eating animals is the best kind of eating. Just don't eat too many animals especially red meated type ones Nothing is wrong with eating. They live for you to eat them. Holy shit I just realized how fucking crazy it is that we eat living beings. Fuck it im not quitting my inherited cave man instincts meat gooooood.

>i love nature
>not realising that eating animals is part of the beauty of nature and not doing so for moral reasons is actually unnatural

I would only go vegan if it I'm dating a vegan to be honest.

Can humans be considered part of nature? People often make a distinction between man made stuff and natural stuff it makes me think of humans as something outside nature, with nature being just the back stage, something we can watch from afar and try to damage as little as possible.

Hey, /adv/.
I've been dating my bf for 8 months now. I am 21 and he is 25. I'm going to college this fall, which will be 2hrs from his place. I want to have the college experience (ex. Joining a sorority, living with roomates, joining clubs and making new friends)
I can't, for the life of me, have casual sex. I also can't drink because I'm small and throw up after having 1-2 shots of alcohol.
My bf is really worried that I will change if I join a sorority and that I will meet someone "better".

My questions are:
>what are your experiences with relationships were you were living 2-3hrs apart?
>how is the sorority culture like? ( I want to join a business sorority, if it makes any difference)

Thank you all for the input!

My advice is to break it off. It will make your "college experience" that much easier and enjoyable, and spare your so-called boyfriend a lot of heartache. Yes, you will be fucking other dudes eventually, so may as well do it with a clean conscience.
>>
I had a similar experience as you, but I was in the guy's situation.

It went to shit.

It's nearly impossible to keep a relationship together over multiple years when you are young and add to that you are not together on campus, the odds against. It has more to do with the proximity than it does joining a sorority. Unless you really believe your bf is who you will marry it best you guys end it amicability.

I have a Social Anxiety and think down on myself (I don't think girls like me even though girls friend have told me their friends like me) would tinder be a good decision for me?

If you're a guy, unless you're ripped or know how to take a decent photo, be sure to smile (properly, no fake smiles).

I actually tested this, 1 week with smiling and one week just straight faced, got tons of likes smiling and very few straight faced

How do you smile properly

I think Tinder works better for people with more social skills. I would suggest Okcupid since you find out more about the person and conversation is a bit easier.

Need your help guys

>work in kitchen as cook
>few months ago, we hire this black dishwasher (important for later)
>I generally get along with everyone, but for some reason he's never liked me
>I go out of my way to help him, try and get him out of work early, he shit talks me regardless of what I do
>whatever, I just ignore it

>yesterday
>I'm rushing to line, he lets me pass by
>I say "Thanks my nigga"
>said it to him before, never been an issue
>everyone in kitchen says it to and around him, no issues
>all of a sudden he flips out on me
>I apologize, didn't mean to offend him
>"Get the fuck away from me, I never want to fucking see you again"
>He gets sent home by manager a bit later for threatening me
>was telling people he was gonna come on line and knock me out, and that if he ever sees me outside of work he'll kick my ass

What the fuck do I do? Obviously wouldn't have said anything in the first place if I knew he'd be upset by it. We don't have any shifts coming up together, but I am a bit worried about him starting shit. For the most part, he's never been friendly towards me.

How do I fight? Never been in a fight, and worried about dying or something

>>16824520
never assume a fight will be a gentlemans fight. If you two are going to throw down you need to let your unbridled rage take hold. Become an animal you take him down no matter what.

Is flirting with a girl who has a boyfriend a bad thing? If not, should I expect her to break up with him or to cheat on him?
I never really cared much about that bro-code thing, her boyfriend is not my bro or anything. But should other people's couples be respected when they are not married?
I get along exceptionally well with this girl. I didn't make a move on her before because I was struggling with some personal issues but now that those are over she became some other guy's girlfriend. I'm not saying I'm better than him but my confidence is pretty high in this matter right now.

Imo it is only bad if they have kids and maybe if they are more well off and bought a house together.

If they're like 21 year olds just dating and having sex then go for it. Nobody gets stolen who doesn't want to be stolen...

Am I racist if I feel an intense feeling of disgust when a black guy hits on me?
23 posts and 3 images submitted.
>>
>>16824335
not really. Tho people will tell you you are.

Deep in our heart we all know there is a race that would gross us out to date.
>>
Depends on the feeling. Are you feeling disgusted because of his skin color, or because he won't leave you alone? His behavior? If you are judging him solely due to the color of his skin, yes, that would be a racist thing to do.

If you simply prefer not to date black guys, that is not racist.

Marry her.
No point in allowing someone to make a sacrifice that big if you don't want to be with them for the rest of your life.

She's committed, are you?
>>
>>16824035
Ever heard the term if you love something, let it free?

You guys will break up eventually, its life.
If shes feels she will miss out on the college exp. And stays with you, she will resnet you and then break up with you. Cut your losses.

This guy keeps coming up to me and I have 0 interest in him, I don’t want to lead him on or anything because due to previous events apparently me being friendly comes off as being flirtatious.

If I don’t reply and ignore his messages I’ll come off as being a bitch - I can never win.

Creep here.

Call him "creepy". Shit be a bitch, or he'll never learn. It's really better for everyone long-run.

I mean, false hope hurts everyone. It'll make him keep tryin', which will put other girls in your unfortunate situation (and we all know girls can't handle being asked out unless it's by Chad - so traumatic) which means he'll get hurt too.

Only way this shit stops is if you hurt him enough to prevent him from ever asking anyone out ever.

Gotta use that negative reinforcement lady.
>>
No you won't. Be passive. If he keeps pushing, tell him that you are not interested and it makes you uncomfortable that he's pushing it. If he has any respect for you, he will comply if he doesn't, you have reason to tell him to fuck off without appearing a bitch.

So I had to live with a band of fujoshi, which, if you are unfamiliar with the term, generally means anime fangirls that obsess over homosexuality in anime and manga. These people were terrible. For years, I had to endure their general grossness and poor hygiene, but the worst part was that I couldn't read manga, watch anime or play any games without them all clamoring over how gay this guy was for that guy, the incessant giggling, the debating over what character ships were best and then I'd have to here that terrible clacking of their keyboards while they live-blogged about how gay every male character in everything was. It wasn't just anime and manga, either. Movies, TV shows, video games, books, literally EVERYTHING. They would ask to borrow my things simply because they read about some homosexual pairing in whatever it was they wanted to borrow, not because they were actually interested in it! Now anytime I see the slightest bit of interaction between male characters, all I can think about is exactly what these fujoshi would be saying. I personally have no problem with homosexuality at all, it's a free world. To each their own! Seriously. But I'm so tired of seeing things like a fujoshi myself. I didn't mind these things before at all. Not one bit. But after YEARS of it, non-stop, everyday, it became so fucking grating to the mind I can HEAR WHAT THEY ARE SAYING EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE GONE NOW, I WANT TO ENJOY MY HOBBIES AGAIN PLEASE HELP.

Alright, so, this may sound like a dumb suggestion, however, it may be a good idea to distance yourself from the whole anime-manga aspect for a while. Why not take this opportunity to try out other activities that you have put off before, or have had an interest in but didn't act on. Also, I don't think you should expect something that went on for years to simply go away so readily. I'm sure that it sucks, but it takes time to forget certain things. Good luck!

I'd start with reading bad gay fanfiction make sure it's horrid either wise it will have the opposite effect. Once you read horrible gay fan fiction you will realise how stupid the mentality is.(Make sure the gay fan fiction is bad)
>>
>>16823847
This was actually the first thing I did. I abandoned anime and manga for other things, but the problem was that it didn't matter what I was doing. I can't even order a drink when I'm out without thinking "I bet that guy is gay for the waiter over there." Then I proceed to enter an internal rage, remembering these horrible people, and then I'll just sit there, raging in my own head, looking like I'm having Vietnam flashbacks. Some of my newer friends have even asked if I served in the Army, some jokingly commenting on my "PTSD face."

It seems to have gotten worse in terms of troll/bait threads but I don't think the advice has gotten worse since it always seemed to suck.

It's almost like /r9k/ the way that bait threads are the most replied threads.

A few points.

The OP has a responsibility to filter out what advice they want to follow, and what is bad advice. There is good advice, you just need to look for it.

There are always going to be trolls, especially in an anonymous environment such as 4chan, and you can't blame the whole board for the shit advice that's doled out.

Many, if not most, OPs here have already decided what they want to do, or they already know that what they want to do is a bad idea. They just want validation. That's assuming they stick around, many OPs make a thread and then disappear.

There's a hide thread button. If you don't like threads or just aren't interested in them, hide them. I have about 80% of threads hidden at any time.

It seems to have gotten worse though. No, it has gotten worse in terms of trolls.

But ignoring the troll threads, for legitimate threads that aren't from total retards such as job threads and becoming more social threads, most of it seems to be self-help/fortune-cookie bullshit.

Is it just me or does it seem to be a Hell of a lot easier to be a girl?

Just you.

I, for one, am glad I don't bleed guts once a month and have to look forward to getting my vagina basically ripped in half for like two hours while I give birth. Plus I like being able to do shit at night while i'm alone.
>>
Sure, it may SEEM like the grass is greener. The fact is, different people struggle with different things, and some of them may be related to gender, and some of them may not. You can't just generalise and say "it's easier being a girl", because not every girl experiences life the same way. Even if we are generalising, men have a harder time in some things, and women have a harder time in other things. It's comparing apples to oranges, you really can't say one is better or easier than the other, and you're a fuckwit if you think you can.

Use all your free time working for your local campaining center.
Learn the game
Eventually get paid for campaining
One day enough people will own you enough favors and you ill have made enough friends and then, just then, you MIGHT have a shot, but beware of this, because it could happen at your 30s or at your 50s.

it could be a hell of a ride or a soul crushing path.
