quick question
how do I start conversation with the girl on social media
I met her before once and we know each other but didn't talk much and all, I wanna ask her out and stuff and avoid friendzonepit you know the stuff
>>16629752
Quick! You know when people take a couple days between dates. Or sometimes weeks. I'm so popular. For me it's years! Yea, go figure.
>>16629755
what?
Reminder her who you are(recall upon said event)
Project a good image of yourself(through your actions, through what and how you communicate, focus on your strengths)
Most likely she will pay little attention since she dont know you, get her attention. Be distinct, dont act like another "guy friend". You need to position yourself where you wont be friendzoned, be a little flirty. Complement her.
Thats howd i start but after you need your own social prowess to fill in gaps and continue on.
I’ll be getting married late this year, will be bringing up the subject of last names very soon. My fiance’s family really sucks. Well, his mom’s side, anyway. His grandfather is a serial adulterer, his mom is a trainwreck in every way one could be. I have no desire to perpetuate his family name. At the same time, I’m very traditional and I believe the wife should take her husband’s name. So having him take mine, or use a hyphenated name is not on the table. I’ve come up with a compromise, and that’s to take his middle name as my last name. Perhaps suggest that he change his middle name to his last name, for the sake of our names matching.
What do you think of this? Weird? Reasonable?
>>16629735
It's fine, why don't you like the idea of using your last name though? I never got why it was such a big deal to people
>>16629740
Just my personal traditions. I'm from the south from a very traditional family. Women should take their husband's name.
>>16629745
That's fine if it's your personal thing but you can fuck off if you judge other couples for it, especially if your only argument is 'but it's tradition!!'
I kinda caught feelings for this girl I know. The problem is we only talk in this group chat with this other girl. There's basically 3 of us in this group chat and she treats the other girl like gold meanwhile she always puts me down any chance she gets. The other girl also talk about setting her up with guys but it never happens. Should I even bother going after a girl who can't even show me an ounce of affection?
God. Just crop the image or something next time you newfag. 9gag? Really?
I hate parties and the only people who invite me to other things are people I'm not really close with, so I don't go. I just have no desire to go anywhere, it's weird.
The only time I leave the house is for gym twice a day. I work from home and I'm content with life. But I can't get grills? What do I do?
tinder
>>16629727
Never thought of that. What a time to be alive.
I struggle with keeping women around. Just hear me out as I write my blog post and tell me what I'm doing wrong:
>date a girl in college for 1.5 years
>it's becoming toxic but I stick around anyway because I'm convinced I can save it
>she dumps me at 22 because she's not feeling happy
>keeps calling me for a few months afterward to "chat" and gets more antagonistic
>at one point she screws me out of a job
>cut her off and haven't talked in 5 years, hear that she's happily married now
>dating a girl at 24
>everything is perfect
>having hesitations because I'm not sure if I'll be moving and don't want to lose her
>tell her and she says nothing
>get nervous that this might not be "the real deal" and maybe I "could do better" and tell her I need to let her and have a clean slate
>walks out on me and leaves me a letter, letter basically says:
>"anon, I would've stuck by you no matter what you did with your life. You just needed to shut up about it."
>she now curses my name whenever I'm brought up in our collective circle
>dating a professional qt3.14
>we have so much in common
>she's depressed and having some physical symptoms with her lady bits
>support her 100%
>relationship only gets stronger
>we hang out and just shed tears of joy because everything is so wonderful
>out of the blue she leaves me because she can't envision a future with me anymore
>have the most heartfelt and tearful breakup I've ever had
>still talk to her on occasion, she's still miserable but won't date me
>dating a girl for almost 2 years
>going to propose when she comes back from her trip abroad
>she cuts off contact with me
>try to reach her and I can't
>calls me on her return flight to tell me she's breaking up with me
>she's a sobbing mess and tells me that she was never happy with me
>won't tell me why
>implies it might be something about me but never says why
>tell her to fuck off and never talk to her again
>she's now dating a 10/10 Chad and happy as shit
I think we need more information.
What makes you say the first relatiinship had gone toxic? What made you think you could save it? And what do you mean when you say she screwed you out of a job?
You said the second relationship was perfect, yet you were still worried about whether or not you could do better? I'm also sensing some indecision about your own future during this time.
MOST of the third relationship sounds like it might be on her, but the "no future" thing gives me pause, because it seems too similar to what came before.
The fourth breakup barely even makes sense. It sounds more like a poorly-executed gambit to prevent you from clinging by getting you pissed off. The key phrase here is "poorly executed": you have to leave the person you're dumping without any unresolved questions, and she failed to do that.
I've got an initial hypothesis, OP, but I'm not confident in it yet. My big question is this: what's your job situation? What have you been doing with your life these 7-odd years? What does your future look like?
My hypothesis, OP, is that you're stuck. At any given moment, you've been more or less fine as you are, but there has always been a shadow over what you could become. You know this, and you've discussed it with your girlfriends, which is the responsible thing to do, really. But they've always been expecting you to overcome it within a year or two, and when that hasn't happened, they've gotten scared. They wonder if you ever will, and the answer keeps coming back no.
Does this sound like this makes any sense? If it does, then tell us about it. Maybe we can help.
>>16629723
how long were these other relationships? you mention one being 1.5 years, another being 2.
i dont know why you call that 'struggling' cuz those two are both long relationships. even if you had to work at them, tahts normal.
a lot of people act like the rest of the world is somehow perfectly monogamous for the last 20 years because you only look at them, see them happy at that moment and assume their relationship 'worked out'. you ignore the fact that they all have broken up with tons of girls and will continue to break up with tons of girls.
you are doing the same thing. sounds to me you've had several long term relationships, and several possibly short ones. thats completely normal, and you cant blame yourself just because relationships end. that is the nature of relationships in a world where people are no longer property.
even if you manage to find the 'right girl' and get married, chances are you will still get divorced at some point.
you really cant blame yourself for how relationships naturally work they are the most fragile of all human interactions.
>>16629844
>>16629844
Damn. This is honestly the best response I've gotten on /adv/ to anything. Your hypothesis is pretty spot on.
I'm going to just answer your last questions, desu.
>what's your job situation?
I'm a teacher, and I've jumped between schools over the past 7 years. I didn't stay in town near college like a lot of my friends did, ended up moving back home and hated it but I got a free ride through grad school. Dated relentlessly during this phase after my college gf dumped me, but nothing stuck.
I ended up getting a job a few states away back near college and thought it was a godsend. It ended up being crushingly lonely and just made me even more depressed. I had a gf who was basically long distance while I was up there (didn't mention her before), but she wasn't very supportive. I spent a lot of nights sitting up till 3am alone without heat or proper lighting, usually drinking tea and reading to keep my sanity.
I left that after a year because wtf not and got a job at a boarding school, which was grueling. This is where I dated the middle two girls (and a few others I didn't mention). It was a mixed bag, mostly negative, and became a dark cloud over everything I did. "Sorry, we can't go out Friday, I'm on duty. Yeah, I know, I should quit, but it's getting me through. But next Tuesday I'm free! Oh, you don't want to spend time in a dorm with teens... I get it... no, I do..."
I quit that job while in a relationship with the last girl. She was excited for me, but the new gig (which is my current one) was a really tough transition. All's well now, but she dealt with the bad and wasn't a fan of it. A common phrase of hers was "you keep spinning your wheels, anon. Just make up your mind. You're making me think you're not very good at your job." She was also a teacher and adored, so I had to hear it constantly. We competed a lot, unfortunately.
I'm turning 30 this year (oldfag, I know). It's tough.
Hey /adv/ I have this weird thing going on my friend
Basically this girl and I have been friends over the years. A few years ago she had a crush on me, but I didn't pick up on it and started seeing this other girl. Fast forward to last year and on, her and I have been drunkenly hooking up randomly and I don't know how to take it. Over the last year we have probably drunkenly hooked up about 3-4 times (honestly I lost count). She always says that she is over me but if doesn't seem like it to me, as we always seem to hook up. We just hooked up last night (when sitting with friends she sat on my lap and kept putting my hand near her vagina, we were sleeping next to each other and started making out but he friend came to "break it up" and she ended up sleeping next to her). Help?
OK great job covering your sexual relationship with her, 10/10
Nooooow let's get to the juicy bits: emotions
How do you feel about her?
>>16629731
I always had a little crush on her, but she always refers to me as "just a friend" so I never took it that she is interested otherwise. But these random hook ups make me feel otherwise.
final bump
Hey guys happy new years. Hope you had some kind of fun...
Anyways, I need some advise.
+ Been in a relationship for 4-5 Years.
+Known each other for more than that.
+ barely turning 25.
+living in my best friends family garage while I finish my EE degree only 1 minute away from gfs house.'
+Started an Ecommerce company with a CS friend and some other buddies (its doing well).
+Frequent sex life with gf.
+GF graduated and shes making 45k starting. Hopefully will get 50-60 soon.
Now the problem.
- I have an entreprenural attitude, I honestly dont want to work for someone. But it bothers my gf because that means I will be broke for a little longer. (Despite making 33k from my ecommerce business, working part time, and other things I do)
-When we have sex we never use a condom, I am fine with getting her pregnant and getting married shes like one of my closest friends. But even though I get hard Its almost impossible for me to cum[even while I am flapping with her/but not when shes not there]. I am not sure if this is my fault.I really want to cum like she does. :/
-Her family is like poor, or comes from an uneducated background. They have like 15(literally) dogs and 5 cats. The dads a drunk, ,theres dog shit everywhere. Whereas my family is really clean and on the middle class-upper middle class spectrum. When shes with my family she lacks the edict and manners and the older family think something is off.
-Shes really defiant, If I want something from her she has to be in a good mood. If shes not Its all down hill.
Overall, I really like this girl I do, there are other girls out there that I know want the D, but I have been loyal to this not only cause Ive been with her for 5 years but we've been best friends for a long time.
>>16629682
So what are you looking for here? It sounds like you're trying to decide whether or not to stick with this girl.
If nothing else, stop fucking her bare.
Are you fucking stupid? Really doesn't sound like you're ok with getting her pregnant. You can lie to yourself, but you can't really lie to your dick. Unless you just have some performance hangup, not being able to cum with her should really be telling you something.
Some general thoughts... She is who she is. Things in her life are changing and that may cause a different side to her than you've seen to come out, but don't expect the fundamental stuff to change.
That includes selfishness and a refusal to compromise or even not act like an asshole if she's not "in a good mood". I may be reading more into that than is there, but it gets exhausting being the one who almost always has to give way.
And that's what it looks like you're heading toward with this idea of running your own business. Are you holding up your end with supporting yourself, and would you be doing so as a joined couple? As long as that's not some bare-minimum-effort shit and you're trying to build toward something, it's not her call. If she's impatient to get more stuff, she can earn it herself instead of expecting you to supply it.
That obviously changes if you have a kid. Children are expensive, and you're going to need to get your shit together fast if you have one. Just another reason to use birth control.
>edict
Do you mean diction?
>woke up to a small wart on my dick
>had sex with 6 girls in december
>all one night stands
>wondering how to go from here
does duct tape really work better for removing warts than wart remover that retail stores sell?
I was posting on here last month about my visits to the clinic and getting tested.
I was on a break with my girl, and fucked a couple of other girls. Then, when I got back with my girl a week or two later, I had a breakout rash on my penis.
It got pretty bad, and cleared up, and never fully healed, and then came back again. So, I went to the clinic, got tested after 5-6 months, and they said it was all clear, no issues.
Just a few days after that news, it actually cleared up. I think it was all in my head, and I made it worse. PS stop dry masturbating.
But, seriously go get tested for ease of mind. Longest two weeks of my life for those results. Thank god for negative.
>tfw pure virgin with disease free dong
Bite the bullet and get it checked by a doctor. They'll do a full STI screening for you too. Alot of STI's are asymptomatic so you might not even know you have it until it progresses and makes you or someone you love later sterile. Alot of this shit can be cleared up quite with antibiotics.
Don't trust hood hoes, protect yourself bro.
>My bf and I, we're living separate now. He wants to marry me soon, maybe in a year or two.
>He is talented and hardworking. He is in the arts. He loves what he does. He has a show coming up soon.
>But he has no job and he doesn't take commissions unless it's paying good. Which is very rare.
>I have a part time job. Sometimes I have to support him financially, which I don't mind but it crunches my savings.
>If he starts earning, his family will hound him for financial support. Right now he's sort of cut himself off. And if he gets a job, he'll have to stop doing what he loves and take up things that are more commercial. But if he doesn't earn anything, it gets hard on me, and I also have no way to convince my family that we'll be good. I mean, he's not of the same religion anyway so that's one huge hurdle to cross. But if I do convince them, then I need something for them to say yes. The only thing I can think of now is financial security. Is there any other argument? Or is there some compromise to convince him to earn? I'm caught up in a dilemma, cos even though I want him to find a job, I don't want him to give up his passion. I don't know how these two can come together.
>>16629593
I can just smell fake posts from a mile away, and I'm pretty sure there's still a bottle of vodka in my bloodstream right now.
>>16629594
why is it a fake post? who'd bother this much? it's too complex a situation for you? then don't answer and enjoy your vodka.
>>16629593
You have an odd grasp of the meaning of the word "hardworking".
Is it really odd that I enjoy sending Happy New Year messages to other Tumblr users?
if you know them, no
if they are total strangers, yes
but w/e, do what you want
>>16629558
I send these messages anonymously.
It's sad that you are associated with Feminazi hives like Tumblr.
Why do creatures with front holes not go for what they want in life? Why do you have to have an appendage to do so?
>>16629516
>creatures with front holes
...what?
if you are speaking of females and males, I would say it is because females are better equipped to plan for things and go about retrieving them in ass backwards ways whereas men are more likely to rush it head on with little to no planning
>>16629522
Hunters vs gatherers the remake.
I can't cum easily during sex, what do? I didn't even masturbate for a month either. Also when I got a handjob it didnt feel good, but it feels fine when I jerk it
>>16629425
Did you like the girl a lot?
Also how many times have you had sex?
>>16629434
I like her but she's a little bit chubby. She's not extremely pretty but she's cute.
I had sex a lot with my ex over a year and a half and I had the same problem. Couldn't cum in a reasonable timeframe.
>>16629443
That's some weird shit.
Maybe find hotter girls to fuck.
Other than that, tide comes in, tide goes out.
Can't explain that.
Hey, /adv/. For almost a year, I've been cleaning myself extra thoroughly when I shit. I will first wipe my ass normally, then do the following:
>take out 2 squares of tp, fold it 3 times
>wet it slightly, just 2 or 3 drops of water
>cover my middle finger with the paper
>insert it into my ass and clean in a circle
>take it out and inspect the paper
I will repeat this process as many times as it takes until the paper comes out completely clean. I've always just taken seconds to shit, so doing all of this doesn't add much extra time. However, for the last few weeks, I've found myself spending a good 15 or 20 minutes every time I take a shit. I will do everything normally, then when I'm close to getting clean, unexpectedly shit a bit more.
Has my digestion just worsened, or could this cleaning method be inducing me to drop extra shit, thus making it extremely time inefficient? It's not like I go in too deep, just one phalanx at most.
start taking fiber supplements
>>16629409
You should not be inserting digits into your ass. The sphincter reflex can be weakened by doing this and could cause incontinence or even a prolapse.
>>16629409
I'm in a routine where I take a shit in the mornings before I take a shower.
If I do happen to shit during the day, I wipe normally and finish off with baby wipes.
I've prolly converted 6 people to the baby wipe technique.
They all thought it was funny until they tried it themselves and see how much "dirt" is left after normal wiping.
Don't insert stuff in your ass, also get some fiber and maybe try and work out a bit, jogging can help with bowel movements.
Goodluck!
Can swinging change lives?
I've had fantasies for a while about swinging and I know my girlfriend would be down for it. We regularly cam as a couple and it's a lot of fun for us.
I was wondering, there are people on this planet who cannot fulfill the basic need of sex in their lives, I've had to opportunity to do it so much so that it has deviated to another level. I enjoy the control of being able to throw sex around with my woman if I wanted to, have you had any experiences with a couple that changed you? It feels nice knowing you can be unforgettable in a person's life, especially being associated with pleasure and submissiveness.
Thoughts?
It's going to be pretty funny having you come back here crying when you fuck up your relationship
>>16629357
Can't wait for you to change your tune after your girl bones a 10 inch black bull and losses all interest in you sexually
>>16629357
relationships will end either way. if she wants to leave you because she wants to sleep with other people and not you, that will happen regardless of if you sleep with other people or not.
so if you both want to swing, go for it. yes, swingers have a really high rate of breaking up, but so do monogamous couples. so just do what makes the two of you happy.
keep in mind you dont have to 'swing' per se, you can just do group sex. if im not mistaken swinging involves switching partners.
the thought of a couple both being submissive is kinda hot.
Help /adv/ i dont know what the fucks wrong with me.
Im basically a miserable fuck all the time and i hate it, i could win a mil tomorrow and id still be a spiteful, hatefucked angery cunt.
I feel like i just cant be happy and i cant seek help i just dont know how to deal with this shit.
Last week i got really drunk and i tried to stab my friend just to get him to fight me, he didnt do anything wrong i just wanted him to fucking hit me get the adrenaline flowing to clear my mind, he wouldnt do it and eventually i passed out after having a breakdown in front of the girl i like. She kept telling me im not a bad person and that everyone deserves a friend to listen to them but i feel so pathetic spilling my guts out to them.
I feel like i dont know how to act around people im just a violent self loathing sorry fuck, i got my leg broken in a fight 8 months ago and i was still getting in shit before i could walk, i smashed some cunts teeth in for calling me '' a fucking idiot' he didn't deserve it but fuck i would have killed him if i could i get so angry.
I feel like everyones soft these days they dont understand but neither do i i feel addicted to pain and violence. I feel sad then i hate my self for being a sorry motherfucker and i just get so angry and i want to die but suicide is for fucking quitters and pussies anyway, so i just drink and smoke and hope one day some will kill me instead.
you're a fucking idiot
>>16629369
>you're a fucking idiot
>>16629330
Sounds like you are self-destructing like I did when I was about 15. I just stopped myself from acting like an asshole when I was drinking (It's not that hard). Also just find something that you enjoy at school or work and focus yourself more.
