I'm 18 and my whole life my parents have done everything for me like cleaning my room, cooking, doing the laundry ect. They want me to start doing this stuff myself now but just the though of it makes me stressed as hell. How do i do all these basic house things without flipping my shit?
Just do it and stop being a cunt
Think out a schedule and stick with it. If you need to learn the basics any search engine will help.
It's actually some of the easiest and most relaxing stuff. Have you ever suffered from a real problem? I assume only one or two. To give you a rough idea, wiping your own ass should inflict about 0% of the damage that a real problem does.
Okay so basically a "friend" invited me to go home with him to Malaysia. He can be nice at times but 90% of the time he's a dick. Plus he has a lot of mood swings. I have trouble with saying no and his parents already made contact with mine and arranged everything. My dad bought the tickets but after researching a bit on the airline you can still get refunds.
We go to Boarding school together and I don't want to spend my time off with him
Have you tried saying "no, I don't want to go"?

I've got one simple question, but answering it depends on some story, so here we go.
I'm kind of not really social person. Most of the time spending at my apartment, having fun programming, sometimes hiking, working out and running. Not really into relationships. I've spent lots of time being in few and I considered it a waste of time. Never met any girl matching my interests so been doing just common shit together. I really don't like meeting new people so it helps.
Getting closer. Right now I'm working at some heavy industry factory. They pay...

Employers who actually pay decently want employees who have good interpersonal skills. You can be the best in your area and still have trouble finding a job if you're incapable of getting along with other people. Work on your social skills if you want a good job.
Alright so I can assume there are no alternatives even if I exclude money as a factor?
It might sound creepy, but I fell in love with a girl I haven't met and she doesn't know I exist.
I know about her from a friend of mine who tried his luck with her, but it didn't work out. I've been stalking her social media since, holy shit we have a lot in common including sense of humor, interests, political opinions etc.
I also look better and more sociable than my friend, so I think I definitely have a chance.
The question is, since she lives in another city, how to approach her without seeming creepy? Should I try to run into her...

It sounds creepy because it is creepy.
>I've been stalking her social media since
That's creepy.
>how to approach her without seeming creepy?
You can't, because you're fucking creepy. Women smell that shit from a mile away.
You, sir, are grade A, 100%...

Lmfao kinda saw this response coming, but for real though it's not as bad as it sounds, I'm just a little lonely cause I haven't had gf in a while.
>>16894690
>I'm just a little lonely cause I haven't had gf in a while.
Well, nothing more attractive to women than a creepy, lonely guy who stalks them online then travels long distances to track them down and "accidentally" bump into them.
Keep up the good work. I'm sure this strange, pathetic strategy of yours will pan out.
im about to be interviewed for a personal piece by a local tabloidish magazine.. im worried my ex or her faimly might talk shit about me in the comments section... should i just do it anyways?
>>16894667
You don't want advice, you just came here to tell us that you're going to be in a magazine and you want us to ask you questions about why you're going to be in a magazine.
Go away, kid.
>>16894686
no not really... actually im pretty nervous about the whole thing and its not in my character at all to seek out this kind of attention but my friends told me that if i dont im being a total pussy
but yeah i have one ex that hates me and thats the only rational fear i think so if anything i want people to say dont fucking worry about it blah blah blah
I've got a biology exam on Friday and I don't know shit since I've spent most of my days in class wanting to kill myself and so I couldn't pay attention (I'm seeing a professional right now). Biology isn't my strength. Any tips?
>>16894659
You want us, people who have never been to your biology class, to give you tips on how to pass an exam in said biology class which you haven't studied for.
This is /adv/ kid, not /doimpossibleshit/
Fucking study, I don't know, what do you want us to tell you?
>>16894666
I just wanted general advice on studying with a short period of time and taking exams when you know shit all because you've been feeling shit all term.
Okay you're asking for it.
Anyway, uh, start reading the lessons on your own time? Ask the teacher for help with what you cant teach yourself, playing dumb like you didn't understand when he already taught it?
I did a few big lines of pretty high purity coke, if I do some speed after is it dangerous? Can't find anything conclusive.
You can't find anything constructive because that's an idea for fucking burnouts. Where is the money in "meth and coke at the same time" research? How is one at a time not enough? If you are done with the coke, rest, and do the speed later.
>>16894628
>if I do some speed after is it dangerous?
You're asking us if doing speedballs is dangerous.
Seriously?
You're too stupid to survive. Go for it. If the irresponsible drug use doesn't do you in wandering into traffic to chase something shiny or staring at the sun too long will.
>>16894645
speedballs is coke and an opiate, not coke and speed.
I like this girl but i dont know what to do, we went iceskating last weekend and she said to one of my friends she noticed i got a lot better, also how would i find out she likes me?
>>16894609
well what she said maybe a compliment or she has taken an interest in you since she has noticed that you got a lot better. if you want to find out anon just notice how she reacts to you when you talk with her or you could actually ask her yourself but that might end up bad for you if she doesn't like you but hey that's just my opinion that will maybe try to help you on what to do about it but it all depends on you
There's a site that is quite popular among the teenage community, and it mirai.com. This may sound ridiculous, but it is basically a ripped off version of a children Disney game clubpenguin.com, despite how innocent it may sound it is not only violating copyright laws but it is also putting teens at risked, there's constant cyber bullying and the people that are supposedly monitoring the behaviour are certainly not doing their job correctly.
If you're capable of taking down this website, or know anyone that could please do so.
I would appreciate it immensely.
>>16894595
We're not your personal army and you're certainly not going to find help in taking down something over a trivial situation. My guess is, you or someone you know got your poor little feelings hurt. If they can't take it, they need to log off.
Long story short, my ex and I still hang out, largely because we still have college classes together. She's met a new dude and when I learned that I immediately made sure it was okay her and I still hang out.
>I'm completely over her romantically, she's just a great friend
She says he knows about us, and that he's fine with us spending time together. But often when we hang out it goes way into the morning, like 4am plus, even though it's literally just us talking and listening to music.
What are the odds this...

>Bros, if your girlfriend talked to her ex a lot, had classes with him, and stayed out with him about once a week until ~4am how would you feel?
Most people, in general, would be very uncomfortable with that. I would immediately drop a guy if he was still that close with his ex-girlfriend. Because when you're in a new relationship, you don't automatically give your trust to someone. You build it up, mutually, over time and shared experiences. And it's a lot easier to run when red flags hit you in the face instead of investing yourself and learning the hard way.
How often do you guys get rejected by girls?
I'm really shy and insecure so I only ever get laid through occasional tinder matches, while travelling or if a girl is obviously hitting on me
I've never initiated flirting or "cold approached" or whatever and was curious what a "normal" rejection rate is
so /adv/ how often/how many times has a girl rejected you?
Rejection to me is like failing to learn a new skill.
Without rejection your approach would always be the same.
It happens to everyone. Learn body language and this rate will decrease.
Never.
[spoiler]Because I get rejected by other guys instead.[/spoiler]
Never. Because I am too chicken shit to ask in the first place. Don't be like me, op. Learn from my mistakes. It's not too late for you.
hi guys,
don't know whether this is the right board. nevermind.

Hey adv
I've been working at a retail clothing store for a year, sometimes I take cover shifts at other stores but not so much lately. I had a shift on a public holiday at one of the other stores on my roster but didn't go because I wasn't contacted by their manager to work on that day. Will my manager complain at me for this?
If it was his duty to advise you to come in to work and he did not inform you to come in then in theory he shouldn't.
But
He most likely will.
Also I knew I was supposed to work on that day according to my roster but I thought it was a mistake and didn't go because no one asked if I was able too but now I'm unsure if my manager told me 3 weeks ago. I study every weekday and work every weekend. So I have no idea if my manager told me ages ago but I don't remember being asked.
Will I get in the shitter? Feel like quitting if I get told off rudely because I've accepted a lot of scrap for the job, taking extra shifts, always vacuuming, deal with co-workers drama.
Sorry for the bad grammer
You're gonna be out of a job soon, anon.
Well, not really, but you will probably be bitched at by your boss for a few minutes.

lol
trim, shower pls, have a condom always in case shes not on bp. relax.
>>16894515
This, apart from
>have a condom always in case shes not on bp
ALWAYS use condoms until you know for sure she's free of STDs. I don't care how much you trust her or she insists she's clean - some people can carry things without displaying symptoms, and others can take years to manifest themselves. Have her get an STD test, and get one yourself if it reassures her (I know you're a virgin, but it might help)
>>16894504
No. Don't waste your money. She ain't giving you entrance into her bat cave. I can assure you of that.
/adv/ i fucked up.
A few months ago a very good and close female friend of mine told me she was cheating on her boyfriend. I personally knew her boyfriend but I never told anyone anything because fuck, i didn't care. About a month ago things become stormy between me and the girl and we had a fight. In any case no hard feelings and such in the end, but i was pretty much sure we weren't going to talk again any time soon.
Fast forward a few weeks and i tell the secret to a common friend of ours because, meh, it made up for a funny story for someone knowing...

You can't. You made your bed, now you've got to lie in it.

>So, skipping the fact that i am a complete asshole and make bad choices, how can i mend things with her?
Why are you so worried about mending a friendship with a morally bankrupt person? The only bad decision you've made, in my eyes, is not telling the boyfriend.
>>16894533
We have very similar interests, enjoyed each others company and she gave me a unique take on life. I admit it's a pain to lose her, no matter how morally bankrupt she may be. I was much closer with her than with him so i didn't want to tell him anything.
