I have 5 hours aside from work and all of the weekend to do something, but I just don't.
I'm having trouble explaining. I don't know why I'm not doing anything. I just always follow the same thought process to
"Nope, not enough people, not enough places to do shit, & too many disapproving people in public.(cops, general security, & those faggot White Knights)"
I feel unproductive & I want to meet people in an area where I just moved to.
What does everyone else do with their free time?
Image not related. Just think its comically meaningless.
I just think of this thread as the idea behind 4chan, the main goal was always to get off the page, never return, and do shit.
Don't mind me, just tying my shoe.
How to be faster /adv/?
I always double-check everything and don't feel the flow of time. It gets frustrating when i try to cook.
Get pierced by a specially shaped arrow or befriend a vampire to the level of a bestie.
Either one will grant you an ability to manipulate time to your favor.

Slow and steady wins the day. Just be you. This is how you are
Pinpoint a specific time in your mind when you want to be done. This is all I can give you.

>Start again, it instantly comes back
>Stop, it goes away
What the fuck /adv/? Is it possible to have migraines from jerking off? Its like black out type pain, not regular headache pain. I was diagnosed with migraines as a kid, but they could never figure out what caused them, and only said that I had really "strange frontal lobe brain wave patterns".
do you have Arterial Hypertension?
>>17310596
You need to go to your doctor and talk about your blood pressure.
>>17310598
>>17310598
I've never been diagnosed with it, but my blood pressure is near perfect as of a week ago when I went to the DR.
help
For two days now my ringfinger and pinky are numb, it starts with a stinging under my shoulderblade going down my arm it becomes a tingling sensation and finally numb at the fingertips.
I tried sleeping on my back, getting exercise, stretching the fuck out of my back but it seemed to only make it worse :(
what do I do now? how do I sleep to make it better? I have to wait 12 days for my doctors appointment but it gets worse every day!
>>17310581
Go to the emergency room I guess, sounds like something serious
Sounds like a pinched nerve. It's not life threatening just annoying as fuck. All you can do is do stretches for shoulders and arms.
>>17310581
you can try a chiropractor, but i will say the only time i ever had that exact issue was due to a chiropractor visit
Is there anyone here who's had success with this app? Im just looking for advice on what makes a good profile.
I had decent success for a while. Go to the reddit/r/tinder profile thread.
>be attractive
>have between 3 and 10 photos
>be attractive
>most or all photos should be of you in social settings with friends, not mirror selfies or shit like that.
>be attractive
>wear normal, casual clothing in most pictures. Have one or two photos with formal clothing in formal settings, but not all of them.
>be attractive
>if you want to show off your body put one or two photos at pool/beach, not flexing in the bathroom mirror or at gym.
>be attractive
Of course, most important (after being attractive) is to know how to talk to people.
>>17310659
My area must be shit because I'm barely getting matches. Or I'm ugly.
Is there some kind of a rulebook for social skills somewhere?
I'm 22 and no matter how many social situations I end up in, I've never figured out how to not offend people.
pls respond
I pissed off a friend today by ordering her food she didn't want and it made me realise just how fucking bad I am at doing people things.
>>17310597
I write it down if someone wants me to get them food
So they know exactly what they're getting to avoid stuff like that
>>17310539
i more or less never offend people. i think its just obvious. im socially retarded in other ways though.
I don't find myself attractive at all. More-so recently because I've put on weight due to a few stressful months. I fear it's going to fuck up my ability to perform in the bedroom when my LDR girlfriend arrives next week.
I don't want her to see how insecure I am about this but she'll pick up on it as soon as we get under the covers. I probably won't even enjoy the sex if I don't sort this fucking mentality out.
better start working out nigger
>>17310523
Your girlfriend is with you for a reason. When you love someone, you tend to love everything about them. You're probably very attractive in her eyes. More importantly, people will fixate on minute flaws that others likely won't notice at all. You are–and will always be–your worst critic.
>>17310523
>be lazy fat slob for months and completely content
>"oh no, my gf is going to see my pale, pudgy body soon. what do i do?"
this is an instance of (in)action-reaction friend. do things to better yourself for your own sake.
as for maintaining your composure during sex then keep these things in mind:
>try your best not to think about how fucking disgusting you must look, those extra pounds really did a number on that amorphous blob you call a body so it's imperative that you don't think about it too much
>try your best not to imagine and hypothesize what she's thinking when she sees you undress for the first time in months/years and how she may regret staying with you. you might imagine how she is regretting maintaining a long distance relationship to only be met with this disgusting lazy slob that she doesn't recognize anymore
>be certain not to question whether or not she is thinking of you or someone else during sex. everyone fantasizes and more so while in an LDR. trust that she's thinking of you and not Jason from HR that has a nice ass, dresses well, and is so charming
good luck friend.
I need help guys. I've researched my symptoms quite a few times but I can't find a confirmed answer. Here's what's wrong
>Be mid to late January
>Wake up with an awful stomach ache, nausea and a weird feeling like something is moving in my lower abdomen
>Have been worried about it
>Go to doctor for unrelated reasons, but too embarrassed to say something about this issue, also too embarrassed to tell mom
>Regret.jpg
>Fast forward to now
>All those symptoms, along with fatigue and sometimes lower back pain, and my stomach is distended
>Told my two closest friends and they think I'm pregnant
>Am virgin, still starting to think maybe I am somehow
Does anyone know what might be wrong with me? Some things I saw that say may be the issue are pseudocyesis (I kind of doubt), stress and other shit
>too embarrassed
Stop being stupid and get it checked out.
Nah, nothing's wrong. You're good.
>>17310513
I'll admit, I was being stupid, honestly should have said something earlier
>crazy girlfriend
>get 1 bedroom apartment with crazy girlfriend
>sign lease with her because im an idiot
>10 months later sign again because i am still an idiot
>can’t take it anymore break up with her
>8 months still on lease
>both our names are on the lease
Originally it was said that she would move back home and keep paying rent, but of course, she backed out of it.
She said she wanted me to pay half of the $4,000 termination fee so she could move back home, but fuck that I’m not paying 2 grand to be virtually homeless.
We can’t bitch out of it we’ve both talked to the landlord
The best idea in this scenario would be just to post up in the apartment and wait to see if she moves home right? I can’t afford to live anywhere else outside of the lease, and I don’t mind sleeping on the couch.
I don't think she'd break any of my shit or do anything too-too crazy, and I could always call the police if it escalates.
It's worth mentioning that I cannot move home, my parents live too far away.
brump
>>17310459
ask her if shes willing to move out by X date. then you just sublet it. you may have to convert the living room to a bedroom or do a roomshare.
you an also try to sublet the entire place and just get ur own studio. or you can ask the landlord to legally let someone replace your lease
I need some advice regarding my face.
I will post picture only if absolutely needed.
I won't post on /fa/ because they're cunts or /soc/ because it's not really for advice.
I'm fuckin ugly. My friend tells me otherwise, but I know I am ugly. There's no denying it. I'm not disfigured, but ugly still. I'm kind of a late bloomer and I want to get out there and meet women. I don't care about serious relationships right now, and looks might matter a bit more. I don't care if it sounds shallow, it's my objective right now.
I have a long, pale face. I can't grow a beard, only a slight mustache and goatee.
My nose is long and kind of skewed (and points kind of downward), as well as my jaw.
I have thick eyebrows and small eyes.
I wear glasses (although I might go for lenses).
I have a slight under bite. I have long hair which I usually put in a pony tail, I think long hair suits me better (but who really knows?)
I feel like a strong beard would alleviate all of these issues, but it's impossible. It will NOT grow.
Is there anything I can do to change aesthetically?
Anything at all. I'm trying to get a tan, note sure what that will do. I moisturize. I also feel like I should shave everyday instead of having a goatee. If only I could make my face wider...
Pic kind of related, even that shit can't make up its mind. The percentage should be way lower.
>>17310457
Just remember, there exist sexy girls that can look past a face, and nothing is more attractive than confidence. Fake it till you have some. If a girl laughs in your face, shake it off and talk to the next one. Like yourself and others will like you too.
Do your best and don't worry about what everyone else thinks man.
>>17310499
Confidence is a whole other matter (which is just as hard to correct for me), but I really need to rectify this issue with my face. It destroys what's left of my confidence.
>>17310457
post face
So I was horribly bullied by guys when I was younger for being chubby and it's caused me to have absolutely terrible self-esteem.
I'm fit now, people say that I have a pretty face and everyone in general seem to agree that I'm an attractive person but because if my lack of romantic experience I'm very shy around guys and things just aren't going well for me.
I guess it's kind of vicious circle. I'm too shy to have normal social interaction so the guys I happen to get close to are usually somehow strange. As in commitment issues, players etc.
I understand in my head that I am not worthless and hopelessly ugly and people have said that I'm intimidating but I still feel absolutely shit about myself. I can't tell if I really am intimidating or if I'm just not good enough.
I'm very lonely and I want to find someone but every time I have a bad experience I just feel like a sack of shit no one will ever love. I understand that it's most likely not something about my appearance that caused things to break down but a part of me is still telling me "it's because you're not pretty/skinny enough" and I feel like I don't even want to try anymore.
Does anyone have any advice or experience on how to deal with this? Should I just expose myself to more people until I get numb or something?
>>17310437
I have the same thing with girls and I generally just avoid them and don't care very much at this point, the effort doesn't seem to be worth the reward.
But yeah, if you're uncomfortable talking to guys then talking to guys more will make you better at it and will make it a more enjoyable/comfortable experience. It'll be awkward and cringy at first but that's normal. Besides, as a woman you can't even screw up that much. In women awkwardness is interpreted as "she doesn't like me", in men it's more like "he's autistic".
>>17310467
It's not so much about the talking that's hard for me. I'm just constantly fearing negative judgements or something.
>>17310497
I don't know if this'll make you feel better at all, but guys will primarily judge you by your looks. If you have that part covered as you say then you're fine.
If you have body image issues, as tons of girls have, just do what every other female does - post pictures on social media, dress sluttier to get more attention, these are all huge ego boosters. I could tell you to "just love yourself" but really that's bullshit.
You are all going to love this one.
All I ever wanted to do my whole life was be a cop.
Enlisted at 20yo because 21 in my state to be cop and I was broke. Also was told mil was fast track into law enforcement.
Fast forward thru training and schools.
12th month on tattooine and I didn't want to leave. Yeh I love my wife and wanted to see her but I hated the fucking stick farmers with passion and loved my 320 like my own flesh and blood.
I didn't want to leave and I let my sups know.
I get required therapy when I get back home. Therapy becomes needed with my wife she explains my sleep walking erratic behavior and constant recklessness.
So they ask me if I like fighting and I give them the hell yes thinking alright time for some Jason Bourne offer right?
Wrong. I get the booty shot and ambulance ride from mental health clinic to lockdown local hospital psych ward.
There for two months trying to escape the whole time.
Get back to unit labeled as an outcast and failure disgrace to company. Psych meds dumb me down and make me a zombie. My enlistment runs out and I get out with mental illness label and lots of disability money per month because they said they did it to me.
I have been out for years and tapered down from six meds to just one for mood. Using gi Bill marraige is good. I am screwed tho.
Because now I have no life purpose. Please help me guys. All I ever wanted was to be a cop and now I can't ever. I can't even buy a gun from an ffl because of the Brady law.
Please understand I'm not here to question the gun laws I actually agree with them, and I'm not questioning the mental health reqs for being a cop, I've learned in therapy that I'm not meant for it and I'm not bitter anymore.
I just don't know what to do, what do I do with my life, what can I possibly do that will ever fix this crushed life goal thinks for reading.
Maybe be a security guard? It's quite a step down from cop but it's somewhat regards and better than nothing
>>17310430
This. If you're serious about it try to sign on at some place that's fairly big/popular/makes a lot of money. Security in those places is no joke. It's a far cry from cop, but we get a lot of ex/retired cops and military through where I work and they all seem to enjoy it well enough.
use your gi bill to go to college
Want to ask girls if a man's weight is important. 500 lbs is it too big?
More cushion for the pushin' while I'm pegging him.
>>17310395
Yes
>>17310404
I like how /adv/ is filled with sadistic femanons.
Should I end it with my girlfriend of over 2 years because every person in my family dislikes her and her family?
A little background. I also can't ever see myself marrying into her family. They are kinda the worst. They are all overweight, and not because of health, they are just lazy and have a relationship with the people at the cookie cake place. My gf used to be fit but I feel she is falling into her families habits and it's unhealthy.
The decline with my families impression of them started when her mother told mine that they expected me to be a stay at home dad as I pretty much wouldn't amount to anything. Even though I'm in school getting my masters in Computer Science. My mothers friends have confronted her about their knowledge that my GF's parents are a mess and it seems they have a bad reputation. I also feel that I'm being controlled at times which other people have confronted me about..I don't want that reflecting on me, but I don't want to be so closed off or controlled... What should I do here....??
>>17310349
>I also can't ever see myself marrying into her family.
then leave her.
if you can't imagine yourself marrying her because her family is that bad, then you need to find someone else. that's my two cents.
also don't use pepes if you have a girlfriend, that's just fucking rude.
Pepe? What's that?
>>17310466
>also don't use pepes if you have a girlfriend
That's clearly The Grinch
I met this girl online and we started text. She told me she was 18. We get sexual and she asks for a dick pic and sends a ton of nudes. Later that night, she tells me she's 16 and I tell her to stop sending me nudes and sexual shit.
Now I get a text saying "this is her dad I'm.gonna report you to the police if you don't call me" but I've got a no calling plan.
How utterly fucked am I?
I called him (and charged my bill) and he's asking for money, saying his wife is a lawyer and that since I downloaded the nudes its still illegal, and that his daughtered OD'd on pills last night.
Is this a ruse? Fuck I'm scared
>>17310344
Make screenshots of that conversation if you still have it and just sit back and relax.
>>17310366
Relax it's probably a scam from the beginning
>>17310366
Besides, which parents would their 16 yo take pills and OD, they have nothing to fight for, they fucked up.
