I'm not sure quite what to do. My family and I have been living in a motel for the past week waiting for our rental application to be approved. The apartment was to be rented in my dad's name but when they ran a credit check, it came back showing that he owed $1400 in unpaid rent to a previous landlord. He was completely unaware of this but we still tried to get the place. My dad called back an hour ago informing me that we were rejected and now we have no place to go. Our money is dwindling by the day and we can't afford the motel any longer. We'll probably be out in the streets in 2 or 3 days. Me and him are calling places to see if we can find a place to rent but we're unsure if any landlord will be willing to take a risk with a person who owes a month's unpaid rent to a previous landlord. I'd apply for a place but I've got no credit history (full-time college student, never taken out a loan nor owns a credit card) or stable income (though I recently got a part-time job that will probably end in March because of classes).
tl;dr: How can we get an apartment with that debt on my dad's credit history? I doubt we can get a cosigner. My dad has little to no friends willing to cosign with him and his wife is too much of a cunt to even suggest that one of her family members can do it.

Stop whining some of us don't have motel rooms to live in
>>16787826
thats rough bro. best you can do is apply under your moms name, and your name and just keep trying. even if you can only get a small studio or something to live in, its something to put a roof over your head til you get the situation fixed. i was able to rent without credit, but i had to have a cosigner and that was my dad.

You drop out of college and work to help your family
seriously its not that hard, having your degree at your 24-5 is not the end of your life
How do I factor this?
(a2+b2)+a2-b2
>>16787824
if you mean a2 & b2 as a2=X b2=Y you have
X+Y+X-Y=2X
Is it just this? or am I missing something?
>>16787824
This is not a factor.
a^4+a^2b^2+b^2
I feel like a girl is cheating on me every time we don't talk. I always feel like I'm going to find something out about a girl like she was trying to fuck someone before we got together or she cheated on me and I never knew. Shit like this happens with every single girl I've dated and I live in a small community so you really get a feel for how girls are.
What do I do? I'm always afraid I'm going to get emotionally invested and then find out it was all lies and she cheated on me the first week we dated or something
Inb4 insecure this was learned
>>16787818
>cheated on me the first week we dated or something
It's not cheating in the first weeks of dating.
>>16787825
I mean first week of being in a relationship
I still wouldn't want a girl that ratchet anyway I'm looking for long term stuff
You're investing yourself too much in your women.
Most women won't cheat on you if you're attractive, treat them with respect, and satisfy them in bed.
But even if you do all those, a girl still might cheat if she's a slut deep down.
You have to accept this and be prepared for it. When a girl cheats on you, that's when you say "cool when can I get my things?"
Collect your belongings and never talk to them again, on to the next one.
Focus on yourself for happiness, don't depend on other people. If you...

My girlfriend has had pain in her ovaries from sex for over 6 months. It first started after hard sex then lasted during the day too. She usually has it in the left ovary (i thought it was because i hit there too much when we had sex). And after an ultra sound they said that the cysts she had went away. Now she is taking two birth controls implanon and the pill. They both mess with her hormones, she has depression on top of this and this combination has gotten rid of her sex drive but she still wants to have sex shes just scared of the pain.
What should we do? She thinks...

She should see a doctor. That's all you really can do.
I make good money, I have my own house, and I don't give an iota of a shit about dealing with relationship horseshit.
An attractive friend of mine approached me recently wanting to move in. I told her it would never happen unless she agreed to a multitude of rules and, surprisingly, she agreed to them. However, she doesn't like one rule, that one being that she has to please me any time I so choose. Her problem is that she thinks that rule will be abused, turning her into a 24/7 sex slave.
I proposed a system that she has agreed to. A system where I...

ill take 'shit that never fucking happened' for $500, alex
The fact that you're demanding her to be your sex slave is pretty damn scummy of you. The only possible explanation as why you'd propose such a thing is that you're pretty much unfuckable.
So I've been chatting to this chick for a while yeah and then we finally kissed and shit with her taking the first move, so at this point I assumed we was pretty much in some form of close relationship then.
Just a day later while i was on the street, I see her with a bunch of guys I've never seen with her before in a restaurant chatting with them all friendly and flirtatious and shit. So then i thought fuck this bitch she was playing with me so i just went by and went to link my boy but then bumped in to some chick I use to talk to a lot in highschool and...

Hi, I'm 18 year old student from Northern Europe.
I'm currently living with my parents. I'm scraping by my studies (ICT related subjects), I have zero motivation. Parents think I just have a bad attitude and that I am lazy.
Depressed for 6 years now, diagnosed 2 years ago. Major cause for depression was bullying throughout my younger life (from 7 to 16 years old). My parents also think that depression is just an excuse for me to be a lazy fuckwit.
>>16787770
I'm currently attending a psychotherapist, but our schedule is irregular at the moment. She knows most of the things I have just told you, but she doesn't know that I'm also suffering from my "gender roles". Yes, I know that word is a joke, but I couldn't find a better one to express the feelings I have.
I don't know what for I even created this thread, maybe I just wanted to vent.
Just ask if you want more information, I'll gladly answer.
>>16787770
Bump.
Another bump.
I am a 22 year old guy and I have dark circles/baggy eyes similar to pic related, probably a bit worse..
I'm really self conscious about it and feel like it makes me really unattractive. Is there anything I can do to fix this? I've been trying to get more sleep lately and it hasn't seemed to help.
>>16787759
Try getting regular sleep(8 hours). waking up with the sun.looking at screens less.
Exercise and eating healthy could help. Fruits and vegetables .
I have the same thing, for me it's just genetic. My husband likes them, though, he's always had a thing for the tired eyes (for some reason). Regardless, it's not some terrible defect that renders you unattractive, it;'s just a quirk you have.
If you're really self-conscious about it, you could try a hint of concealer to even the tone.
I have this. It's either a nutrient deficiency or genetic. Do either of your parents have the same?
If it's just a nutrient deficiency, you may have to eat healthier- drink plain water and eat more veggies and good meats.
Hey /adv/ I'm thinking of hanging my heavybag in the garage since I have no space whatsoever in my home. What I'm worried is that if I use the heavybag the garage ceiling might collapse in on me? Will the garage have enough support to hold a 24kg bag?
Pic related is the type of garage I have
it's only 50 pounds
make sure its on a center support beam or some part of the frame and it will be fine
>>16787763
Thanks! Seems like I was worried for nothing.
I know this is a weird question but I'm a 19 year old guy who's going to college but living with his parents. The thing is that my parents are pretty old fashioned and overall I don't look nerdy at all. I've really wanted to get an anime figure for while but I'm afraid of the reaction since it would seem so unlike me to be into that sort of thing in their eyes. My parents know I watch a bit of anime but the only thing they've ever watched was princess Mononoke(I convinced them to watch it).

>order it online
>get it in the mail
>keep it in it's box in your room wherever
Heck you could even hide it in your closet or a drawer or something and they'd never even know it existed.
>>16787750
How could I get it before them checking the mail first? Could I pick it up at the post office directly?
Why would they open your mail?
I'm writing anonymous postcard to my crush, hopely she will get it valentine's day. This is little new to me so i'm hoping that you could give me some help with it.
this is what i have come up so far:
''Happy valentine's day!
I just wanted you to know that you bring joy on someone's life.
Hopefully you won't experience my approach unpleasant, it certainly isn't my intention.
in case you want to thank me for this card, here's email where you can contacto me (anonym email).

its gonna be creepy no matter what but
>i just wnated you to know that you bring joy on someones life
probably doesn't help. even if no one else paid attention to her that day, it gives this thing like 'ur not THAT bad cuz at least i like you'
>>16787740
>Hopefully you won't experience my approach unpleasant, it certainly isn't my intention.
Never, ever say shit like this. The moment you start trying to convince them it's NOT creepy, is the moment you are 100% certain to be labeled creepy
Does she know you? Have you had conversations with her before? If she's pretty much a stranger, then this will be creepy no matter how you write it
>>16787740
If you're 13 yo might work, if not, grow a pair of balls, avoid this valentine's day bullshit and ask her to hang out, proceed from there.
hello all, I am rather fat, around 300 lbs. I have large pancake nipples where the arreola is stretched out and are larger than a quarter. They are a result of my lifelong overeating and are a constant source of shame and embarrassment for me. My question is: when I lose weight, will they gradually return to their normal size, i.e. tiny regular man nipples, or will they stay stretched no matter what and surgery will be the only way to fix their appearance? I wish I was posting this thread for laughs but this is unfortunately what my life has come to and I can only endeavor to...

>I'm worried about my nipples
>i am rather fat at 300 pounds
maybe focus on that instead
Don't look for excuses not to lose weight. You have to take it one step at a time. If they stay stretched, you can deal with that when it's time to deal with that
read the subject? I didn't ask for advice on losing weight, I am not worried about it at all and know it's a challenge I can surmount. I'm worried that once I do all of that it will be for nothing because my nipples will look saggy and horrendous.
Literally cannot function in school because the pain of my ex leaving me is too much. i can't connect with people anymore. I just told one friend that I don't deserve his kindness and that we probably shouldn't talk anymore.
how do i stop being an emo faggot, /adv/?
>>16787734
by stoppiong. fake til you make. when you have spare time spend it on doing your best to have fun. not numbing leisure like video games, but big adventures with friends.
Why do you depend on other people to make you happy? Don't you have any goals or hobbies?
If you're getting so crushed when a woman leaves you that you can't function, you invested too much of your happiness into her. You have to learn how to experience women as partners, not life sources.
>>16787734
Quit being a bitch. Especially over women. The sooner you realize it's the dumbest shit you can do in your life the better off you'll be in life.
My dad was dying of cancer my last semester of college. I ended up graduating with a 3.4 GPA a month before he passed away. Yeah it really got me down but I got through it. I'm pretty sure that pain is worse than that of an ex... wait it absolutely is worse.
Is it an invasion of privacy to log on to your SO's Facebook or look at their texts? Is that considered stalking?
Yes and yes
>>16787721
yes. why wouldnt it be
>>16787721
If you're doing it without their knowledge/permission, then yes, absolutely
Is it immoral to date a student of yours once they've graduated?
>>16787713
morals are generally defined by religious texts. so crack open your relevant book, or go talk to a religious figure if ur too lazy for that.
but are you REALLY interested in going to hell? or just worried about what people will think of you?
If they're of legal age and they're not just doing it for networking purposes, then no
If you teach high school or younger, though, it might damage your reputation. Lots of people would consider it creepy if you met while she was still a child. If you teach college, and that's where you met her, nobody will care.
Morality is subjective. I would say, assuming you're talking about someone graduating from university, there's nothing wrong with it.
If it's from high school it's different imo. Even though they might be of legal age, there is/was an obvious power relationship between teacher and student at that level which makes any relationship questionable.
