My son won't accept any gifts from me. What do I do?
He told me not to get him anything on Christmas, and his birthday is coming up in a week. I asked him what he wanted and he said nothing, so I told him I'd just give him money, and he said he would donate it if I gave him anything.
What do I do? What do kids want these days?

how old is he?

How about asking him why wont he accept gifts?
It could be because he acknowledges the efforts you parents put into him, or maybe he feels guilty about asking for gifts or stuff.
Bitch i don't fucking know, just ask him.

i have struggled with my mental health for a couple of years now however recently i have been experiencing auditory hallucinations which i thought to be caused by anxiety but i now believe it may be schizofrenia... but i may be wrong.
i live in council house and while i have carpet fitted the family living under me do not. this means that i can hear their conversations somewhat but they can't hear me. for a couple of months i thought they were just mean people and were talking...

Hello OP.
Firstly, I am sorry that you have been having such troubling experiences. I am not a mental health professional. However, in my opinion, you sound like you have definitely been experiencing some mental health issues. You should contact your doctor and talk to them about what you have experiencing and get some advice.
Schizophrenia is very manageable once it is diagnosed and handled correctly.
Good luck.

thanks man, told him about my anxiety and he referred me to therapy, really want to work to get my own place and studio equpment though.
Stop smoking so much weed, it can cause anxiety.
I used to smoke and dab daily, it was fine for a while. Now when I get high I get super anxious about my job, future, etc. When I'm sober I feel confident and relaxed.
I only get high if I'm sick, watching horror movies, or having sex with my gf. Otherwise, I don't need it. Only get high if you need to.
I'll be transferring to a 4 year college soon (compsci) and I'm afraid that I won't fit in with people. I don't go to parties, don't drink, don't want casual relationships or hookups, and I'm not really okay being friends with people who do that kind of thing. I assume like minded people group up, so what kind of thing should I be doing to make some friends and maybe even a girlfriend who's more like me? I'm okay with most things as long as they are appropriate and legal but I personally like games, drawing, programming, jogging,...

join clubs on campus. find the one with a few cute girls. be the first to make a move.
...have you tried lightening the fuck up?
I mean, not being friends with people who do hookups... why? What is the reason?
I'm a jesus freak who isn't interested in casual relationships or sex before marriage but I don't give a damn what anyone *else* does.

I would assume everyone going for that major plays games and likes programming..

Need tips on what kind of frames to buy.
Don't know why the image flipped. Tried to take a neutral face pic. But this is morning time before coffee, so ignore the serial killer look lol
>>16760769
why the long face?
but seriously, you're rather good looking for such a long face. assuming you arent a troll id recommend not styling your hair up. maybe grow it out on the sides a bit more. ur still handsome
>>16760773
they flip a lot 4chan does that
>>16760769
go to something like warbyparker and order trial pairs. walk into a retailer and express interest in purchasing, just don't actually buy anything.
sorry about the zika bruh.
So there is a girl that I really like we talk alot, we share ALOT of common interests shes cute and has a adorable laugh so sadly this is more then liking her for her looks. The issue here is a couple things
>Her ex is a good friend of mine, were all in the same friend group
>Pretty sure but not 100% sure she doesn't like me
>Told me she had interest in another friend of our group,but then told me she doesn't feel that way anymore
Now I really want to get over...

>Ex from a dude from the group
>Was interested in a different dude from the same group in the past, possibly still is
>seeing a random text notification I get excited hoping its her
Back off, for real. You need to meet new people.
>>16760670
I know I need to back off, and I make up my mind not to pursue her for a relationship. My issue is that I want to keep her as a friend really badly because I enjoy talking with her alot but I don't know if I should do that. Also if she ever does get in a relationship with that kid from our friendgroup I will have to avoid them all or else I won't be able to handle it. I know I need to meet new people but its very hard for me

> I will have to avoid them all or else I won't be able to handle it
Trust me, you just need more friends. You're overly-attached to this girl that A: Already has a past with dudes from your imediate social circle and B: hasn't given you reasons to believe the affection is mutual.
I know this shit isn't easy to swallow when you like someone, but this girl isn't unique. Start going new places like the gym or internet cafés and seeing new faces.You...

My sex drive is gone. The last time I fap was three years ago. I tried it with porn, pictures of naked women etc. Nothing helps. How do I get it back?
>>16760603
three years my ass.
how many wet dreams have you had since?
>>16760603
Go to a whore house and have a woman suck your dick for an hour straight no stopping even if you cum
Are you depressed? On medication? How's your energy and health otherwise?
Are you single then?
