Alright, /adv/
I work at a gas station and I'm suppose to be promoted to assistant manager by the time I graduate from HS due to nepotism within the company I work for since my dad is fairly high up. I honestly fucking hate my job and wanna quit and pursue a buisness carrier. Should I quit?
>Pic unrelated it's my Waifu
Depends on what you've got the funds to do, man. It's not like you can't pick up a job at a gas station at any time, so I see no real loss. If you don't have the money to get by for a while, or money for schooling, it's another issue. If it's green, then go for it.
You should try to become your waifu

She's to perf it's unachievable
Advice what should I do. My ex girlfriend cheated on me 3 years ago and I went no contact. I'm coming home for the summer (in grad school) and she just texted me out of nowhere asking if I want to hangout
>She has turned into a huge slut the last 3 years
>I have no feelings for her, not even mad anymore
>But I'd still hit that
Should I go for it?
>>17120637
Nah. Probably it isn't worth the drama. Fuck someone else.
>>17120637
Fuck no.
Jesus christ.
If you're hard up maybe. Seems like more trouble than its worth, who knows maybe you're a fallback, don't date her again.
how caN YOU PULL AN ALL-NIGHTER FOR MULTIPLE DAYS!?
>>17120556
Unless you actually need to, it's gonna be difficult.
I once did around 40h awake because I had to finish a project. By the time I went to sleep, I was hearing things
>>17120556
Drugs.
Outside of that you'd need to condition yourself by staying awake for long periods before you do it, even then it's really hard.
Not to mention that it's really bad for your health.
Why would you want to? You feel gross
I'm having trouble getting serious with this amazingly cute girl. She's very cute and I'm fairly below average at best. She keeps wanting something serious but I'm always worried that her friends/family will think she can do a lot better. Her ex-boyfriends have all been significantly better looking than me and pretty attractive. Like I said, I'm fairly ugly and kinda fat.
I know I should get /fit/ and I will, but what about in the meantime? What do?
Don't be so down on yourself. Not everything is looks. Plus, kinda fat guys are attractive to a lot of ladies. We like when you're cuddly.
>>17120555
shit anon just show her those trips
I think that satisfying her is more important than pleasing her family. If she's already interested in you then you shouldn't wait just so you can satisfy her family. You can work on your goal of getting /fit/ while simultaneously kissing the cutie.

Sounds like you're having a quarter life crisis.
Well, I agree with a lot of what you're saying- technology isn't the problem. It's people being shitty. You can for the most part avoid advertisment with adblock- so, there's that.
Everything has it's pros and cons- advanced communication and technology isolates us while bringing us closer together. I can see friends and family that live on the other side of the world in real time, etc. I'd recommend reading the book Alone Together-...

Thanks for the book recommendation. I also had no idea that a quarter-life crisis was even a thing, but it seems to sum up what I'm experiencing now.
The only problem is that it's too late to really change my direction. I'm $20,000 in debt, freshly graduated from school and without a job. I know there is no way I can go back to school to learn something else unless it's free or incredibly cheap.
>23 year old kissless virgin

Should I do it guys? Are women worth the effort?
Nah just stay a kissless virgin forever dude
Yes. How far gone do you have to be to think about not trying things out with her? I wish I had that apathy in regards to women.
What type of advice is this? Of course you should if you like her back.
Give me tips and shit. Also here is my twitter fallow me yo!!!

How much do you write and how often? That's what matters, nothing else. If the answers aren't "pages on pages" and "often" you aren't going to be a famous writer.

Are ethnic tattoos on girls unattractive?
I want to get north african tattoos (I'm actually north african)
Statistically speaking the average model of beauty in western countries do not sport extensive limb-covering tattoos. However I don't think they are strictly unattractive by themselves. Your personal health care achieved through exercise, diet, stress relief and good posture will contribute a greater impact.

>I want to get north african tattoos (I'm actually north african)
Generally, ethnic tattoos are not a good idea unless they reflect your actual ethnicity. Do the tattoos you're looking at reflect your specific heritage?
>>17120549
Yes
Sup /adv/. I need some help. I have been dealing with depression and anxiety problems for the last 4 years. It was bad enough that I had planned on killing myself the day before my 18th birthday. Then I met this girl about 4 months ago. She doesn't know it, but she's the only reason I'm still alive. School ends in 2 weeks, then she moves states for college. I'm starting to fall back into my depression, and I know it's going to get bad again soon. She's noticed that something is bothering me, and has tried to get me to say something. So here's...

if you feel that you can't tell friends or your parents then call 911 and tell them you're thinking about killing yourself
they'll send an ambulance to pick you up and take you to a hospital where you'll be spoken to by a psychiatrist and afterwards probably committed for a few weeks.
>>17120493
But if I make that call, they will find out. I really do want this person to know what's happening, even though there really isn't anything she can do to help me. I feel like she deserves to know. The question still remains, how do I bring this up? I have never told anyone irl about how fucked up I am.
who don't you want to know, your parents?
why can't you tell them, they need to know about this more than anyone, don't do something as stupid as teenage suicide
I'm maried to filipina. There's elections next week.
She goes to political celebration yesterday (I discovered today only) and I was all day long worried sick cause she didn't eat home. She return past midnight without giving satisfactions and went straight to bed.
Wake up today 6am find my property walls littered with loads of political advertisements.
Start cleaning walls, wash street, prune trees, feed animals, count newborn babies, harvest fruits, and come inside trying to enjoy a blissful sunday in peace and confort at home... typical...

American here so I don't really know the situation on the ground, but do you really think Duterte would risk civil war by declaring martial law?
>>17120511
You do realize that the 40 richest families in the Philippines control 76% of the GDP right? As an American saying this completely goes against my nature but democracy has failed your country, the government police and judiciary only exist to make the rich richer and provide complete impunity from their crimes.
How can a problem that runs so deep possibly be fixed without revolution?
>>17120480
>Do you really think Duterte would risk civil war by declaring martial law?
The guy doesn't matter... I care about wife going to his celebrations and then coming home brainwashed as a soldier ready to chop heads... that's what I care about.
My home and my family come first to me... that's the whole reason why I had to look for a wife on the other side of the world... to find woman that were family oriented (or so I used to think).
>friend invited me to hang out downtown
>really excited, never dine anything like this before

Wat do
Threesome
>>17120456
Double team her. That's what she wants. When you go, walk on the other side of her put your arm around her.
>>17120456
Dont do it worst feeling ever.
For some reason, someone I speak to thinks this girl likes me.
I did ask this girl out twice. Once Yes, second was "I'll have to see when Im free"
Then the screen shots happened when I asked her to hang out with some friends.
Should have mentioned that I am interested in her obviously, but I dont see these as anything more. But something must be there for a my friend to think she is interested.

So I've never gone on a real date because I either goob up or they turn me down
The problem appears to be I come off as desperate, and I'm impatient
So I've started giving my numbers to girls instead, this means I can't text them saying pls respond or be pushy, and if they actually are interested they will contact me. Stereo types aside, man asking woman, is this a legit strategy? I'm fed up with getting their numbers, they either don't respond or they wanna play stupid ass games, it makes sense that she would...

I feel like though whenever I get a girls number I fuck up bad, so it's kinda protecting me from that to an extent
My dad left my mom and I when i was very young and in the past few years he's been trying to be a part of my life.
Today was my college graduation and he just called and tried to talk to me. I hung up on him.
Idk I just feel very weird about it all. He's never been in my life before and now he's trying to come back and assume some authority figure over me just because I'm genetically related to him? This probably sounds childish as all fuck, but i just don't feel like talking to him or letting him "back in" despite all my family...

That you don't even know the guy and you're already making assumptions about him. That shows your lack of empathy.
>>17120432
well he didn't show much empathy for my mother when we were growing up
Your point is right, i can understand what you feel but as long as it is not getting uncomfortable for you, you can let him to know you, or get close to you, maybe there can be a good relationship for two of you, not like a typical father-son but still can be worth on the other hand you are always to free to live your life, it is clear that you do not need father figure anymore and it is normal
Is it normal to lose interest in sex with age?
I'm 25 and I got married a year ago. We used to do it a lot when we first met but it quickly tapered off (maybe do it a few times a year now). It kinda feels like a chore especially when there's the worry of pregnancy and to be honest there are other lots of things I find more interesting and productive to focus on.
My wife's attractive but not a glamour model. There's not much scope for improving our looks much more barring surgery and it's just downhill for both of us from here considering...

I'm 23, unmarried, and I feel the same. I can't answer your question, but I am wondering the same thing. I suppose everyone's different though.
>>17120397
"One year"
"We do it a few times a year"
>>17120403
You know what I mean
Maybe I should have married someone more with bigger tits or something..
