hey /advice/,
So in my undergraduate career I was in a toxic relationship and I was persuaded to NOT study abroad in London for a whole year, in order to "save the relationshit". I was about 22 at the time, and I am now 25 years old, in an expensive graduate school. I have since broken up with the douchebag, but now I am stuck with a life that I don't like.
Is there any way I can go study abroad, or do something abroad for about 6 months to a year to experience a new culture? This is the biggest regret of my life, and when I hear other folks talking about their studying abroad experiences, or moving to America from Europe, or any sorts of long term travels, I get angry that I didn't take the opportunity.
I really regret my choice. Can I take a leave of absence from graduate school, and go to Europe for that year?...I just feel like I am making the wrong choices, and I want to be able to do what I want to do.
I am already 25 years old, and am not getting any younger. I don't want to make decisions too late in my life, and lead a life that I utterly hate.
I am in pharmacy school currently, but I am not completely happy. I would like to do peace corps after I graduate pharmacy school and volunteer abroad for a few years and get off the grid for a bit. I have always loved languages, and loved learning about other cultures in undergrad, but I never got to pursue this path.
How do I do this?... I want to lead a better life people. I am stick, but we all know that we are not trees; we are allowed to move about as we please.

If you can get the money, do it? Why is this a question

I have 1.5 years to get laid (wanna lose vcard before 20).
I don't want to pay for it. Tried tinder/okc for 6 months and never got anywhere. I don't care if she's ugly or fat, as long as she's not obese. I don't drive and live with parents. Main reason I'm a virgin is because I'm ugly, but I'm over that now and I'm pretty confident.
How do I do it?
Where do you live?

I would learn to drive, and get an apartment. It's not like you live in Manhattan....
the other night I went to a buddy's house and brought my laptop. I was on the tumblr of a QT who's friends with a girl I knew in high school and am wanting to get to know IRL and when I went to use the bathroom, my buddy asked her an anon question and I didn't know what it was until she replied sometime later.
I was irritated he did that and after I left and saw she posted a askbox game where it was "ask me anonymous question to make me blush" and I thought "girls like romantic stuff, lets suggest treating her right on a romantic date." Then later I saw what he asked her and it was some creepy shit about her being a naughty little gal for having a bunch of stuff tagged NSFW, and when I saw my ask right after that I became disgusted and afraid of her feelings, she doesn't deserve some gross creep following her so after breaking my friendship with that buddy I sent her some not-creepy asks but since my last one was about the name of her dog that she took a selfie with I think she thought that was creepy and blocked my IP which somehow blocked my own account from following her. And I guess she told the girl I know from HS too and now my account is blocked by her too.
Should I try and tell both these girls the situation IRL and apologize for my ex-buddy's shithead post and my attempts to give her less creepy posts to balance it out and make her feel better that backfired thanks to my Autism (actual autism) making me not realize that I was making the situation worse? Or should I just move on?
>inb4 complaining about tumblr
They aren't the shitty SJW types you get deep inside tumblr. Plus I only care about tumblr insofar as a way to connect to them OUTSIDE of tumblr. I know tumblr fucking sucks. I'm only using as a mode of initial connection.
>>17194052
You already posted this thread and it was concluded that you're hopeless autistic.
>>17194068
So what? Even if I don't get a qt gf or something, should I still apologize about that?
Just move on, you're fucked. The girls won't believe you because too many people try to pull "Oh that was my friend, not me haha" excuse when they spaghetti. Stop over analyzing shit like this, I used to do it to and it just ends up making you do even cringier shit.
Have any of you ever ordered from www.healthmartpharma.com? I want to get oxicontin in the UK.

Don't fuck with opiates, OP.
They fucking ruin you
Get drunk like a civilized person
>>17194048
Its not like I'm addicted to them. I lived in the us for a couple years and used to do them now and again
Id like some more, it's been a while
I had this friend when I was a little younger that always was flaky and kinda treated me like shit. he had a habit of flipping out at all of his friends at some point than making up to them months later. What really made me stop talking to him was last year on my bday, he said he was going to hook me up with a girl that i thought was very attractive. Turns out he didn't even know the girl (i did) and was lying to fuck with me. This was because I got trashed and danced on a bon fire at his house. Theres alot of alcoholics in my area and this isn't uncommon whatsoever.
So I haven't chilled with him in the past year. He works where I do but a different shift, I see him sometimes when I'm coming in and he's leaving and say hi and i snapchat him sometimes but thats it.
So now his gf has been hitting me up to chill the past 3 or 4 weeks. I've heard that they are having relationship problems too. She's supposed to come over here tmrw.
Should I fuck this girl? I dont really like her that much and she's average looking, but she def wants it and it wouldn't be difficult.
Two wrongs don't make a right.
>>17194049
This sounds beta as fuck, I'm really leaning towards going for it, i haven't got any except for a hooker in 2 years, my work schedule is very hectic and I don't know that many girls that aren't disgusting fat pigs.
What makes you think she wants to fuck you?
I want to hook up with this girl, neither of us want a relationship as far as I know since we're both leaving for college soon, and judging be pic related she's responding positively to my smooth, suave witty flirting right? So where do I go from here? Ask to hang out and then go from there, just be blunt about it, or what? I dont mind if she says no, and at this point rejection doesnt matter since I'll never see her again. I just want to maximize my chances.
Sounds like you know what to do. Ask her to hang out, be blunt. Good luck buddy
"We should hang out sometime soon. What's your schedule like?"
>Girl says when she's free
"Want to chill on Monday night?"
>Girl says yes

okay so I have been a life long gamer and fan of anime literally started playing MechWarrior 2 and heavy gear when I was 5 and watching macros in 6th grade. now I'm 21 in a 4 year school finishing my 3 year and I'm 21 I have lost all interest in video games and anime.. I am highly disturbed by this, its like losing a huge chunk of who I was. I mean hell I'm finding it hard to even jerk to it... am I becoming a normie is there a way to reverse this
Let me tell you a bit about myself, about 3 years ago I finished uni, I wasn't able to play video games for about two years. Then I suddenly picked it right back up again. About a year after uni I wasn't able to sit through an anime season. Just now I finally started watching anime again.
Sometimes people go through phases.
Also, do you lack motivation to do anything? Might you be depressed? Could you just be really busy and tired?
>>17194002
not depressed working job feel happy just odd. I mean hell for most of my life I have been obsessed with this shit now I couldn't give a damn...
>>17194002
anyway thanks anon I think you are probably right. ill just try and wait it out and hope that I don't miss to many good animes and games
I broke up with my boyfriend because he said he didn't love me in that way, but considered me an important friend still and so he wanted to stay friends. I agreed.
But now I'm confused because basically nothing has changed. We used to mainly talk and hang out at his place and hug a lot and stuff. We still do all that. And even sex sometimes happens. We are both single for the moment. It's like we're still a couple, only without the label, and now I'm left wondering what was the point.
The point was that he could look for new pussy without limitation, but having you in the meantime dumping you in moment's notice as soon as he finds better. You can't do this without massive drama in a committed relationship and it's very convenient.
>>17193983
Oh shit, I guess I didn't realise that option. Pretty shitty of him, but makes sense.
>>17193987
At least he was upfront about it, you have to give him that, so you could prepare.
Dumping you for bs reason then seeing him kissing and cuddling someone else the next day feels much much worse when you realize he was building up the other relationship behind your back for months to have another ship to jump to when this one sinks.
Hey, i knew a girl months ago on my junior year at college. She knows i like her. I know she likes me, or she did, at least. We met a few times, and one of those (last) tried to kiss her, but rejected me ankwardly and said sorry.
Since then we havent talked face to face. I texted her and replied me like nothing happened but when we see each other from classes theres still this weird feeling...
I will try to met her again and be truly honest. But if she rejects me for second time, then i think im done with this shit. What would u guys do?
>>17193943
>What would u guys do?
I'd stop acting beta and move the fuck on. Why bother taking the rejection for a second time. I don't see what's changed from the first time she rejected you. Move on, get over it, find someone else she's not worth your time.
Go after women that slightly repulse you. Women that you are infatuated with are not attracted to you, and are probably repulsed by you. So get an ugly girl and start fucking her, and she will talk to her more beautiful gfs about how good you are, and then, and only then will you have a shot at prettier girls.
>>17193947
The way she rejected me first time was kind of this:
>anon and girl just to say bye after cool time.
>anon tries to approach her with a joke
>kissmepls.jpg
>she gets back while laughing ankwardly
>she says literally "I-im so-sorry sometimes im this stupid. Yes so stupid."
>she walks away suddenly with a sad red face
>anon still confused
I dont fap for those moments.

Should I meet up with this girl? She keeps texting me
>>17193884
Yes, stop being beta
>>17193884
Goddamnit. Thanks for giving us a context, you idiot. Do whatever the fuck you want. For all we know, this girl has teeth in her vag, but we don't because you turn to a Malaysian egg coloring forum whenever you're uncertain about the next breath you take.
>>17193884
She's beautiful.
Can you name a company after something it does't actually do? For example, if you wanted to start a photo agency and name it something like "Faggot Industries" instead of "Faggot Photography".
>>17193878
You can name a company anything you want - you can call a photography studio The Pretzel Factory if you want. The only thing you can't do is use a name that's already being used or one close enough that it might mislead customers. You can't call your computer company Apple or even Ample.
Generally speaking, though, the more a name tells the potential customer about what you actually do, the better
>>17193951
I see. I thought there would be issues with false advertising, but I'm actually naming mine the way I am because of another company having the same name.
Thanks.
>>17193976
you might get shit from customers or have a hard time if you call yourself 'the faggot moving company' when in reality you take photos.
but calling yourself 'the faggot company' or 'faggot industries' or 'faggots incorporated' or 'holy siht i love sucking dick i need more LLC' is fine.
How the fuck do I get my girlfriend to stop drinking to the point of getting smashed.
She is fantastic in all ways until she drinks . I've have told her won't stop her from drinking ,but its hard because she dose not know when to stop .
The problem is she starts going on about her past ,and how it effects how she is today. There is extreme yelling and it give me the shits .
I've told her I will be leaving if it doesn't stop .and have had my bags packed twice before .last time she started to hit me ,and strangled me .
The next morning she can't remember a thing.
I have all my stuff at her place and I think she will destroy them when I leave .
Wtf do I do .also I will be homeless if I just leave .
Any advice. And plaese don't tell me to grow some ,because its fucking hard
>>17193877
Sounds like you're dating my ex. Good luck, bro.
>>17193877
Some people just can't handle their alcohol. Those people should not drink.
By the sound of it, limiting her isn't an option because everyone knows one turns into two and it's all downhill from there. Make her stop. Just cut alcohol out of your relationship alltogether if that makes it easier. That sounds like a pretty fucked up situation and I'm sorry to hear.
>>17193877
Film her when she's disgusting drunk and show her the film when she's sober.
Please share any stories on abortion or making the decision with your significant other to keep the pregnancy. Our abortion is scheduled for 5/31 at 750a. I'm freaking out. Ambivalent about this.
>>17193857
my wife had an abortion. we had a one bedroom apartment and while we had plans for the future this just wasn't going to happen.
yes we were married, yes we were planning to have kids, but we weren't ready. she was still in school. i was just beginning my job. we were not in a position where we had any left over money at the end of the month and were already doing our best in terms of saving money, buying bulk etc.
so we got an abortion. it was well before the 'ITS ALIVE' time and to be honest i dont regret it. it will be an awkward conversation i have with my kids one day, but i do intend to ahve it, cuz i dont want them to feel ashamed of any decisions they might have to one day make regarding it.
i choose to think of it as no different then jerking off, or a woman's period.
>>17193857
If bringing a child into this world would make both of your lives significantly worse or if you would be bringing the child into a shitty situation, go through with the abortion and call it a lesson learned.
Don't fucking impregnate someone if you can't handle the consequences.
>>17193857
Don't feel bad about aborting, OP. I don't know your situation, but I'm pro-choice, so whatever your reasoning is to not keep the kid is your business. It will be stressful, you will feel a lot of emotions after it's done, but just hang in there.
Today was a pretty regular day. When he put up the schedule for next week, I was angry. My hours were being cut, again. I was well aware the decision came down from ownership, but he wasn't around so I took it to my manager. He didn't want to talk about and just tried to absolve himself of it.
I **lashed** out after that. I can admit that. I handled it poorly. I tend to do that. He handled it just as bad. If not worse. We argued for about 40 seconds, then he got in my face and was trying to intimidate me or provoke me into hitting him. I pushed him off me and told him I quit.
I called my boss and told him I quit and why. Manager continues to run his mouth for the next half hour. Threatens to smash my skull in, push my teeth in - generally just acting like a dope head going through withdrawals. I'm not scared of him. He could probably beat me up, but I'm no pussy bitch and can handle myself. He called me every name in the book. He wanted me to throw the first punch badly. I didn't see the point in fighting him over it. I have a son. I have a life to handle.
Owner comes back. Convinces me to come in tomorrow so we can hash everything out. Sends my manager home. Thing is...I'm not sure I can work for this guy anymore. It's not the first time we've argued. We both have some anger problems. We've always worked it out like adults, though. This just hit me like a ton of bricks. I didn't see it coming. I find myself nervous about going in there tomorrow. He says he won't work there if I do, but I imagine it's a bluff to make me not come in. I don't care if he works there or not. The guy is just insane. He's attacked an ex-employee once before and threatened him in a similar manner. I'm not confident he won't just jump me or some shit. I will defend myself. I just don't really know how to feel about the whole thing.
I don't know why I wrote this or even what advice I'm looking for. I guess just some outside, unbiased input would be nice.
>>17193853
If you play your cards right you might be able to make something of it. Raise, promotion to your managers position perhaps? If anything it would give you some time to look for another job.
>>17193853
Report his threats to the police.
>>17193881
I'm thinking he won't even come back. I know I can do his job. Short order cooking isn't fucking hard. Hardest thing he does is the food orders. Big deal. I know the owner wants me to be in a spot to move up, so really this all works out for me.
I'm just worried he's gonna attack me outside of work. Who knows. I'm probably over thinking it.
>>17193903
This is what I would be doing if I was actually quitting. I still may be. There still may be things to come from him in this altercation. He's fucking psychotic and addicted to opiates.
