I'm not attracted to any of the girls that I even have a mild chance of fucking or dating. It makes me super fucking depressed.
Is it supposed to be this way? Anyone here with a girlfriend you're actually attracted to and how does it feel?
Girlfriends are overrated.
>>17277135
Why aren't you attracted to them?
>>17277140
I don't like them physically
Their faces look gross to me.
Most times their bodies too.
Seeking advice and sharing a story.
Me and my 'fuck'buddy decided to fuck today for the first time, only problem is I couldn't get it up, and the brief few moments I did, it was gone in literally seconds. She's really cute and I find her attractive but I can't fuck her for some reason. I can get hard and nut when she sucks me, and I can make her climax, but my dick won't let me bone her. What's up with that? Could the fact we've developed feelings for each other be preventing me from going thru with it? On a related side note she gave me an incredible footjob today when I mentioned her pedi looked cute, so apparently the issue is not getting hard, or maybe it is? I don't get it.

Fear of getting her pregnant.

You've been reading too many redpill threads on r9k
>>17277105
Nah not even, I have no fear of that. I've tried with and without rubber, no difference.
>>17277112
Should I consider myself lucky I have no idea what that is?
I'm 18 years old. I started smoking cigarettes last year around september. I used to smoke marijuana from freshman year to senior year everyday twice a day. I also used to huff a lot. Maybe 5-6 times in a week. I am in my senior year second semester now and I've been clean for 4 months. I've stopped huffing as I know it's very bad for health. I also had a very bad drinking problem, also around freshman year to senior year. Now that I've stopped smoking weed and drinking alcohol alot, I started to smoke cigarettes and take pain killers to have fun here and there. I would really like to stop everything and become clean again. I work out and am in good shape. My facial skin has gotten oily, looks more reddish and 2x more wrinkley than before I started to smoke cigarettes. Will stopping change it and make me look okay again? Any advice to stop doing drugs in general? Thank you
Narcotics Anonymous meetings, go to them.
>>17277057
Yeah you need to stop you're too young. Your brain thinks it needs these drugs to get through the day. Seek professional help bro it's going to take a lot of self control
>>17277064
Thank you. Sadly, I can't really turn to professional help. My parents are very strict and don't know I abuse drugs. I know that this is just a time thing. I'm sure a lot of teenager go through this stage. My biggest concern is to stop smoking cigarettes. I feel like that's really messing me up. Thank god, after all the drugs I've done, I don't notice any changes in memory, concentration, etc. I only feel difference in perception, mood, emotions, psychological stuff like that. I just wake up everyday feeling numb hoping all of it will go away after a long time of being clean. I'm pretty active aswell, I don't sit at home and just do drugs. I am sustaining a 3.6 GPA in school as of right now and have all A's 1 F :(. I go out with friends a few times in a week but I feel numb. I just keep telling myself it'll go away after remaining clean. Anyways, thanks for reading all of this and helping bro.
Between having a partially crazy fiance and a fully crazy toddler I've been really strained mentally, and very distracted too. I'll be going back to college next year but I'm having am excessively difficult time figuring out what I can go for that wont consume my life with work but will also pay decent enough to love comfortably. Does anyone have any advice or recommendations on what career would fulfill these requirements?
>>17277028
become a carpenter, dude
or a firefighter
u get to do physical shit and people need u
doesnt pay great but definetely enough to raise a senpai.
Am le female, virtually a hobbit. I don't believe carpentry will suit my noodle arms even though I enjoy the practice.

>girlfriend and baby
You've forgone college, my friend.
Time to embrace the wagecuck meme.
So I'm selling some collectible items. Doesn't really matter what for the purposes of this post, but yeah. I didn't put a price on them, but rather "make me an offer". So I get an original offer for $10 for four of them. Sure, I was okay with it, but the guy wasn't really responding to my messages but I assumed he was busy or something. Well just a little bit ago, I received a second offer for $75 for the whole set (15). Now I'm not even sure what to do.
Should I:
- Tell the second interested buyer that four of the items are already "sold"?
- Screw the first IB and sell the whole set to the second guy?
What is the right thing to do in this particular situation? I feel as if I move forward with the second guy, I'll feel like a scumbag because I sort of already agreed to sell four of the items to him for $10. But I haven't heard back from him AND the second guy wants to give me $75 for the whole set!
>$10 vs. $75
Gee, that's a tough one...
You tell guy one that a better offer came in, and if he ask how much, tell him. This gives him a cance to counterbid.
>>17277026
>- Tell the second interested buyer that four of the items are already "sold"?
They're not sold because no transaction has taken place. Sell to second buyer.
Im a cinema student, i want to be a writter and film director, i trust in me because is really easy for me to create stories and now im learning the discipline that it requires, the thing is that just in the last month i have created at least 71 functional ideas for short, longs films and books and all my stories are (for me) fantastic ideas , im not a normie i read all the time from Murakami to Borges, i know a lot about cinema not just Kubrick and Kurosawa(im not trying to show off i just want to explain i know about this subjects)
Summing, it is normal for any newie to have brainstorms and ideas just that easy or is really something special? I dont consider myself special, at all, i believe im average besides any normal storyteller but i wanted to know
>>17277008
>at least 71 functional ideas
I bet you, at least three quarters of those ideas are unusable
90% of your ideas are crap. But you have a lot of them, so you'll be able to excel in that field.
I just had an idea. An animated stapler and an animated apple have an adventure to see the world. I'll sell it to Pixar.
Having an idea doesn't make it good, so bragging that you've created 71 "functional" ideas doesn't make you some kind of savant.
I am starting a YouTube channel. I am going to use game footage while I talk. I need some advice on what to use as the topic of discussion for my first video.
>>17276961
what are your passions in life? you need something to set yourself apart from the other 1,000,000 video creators trying to make it big.
talk about something you're passionate about, if there isn't anything then find something.

I love gaming, but I don't want to be another one of those.
I need advice, I have herpes and I didn't tell this girl I was fucking because the pussy was good and I wanted to hit. But now we're dating and I don't know what to tell her when her symptoms start to show. I'm thinking about lying and saying I didn't know I had it. Someone please help
-karma
Welp, you're an asshole.
>I'm thinking about lying and saying I didn't know I had it.
Why do you give a fuck what advice you get, we both know you're just going to do this anyway. If you were a remotely moral person you wouldn't be in this situation.
Obviously you should tell her and accept the consequences like a man, but that's not going to happen, is it?
>>17276958
A good amount of people exist who don't think/know they could possibly have herpes. It's ridiculously easily transmittable, and in many cases, doesn't show symptoms.
The stigma behind it is greater than the actual effect.
I ultimately think it's a good thing to disclose, but not saying anything is probably par for the course.
I acted like a fucking asshole to everyone up until about grade 10 and never got a lot of experience making friends or talking to girls. They never really payed attention/showed interest in me. This has had several negative repercussions on me socially and mentally and it just needs to stop. It's driving me absolutely fucking insane.
For one, it's left me absolutely terrified to approach new people, no matter how much I want to talk to me. It kind of feels like my legs and mind freeze up at the idea of it. I have major issues making friends. I have no fun at parties or bars. I just can't met new people. ("I do have a handful of really close friends and shit). I also have a really really hard time keeping/making conversation with people a lot of the time, I can just... never think of things to say.
I just.... can't with Women.They're attention towards me has always been generally negative because I was a little twat most of my life. So now that I'm a little less of a twat, I'm trying to meet women and it's impossible for me. A woman showing interest in me kinda rare for me, so it always feels like a big deal and I get attached way to quickly, I get clingy and I overthink everything, and I can seldom be interesting enough to keep their attention for very long. I'm a fucking mess around them.
On top of that, my motivation to do anything. I'm a programming student, currently on Summer Break. I have a job, but since my friends are always busy (they all work full time in a factory and have girlfriends and shit) I have a lot of time to myself. I could be spending my time practicing my programming for the next semester, talking up a new hobby or exercising, but lately somethings been just draining me of all my motivation.
You need a wingman...
(cont.)
I have this really weird anxiety about trying new foods and it's lead to me having and absolutely terrible diet. I've mustered my every ounce of being into overcoming this on many occasions but I can't.
Lately I've been feeling unfulfilled. The things that used to make me happy don't really entertain me as fuck anymore (maybe I'm just burnt out, idk). But I want something more, I just want to go out and live. I wanna get it excited for new things, not be terrified of them. I feel like I'm wasting my college years sitting around in my rut, but I'm too terrified to but myself out there to change it.
I feel unprepared for the world. I don't really feel like I have the life skills to survive out on my own. Idk, maybe I have naturally bad instincts, maybe I'm just a moron, who knows. (I really don't know how to explain this one, but I really wanted to bring it up).
There's just more and more I could keep saying. I'm a total fucking wreck. I really don't know what to do guys. I feel like I'm losing my mind.
>>17276950
Ok, first off my dude, that was who you were. You were young, brash, and socially immature. Conversation should be a tedious task. What are your interests? You should be mindful of where you are. If you're at a bookstore for example talk about books you'd like to read, or ask for suggestions on what to read. Ask questions to facilitate conversation. The girl issues will take a bit more time to figure out. You need time to build yourself up pal. Women can smell a lack of confidence on you. There's no need to be clingy. Don't undermine your worth. You should be thinking that it's their loss if they leave not yours. I hope this helps.
I have them. Haven't seen them, but I got three bites in a perfect row that itch. Discovered them at 3 am when they began to itch.
I don't have money for an exterminator. I dropped $100 on a mattress and box spring cover. My budget is basically $20.
Any advice?
> No bed bug pic because I don't even want to look at them
Use a non-pyrethrin insecticide. Usually these say not for indoor use, but that's for scaredy-pants granola eating pansies.
See, bedbugs have evolved resistance to pyrethrins.
But not to Carbaryl. I used something like this dust in the cracks along the walls of my apt in Brooklyn, and not only wiped out the bedbugs in my apt, I killed them in the whole building.
>>17276954
Is this for real?
Where do you buy it?
I have a cat, will this hurt him?
Im attracted little kids . I know it's bad but I'm getting help. Still,my sister wants me to come over for her 5 yr old daughter's birthday. I get really excited and think about being with her. I'm a little nervous cause here's no way really of getting out of this one. What should I do?
Fake a severe illness if you think you won't be able to control yourself.
No.
>>17276922
Well the worst that would happen ( probably) is groping
Am I the only one that gets annoyed by people who are just content to stay complacent, spend most of their time sitting in their house on Netflix, and Instagram pictures of their pets or whatever?
It seems like such a waste of life.
Is it worth trying to expose people to new things?
>caring about what other people do
You're worse than them, m8.
Why does it upset you that someone can be happy from something so simple...? Are you that sad inside?
>>17276917
as someone who doesn't feel like they can leave the house unless they have a reason
and reluctantly stays inside all day and feels like they are wasting their life
Yes
plz help
hey first time here /adv/,
so around january ago I got into CSGO skin gambling, it was just for fun at first using referral codes on various sites, roulette, coin flips and what not and getting small amounts of credits.
fast forward to now and I'm about 8 grand down the drain. worst part is that most of that money came from the money my dad entrusted me to keep safe while he was overseas making the bare minimum to provide for my sorry ass. I'm 18 and I was fully aware of what shit hole I was digging myself into but I couldn't help myself. each day was more money spent and feeling like shit at the end of the day when you lose it all and you feel obligated to win it all back and you feel you have to win at some point when that's just gamblers fallacy. As time goes on i don't remember the losses i had, i only remember the times i won and crave it.
Honestly I don't know what to do, he comes home in about 2-3 days and I have to either tell him to his face I spent all your money on fucking pixels in a game to gamble with or do something else drastic. I haven't told a soul about this, no other family knows and they will when my dad finds out.
even now I'm still thinking about gambling and the thrill you get from winning. I know those sites are predatory and full of shit and no matter what you'll lose in the end and I read somewhere that all addicted gamblers subconsciously know this and that they play to lose at that point. Is that true and is that me right now?
as time went on winning how do you get rid of an addiction without getting help from outsiders, is it even possible? I have no social life and nobody to talk to with problems like these so I might as well try here.
TL;dr no life kid who doesn't have his life on track gets into skin gambling and loses 8 grand and has to face the music in a couple days
> gambling
> online gambling
> online gambling via a video game
Holy fuck.
>8 grand for hats
Get a job. Pay him back. Accept whatever punishment he gives you.
Tell him you were gambling.
You're not addicted, stop making excuses. You have no idea what addicted means, stop making a victim out of yourself.
For fuck sake you don't need help, you need to grow up.
aw man, I think I fucked up guys
you know that old myth about how gum takes 7 years to digest?
apparently that's actually sorta true, or more accurately it doesn't digest at all and usually just passes on through.
here's my problem, yesterday I ate 2 packs of gum and my guts hurt, there is a weird intestinal pressure Ive never felt before, I think I might have a bowel obstruction.
wat do
Drink coffee and contract your core area starting at your chest and move downwards to your waist which will create a moving pressure. Then you will quickly learn what is wrong or it shall be rectified.
Are you still farting?
>If no farts over two hours, go to the emergency room.
>>17276889
>If no farts over two hours, go to the emergency room
is that really what's considered a healthy frequency? seems excessive
So in my daily life I want to cultivate in my work place a signature scent. A scent that is distinctly my own. Something not strong enough so that is the first thing people notice about me, more background noise. A coherent scent presentation for those who meet me. In this I have decided on a scent I believe is neutral leaning pleasant, and relatively masculine/feminine neutral. I have decided on citrus.
In this pursuit I plan to replace my current products with the following for my daily regiments:
>Citrus Shampoo/Body Wash/Conditioner
>Citrus Toothpaste
>Citrus Mouth Wash
>Citrus Floss
>Citrus Deodorant
>Citrus Scented Hair Gel
>Citrus Scented Shaving Gel
>Citrus Body Lotion
>Citrus Cologne
>Citrus Laundry Detergent
Using these together I plan on a diverse citrus line up so as to provide a generic scent. Between these the scents will mainly be Orange, Grapefruit, and Lemon.
At my desk I plan on getting rid of my old breath mints and instead going with a citrus one.
What I am asking are suggestions on brands, and on if I should do a scent profile overhaul every so often. I plan on going like this:
Citrus -> Spice -> Mint -> "Fresh" and do it by season.
Thoughts? Is this too autistic?
No, people actually pay perfumers to develop scents for them.
The only question is will it work as hoped?
