So I'm (hopefully) graduating this semester, but I've never had a job or even experience in my field (computer science). A lot of this was due to my being terrible socially and being too afraid to apply for internships in the chance that I was rejected (Yeah, I know terrible reasoning)
However, recently, I was offered an internship at the Baltimore Public schools region. This is really cool and it ties into what I want to do (specifically work in the government)...however it's in the Baltimore Inner Harbor and I...live an hour away. My parents also don't...

that's only two hours of driving a day, get yourself a cheap ass scooter or motorcycle with like 90 MPG and go for it. Or rent a place closer. or be homeless and live out of a gym nearby.

1.An hour's commute is fine. Hell, both my parents have one, and once I got a job so did I.
2.Practical experience is worth several times more to employers than academic achievements (just proving you could get them is probably enough).
3. You won't be dropped in the deep end and expected to know it all. You will be trained what to do and be able to ease into it. It's intimidating, but once you know what you're doing not all that hard.

Do it.
Why do women always seem to be crazy about me for the first few weeks and then treat me like shit afterwards?
>what could be a personality trait that causes this
>>17147834
Are you an agreeable person among people who can kinda be dicks?
>>17147834
it could be literally anything. we dont know anything other than the fact that your charm has an expiration date. but we dont know hwy.
I have a similar issue, but i have a charming period if 9 months. around then i start to become annoying. its probably because im very redundant, so while im funny and zany and whatnot at first, it gets old FAST.
for you, who knows. its probably not a single trait that is doing this, but rather who you are as a person. do casual friends do this as well? whats your daily life like?
Because women are always looking for someone better.
Fuck'em hard in those weeks, then dump them, before they cheat or because they suck another dick.

I'd wash it regularly.
I wouldn't use a blanket you really care about.
Even if you wash it regularly there will still be a difference. And also washing it a lot will wear down your favorite blankey so be careful
I just keep a washcloth near my bed and use that, its not a big deal to wash regularly and I don't really care if it gets a bit rougher from being constantly washed.
So my best girl friend of 4 years, just told me she is really into me and have been for a long time.
She is literally a 10/10 and I'm pretty average/good looking fella.
We hooked up a couple of times in the past, but nothing more than one nighters.. I guess..
Here's the problem though.
She is such a good friend of mine, who I can trust with anything and vise verse.
I'm afraid that if we get into a serious relationship, I will end up fucking it up - which could lead to us, not being friends at all anymore.
The other problem is, I don't...

If I was you I'd probably wait and see where it leads and not try to rush anything.
If you end up getting togther it's important to not worry about the end of the relationship, try to focus on the present part. If you break up there will always be negative feelings but depending on how it ends you could go back to being friends (in time).

Warning: a bit cynical person who doesn't believe muh love because never felt it.
So anon, you moved from best friend to best friend with benefits.

Seriously what more do you want from your potential all life partner? Butterflies feeling in your stomach? Everybody admits this phase usually stops after first year.

Hello /adv/,
I've resolved to move out soon and have been pouring through online apartment listings for the past few months. I had various generic questions that I hope you could help me with.
First off, what are additional methods to searching for an apartment? I'm not sure if online listings are the most reliable. I'd like to spread my reach to whatever is available.
Speaking of reliability, is there any way to find out how legit some of these online apartment reviews are? Frankly I'm terrified because just about everything in my...

Have you checked local newspapers, community center bulletin boards, or called any apartment buildings in your area for vacancies? Some real estate offices also have apartments listed for rent, but then you risk additional fees, so I would try calling places on my own before going that root. Hope that this is helpful! GL!
Dear op.
Unless you have a strong job and decent income, you're not going to afford living solo. You'll be renting a room somewhere. Given that, here are some rules of thumb to go by
Same sex
No pets
No drugs
Always ask for references
Always scope the joint out an hour beforehand
Always scope the neighborhood beforehand
Don't rent with people who have small kids or kids in general
Don't rent with someone who is also renting for the first time
Don't rent from a social introvert.
Use craigslist sparingly.
Use...

why not rent from a social introvert?
My life is boring as hell. I don't have a lot of money to spend and I have a lot of obligations throughout the day.
How do I make my life interesting?
drugs.
>>17147653
Which drugs? I already do alcohol and have tried weed. Didn't do much.
>>17147657

>>17147465
i recommend books. If you buy something like cheap pocketbook, then you can pirate all the literature in world for free and it will keep you occupied once you find your personal genre.
So, I went on a date with this girl and found out she's living with her boyfriend of 1,5 years. she confided in me that she feels kinda trapped in the relationship but also loves her boyfriend. obviously i couldnt really advise her to end it even though i believe that cuz that would benefit me too much. anyways, weve been dating for about a month now, but we never do anything except for the whole emotional intimacy and cuddling. no kissing, no groping. shes obviously really into me and im also really into her.
is this already cheating? am i already a piece of shit?...

You feel hurt after one date. Imagine getting involved with her and her still living with her bf. Abort.
>>17147611
is this already cheating
Yes
am i already a piece of shit?
No, either she is, or her boyfriend is
Should i just keep going?
You should probably let her choose between the two of you, if she's really trapped and doesn't love him, she should break up and get with you. If he's fine, she should dump you. I'd be pretty fucking pissed if I found out my gf has been going to a guy to cuddle for some time
>>17147627
I see your point about clearing things up. Thing is, im leaving the country for 6 months at the end of summer. It's a terrible time to start a relationship and it gets worse the more time passes. At the same time, i cant expect her to find a new flat to date me for a few months, this is why i kept going. I was planning to just kind of proceed like this till i leave but i really dont know what my best course of action would be. Apparently, at the Start of the relationship, they defined cheating purely with kissing,...

Going to Vegas in a few hours for a few days to get fucked up in every witch way we can..My GF and i have been together for 10 plus years and we've talked about meeting a random guy for a one night stand for her...what better place than Vegas right...
Both of us are chubby people not fat..me mid 30's Her early 40's
She's kinda nervous about it but excited at the same time. She says she wants to wait and see how drunk she gets...
Good idea or Bad.??
Kik....onz9
>>17147587
BAD obviously, why would you want you and your wife to be with another guy, for fucks sake man
>>17147629
Chubby eh? Well I've always had a thing for THICK girls, I could be your guy lets see a pic though.
>>17147587
He'll likely have a larger package than you. You're gf will enjoy it. She will continue this outside of Vegas. It was a dumb idea if you brought it up to her.
>tfw asexual
How do I find a virgin asexual gf?
>>17147577
Why does she need to be virgin?
I've found that virgin asexuals are the ones who are most likely going to try and fuck around to see if they just need to try it once.
Nonvirgins have tried it and know they don't like it.
>>17147577
Can I ask you as a asexual being:
>why do you care about virginity?
>why do you care about girlfriend?
Why aren't general friends enough? Or even though you are asexual, you still want babies?
>How do I find a virgin asexual gf?
You simply don't because it is statical anomaly. I am kidding, but still you don't.
>>17147616
>Why aren't general friends enough?
Is really all your romantic partners have been are just friends who you stick your wiener in? There's absolutely nothing there with the romance and emotional intimacy?
I'm getting tired of vidya. I'm thinking of buying a piano keyboard. But I have no idea which brand to buy or where to start. Does anyone have any recommendations?

reading books
learning to draw
Jezus man, for music you have to do so much. And I doubt you will have the patience and courage. Try something easier.
>>17147625
I already do those things... I just want to try something new.
How would you go about making as much money as possible illegally
>>17147558
Stealing ATM is pretty common in my country.
Just steal some car,
manufacture / buy enough pic related
and then go raid some money.
4chan isn't responsible of anything you might read here.
I remember a guy from /g/ or some other board stole about 200k from ATMs. Only got caught because his partner ratted him out. It involved him using a disguise and flashing old firmware to the ATMs that contained some vulnerability.

How do tire spikes help you steal an atm?
Looking for any advice regarding Halitosis/Bad breath, from ideas about a cure to daily habits helping with it.
BTW, is ORA-Brush any good ? I'll order some if i get some positive feedback from you guys.
>>17147521
Squeeze some fresh lemon in ice water. And parsley helps too.
Brushing , flossing, tongue scraper and mouth wash TWICE A DAY, then gum after you eat.
Every 6 months per routine at a dentist
Unfortunately some people are genetically predisposed to stink.
Does your mouth get dry?
I take several medications and my mouth gets dry at times. I brush twice daily and brush my tongue with a tongue scraper, that seems to do the trick. I also make sure I drink plenty of water.
/adv/, how to grow up?
How to feel like you can survive in this world without hoping your parents will save you?
I have a feel, I need to make close friends, shamefully, only because i feel helpless. Like I have to start to finally commit to receive legit help.
I feel so vulnerable, because i am bad at reading between lines, understanding when you are just being used, when people talk behind your back. Also I am a bad liar and usually assume people tell truth to me.
Never learned how to deal with this at school, simply accepted that i'm an outcast and...

stop being a pussy dude
the world doesn't end when you are rejected. everyone goes through that, it's goddamn normal.
Can't do anything, can't do anything, can't do anything.
So annoying. Gee, what's the problem? Certainly it couldn't be the crap I'm constantly spewing, yet can't acknowledge. Absolutely neurotic. Yes, let's ignore issues, because that's what I see other people do, and that's what I've been taught to do.
Bullshit.
Just DO stuff, who cares? If you're afraid of something, make a plan. Forget other people. Other people are other people, they're irrelevant. You are you. Your plans of you should...
