Hey, I'm ____. How are you?
>>16596809
Hey, my name is ____ and I would like to get to know you.
Hey there's this *event/place* and I wondered would you like to go with me?
Walk up to them, say something about their outfit, shoes, eyes, hair, whatever man, It has to be funny, you need to come across as funny and brave. You can only pull this off if you have enough confidence in yourself.
Just walk up to them and talk about whatever you feel like, that makes sence to the girl, I would suggest you look in your surroundings for something interesting. Like a nice looking tree, and start talking about nature, or I dunno dogs, and how you like animales. and move on from there, that way you'll find out what her interests are.
am i a bad person? i've done bad things maybe. i think maybe i should kill myself?
With such an insightful and full of information post as for us to make judgement, I'm going to say you're just dumb.
>>16595528
i'm actually smart. maybe not as smart as you or others but yeah. i feel badly and when this happens it's hard to explain how i feel or why i feel. i kind of want to cut myself more just to express myself.
okay. i can try to explain. life is lonely and there's no way out as far as
blah okay.
it's hard even looking in the mirror and i feel like less of a person compared to everyone else. looking people in the eye is hard because i'm so very self-conscious. i have to go to work and school and interact with people just to survive, but it's starting to bother me. because i'm not a normal person and everyone knows it and i feel ugly and probably am.
>>16595510
Why not make amends for the things you've done to the best of your ability? Your guilt will not affect you and you'll be able to rightfully consider yourself a decent person if you do.

Would you kill yourself if you were me? I have no friends, I have bipolar disorder, I'm 6 feet tall, maybe a 6/10 looks, I've raped two people and gotten away with it both were my same age at the time, I'm somewhat smart, I make 130k a year.

Maybe not
>>16598966
No, I'd turn my life around and start living in the way I know I should.
Suicide is for those with no other way to maintain or mend their honor, dignity, self-respect, ala Cato the younger. You still have avenues to travel
What's the highest amount of benadryl you can take to sleep without seeing shadow people and having muscle spasms? Serious answers please I just want to fucking sleep
>>16598887
i wouldn't do more than 3. and I would honestly start with 2 and wait an hour
>>16598900
Took 3 over an hour ago still wide awake
>>16598887
Hallucinations probably start upwards of 600-700mg (never tried it). Highest I've gone is 400mg, couldn't sleep but felt very restless and uncomfortable.
In my experience the restless inbetween state starts between 250-400 depending on your tolerance, so while you won't hallucinate on it, you'll also not be able to sleep. It might also depend on your tolerance though. If you use everyday, by day 3 you won't feel much even on 250.
If you're having problems falling asleep and already took some though, try watching an asmr video. Makes asmr more potent which may put you to sleep easier.
>spend 3-4 years trying to be a better artist
>still no where satisfied with my work
>hate showing it to anyone
>want to put a gun to my head right now
Normally i would of quit this, but theres something making to keep going. Like, this is really important to me, more important than being rich, getting married, having kids ect. . is this stupid, is there anyway i can rid of this feeling, otherwise i feel like im going to keep sinking into this hole of self depression.
Pic related is a drawing of mine.
You shouldn't be satisfied, and you shouldn't be showing this. It's not great, honest, but you already know that. Check out some anatomy textbooks from the library and keep on trucking. Visit /ic/ if you want, or /d/ if you're doing porn. Also seriously consider buying a drawing tablet to pursue your work more effectively.
>>16598586
i have a digital tablet and digital software, and honestly this is probably more serious than most things in my life. However, i could never get used to using digital tablet,s with lines and all.
But uh, what would you rate the image out of?
>>16598591
>>16598591
You know bro, my fetishes are very specific, but this isn't a good example of your work. It's very "sketchy" (obviously). Do you have anything more complete?
Also, get accustomed to digital work, please, for your own sake. It's very important, because it almost always will outclass line drawings like this. Also try and find a way to learn digital coloring if you don't already know how (not sure how you'd get educated in that kind of thing outside a classroom setting).
>tfw just found out the girl I've been dating cheated in her first relationship
Now what? I can tell she's really into me. We've been dating for a couple months.
She said that "This was in her first relationship. She didn't even think about cheating during the second relationship, and now that she knows what it feels like to be cheated on, she doesn't think she'd put someone through it."
Regardless, I still feel like calling it quits. I've already been cheated on before and don't wanna go through that shit again. I always thought I'd be understanding about this kinda thing but now I don't know.
>>16598549
How old was she when she cheated vs her age now? I'm not condoning it bit a 15yr old is not going to have the same respect for a relationship as maybe a 24yr old. Just a little perspective
>>16598549
Nope nope nope. It's only been a few months, so it won't be that hard to Break it off. You can easily find someone who has never cheated.
>>16598549
She wants you to prep her bull
I want to donate some money to a charity but I don't know which one's the best to support.
Causes that I'm interested in include refugees, animals, homeless / abused kids, and global poverty.
Anyone well informed care to help out?

You should donate to the Clinton Foundation

>lovely girlfriend, loving family
But, I need some advice here. I feel like i'm not the best at anything. I don't mean to be like the top of the whole world, but i wanna feel like i'm good al something. I don't specially feel like i'm getting advance in my life. How do i get to be a better person? How do i get better at life/college/social life?
I don't know, i just feel like i'm basically empty and full of nothing. And i only wait the time to pass with no satisfaction.
advice?

Get a hobby, have a kid, or do what you're doing now, but even better. Also read books: They'll really expand your world more than TV or other media.

Why.
>>16598382
That's what happens you date teens
>>call 3 times a day
>>she doesn't have anything to say
>>I don't have anything to say
>>hold phone in silence for 5 mins
>>upset when I say "I'm going to hang up now"
Holy shit. I'm in college and my gf does this. Why the fuck
>>16598485
They're lonely as fuck and desperate for someone else's presence in their life. Even being on the phone in silence is comforting for some.
Myself included. I used to sit in silence on the phone with my ex a lot back when I was in high school because I was a lonely, needy faggot.
I still am, but I was then, too.
OP, does your GF have much of a social life outside of you?
how does one 'get over' mental illness? i'm fucking sick of alienating people
therapy and/or meds
Do you want an honest answer?

>>16598268
well my 'best friend' just left with ~2000$ worth of free stuff
tl;dr: Bf doesn't like the way I fuck but won't give me details as to why. He also wants to have sex more but knowing he doesn't like how I fuck makes me REALLY anxious to do it.
>Bf and i get drunk together the day before he's going away for the holidays
>next day I wake up super nauseous, combination of period and hangover
>he asks me to give him a BJ since he's leaving soon and we won't be able to do anything for a while
>I say no because I feel sick
>He goes into the bedroom to do his thing
>A few minutes later I go vomit
>He hears me and after asking if I"m okay, says "Jeez, first you wouldn't go down on me, and then your vomit noises almost made me not be able to cum"
>My feelings are kind of hurt but I just brush it off as him trying to be funny/getting out a little frustration
However, it gets worse. As we're showering together, he asks me why we never have sex anymore. He's right, we don't do it that frequently. He asks me why I never initiate it. This is where it gets complicated.
((CONTINUED...)))
A big reason why I don't come on to him is because for about 2 months every time I asked him if he wanted to do anything, he turned me down, and he refused to talk about why he never wanted to have sex anymore. However, I knew if I told him that, he'd say "You're just trying to blame this on me", so I had to pick reasons that had nothing to do with him. I told him that having sex made me self-conscience about my body, to which he just said "Okay" as in "Yeah right, whatever". We stopped talking about it for a while. Then around the same time we both brought up different sides of the same issue.
ME: Well, there's also the issue that I kind of have performance anxiety, I worry that you're not satisfied with me sexually..
HIM: Oh, and when we DO have sex, you're...really awkward sometimes
I tell him that now it feels like my worst fears have been confirmed and ask him what to do to be less awkward.
HIM: I don't know, I feel like that's just something everyone has to learn on their own.
I have no idea what to do with that. The only tangible advice he gave me was "You just lie there when we're fucking"
but that's not true at all. I'm on top half the time and when he's on top I'm doing the same kind of shit he does when I'm on top...scratching his back, kissing his neck, etc.
It's like he has no actual concrete advice/criticism to give me besides that he's not happy. And now knowing that he's not happy makes me want to have sex even less....
Why do girls do this
All these fucking words
I'm not reading this
>sex before marriage
He's a punk.
Need an opinion on pic related.
>be spic mexican
>be guy not girl
>have brown eye
There's this laser eye surgery clinic that can turn dark Brown eyes into light Blue eyes. The main surgeon working there is dating my sister and he told me he'll hook me up with a 60% discount if i ever wanted the surgery (which is originally $5k but i'd pay $2k). He got my sister the surgery for free and they look legit. She swears her sight is normal and besides her eyes being irritated for a few day there were no side effects.
I'm not a richfag but i have a steady job, my cheap apartment's paid for the next 3 months and i have around $9k that i can fuck around with. I kinda wanted to take the offer while i have the chance (just incase the relationship goes sour) and change my eye color Blue so i can be special snow flake but idk if i'll look retarded being a brown spic with blue eyes because the surgery is permanent / irreversible. My sister's eyes pop and she looks hot but im a bit worried it that wont be the case with me, also if someone ask id feel a little faggy saying i got laser surgery so i'd probably lie and say its "genetic luck."
Should i do it? I wanna do it but i really want to hear someone elses thoughts on it.
>>16598003
If anyone ever finds out your reputation is ruined, at least if you are a beaner you could be proud of it
Light brown quadroon here. This is interesting.
My initial thought is get cheap blue contacts and try that out for a while. It would give you an idea.
>>16598034
personally I'd be surprised if anybody gave a fuck how he got his eye colour. but then personally I would not get eye surgery that was not medically necessary.
How do I stop being a loser? Should I just seriously kill myself?
I'm 27 year old overweight loser living with his parents. I dropped out of university this year after faking for years that I'm majoring in engineering successfully. Meanwhile I got a part-time job that paid for my expenses and some rent/utility money for my parents. However, due to the low pay and high expenses I could not save up anything. In fact, I owe my parents 2000€ and my father has started demanding it back as he urgently needs it.
Recently, I had to quit my part-time job (web developer), because the company moved away and I couldn't afford to relocate. Last week I had an interview for a dream position and I completely botched it. They didn't tell me whether they will hire me or not but it is VERY unlikely.
On top of it all, I managed to make a girl in a neighbouring country fall for me online and we started having a long-distance relationship. She keeps asking when I will visit her. I don't want to lose her as I really like her but I'm not the guy she thinks I am.
I will receive my last pay at the end of the month and will receive no more than 600€. 100 of which will go into clearing my deficit on my bank account.
I'm at a loss, I don't know what I do. Last night I went out and just walked around for hours until I ended up falling asleep on a bench crying.
>>16597993
it'll all be good. probably best to start working full time for now and know what you wanna do with school/work. is it okay living at home or does it suck? if it does probably should move out and live pay check to pay check working some shit job
>>16597993
>but I'm not the guy she thinks I am.
As in you're catfishing her? Wow bro. Get your shit together.
I got angry and started smashing shit one day. I decided that I didn't care whether or not I was a loser - what mattered was whether or not I felt like one. So I stopped judging myself and I stumbled and flopped along until I gained momentum and improved. I'm still an idiot but I'm an adaptable idiot and I haven't been depressed for years.
