediate family, but wider family is ignored. 'Family' to non-whites can include several generations, and cousins, second cousins, and more distant relations

Impossible to say. We don't know what any of the four people are looking for, and that's crucial information.

Relationships are designed to fill needs. If they fill the needs of both people, they tend to last.

So you've gotta ask yourself - what are the needs of the four people in your question, and can their respective partners fill them?

>>16944907
Well almost everyone on /adv/ said that a relationship with someone with young kids will lead to misery even if it does work out and almost everyone on /adv/ said that an age gap that is too big is unlikely to work out.

depends on the case

>>16944839
Go after what you want.

That's really the only difference, when you get down to it.

>>16944839
By throwing out simplistic and immature terms like "Alpha male" and "Beta male".

>>16944853
This is a pretty good advise, if when you understand what "get down to it" means.
Example: If a girl isn't interested in you, then move instantly on. Because why should you bother for her? She denied you, you can't get her, search for a new girl.
This behavior needs self-confidence, courage any many other characteristics too.

>>16944458
Honestly, go see a therapist. I'm not sure that you're depressed, but with this level of indifference (if I am to derive that correctly based on your description) should be something you talk about with a professional. It could also just be you need a change of scenery. It doesn't seem like you're too interested in your surroundings.

>>16944526
No. He should go to a psychiatrist, not a therapist. It's clearly a psychiatric disorder we're talking about here (most likely major depression).

I'm bipolar and I had very similar symptoms as you. I didn't even realize that I suffered from depressive episodes because I thought having depression is the same thing as just feeling depressed.
What you describe sounds a lot like a case of clinical depression at the very least, so go to a psychiatrist and tell them everything.

There is an event I'd like to ask someone to in two weeks. Should I just ask now, or wait until it's closer?

I feel like if I don't make contact I definitely won't be contacted either. I don't know if that matters, though.

>>16944339

Errr... Why would you wait?

So they can have less time to prepare/more time to make other plans?

>>16944344
Sorry, I should have given more info.

I asked to hang out recently and got a very generic "I'm busy" answer with no follow up. Just like I'm busy, let's hang later.

So I'm worried asking so soon might be weird? But I guess if it is that just means they aren't into me, which is information is like to know anyway.

I'd say yeah. I'm currently going to uni to become a teacher, and there is a good amount of ladies in my classes. Some aren't really nerdy at least not the kind of nerdy I am, but generally they are nice. Sure some are bitches, but you run into those everywhere.

B-but anon working with kids makes me feel like I'm not a parasitic piece of shit

It's you who needs to call them.

Though going in and talking to someone in person is always the best idea.

>>16943812
It's normal. Either they've got someone and they won't call you back or they get a weeks worth of applications and they pick the one they want.

>>16943812

Most employers build up a few resumes for a position before hiring. They don't just call back because you came in. Keep trying.

You have FOREVER to be dead, trillions of years you'll be dead. No reason to start ahead of time.

>I don't like myself.

Maybe you have a flawed idea of who you are? Would be a shitty thing to kill yourself because you don't like something that isn't even there.

>you don't like yourself
Idfc just become super introspective. Do shit for the experience, by becoming suicidal your framing yourself in someone else. Disappear into the woods for a few days or idk take a week long sailing trip if you're done with being a human then explore other aspects of the world, why waste a life when you could pull a Chris Mccandless and hell maybe someone will write a fucking book about you and kids will know your name long after you actually die thinking about how cool it would be to have your life
