Tell me your experiences/emotions with your current job, if you like. I'd love to compare.
I work a simple factory job, have a few friends there but nothing extravagant. It's the closest that was hiring, so I gave it a shot. I'm trying to find the drive to continue it, but it's becoming increasingly depressing. I understand that life is hard and I need to buck up, but that doesn't negate how it makes me feel.
I've tried the whole "look for the good things in it" thing and I'm having a hard time even finding good things....

What's depressing about the factory job? Is it just that it's a poor guy's job?
I work customer service. I hate people, and have zero fucks to give about their bad experiences with us. Th pay's decent, but I throw most of my money on booze to numb my hatred for my job. I'd get another one, but he job market's shit.
OP: at least you don't deal with entitled cunts all day.
>>17304330
Yes, and the fact it's all I can get. I guess I want something that I'll actually enjoy but that's hard to grasp for anyone.
>>17304344
That does sound annoying, although, I generally enjoy talking to people. But I guess I've never had to deal with the people you have to deal with on a daily basis.
Is there any issue with asking a girl out earlier, like 5pm, on a Saturday?
Other guys seem to want to start their dates at like 8 o'clock at night and that just sounds late as fuck to me.
I plan on meeting this girl for a drink and then going to dinner if we hit it off.
Worrying about the important stuff huh? Just make sure u don't ask her preference on favors of wedding cake and your all good
>>17304210
But what if she likes a flavor I don't?
I've had successful dates at 1pm.
it all depends on what you're planning, and how well you're communicating before the date aka text gaming. And by 'successful, I mean we had a good time for hours and ended up fucking. This happened with two different women.
How can I interview people in the city viewing an artwork about the artwork without being rudely insulted and ignored? I'm taking a class on public art and I have to interview people visiting the piece. I learned the hard way not to start by saying I'm sorry to bother you because people are asshole if they don't know you.
What's your actual problem?
>>17304184
I want to know how to get answers to interview questions in a public setting from people who don't know you.
This can go two ways:
Either you don't know how to talk to people, and you need to learn how to, or
you don't know much about art, and need to figure out what interesting questions to ask.
Or both.
give me ideas for things to do with my free time /adv/ im lacking so much inspiration right now and i have so much free time i don't know what to do with
>>17304175
Learn a skill, clean up, develope or engineer something, get on touch with a lot of people, watch anime, make music, do things that remind you of good ol' times.
>>17304211
This.
Read, write, create (draw, produce music, etc.), listen to something new, exercise, learn, work more (cashula), go to social events, etc...
Go to a boot sale
Buy a cheap axe
Take it to get sharpened
Cut down a tree illegally in the wilderness somewhere and leave it for a year to season.
A year later, return.
Process the logs into timber planes using a cheap saw and a hand plane
Using online resources, design your very own wood furniture. You could make a coffee table that looks fucking beautiful, lasts a lifetime and you get the pleasure of looking at it every day and feeling the pride of hard work.
I have already chopped my logs, gonna go pick them up in autumn.
Sometimes when I'm talking with a girl I like I get an erection and some pre-cum leaks, how do I fix this?
Never talk to attractive girls again
Also, you need to be 18 to post here
>>17304161
im 20
>>17304164
Idk op, does it cause real problems?
Jerk off before talking to such girls then.
im 19. just finished my first year of college majoring in chemical engineering. over 4 months ago the girl i was falling for was drugged and raped. it killed me she told me that was why she couldnt be with me anymore. ever since then i have hated me life. i dont have nearly the amount of motivation i did before i met her and during the time we were together. i was only with her for 3 months but for some reason i cant get over that i can never have her again. about 2 months after she told me what happened, i found out she had a boyfriend. its been over 2 months since then, and...

She's had a boyfriend since? Then she either lied about the rape or seriously exagerrated. She's over you. Get over her and move on with your life.
You seriously want to kill yourself over a woman you were with for only 3 months? I've had hangovers that lasted longer.
I suspect that you were hoping to help her get over this, that you'd be the hero, she'd always be grateful to you for staying with her when others wouldn't have, blah blah romantic blah blah. Give your head a shake, seriously.
>>17304142
So after she was raped you "hate your life" now?
you do realize how ridiculous that sounds?
move on, you like a girl that had a boyfriend and was raped, honestly I believe there are better girls out there for you.
>>17304142
lol if she got a boyfriend and dumped you then she white lied the story
Is getting married a waste of time? I feel like you can love someone without putting it on a piece of paper.
Do people really marry "the one"? I feel like people settle cause all their friends are getting married and feeling left out or it's the "right thing to do"
GO!!!!
>>17304139
Legal marriage is morally worthless.
Only reason to do it is the tax benefits
>>17304139
Bump
>>17304139
Let's be honest, marriage is a trap for men
What are some safe ways to purchase weed online or in person?
>>17304135
Go to places where it's legal
By the way, what about seeds?

I need advice.
I am 21, and I suffer from having absolutely zero self control.
I am jobless - just sit on my ass every day watching youtube or browsing 4chan or porn. I don't have any friends, my dad cooks for me and lets me live in one of his bedrooms. I just can't think of anything to do. I'm fucking bored and extremely depressed. I can't think of anything I'd rather do than what I'm doing now, and yet I hate what I am.
How the FUCK do I get out of this?
Apply for jobs indiscriminately and take one.
It'll get you out of the house, force you to interact with people, get you money, and most importantly just make your world bigger than your neet hole.
>>17304127
Not gonna lie, your first job will probably be pretty shitty. Be emotionally prepared to put in some hard work before you get a cushy job. You gotta pay your dues.
Almost anyone can do construction work, but if you know computers you might get lucky and try for a personal assistant job or like a clerk or receptionist or something. Check out craigslist, got almost all my jobs on there. It's a numbers game so just keep at it, expect not to get hired from the first 100 places you apply to, eventually one...

Yeah, had a first job & it was actually ok. And yet I still hated it because I was dealing with people. People burn me the fuck out. I come home every day mentally fucked. I'm an autistic introvert, the worst kind you can be. People terrify me. They always will.
But you're right about a lot. I'm pretty good with technology. What have you personally tried, which was the best?
How does a NEET like me with only a part time job move out of my parents basement? I never went to college and I'm working in a part time retail store. I mother is a very codependent toxic person, she makes me pay 300$ in rent (only make $600 and I also pay my car insurence) and it makes me do back breaking work around the house. I'm pretty much her servant. I tried applying to a shitty community college but she immediately started to attack my intelligence, claiming in her own words "you can't handle college, it'll stress you out too much and then I'll...

>internet is the only thing that keeps you sane
Conjecture: The internet is actually perpetuating your depression and honesty, lazyness.
Nothing your mother does sounds toxic. Every adult pays rent, even when living with parents. And 300 is pretty cheap so she can ask for more servitude help too.
You just sound really fucking ungrateful. Why are you making an enemy of your own mother?
My advice is to focus on studies. School is literally the path to a better life. You know this.
Nobody fucking cares if you kill yourself. Nobody. Not a single soul. If you are going to do it then bloody well do it and stop pestering the rest of us like the child you are.

God, you are just a delight
How do i become more assertive and dominant? Thing is that i'm passive and non-confrontational guy. I back away from direct conflicts as i feel very guilty upon saying something mean even if that person deserves it.
you're doing it right
>>17304097
>How do i become more assertive and dominant?
Learn martial arts
Box regularly
>>17304413
Sounds like the wrong approach.
Is it possible for an anon to find the IP address of a poster on 4chan? I met this guy on an online dating site and I think he is psycho and I am scared that he will find my IP and hence my location. I have posted about him on /adv/ before.
>>17304086
Yes, thanks for making it easy to find you
I'm currently downloading pics from your PC
It's only a matter of time until I gain access to your camera
>find the IP address of a poster on 4chan
>on 4chan
>I met this guy on an online dating site
so whered you meet this guy again
Hey bois ,i recently turned 20, and I matched with a girl on tinder, shes fit af and convo is going very well but then she tells me she is 16.
Was a fun convo, we were both baked but now she´s gone to bed and shes asked me if I am not put off by the fact that shes 16 I should message her later.
Problem is: I was an anxietyfag until this september when I finished therapy so at this point I decided better keep my virginity. Who the fuck knows if that should change my decision or not.
I´m somewhat thirsty but I just wanna get laid before I go back to london...

Nope the fuck out of there or you'll be talking to Chris hansen
The age of consent in Japan is 14 op.
Think about that op.
If you find her sexually attractive why dodge? It would only make things worse in the future if you hold in your feelings now, just do it, there's literally no difference in looks between an 18 year old and a 16 yo.
>>17304095
Age of consent is 15 here
I have lived my whole life with my muslim family but I'm an ateist for 6 year. I'm 18 right now have no job have no education have nothing. My parents keep forcing me to do some pray and some gayshit islamic ritual. There is no other person who love me or care me. If i tell to my parent "I'm an ateist" they probably kill me or beat me up and kick me up. Second one is kinda comprehensible. But in that case i will have no one to talk, eat or do something. But you know islam is really hard to live to unbeliever and im sick of it. Every fucking day I pray...

get a job, make money and move out and never look back
>>17304026
well at least you're not brainwashed like near enough every muslim. but yeah, this wont last forever, once you start making money, you can move out and stop being involved.
>>17304026
Move to America.
There is a LOT of money to be made writing books and doing TV interviews educating people about the dangers of Islam. How it isn't peaceful at all.
Honestly, you could become an ex-Muslim celebrity just for speaking out.
Ok basically I have a fetish for eggs but my husband doesn't agree with it?!!!!! Should I leave him or should I introduce him to the wonders of anal with eggshells cuz idk
Uhhhhhhh anal with eggshells? Fuck, I can't think of anyone who wouldn't run for the hills at the first mention of this.
Either learn to live without this kink, or learn how to be alone, because A) that seems downright painful and dangerous, and B) I have never heard of anyone ever wanting this until now.
>>17303997
Str8 b8, aint gr8
obvious b8
anal with eggshells? what?
i will admit that i have heard of putting eggs in the pussy but that wasnt for a sex act more like just to see if it could hold in there without it cracking. weird day
