I'm a CS major at a really competitive school. I'm barely managing a 3.2 which I'm really happy for provided that half of my class dropped out or are repeating classes, but my family continues to scold me, threaten to stop paying for my tuition, condemn my girl friend and the time I spend with her, and consider setting me up with a therapist to stop my "addiction to weed" (I like to smoke after exams).
It's really stressful and also extremely difficult to even continue. I've had too many sleepless nights where I consider just dropping...

Do what I did with my Asian parents. Lie lie lie
I liked about my grades, I bared managed a 3.5 but I told them I have a 4.0
I had sex with my bf but I told them I was a virgin
I told them I did hw all the time but I played vidya
if all else fails, student loans aren't too bad. You're a CS major so you'll be able to pay them back easily

How do I get past the "Show me your grades" thing then?
>>16796266
CS major and can't create false grades. Maybe you should reevaluate your major.

Go about my business.
Why would this bother you, anyway?
Have you considered carpentry?

I don't want 2 but I kinda want to tell her she might be into it but I highly doubt it
>have had job for 3 months
>Everytime, a few hours before I have to go in, I start feeling really sick
How do i stop this
Sounds like you're having a physical reaction to work stress. Try changing careers to a more pleasant and fulfilling sector, such as a specialized trade. There are great job opportunities in carpentry now, apparently - everyone's raving about it.

Its a parttime job at a burger stand
Lmao
But the fact remains I've gone into work at least 40 times now and i feel sick as shit beforehand
I Havel exactly the same problem as OP. I wiek at the office,every morning is a horror.
The thing is there nothing bad about my job i jest stress a lot to the point od stomacaches headaches and crying...
I go fired already from to jobs for it, first after 8 months then after 4 months.
I got a new job recently this Monty,but im afraid to loose it again and it gets worse...
How can I persuade my oneitis I changed and get her to give me a chance? What should I tell her if I don't see her anymore and don't think she doesn't want to talk to me? How should I deal with it if she's so important to me? How can I find another one if I never found anyone who had her same personality in the whole world?
I just love her so much I wouldn't have any strength without the hope she would accept me
Show her that you're moving on in life and becoming an attractive man with a strong career, for instance by letting slip that you've taken up carpentry as a profession or hobby. Chicks go for guys with strong prospects, they're looking for a provider.
it's not love if it's not mutual.

I think she's gone to the point she would ignore SMS like that, I don't know how should I show her

You're right, but I could argue it may have been if I looked outside the same I feel inside
Hello, /Adv/.
So. This is the first time I ever ask for advice, hopefully I won't need to ask again.
After I had half a breakdown an hour ago, I realised how unhappy I am. I have a bunch lf problems, concerning my body (which leads to my unhappiness):
I'm 17 years old
1,74m tall
90-95kg (overweight, but fit, doing enough sport)
What my thought was during my "breakdown" is the following:
"I'm small"
"I'm overweight"
"I'm weak"
Although I do lots of training, the "I'm-weak-point"...

STRETCH
I've been texting a friend about my depressive episode, and they've been kind of flippant about it. I realize now, I'm obviously not making myself clear about just how serious the situation here. How do I tell them that my complaints aren't just the everyday bitching they've appeared to be?
May be better off seeking the help of someone more willing to hear you out.
>>16795906
Let me say it for him: Shut up. You've made it through all your episodes before, and you'll make it through this one too. You're clearly talking about this for attention, just like your creating this thread for attention.
His validation won't fix anything. What exactly do you expect him to do? What is his empathy going to do for you? What are you doing that is of any benefit to anything except your fragile ego? Talk to a psychiatrist if you need help, pusihng it on your friends is just mean-spirited.
what exactly are you asking of them? Don't start shifting blame onto your friends for your own depression; people have their own emotional lives to worry about and can't usually shoulder the weight of someone else's problems (especially since they have little they can do to improve it). As a depressive myself, let me tell you - don't drive your friends away by asking too much.
Why don't you tell anon what's been bothering you?
Ok boys online dating doesn't work
Do you have any tips on how/where to pick up girls
no clubs, bars or work pls.
I am from Germany if that is any help.
nah, online dating works just fine when you're attractive.
Out in public. Spend as much time as you can outside of your home. Wherever there are women, talk to them.
Alternatively you could give up on "picking up" girls and being introduced to them by family/friends/colleagues instead.
>>16795902
Seconding this. Online dating works. Figure out where you're slipping up and fix it.
I just accidentally swallowed a lemon seed. Will I die?

No
Next question.
no, but get ready to harvest a fine crop of ass-lemons when the tree is old enough to bear fruit.
Eventually, yes.
Does anyone else's mother still put a penis beaker and a small pack of Kleenex on your night-stand?

How do you personally go about hitting the reset button in your life?
This includes the more grand life-changes and also just getting yourself together and back to being "you"
I just feel so...at odds with myself
Maybe it's too much 4chan on the brain but I just don't feel right
I need to refresh, recharge and renew
So far I'm thinking about moving everything I don't absolutely need out of my apartment, maybe trying some new things
What do you do?
You need to get out of the basement, off the internet, and into a new career in a field that's less stressful and more rewarding, such as carpentry. Learn to work with wood, and you'll find your life improves drastically.
>>16795856
the best way to start over for me has always been to simply start over. i grew up military, so im used to moving. whether its to a new state, new town, or new apartment, the change helps.
if thats not happening i tend to kinda purge my old life. sell or get rid of everything i can, re organize the major furniture, etc. big on dropping people out of my life when i ruined everything or simply cant continue with them too.
>>16795860
yeah I'm used to moving around to and I plan to move by May 1
But there's plenty of work that I need to get done before then and I just feel stuck right now, hard to get myself motivated and moving around
Have you ever had everything you wanted? But I really mean everything, good friends, stable well paid job, someone you care and someone who cares about you back, every dream you had, every thought you put in your head to become reality. Have you?
Because I do, but yet again you feel empty on the inside. Like a big whooe of nothingness, just absyy....
>>16795790
add stress into the equation. nothing but pleasure shrinks the pleasure center.
>>16795795
The strees, the pain, lone nights thinking how to achieve something, rethink every possible way in a situation just to be prepared on everything, of course the negative scenario came first... And yup, you are definitely right.

I made this thread last night, but didn't get much of an answer. Thanks to the one guy that did, but wanted to know of a more permanent no-degree job.
What do people who are in their mid to late 20s do for work? What do you guys do? What do you guys do for living a large city?
A little back story about me is that I'm releasing from the army soon, and I want to live in the city for a year or so before settling for a permanent career in policing. But before that happens I...

Now that you're out of the Army, try a freelance career as a great way of making your money while being your own boss, and meeting a lot of interesting folk. If you develop basic skills in a trade like carpentry, you'll end up being invited into the homes of people from all works of life as a respected craftsman. Everyone from prince to pauper needs a carpenter from time to time, so you'll end up experiencing the whole spectrum of city residents.
>>16795762
Nononono, don't spread that carpentry stuff here mate, I'm looking for a white-collar/pink-collar work that doesn't necessarily have to profitable. I want to expand my experiences with something different. Plus carpentry in my city is heavily unionized, and competitive, requiring years of experience before being taken into a union. On top of that I had a friend ditch the idea all together because his union couldn't find him work-work going to senior members.
I was thinking being a bank clerk, but open to other suggestions.
so this guy i'm living with works in IT doing web hosting and such as. our wifi is connected to his work server. so this is my question: how much can he see of my traffic and how do i block it?
