This is the only post you will read in this thread. Put on your running shoes, go outside and run. By the time you reach the end of your block you will have energy.
Now, go and run.

Okay, if you're sure
Hi /adv/,
Anyone ever searched out for their estranged father / mother after not having seen them since childhood / their entire lives?
I'm a 26 year-old guy who's had a pretty fortunate life. I, along with my fraternal twin brother, were raised by a single mother. 'Never' met is technically incorrect, since I know my father was around when I was very young (around 2-3), but my mother made the decision to seek a better life outside my home country (years ago she explained that he didn't want to be married and that he was younger than her and hadn't fully grasped that he had 2 sons) - and she did.
We've lived all around the world, I never lacked anything I wanted.
I'm in grad school to be an architect now, and I'm generally content with how my life is turning out.
But something keeps pulling me back to the fact that I've never known my father, and the curiosity took hold.
I dug out my birth certificate, searched for his full name, and the only results end up with a man that still lives and works in the city I was born in (found Facebook, LinkedIn, and several other websites with profiles of this man, along with pictures). I bear a striking resemblance to my mother, and my brother looks very different to me (darker skin tone, longer face) - and the man that I found, in certain pictures I've found online, has a passing resemblance to my brother. Certainly in the shade of his skin, as well as some features.
Part of me wants this for me. Part of me wants to share who I am and what I've made of myself to him.
Another part of me realizes that this man has his own family, with a wife and daughter (again, I came to this conclusion from pictures I saw) - and perhaps I will only end up finding nothing of value in the end.
Have low expectations.
I'm only 5'2 1/2-5'3, and a guy. I'm thinking about getting that surgery where they break your bones to make you taller.
Should I go for it?
>>16758268
why not just get swole as fuck and get a good career? Shorter people get faster gains.
Expensive, painful, going to cripple you for months and you're still going to be short.
If you could go from 5'2 to 5'10 then it would be worth it, but 5'2 to 5'5 is not worth it.
>>16758268
not worth it, anon.
What are some good questions to ask a girl in a gane called 20 questions ?
>>16758255
Did you enjoy sucking my dick?
After I fucked you, did you take your plan b pill?
Did your legs stop shaking after I gave you that third orgasm?
Will you go home and schlick to the video of our fuck session?
http://www.willyoupressthebutton.com/
Memorize these questions, or both of you read the questions on your phone.
"If you could get a million dollars for every second you left a baby in the microwave, how long would you put it in?"
I just can't do it /adv/. I can't feel how women feel about me. At least in a romantic sense. I feel as if I am never supposed to do shit without asking first.
For example, I would never attempt to hold a womans hand without asking first. Kissing a woman without asking its like... ALIEN to me. does that even happen?
Why are women turned off by men asking them to do stuff? I feel way more comfortable asking.
I went on a date the other day with a woman who I thought friend zoned me. I would love to try and hold her hand but I honest to god cannot read her romantically. I need help.
Why do you women make dating so difficult? It feels like anything I do could be construed as being not masculine or "bitch like".
>>16758211
>Why do you women make dating so difficult?
To filter out people who refuse to face their fears.
>>16758295
Women don't have to face their fears though. At least in the dating sense of things.
Why don't women like it when you ask for permission though? Like if a woman asked me first "can I kiss you?", I wouldn't mind and I woulodn't mind that she asked me.
What the fuck is wrong?
Is that even possible a guy would ask a girl to hang out and then flake out of fear of rejection or low self esteem or anxiety? Or am I reaching?
sounds like something I would do
No, that's definitely a thing. But if you think that's what happened then you should ask them about it.
They might just genuinely be uninterested, or a jerk.
>>16758604
>>16758612
Hmm, okay
But about asking them about it, wouldn't they be ashamed to admit its the reason tho?
I need some help /adv/
I text an old coworker of mine after not talking to her for two years. Itolf her that I miss her. Her response was "awwww I miss you too." Followed by "I am glad you held on to my number."
I'm having trouble deciding how to respond. I'm stuck between:
1. Oh yeah why is that?
2. I am too, we should grab a drink and catch up sometime.
Or is there a better way to approach this?
If it were me, I would ask why she thinks so.
>>16758202
Do you seriously need us to have your conversation for you?
2. Jesus. Just put yourself out there for once.
So a few days ago, i was approached by a girl on a bus stop, we talked a bit and she seemed really nice, when her bus came, i gave her my number. But she havent called or texted me since (about 4 days ago and i didnt get the chance to get her number). I did manage to find her facebook just by searching up her name, but even i know how big of a creep i am if i contact her, but alas i cant seem to get the girl out of my head.
So - Should i just wait and hope for her to text me, or go out on a limb by sending her a message online?
lmfaooooo
>>16758197
if she's interested then she'll contact you.
if she ain't interested then why the fuck would you spend the time and energy chasing her?
just put it on the backburner and move on for now.
>>16758197
message her on facebook and say that you saw she popped up under the suggestions of people you might know. that sounds believable enough. i've used that line before with some success. give it a shot. it's better than not trying at all
Looking for some stories or advice.
I've only been with one girl, my girlfriend, for 2 years now. I'm 20, I'm a bit bored of it. We took each others virginity and helped each other through our depression and moved out together. Problem is I'd like to see other people and not sure if she'd be down for an open relationship or not. Do they work? Should I just dump her? I care about her and don't want her to be heartbroken but I'd like to be free to be with other women.
Pic unrelated.
>>16758193
>Should I just dump her?
Break up. All an open relationship would do is make it easier for you to find another girlfriend while you stay with the one you got.
You want to fuck other girls but you don't want to make the hard decision of leaving her.
Too bad. You want out? Get out.
This is absolutely not what open relationships are for. Do her a favor and dump her. Go drown in a sea of pointless pussy for a few years, and then come back to us in a year or so and whine about how you gave up the best thing in life for some dirty snatch.
Just be upfront man. If she's not down, dump her. Just don't lie to her
Lol is it bad that i made a village in minecraft called the Gay Nazi Pirate Village.
>>16758161
What was your real-world inspiration to do it?
who cares it's a fucking video game marketed to 7 year olds
>>16758161
I don't know, I don't care
Is there a word or condition that describes:
"Forgetting" how to do something if done repeatedly. Saw i'm writing the letter S over and over in cursive really fast. It's very easy but eventually my brain dumbs out and I "forget" how to write the s.
Retardation
>>16758152

>>16758152
The forgetting is for about 2-3 seconds, and then I can continue. You think I have some ischemic brain damage? I used to hold my breathe and pass out a lot
What's up?
I have a question about background checks for actual full time careers (I just got my undergrad)
They say everything you've ever searched for on the internet is accessible and can't be truly erased. Well I've seen a lot of fucked up illegal shit on 4chan alone, and the fact that I've seen it means it's been on the ip at my house. I've never done anything seriously illegal (i mean I've stolen some gum or whatever, downloaded some songs) and would never hurt a fly, but I have been pretty seriously depressed before, and I ended up seeing a shrink for a while and while everything's ok now, I remember having some very dark conversations on facebook and random other places online, with random people over that time. All of that content was deleted on my end and the computer I used back then is broken now anyway. But..
Basically, can your internet history ever come up in a background check? Can it hurt you?
>>16758138
>Basically, can your internet history ever come up in a background check?
No. Background check is primarily criminal. No one cares about your google searches.
>>16758174
This, unless you're applying for a position with the NSA or something.
>>16758184
No I hate the federal government. I'm looking to probably become a public accountant. My degree was accounting.
I mean, I don't know this shit. It feels good to be laughed at

I was devastated. I'd been looking forward to this for such a long time, and now...now I feel like I hurt him. Like I made him feel inadequate. I don't know why I couldn't get off. Some things people have suggested may be that I had masturbated the night before, and so reduced sensitivity and made it hard to get aroused. I also heard that I might have been too nervous, so I couldn't get into it. What do you think /adv/?
And before anyone asks, I tried /lgbt/, they weren't much help.
>>16758126
>I also heard that I might have been too nervous, so I couldn't get into it
Psychological factor is huge. A lot of people struggle with maintaining erections when they're so goddamn anxious you can't even see straight.
The more you worry about it sometimes the worse it can get. The key is to really try to relax and enjoy yourself. I'm assuming you're pretty young, and I'm no doctor but if you don't have any heart or circulatory issues your ED is most definitely psychologically based.
Be honest with him about it, talk about it, let him know where you stand in the situation. If he really is understanding and loves you back he will work with you. Keep trying, relax, the more comfortable you get with him the easier it'll get. Rock on gayboi.
More foreplay. Lots of touching and licking. Tell each other what you like and why you like it, try saying what you'll do next. Don't always do what you say, pixie trickster stuff makes it even more fun. This works 90% of the time.
>>16758151
Given that I was quite nervous the entire time, it's certainly possible. When I masturbate, I have no trouble getting hard and ejaculating.
>>16758157
Pretty much all we did was cuddling and foreplay. So I don't think that was it. We did plenty of kinky shit, and I was hard a rock when we were laying on the bed. As soon as he started sucking my dick though, I just...couldn''t stay hard.
Where can I get an online job? I don't want to live off that money but some extra money would be nice, I'm a 18 year old student.
>>16758123
are you female?
>>16758128
No, but I look somewhat femenine... can I earn enough money as a camwhore trap?
Over and over again, I am getting low marks on written exams due to my shitty handwriting. When I write quickly, even I have trouble reading it. How can I improve my handwriting anons?
Deliberately practice writing neatly until you can do it faster
>>16758115
Same senpai. I try slowing it down a bit but during exams you automatically speed up. I've seen some people turn the pages 20 to 45 degrees to make up for it.
>>16758115
By writing a lot.
