Hey guys, what's my move here? A cute girl from my school saved a pic of me. I know it's super subjective, but is she into me or not necessarily? Do I say anything to her about this?
>>16936398
maybe shes making you into a dank meme
>>16936431
Well, it was a flattering picture, so that would be okay.

Anyone else here /terrifiedofintimacy/?
and/or how do i become not that
>>16936386
I think I am. That or I dont want to be in a relationship because I like to be alone alot. I cant tell which, ideally Id like a girlfriend who I hung out with 2 times a week.
>>16936992
i used to be ok with being alone, but not so sure now
hadnt wept for a couple of years(grief) but have cried myself to sleep for almost a week now
starting to lose motivation for basic things and interest, feeling pathetic
i really do not want to burden someone else with my problems
I don't believe in god or spiritual things in general. I spent a lot of time reading religious texts and books and I just can't get into it. I've accepted that I'm an atheist/agnostic and I can live with that.
The whole idea of hell still creeps me out though. I was raised in a religious household, but I never really thought about hell the way I do now. Just the thought that a place of eternal torment might exist, gives me the chills. I find the idea completely ridiculous and disgusting, but it still scares me for some reason.
How do I get rid of this childish fear? I believed in it as a child, but I wasn't scared of it until recently.
Hell was created to manipulate people's decisions. When you die, your body decomposes and those particles eventually spread elsewhere.
Hell is the same as being promised 72 virgins. We both know it's a lie told to dumb people to complete someone elses agenda.
Hell on earth.
There are few atheists or Christians today that believe in a literal hell, unless your a career criminal who harms people for a living op I really wouldn't worry either way.

I was diagnosed with depression five years ago. Three years ago my doctor stopped prescribing me antidepressants.
Recently I've been feeling like shit again (no motivation, little care, sleeping a fuck ton). I remember being the most unhappy during the spring and throughout the summer. I looked through my journal entries and I found it to be consistent.
>Do you guys think it's just a coincidence my cycle of depression in the spring months or could it be Reverse Seasonal Affective Disorder?
>inb4 "we don't fucking know go talk to a doctor" I can't afford to see a doctor right now.
as someone with seasonal affective disorder, there's no such thing as seasonal affective disorder.
Sometimes shit is the worst during February/early march due to the "buildup" of the lack of sunlight, but never past march.
take vitamin D regularly. if it helps, you have SAD. But if you're the worst in summer, it's something else.
>>16936435
sorry, disregard that I suck cocks: no such thing as "*reverse" seasonal affective disorder.
I hate the summers to op. Have to struggle trying to find a job and eventually give up and feel like shit all summer long. When fall comes around classes start and I don't feel so bad. I fucking hate this cycle. It started in middle school and now I'm in college. Sam's shit every year
Dupes, hobbies, etc

Do you even cry?
Do you main R.Mika in SFV?

Stop seeking attention you faggot.
I'm in a pre-development stage of making a horror film (filmed in one location). In short it's about a person (Marc) who is on the verge of breaking point due to weeks of being watched by an unnatural looking man (called The Man Outside) through the window, and only Marc can see him.
I always liked the idea that The Man Outside would never physically harm Marc, but focus groups and questionnaires suggest that The Man Outside should hurt him.. Purely because it's a horror. Even my own friends think it sounds boring. This annoys me. There's more than just death and violence.
What are some ideas I could do that would please both myself and the audience? Or if i'm to be completely defiant, how can I expand on The Man Outside doing nothing but still remain creepy?
Pic related, source of inspiration ('cept outside)
The idea is cool, but ultimately you cannot do a whole horror movie with that idea, there has to be some sort of escalation.
If you really want the man to be harmless, I suggest you escalate by making Marc increasing paranoid and delusional. Provide some auditory hallucinations, eventually visual.
You'll also need a way to end it in a way that is satisfying for the audience. Marc can end up hurting himself, or someone else in his delusion.
Good luck
That sounds boring as shit, you should be ashamed of yourself
>>16936306
this. there NEEDS to be death and violence
I've been with the same girl for a long time, wondering if I'm missing out on something if she's the only girl I ever sleep with. She's gorgeous but sometimes I wonder what else is out there. Am I limiting myself? We were each other's first, and I don't know if it's bad if she's my last.
It's a personal issue, as sex isn't a necessity
I can't read your mind
You're not missing out on anything. If you both truly love each other, that is the question. Sex is just one of the things you can do without anyway.
Not sure if this answers you question but, I met my fiancé at 18, I'm 21 now, turning 22 in a few months, and we're still together, still very happy, and the sex is still fantastic. We don't have as much time now with school and work, but we find a way. I've personally never once in these 3 years asked myself if I've missed out on anything (all that late teens early 20's bullshit like partying and stuff). I'm just not that girl. I think that as long as there's immense love in the relationship, good communication, honesty and respect, you'll always feel very fulfilled in your relationship. I do.
>Recently found out my lady friend gave somebody head, whom she wasn't even in a relationship with
>never had many friends until recently, not experienced in social situations, especially with girls
>I'm really protective of my friends for some reason
>obviously seemed very concerned, don't want my lady friend to get taken advantage of
>now she's pissed at me for "slut shaming her"
>mfw nit even sure what that is
Please help /adv/
You shouldn't concern yourself with the sex life of those you are not sexually involved with
>>16936251
K thenks
>>16936242
When I had something like that happen to me it was because I had some level of feelings for her and I was envious when she was doing this shit with other guys.
It sounds totally pathetic and I generally don't give a fuck nowadays but it sounds like you have the feels for this girl.
Tell her how you feel.
Hey /adv/ I am an autistic teenager, and I believe I am currently experiencing the emotion refereed to as 'love'. I like someone and I cannot bear the thought of them leaving my life, and we mess around in class a bit and talk a lot, a)am I in love b)does she love me?
1) No one knows but you
2) No one can tell you but her
You don't understand yesterday I mixed up being sad and being angry, secondly that sounds like a really risky strategy I mean anything could happen what if she hugs me without warning?
>>16936236
>yesterday I mixed up being sad and being angry
That's fine. Emotions sometimes are not clear cut, even if you don't have autism
>I mean anything could happen what if she hugs me without warning
I didn't mean to imply you should ask her directly.
You should ask her out, though. If you're worried about her hugging you without warning, you should be open with her and tell her about your condition.
Recently had a few girls come into my life and I got used to having a girl over at least twice a week. Now when nobody can come over I feel like shit. I keep messaging a bunch of girls to come over and I just come off as desperate af wut do?
I don't think it's something you can teach yourself. It just happens.
I don't know brah. Sucks to be dependent on other people for your own happiness huh. It's even worse when you think it requires the opposite sex. It takes time to figure it out how not depend on other people. Frankly some people can't do it and will always depend on other people. Kinda pathetic if you ask me. Just hope you aren't one of them.
I'm just chillin' on a Saturday night alone at my house watching Netflix. Pretty content if you ask me. How did I get this way? Not entirely sure. In my early 20's I probably would have to go out to a bar right about now to fill this void but now there is no void to fill. Like I said I'm pretty content just hanging out by myself tonight and relaxing. Recharging my batteries till the work week starts Monday. Not everyone has the mindset to be this way.

thanks for this girl anon
it's jess hannah, for your research
I really love and value this close friends friendship.
Weve helped eachother through break ups.
Weve been single and poor art students together.
We have great history and trust.
Then we both got gf's and his moced in with us and there was a small drama where his gf yelled at mine and I got pissed off, but we all talked it out and decided itd be best if we lived in different houses.
Fast foward to now and were still great friends and his gf has warmed upto me. But I'm starting to fear that she has warmed upto to me too much.
Before she was cold towards me.
Then she was warm and friendly.
But now...she touches my arms sometimes, makes excited conversation and sometimes even says some kinda mean stuff (not awful just critical) about my buddy.
How do I tell if she's trying to get with me or if I'm just being paranoid?
Because I would rather die than betray a friend so I need to figure this out.
How exactly does she touch your arm? That sounds kind of weird. Other than that, nothing wrong with friendly conversations.
>>16936198
Well like when I say something and she laughs.
Or there was this other weird moment where my friend was jamming with his band downstairs and I was playing upstairs in the living room on a guitar.
I found this really nice chord and just thought out loud "Wow, that's beautiful"
And I don't know what she thought I said, but she blushed and said "thank you"
And I screamed internally.

Danger, danger
Hi /adv/
I'm currently running in a student election in my college. At the moment i have just nominated myself, and I need about 150 online signatures from people in my college. I have a good few friends etc but a lot of them are mutual to the other guys running so its hard to get the numbers. I know i can change lives for the better if I become president. I know i can beat these guys.
But, i need to get over the nomination hump before I can get my campaign underway. Is there a way to be ruthless in asking people for nominations?
I'm sure if you just ask people will sign whatever paper you need
>>16936165
See that was the plan, however it's all done online (only student at my college can vote) and they can only nominate once. So if they've nominated one of the other guys, they can't nominate me. Is individually messaging people weird?
Take over what? Nobody cares if you're elected as a "president" of students. Focus on your studies instead. You're there to learn, not to change the world from the grounds of your college campus.
How do I tell my girlfriend that her only purpose in my life is being used for sex at my own convenience? I've cheated on her before, but she forgave me and I regretted it too since the other girl wasn't as good in bed as my girlfriend. Is there a way I can let her know this with the least negative side effects?
>>16936112
You sound like a fun person with great opinions, OP. Let's be pals.
What is, in your mind, the best realistic outcome you could possibly receive?
You just tell her that exactly. Do you want her to leave you after she hears it or no? You sound like a sociopath either way.
>be me
>24 year old female
>think 19/20 year old male coworker at crappy retail job is cute
>think he might be interested
>want a boyfriend but would be cool with just hooking up
How should I approach this if at all? This isn't going to be my career obviously, so it's not like I'm stuck here forever. Probably another year at most. We technically work in different areas, but I see him a lot and he comes to my area to work sometimes. My friend hooked up with a coworker and he ended up blocking her from everything and being a dick, but he was an ass in general. The guy I think is cute is really nice.
>>16936103
Don't. On work follow this rule: only go for all-ins. You can't back out. You can't fail. Otherwise it can turn ugly very fast.
So just go for it if you are serious, and if you are, its completely o-k
>>16936245
But wouldn't I need to start something in order to figure out if I was going to be serious? Like flirting or a date?
It's like eating in the bathroom
don't eat where you shit
