How do I start loving myself?
>>17123367
You can either become a person you'd deem worthy of love or delude yourself into thinking whatever makes you unlovable is acceptable and beautiful
>>17123370
The former sounds difficult, I mean I don't even know where to begin fixing and improving myself and becoming better (though I know it will be truly rewarding) the latter is pathetic ;_;
>>17123367
What do you envy, What ruined you, what do you respect, what do you already love about yourself?
Do those things.
How to land a summer internship doing IT or web dev? Doesn't have to be paid, and I have experience interning at a local political party committee. Applied to 25 positions in the last 2 days, what do I do to be accepted?
>>17123265
Did you invite you for an interview?
If not it is probably your motivational letter than you need to put an effort into
>>17123265
I typed up my resume as well, am currently a HS senior going to undergrad at a STEM school. What am I doing wrong?
HS GPA 3.85/4 as well
>>17123272
I haven't been invited for an interview for any of the IT/web internships I've tried for. I have been invited for an interview at a state assemblyman's office but parents believe an internship corresponding with my major is the way to go
How do I make shy girls not feel threatened by me?
My last gf left me because she felt like my standards were too high for her to reach. I told her so many times that no matter what I'd love her unconditionally but she still felt inadequate.
Sometimes girls don't like approaching me because they feel too scared, when I show interest they usually get too shy to talk, but over the internet they talk to me a lot and sometimes they say they thought I was joking about liking them (?????)
Basically no matter how much interest I show they always feel...

You might want to try to be less creepy
>>17123249
I'm not creepy at all, I'm not really awkward and I'd consider myself pretty good looking. I think it's because of that reason shy girls feel threatened
>>17123249
Ah yes, those damn jews.
>totally and irreversibly fucked up socially with the people I'm living with on multiple occasions
>they exclude me as much as possible from activities
What do? Just emotionally/intellectually withdraw and look for social interaction elsewhere?

What did you do?
OP here. Here's the backstory if you wanna hear it.

>report it to the RA
Why did you do this? It was an extreme dick move. At least you've figured out the reasons they keep you around. Go find people that never heard of the story otherwise your social life is gonna be shit. Move or change school if nothing works out.
I have a late medieval history final in less than 24 hours. I didn't go to class that often during the semester, and I only read about a quarter of the assigned readings. How can I study for the final most effectively?
you cant
>>17123241
I think I can. I'm just going to read the relevant chapters in the textbook twice. My memory is pretty good, so I think I can pull it off.
>>17123245
How do you know what the relevant chapters are?
Are you a man and want to get laid? I prove that this is very easy and looks don’t matter:
Any pick up artist knows that being highly rational in field will not help you to get laid. You should think fast, act fast, respect the vibe.
However, we are men. We are naturally rational human beings. We have an inherited need to sustain our beliefs with clear assumptions and logic conclusions.
Mystery, Tyler, Julien, all the best of all times repeat: “you should not care about looks”. It does not work for most people. Why? Because it is not logic. Women like handsome...

Second part: Ceteris paribus (I mean, cultural aspects apart), it is a psychological projection to think that looks do matter. Men need to be instigated by looks in order to awake their will to penetrate the world. Women, however, do not have this will. It is not beauty that will make them open their legs. If that was the case, the world would be a total sodoma y gomorra, because they find many guys attractive, but do not have sex with all of them.
Actually, having sex with women is simpler than most people think. As we already proved, you just need their consent in order...

Fungus. Go to the dermatologist quickly before it spreads to other nails and destroys the currently infected one. It will never pass on it`s own.
What's an easy way for a man to make a good chunk of money on the side?
I have a full time job during the day that starts early in the morning and ends early afternoon. I have free weeknights and weekends.
I would love supplemental income, as long as it doesn't conflict with my current work hours. I've considered retail, but those jobs tend to avoid guys like me who are already full-timers. I'd enjoy a package store or gas station, but those can be tough. Tutoring has crossed my mind, but I've done it before and it's not that fun.

I can give you work now if you can do econ or statistics. You can earn a quick $50 for doing my homework

It's better than you'll find trying to find "passive" online income (aka surveys and captchas)
Hey guys.
There is some girl. We are good friends. Every time she takes another step closer to me. First the conversations, then the lunch. And now she comes to my house and making me massage. She asked me to do this because she needs some additional money.
Now she wants to visit me for a massage every wednesday, because it's her day off. I asked her: Why are you doing this? She replied: Because I need money. Then I've asked her: that's it? And she didn't replied, just changed a subject.
I don't know what to expect. Even she told me,...

Do you want a massage therapist?
>>17123158
She is great and beatiful. I like her. Well, I used to like her.
So you ask why she's doing it, she says it's because she needs money. How is that using you? She was clear about doing it for money.
About 4 months ago my friend claimed to have schizophrenia. He just messaged me saying:
>"I'm crazy and they told me my eating disorder is changing my brain so my mental issues change often
meaning at times my anxiety or depression is better or worse
and I develop altogether new stuff for brief amounts of time
and at the moment I'm losing a lot of myself
that's as simple as I can put it
that's why I had auditory hallucinations and stuff
and I thought I was schizo
but it's malnutrition"
He's...

its a reason for his actions, not an excuse for them
>>17123089
I think malnutrition could certainly mess with your head, but it sounds to me like he's creating false logic/imaginary structure or pattern where none exists. This is a classic schizophreniform symptom. Not so different from imagining a conspiracy against you/radios in your teeth/etc.
You should as him to lick your sphincter and if he does you'll fogive him
Hello,
short question: If I have a business card at my existing job, should I add that to my cv/application for a new job? I google'd but didn't find any related answer or topic.
I'm thinking perhaps it would add some additional seriousness or respectability to my application
Um, no? Just put details of your current job and give a (personal) email and phone number
You put your jobs as past employment or whatever its called
Lets say i was going for a logistics manager and i was a lead logistics expert in a firm yeah ill put that shit in anyday
>>17123082
As in a section like : I have a business card at my job? No, don't mention that you got a business card. It's cool, good for you, but it isn't the type of thing you put on a CV.
Dear anons,
for the last weeks, I am starting to realise that I have no actual will to finish my education.
I screwed up my second year last year and I'm actually redoing several courses of my second year and only two courses of the last year and one course (for the 3rd time) of the first year.
I also have a tendency to lie to people that "I have to work for school" when asked what my plans are while in reality I'm procrastinating, sometimes gaming, sometimes jacking off to porn and watching series. I have no actual willpower to start...

second bump
>>17123071
I had the same problem as you when I started uni. I failed as miserably as you(didnt even go to any of my exams), lied about it to my parents. Put a gun to my head but couldnt pull the trigger.
When I finally confessed my parents didnt understand but let me redo my first year. I failed again miserably and ran away from home, took a random train to abroad where i spent a week in a random hotel just watching episodes of star trek to keep me distracted. When I read my mails and understood what i made my parents go through i returned home.
I also went to prositutes before trying to kill myself because i didnt want to die a virgin.
My parents always kept forgiving me, even if they couldnt understand. I hid my suicide attempts but one time my father discovered the loaded gun (he alwasy keeps it unloaded, i didnt know how to unload it - its a bolt action rifle).
I changed subject and fell into the same habit again, flunking out in my second year.
I then decided to quit studying and find a job. I excelled in the job market. I learned quick and was eager to finally being able to prove myself. Whatever task they gave me I was eager to do it. As long as it wasnt too complex that it needed serious study time.
I started as administrative clerk at a real estate place and after 2 years I became self-employed and got my own clients to manage their properties and follow up new construction projects. I have a good income, car, travel lots and am wanted on the dating scene.
This year i restarted uni with more confidence, knowledge about my weaknesses but also about how to overcome them.
In the end you still need a degree if you want a stable life.
I am now 26, will graduate at 28 and will have a relatively good CV and no difficulty finding a job (am studying Computer Science with work experience in business self-employed).
whatever bad phase you go through just never give up.
>>17123071
What are you majoring in? Most people will still like you regardless if you have a degree or not. Maybe consider taking a semester off.
My hair has been thinning. Is there a way to style it to hide it? A way to make sure it stops or grow back the old hair?
I'm have a receding hairline at 25 and it's only going to get worse.... Im considering hair transplant
>>17123027
>>17123104
Forgot to say , get the trump.
just cut it very short and grow a goatee or neatly trimmed beard if you can
no real sense trying to hide it
For a young male, (21) What would you consider financially stable enough to get married?
>>17123026
Maybe 50-60k a year with a steady white-collar job
That's when my brother married anyways and he's been fine. Of course moved out is another, and paying for your own insurance
>>17123026
It depends on where you live. $45K/year in one state might get you a lot further than in another state. You might need $60K just to live as comfortably as that $45K.
It also depends on how you live. You can be incredibly frugal yet still have a decently nice and comfortable lifestyle if you're okay with that and can manage it properly. Or hell are you even just okay with being poor?
It's all relative to your personal situation. What is stability to you, and more importantly what does it mean to your partner? You could get a rough idea here but there are a lot of variables you need to give us to more accurately assess you.

Should there be a prerequisite # of years working beforehand?
what's the deal with big cocks ? Anyone here have a big one? What do girls say or think?
I am in a happy relationship, I always focused on being a good lover...however the knowledge of someone with a bigger one "outclassing " me makes me depressed. I have 14 cm length and 12 cm girth, I never had problems satisfying girls, but what I could do with an extra inch is always at the back of my mind.
So what do you think? besides me getting over it, what can be done and what's the deal with big cocks?
>>17123013
Everything about big cocks is psychological. There are women who can only gain pleasure from dicks of certain size, sure, but for every size queen there's also plenty of women who would find the experience painful.
It's more of a male competition thing, as you've already alluded to. Having a cock is the simplest biological indicator of being a man. So if
Cock = man
Bigger cock = bigger man
And who doesn't want to be a bigger and better man? That's the reptilian...

In my experience, very few women have questioned the functionality and size of my dick.
Depending on the day, I've seen my dick rage to 8", but 9/10 I'm a solid 5" cut with some girth and a nice curve. Definitely a grower too.
It also depends on the woman's experience and the angle she's getting a look at it with. From the side or top down, my dick doesn't look that impressive because I'm overweight. But when they get an under or angled view, it looks monstrous....

so what can be done ? from my mind it isrational not emotional. having more cock,at least a but,will have no negatives and possibly sone positives...anyway,quality post,thank you,
