Generally speaking what would make you consider a guy "whipped"? I've had a couple of people say it about/to my boyfriend, and I don't understand where it comes from.

They're bitter and trying to ruin other people's relationships.

I don't know man, I've got a friend who's 101% beta and has a terribly abusive GF. She's got the guy completely wrapped around her finger, every sane person would leave her after a month, but this guy has been with her for about 2 years now.
As for you OP, the things he generally does are:
>COMPLETELY bent to his girl's opinions
>can reject things he likes in an instant if his girl doesn't like it
>literaly...

Thank you.
>>16608896
Thanks for the list. We buy each other things but the girls I live with sometimes compliment me on something my boyfriend's bought me. I always say if it's from him so I suppose in that sense I'm more vocal about presents than he is. Maybe it's just stuff like that which gave off this impression.
How do you get to have casual sex with girls you know from the internet?
it seems like it's a huge thing and some people are constantly fucking new girls for one-nigh-stand etc
What are some tips to manage this? Or do I just need to be a huge chad? I don't even mind fucking a milf
bump guys

It happens for a very small but very vocal minority. It's in the interests of the hookup sites to perpetuate the idea that everyone is constantly getting laid.
Life is bogus. I am a person who was ugly and now I am as handsome as Ryan Gosling, seriously, I went from bad bone structure to really perfect like Gosling has. My life changed a ton all bceause my face changed, now I don't see why life is all that. When I was ugly all I wanted was to have what good looking people have, now I have it and I don't feel accomplished because I'm being given sincere love and affection (and sex) just because I look good... Life is bogus, just look good and you get everything, look bad and you get nothing... Life feels like limbo, there...

You seem like you just got this, just now dude it's like basic abc
So, here's the situation:
>be me
>my birthday
>have to work tomorrow, therefore didn't plan anything
>home alone
>gf will arrive soon

It's your birthday, you shouldn't have to do shit

Just the thought of having a gf makes me rock hard
if your parents were sensitive
then you acquired that trait, you were a sensitive kid
then, you grew up and developed skills and changed your personality from sensitive to not
then, you had a kid
what traits would that kid have?
sensitive or not?
"if a, then b" doesn't work that way. Almost every trait is a combination of nature and nurture and these are intertwined.
Esp. character traits are often the result of loads of genes. Then different people would react different to the expression of the same gene/the genes react different to the environment of another human.
Both of your options are possible, and with this little background (you barely cannot give me more unless you give me his genetic profile and his diary) it's impossible to tell

that's about it, i was just curious on the topic
Posted here a few times and everytime people just tell me to "man up" and try to kiss her or whatever, but oh well, here it goes:
I've gone to like 5 dates with an older girl than me (Im 20 she's 26). I think they all go pretty nicely talking and so on, but never more than that. In the last one, a few weeks ago, I tried to kiss her but she swiftly dodged it and acted like nothing happened. Since then, we chitchatted a bit awkwardly through text and never made plans to meet again, so thought it was pretty dead and I'd never see her again.
Then...

So am I just a nice friend to hang out or is it that this girl likes to go slow? I have no idea.
neither man she horny
>>16608804
gee it crossed my mind, as the last time we met for drinks it was right next to her home, but if she rejected my kiss I dont think she suddenly wants to fuck after weeks
Hello /adv/, I was wondering what am I supposed to do when someone is taking pictures of me in public or filming me. The neighbor girl, while I was practicing driving took creep shots of me and I caught it. Every time I looked in the mirror she was staring at me. I don't mind but why take pictures? Not the first time I've been creep shot.
If it's on public property they have a right. If they are violating the curtail of your home/private property, and/or in said place you have a reasonable expectation to privacy then it is illegal
I have a terrible hangover. Whenever I try to drink water I get sick. Anyone got advice?
>>16608736
Drink more alcohol.
not much to do at this point.
wait until you can keep water in, then rehydrate.
aspirin or similar for the head, ginger-tea for the stomach.
Soy milk and eggs. Cucumber or leafy greens.
I've lost a few pounds lately because of my medicine, i've noticed better that my right forearm is bigger than my left forearms, surely from fap reasons. It's really taking my self confidence and making me conscious.
TLDR How do I get smaller forearms?
I don't know about any exercises that would make them thinner, but I trired eating less and it sort of works.
pic related it's becoming kinda like me
There are no exercises that will make it thinner as spot reduction is a myth. If it's fat, you need to lose weight through diet and cardio. If it's muscle, you can either stop fapping so much and wait to lose muscle mass, or do some forearm exercises slanted towards your left arm to make them look more equal. Or just start lifting so everything looks balanced and in proportion.

>If it's muscle, you can either stop fapping so much and wait to lose muscle mass
How long does this usually take? I've decided on quitting fapping for a period of time yesterday.
>>16608732
>I've lost a few pounds lately because of my medicine, i've noticed better that my right forearm is bigger than my left forearms, surely from fap reasons.
Highly, highly unlikely. Gapping just isn't enough exercise to cause this.
Are you into fencing, or tennis, or some other sport that heavily favors one arm over the other? Those kinds of sports are far more likely to cause this imbalance than fapping is. Even if you are not currently into these, here's...

My friends gf keeps coming on to me and I want it to stop. I try to ignore most of the flirty garbage she does but lately ive been thinking about giving into it and that's no good.
I think she's crazy too so I'm really not interested in the blackmail shit she tried on my friend.
What
Do
>>16608657
Tell her to knock it off privately. Document the interaction.
If she doesn't cut the shit, tell your friend. Show him the conversation you two had so he knows you're not trying to break them up to get at his girl or some crazy shit.
Don't do it anon
You're better than that
>>16608657
Explain.
I am finally ready to start school because I have a rough idea of what I want to learn.
I want to be able to fully understand and utilize all principles involved in modern fireams, engines, electrical systems (note, not digital so much, more like the realm of capacitors, batteries, resonant transformer circuits; basically all electrical principles and applications pre-digital age), hydraulics, whatever one would need to know to make a submarine and the same goes for all manner of aircraft (especially lighter than air vessels).
What do I need to go to school for in college classes "terms" and what schools would be acceptable for my education?
I have a fair amount of money to pay for this, but I did earn it by bust my ass off.
I am not from the past.

Mechanical Engineering
I'd also get a minor in biology so you have the option to become a biomedical engineer down the road. It has good job prospects.

And this would cover the nautical, aeronautical, and electrical concerns?
Historically, religion has merely been an avenue for others to abuse me. I have nothing against religion, but fanaticism makes me extremely uncomfortable, to the point of crying even. But with matt, it doesn't seem to matter. I spent a good portion of Christmas with his family, and prior to eating we all held hands while his dad prayed. Normally this would make me extremely uncomfortable, but this time it didnt? I'm unsure whether time has merely dulled the pain inflicted on me through religion, or if I love him enough that holding his hand has such an effect. Either way, it was enough for me to, at the end of the day as I was leaving to my apartment, tell him that I love him. This confession was met with all the warmth and acceptance, but he said that he "needs a little longer to say the same". Yet I have never felt so comforted.
It's been on my mind for a while though how a relationship might work between a Catholic and an atheist. I don't want to damage his faith; it is an important part of him and I do not want to change him. But I wonder how I might go about understanding him as a Catholic. Do I just ask his priest? Would that be too invasive?
A relationship like this can work perfectly, just give him his space and let him believe what he wants to believe.
As for the abuse in your past, there are people who are very loving and kind and find religion as a support to be like that even in hard times. There are others who use religion to justify their atrocities and solidify their power over others. Try not to judge people solely on whether they are religious or not.
>>16608632
Just let that part of him go and look past it. If he cares about you, he'll look past the fact that you're an atheist and won't try to change that.
As for "damaging his faith", that doesn't happen accidentally. You have to purposely say stuff to fuck with him. Anything else that makes him doubt is due to him taking a step outside his faith to view things, or that he doesn't strongly believe in it to begin with. This can be good or bad depending on your perspective. Either...

The thing with religion is, if you're not too much of a fanatic about it then anyone can get along with anyone else. If you are flexible and he is flexible, you're good. Unfortunately, religion can be used as justification for all kinds of horrible shit done to other people. The truly frightening thing is, it can get good people to do terrible things, because they might legitimately think they are helping them in the long run by hurting them in the short term.
The important questions you need to consider...

The solution to any problems of board quality is always to drown the shitty threads and posts in quality threads and posts.
If you want an end to shitty posts, post quality responses, every time.
If you want an end to shitty threads, create quality threads, and only quality threads.
Be the change you want to see in the board.
Back at the end of July, me and my girlfriend of several years broke up. While I wouldn't call it a mutual thing, it was on good terms. We still called ourselves best friends. We had always promised eachother that regardless of whether our relationship stayed together or not. But there was a lot of tension for awhile. And then she just started drowning herself in work. And while we still talked/talk, it's not very often and just isn't the same as before.
Keep in mind that we were best friends long before we dated. I know she recently started dating someone...

Take time away from her. Let yourself get over the break up totally. Get used to being without her, and then start things over, slowly.
And, probably, if she is going out with someone else, her boyfriend will be jealous to see her hanging out with her ex (reasonably), so it might not happen anyway, at least not as it was before.
I am very close to my ex. He dumped me 3 years ago after being friends through all high school and dating for a year. We started hanging out a year ago or so. We rarely see each other because my boyfriend isn't really happy about me hanging...

Thanks anon.
She has repeatedly said that given the chance, she wouldn't have changed anything and would go through it all again. I feel the same to a degree. At the same time, I just can't help but feel like a failed relationship wasn't worth it if it means I'm going to lose my best friend over it.
