So I've decided: I'm out.
I'm a burden on those around me and utterly pathetic.
What do I need to do in my last few days to make the transition easier for my family? How long does it take to write a will and have it go into effect? Any recommendations for the method? I was planning on using helium, but I'm not too sure.
Nothing will make the process easier on your family. Absolutely nothing. They will blame themselves, and will destroy your family from the inside out.

This, Anon. Even if you're an objectively shitty person for the rest of your life, it won't change anything. Just don't kill yourself.

My family has dealt with worse. I live far away from my real family anyway. I'm just leeching off of my bf's family. It's not the same.

Come on 4chan, this isn't like you. I've already made my decision. It's just that I've never done anything right in my life. I want to fuck up at least this as little as possible.
Memes aside, is it actually possible to pull off a fedora?
>>17205531
No, because even if it was possible to look good in one, the meme now makes it look stupid on anyone.
>>17205531
no, once you put on a fedora it merges with your head and can never be removed
>>17205531
only if you live in the 1920s
I'm failing one of my subjects hard (sitting at 30%) and I have an exam tomorrow. I haven't even looked at this subject in about a month or shown up to classes in the last two. Should I show up to the exam and get a fail, or can I just settle for the Unit Incomplete?
I don't think I can pull 70% out of my ass writing in a language I know nothing about.
I feel guilty about it somewhat but also it is probably too late to do anything about it.
I have been in this situation before. I was a 3.8gpa student in college. But when my depression and anxiety finally hit crippling and suicidal levels I didn't go to any classes. I do know though having pulled some grades back outta my ass and not been able to for others. I would say for you it depends how long till the class is over. Have you looked at what you would need to get on all the remaining work and exams and papers and everything to end up with a C in the class? If you do that and its like you will need a 99%—100%+ then sometimes you just have to cut your losses...

Take the exam, take the f, take it again next semester and pass.
This was a language course you said? With those you CAN NOT skip classes ever and you need to practice every single day. You really shouldn't be skipping class at all, think about how many thousands of dollars you pay (or more likely your parents pay) just for you to blow it off.
Same guy as the previous reply. Don't very yourself up for not going if you decide to do that or even if you decide to go. If there isn't a way for you to pass it even if you go and get good grades on the rest of the stuff. Then it's only fair for yourself and the professor for you not to go. You got this. Don't let this eat you up. Shit happens and everyone has a bad semester/s/class/time where the foul up their grades. Let's you ew focus and get your self lined up to crush it after!
I'm not looking for a FWB thing with anyone, that's not what this is about. A few years ago I was going to start one with a girl, but thought against it. But I'm curious
I've been told that women think about sex as much as men. Okay. Sounds good. I've met enough girls that it makes obvious sense. But I've met so many guys that are willing to have a FWB thing with a girl if she wanted to as well.
I know that most girls ARE NOT okay with the idea of that (Even if they're attracted to the guy) because of reasons of

Girls probably aren't as into the idea because of the "slut" social stigma.
As for what contributes to the mindset: I'm not particularly romantic (at least at this point in my life), so the FWB scenario appeals to me because it would mean I could relieve my sex drive with a woman instead of my hand. That's it, really.
>>17205539
That's the only other reason I could think of, that the "slut" stigma would deter them.
So do they get offended by "He wants me for sex and I'm bothered by that." or "He thinks I'm a slut so he thinks he has a chance of having sex with me?"

>do they
Everyone's different, desu. Both of your statements are true for some people, as well as those who don't care and are into having as much sex as they can.
I have been bitter and cynical for a while about relationships and also my job prospects and future career. This especially flares up when I experience rejection (in a competition and especially if I run in to someone who has rejected me romantically). It's not like I want to be bitter and have all these stressful and negative feelings but I can't help it. Even if I tell myself to calm down, shit happens, not everyones perfecft blah blah blah it doesn't change the way I feel. Recently it occurred to me that maybe I'm so bitter because when I'm not in...

You said it yourself, there are a billion other people out there and when shit goes right for you then yeah if you really peel away the layers you will see that luck plays into it much more than hard work and talent.
Do you think Mark Zuckerberg was a truly spectacular person? He was a mediocre PHP programmer in the right fucking place at the right fucking time meeting the right fucking people.
2 parts luck, 1 part hard work/talent
So embrace this fact and realize that you are average and...

Here is how it is for me. I am a white male born into a middle class family and all the advantages of being a white male. I received an inheritance that paid for my university education and a sizable portion for a down payment on a nice house. I guessed what I should do for a living and got lucky. I made some smart job hops and now am relatively successful.
I know people much smarter than me and objectively better people of myself that were far more deserving, but that isnt how life works....

If shes doing passive aggressive shit you should avoid her even if she is into you. That's a sign that she is the kind of type that would fuck a guy while drunk and then claim she was raped the next day. She is entitled and enjoys power games for control more than creating a connection for trust and enjoying people's company.

I'm incredibly dense socially and don't see any of this.

The fuck man
I need advice /b/ I'm, in a real pickle.
So I've always liked this one girl since middle school. Asked her out twice in middle school and once in freshman year of high school. All times I got rejected, but we are still good friends. We hang out n stuff. Recently she told me that she used to like me in either sophomore or senior year but never told me. Eventually she just didn't find me attractive yet again. At some point she DID find me attractive though. Now I'm wondering if I should go for her now, but that would mean I would end a 3 year relationship...

I'll tell you straight out, DONT. If you were in like a 3 month relationship, then sure, fuck it, go for it. But basically throwing away 3 years of your life for a bet, it's not worth it man.
Try to see if you can get her as a side chick, do that, see for a few months if it works, and them make a decision. My advice would be if you can get this girl on the side, keep her on the side for at least 6 months before making a decision, people change in a relationship.

>I need advice /b/
Why don't you ask them then.
Help me , I am falling into madness. Current study year is over. So I'm turning into a NEET. I am sitting at home almost all the time (besides the workouts I have 3 times a week) and only briefly speak to my friends(through PC) when they have time. I am very bored and have no ambition to do anything, I realised that university life was my whole life,and since I am living alone I can't even talk to my parents. Help me /adv/ ,or I will soon become mad.
>>17205475
same problems here. have you tried setting up shit to do with your friends?
>>17205487
They are all busy at the moment ,cuz some of them still have exams and some of them work
>>17205493
i suggest doing some productive shit for the time being until your friends have more time, and ocne they are free, plan shit to do with them. it will give you stuff to look foward to, and if you are being productive, you will feel as though your time is being well spent. im trying to plan things with my friends but they are difficult.
