I'm 20 years old and still only have a whisker mustache on my lip. I'm the only man in my family line that hasn't grown a beard (yet). Is there anyway to make it grow faster?
>>16606678
Testosterone supplements.
>>16606678
Use a colored pencil. Fake it until you make it.
>>16606694
Don't do that
I haven't talked to my S/O in a few days, and not even for Christmas. We've been texting each other but I miss them a lot. They told me they were sick and antisocial and didn't want to talk but this is really worrying me a lot.
I've been meaning to give them a present but I wanted to do it through a Skype call too but they said we might not even talk today.
I feel so paranoid they don't like me anymore and they are just avoiding me.. Should I call them right now or give them space?
>>16606676
If they want to be alone leave them alone.

Maybe Christmas is just a hard time for them? I know it can be tough cause you want to make them feel better but some people just need their space I guess. On the bright side - at least they're texting you and not shutting you out completely.
My Mom might separate from my dad...
Last year my mom got into a car accident and she stopped working.
Countless appointments have been done, therapy, meds all of that, she filed a lawsuit - and she settled for 22k but lawyers fees happened and it was 1/3rd and she had to pay an extra 2k for the medical center or some shit.
That went to debt she had accumulated over time.
He always said that her earnings were a waste and she'd spend it on nonsense.
All the while he didin't buy us clothes and stuff etc.
My mother would buy...

Build wall
I just learned that my ex boyfriend was unfaithful to me at the time we were together, and now the somo good friends but do not know how to react? I must say something ? .
Por que no los dos? Eso si que es, esse.
so, 26.12.2014 I told someone that I love him for the first time... I still love him, unfortunately he doesn't love me back anymore. I know it is the most boring story of all time, so just say something funny or tell some kind of interesting story of your life, so everyone who has a disusting day today could smile. Merry christmas
I think this is more >>>/soc/ related
2 years ago I was living in a tent struggling though community college and totally depressed. I kept going because of the minimal support I got from a few people on this site. One guy in Norway even offered to help me move there if things got too bad for me. Well today is my birthday, 2 years after I thought all was lost. I got my degree and now I'm a salary employee at a high level IT security company in silicon valley. Thank you s so all goood people. Ask me anything.
Name three interests you have that have nothing to do with work.
>>16606569
I meant to say thank you to all good people*. :D
>>16606569
IT is like the beacon of hope for all the schmucks of our generation. Dramatically so. It's kind of funny.
I just stayed up the whole night.
Yet yesterday when I was around my guyfriend whom I've had oral sex with, I felt so safe and comfortable that though I wasn't tired, I could fall asleep really easily.
I want to ask him for just an innocent sleepover to get over my insomnia / reset my body-clock.
What's the best way to go about this?
"hey, can i sleep with you one night"
but seriously, sleeping one night at your friend's house won't solve you insomnia
Just tell him the truth.

No hymen, no diamond.
I've been wanting to move to a bigger town for quite a while now. I'm very unhappy with where I am and want to Pursue opportunities only afforded in bigger cities.
I'm working retail and getting a second job is out of the question thanks to insane swinging hours. I get paid decently for where I am working but I've realized that with my bills, debt, and wage that I may never be able to move comfortably. So, I'm setting a date on my calendar for when I'm up and moving. I'm the meantime I'm going to try and save as much as possible....

This isn't what you want to hear, but I have no idea how you are going to move to a big city without a career or a career plan. Some people at least move with realistic delusions - for example acting or finance/programming degrees for LA/NYC respectively.
I want to be a comedian. It's a career move. I figured the dillusion went without saying.

>only problem is that she's very sure of herself when she says that she never ever wants kids
I'm 21 and shes 19, I'm not saying I want kids any time soon, but I really can't see myself being a long term relationship with someone who doesn't eventually want kids 5, 10, or 15 years down the line....

Maybe she never has spent any time around kids that weren't little shits
I don't want kids either and I have no intention of changing my mind on that.
You are both still pretty young, there's a lot of personal growth and change yet to happen for both of you. Things change. Thinking this far into the future at this point is, well, pointless
If someone is adamant that they don't want kids it'd be pretty unfair to try convince them otherwise. She's young though, she might change her mind when maternal instincts kick in. Also, carrying babies and childbirth really sucks for women. You have to take time out from your career in order to ruin your body by carrying something around for 9 months that may or may not kill you.
What problem?
Hi. I am a 20-year-old heterosexual female. I have been getting my legs and bikini area waxed for about five years, but i just recently had my first two Brazilian waxes. Though i am certain that i am not attracted to women and was not feeling sexually aroused during these Brazilian waxes, i noticed that i was getting "wet" when the waxer dealt with my most intimate parts. I think that this happened because i'm just not used to being touched down there, so my body just couldn't help but react. I know there's nothing "wrong" with it. Still, I...

You're getting turned on by the subliminal thoughts of being touched in your vagina by a stranger. You secretly crave to be raped.
>>16606519
Those people have seen it all and more. That's probably one of the most normal and tame things. Also, women produce discharge for a huge multitude of reasons. One of them is even stress.
>>16606558
not true im a brazilian waxer and none of them have ever been wet. OP is a lesbian sorry
Hey guys, need to get some cash fast so I'm planning to sell my computer since I no longer need it. I need to know what you think I should sell it for
My computer specs are:
FX-4170 Gaming/home PC with Windows 10 (AMD FX-4170 Four Core Bulldozer 4.30GHz CPU, AMD Radeon 6670 2GB Graphics Card, 1TB Hard Drive, 8GB DDR3
G510S Keyboard
Roccat Kone XTD Mouse
Acer s236hl Monitor
>>16606502
>>>/g/
I have no idea what any of that shit is past the specs and outdated ram.
Basically, the summary is that no one wants your computer. Also,
>not SSD
Probably worth about 200 bucks. Maybe 100 if you pawn it.
>>16606502
Don't try pawn shops. They go by supply and demand, and with the demand wanting smartphones and tablets, they won't give you jack shit for it.
>never hear from little sister anymore

Hy guys femanon here, it's my last year in hs and I am not sure which college should I sign in?
Keep in mind, I am Europoor, so this might function little different than in the States. After 4 years of HS, you write a test where u take the subjects, tests include everything you learned in HS. Keep in mind I am interested in "STEM", so I wouldn't like to go to law, economy,...bad paying....
Now before I start, what is the position of women in "STEM"? inb4 feminist, like what is the ratio of guys&girls?
These are currently the top 2 universities:
1. Medicine (no need to explain)
2. FER- Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing- classic engineering. Lots of good students come here, usually the best ones in physics, math, computer science(coding,,,)
I won't pass on Medicine, but I might pass on FER. If I don't pass there I am fucked because I don't know here should i go then...
Some other choices: 1. Civil engineering(building stuff, my dad says there is no job market for this in EU).
2, RGN( Mining, geology and oil)- this seems interesting, but not sure about that? You know all these new eco energy stuff...
3. FESB- Electrical engineering, Mechanical engineering and Shipbuilding
4. TVZ- this is just a 3 years, coding, engineering but considered weaker version of FESB and FER. Very easy to get in.
5. Geodesy- don't know clue about this one
6. Traffic engineering- this one is also easy to get in.
I am really interested in FER and FESB, but if I don't get in I am fucked. What about others, what is the best choice after them? Lots of people who don't pass in Mechanical engineering on FESB switch to Shipbuilding.
Is shipbuilding a stable branch in EU & World? Do females work there at all, can they work there?
You need to talk to professional career counselors, not random NEETs on the internet who are probably more clueless than you are.
>>16606500
Well I have never heard someone going there, plus is it free?
Got a few good advices on this board so let's hope for this one aswell.
>>16606493
Hi Femanon,
Anon here... Bachelor from faculty of mech engg.
Masters in interdisciplinary computer science and mathematics from best German uni.
As far as I see, the answer is simple study what you wanna study. Career options, money will come to you.
If you want my opinion, 2 is the best option.
3 is also really option if you are interested.
In case you want 2 but can't get in, you can go for 4. Gain lots of practical experience and skill set and go for a masters in 2.
In...

It seems that a lot of the threads here are "I am a loser and sad, wut do."
The only way to cure loser is to form habits and do useful shit consistently. Short of inheriting a lot of money, etc.
What do you think are the top 5-10 habits for most losers to form to get their shit together and how long to solidify each habit?
For example, an answer would be something like:
1. Lift
2. Cut all sugar
3. Cut internet/games except for work/school.
4. Study for x hours a day.
Etc. What do you think the top problem areas are for people here?
I think the top problem area is "I'm a loser because depression/anxiety/obsession/paranoia/etc." You're right, the only way is to form habits and make progress. How do you expect people with severe psychological issues to do that? You're asking schizophrenics to stop listening to the voices. These fuckers need to stop the voices first.
Hide every thread where the OP talks about a specific mood or personality disorder. You'll see 75% of the board disappear and the remaining threads might actually be able to take advice.
>>16606496
Nah those faggots are just self diagnosing sadsacks who try to find any excuse for why their lives are so terrible, so they just find a mental disorder that sounds about right and say they have it.
>>16606496
I really think that a lot of the psychological problems are made up, and supported by irl psychologists because psychologists are glorified counselors who have nothing useful to offer. Even if they did, they couldn't exactly milk sessions for "Start studying instead of thinking you have ADHD faggot."
Then the whole idea of "Why am I depressed" is genuinely ridiculous considering most people posting here have very valid reasons to be upset with their lives, so being sad is EXPECTED,...

I want to start exercising seriously, and taking classes seems to be a good way to motivate myself to actually get the shit done. I have a few goals, which include eventually biking to work (once I buy a bike and get into shape for it) and doing some weight lifting. I have no idea what to when it comes to weight lifting and probably would need a class or personal trainer, and again I'd need to get into shape for biking around.
I'm going to pick one of these classes but not sure which. The weights class scares the fuck out of me because it will be more one on...

Is this in school or something? Definitely take the weight lifting class. This is from the guy who probably does the most cardio out of anyone who lifts at his gym.

>once I buy a bike and get into shape for it
joking? just fucking ride the bike omfg america.
here in germany "everyone" (read: lots of people) has a bike and rides it no problem. buy one NOW and start riding it.
>>16606483
Yeah these are college classes. I expect them to be full of hot 19 year olds, which is intimidating.
>>16606490
Well riding the bike is how I would get into shape for it. But I meant I needed to ride enough to where I felt confident I could ride the distance to work without issues. It's not too close, and the 15 minute car ride would be like an hour (?) on a bike.
