Rumors are circling that I have a thing for my boss, and the reason I'm getting favorable treatment and rising so fast is because she has a thing for me. How do I squash this, or deal with it?
I did have a thing for her... She clearly had a thing for me, but nothing happened. She's now married and pregnant. But my feelings are gone. I think hers are too.
>>18508739
I guess I should have added context... I've had a 2x jump in salary since she became my boss, and when she goes on maternity leave, I'm going to take over her role as director, even though I'm junior to a significant chunk of people in the department.
>>18508746
Rumors are true then, nothing you can do about without risking your promotions.
Best to just allow people to think what they think.
actively trying to change people's perception is extremely noticeable.
unless you care what people think you're on the winning end of things. excelling at work, while actually having a thing for the boss in past...kinda makes that rumor 95% true anyways.
so i broke up with her and within weeks she fucked another dude. a month later fucked another., then somo other two. i didnt know about this until saturday and it crushed me. we maintained communication like cute frirty firends throughout. i thought she still loved me and hoped for us to get back. but she was already fucking dudes in the meantime i didnt fuck any girl.
i feel a constant pain in my chest. she was my first. i was her first. and now she is a slut and i feel something that was mine and mine alone has been completely and irremediably rotten up.
now, she says we could come back and be happy again, but she doesnt wanna be asked about what she did ever again.
i miss her body (my type) and her personality.
i feel destroyed and in doubt about getting back together.
what do?
pic not her but very similar
>>18508648
you guys were broken up and because she had sex while you were both single and not in a relationship it crushed you? No wonder you guys broke up, holy fuck.
>>18508648
I feel you pain anon. It was pure and it was yours no one else's. Now she has been tainted by other cocks. Do you feel queasy in your stomach. Knots that just won't go away. It feels unfair. Don't get back with her. She wants to keep it hush hush. Show her that actions have consequences. This is certain, she did this one she'll do it again. It will only cause you more pain. It's not worth it mate. There's another girl out there that's 10 times better.
>>18508664
This. What the fuck did you expect OP? For her to stay sexless until you two made up? Get a fucking clue.
I kinda feel like I'm always the outcast, or the bad guy.
I grew up with a feminist mom/aunts/grandma that always said men where the worst. It was really common for me to hear that I was a piece of shit for being male and I'd sure cheat/abuse my wife when I grew up.
Bullied during school, in HS I beat the shit out of a bully so no one fucked with me, but then I was suddenly the scary dude and nearly got expelled.
During college I was broke and since I'm Mexican I'm "part of the problem".
Got out of college and now I'm a baller but since I'm in tech I'm also part of the problem, also known as "a fucking yuppie". Also we're all sexist assholes and keep women out of tech jobs.
Why am I always stuck with bad stereotypes?
WTF am I doing wrong?
>>18508639
Dude you did nothing wrong you had the misfortune of haveing cunts for providers growing up. All that shit they stuffed in your head as a kid, there all lies anon it's literally bullshit. Forget about the past. It doesn't exist anymore focus on the now. Fuck what others have to say. You do you chico.
dont focus too much on the stereotypes man, just have your circle of good friends around you dont be open to people you dont know and live ur life
"they hate us 'cause they aint us"
sums it up pretty much OP
you are doing nothing wrong. if anything their seething rage and jealousy should be funny
I have been with my girlfriend for 7-years and every time I think about asking her to marry me I end up getting cold feet and deciding not to do it. Most recently I was going to take her on a nice trip and do it, and then she started getting irritated over certain details of the trip and I no longer felt like asking her to marry me.
I know I love her with all my heart and I care about her deeply. On top of that we have a lot in common as well, and I'd go as far as to say she is my best friend. On top of that I don't even think about breaking up with her; I just can't bring myself to want to ask her to be my wife, and I don't know why.
What the fuck is wrong with me?
>>18508632
What did she get irritated about? What did she say?
>>18508643
She grew up with a lot of money and used to go on very nice, long trips with her family growing up. I have a decent job, but week long stays at 4-star hotels are a bit out of the question. I was trying to compromise 4 days at a highly rated 3-star, and that we drive instead of ly because we'd save about $200 by not flying. She got mad because that wasn't a long enough vacation and she didn't want to drive 15-hours to get there and then back. I explained to her it was because of money and was still upset. She did eventually get over it and agreed to drive, do five nights at the 3-star, but the whole argument and that fact that she was acting so entitled over going on a nice trip just really pissed me off. I was planning on looking for a ring this week, but now I'm not sure I want to.
>>18508660
Ya she sounds really entitled. That's a tough one. I wouldn't be surprised if she'd also gets pissed the engagement ring isn't expensive enough.
I want advice in being as selfish as I can
One of the things I was thinking of doing was request not to be an organ donor wich is something you have to do even tho it Should be the default position
I also vote exclusively right wing
What else can I do?
>>18508624
Kill yourself it's the ultimate selfish thing you can do.
>>18508635
I disagree
Killing yourself isn't selfish when nobody loves you
>>18508646
Just because you're in denial that no body loves you, doesn't mean there aren't people that love you.
Does anyone know any websites that ship vape juice to California without verifying if you're 21? I'm 20

I regret losing my virginity to my ex. To me my virginity was special. How do I end this regret? I'm 18 and I wanted to wait until marriage
i guess you should have thought about this beforehand, anon. obviously it will pass eventually as all things do.
The concept of virginity is made up, it doesn't really mean anything.
>>18508580
you can't undo losing your virginity. but that doesn't mean it wasn't special.
Apparently I am scary, even though I try not to be at all. I have a thousand eye stare, dark circles under my eyes, I have a gaunt appearance and am constantly told to smile and that I look angry. In reality I'm just shy and not a good socializer. How do I fix this? Girls always seem way too scared to talk to me unless they're drunk
>>18508522
Own that shit. Strike fear in the hearts of your enemies!
>>18508522
Yeah I have a serious case of resting bitch face and it doesnt help being tall, but try a small slight smile, they can help lighten up a face
>>18508536
I was in the Army but I hated it, would've been cool though
>>18508539
I'm the same, I keep forgetting to smile. I've been told by people that they feel I'm judging them and hate them just because of my appearance and lack of communication
So here's the situation : I'm extremely anxious all the time, to the point where I can't normally go outside of my house except to go to school, and I panic if I have to do anything else outside that's different from that. I don't have any working experience, and I'm 22 ; my resume is a page long, even a bit shorter.
Magically though, I got an interview for a job, which I kind of need. It's a high skilled job as an intern in a lawyer firm, and I don't know how to do an interview and do it well. I don't talk to other people well (I'm nervous, can't look at them, I sometimes have palpitations, especially if I do something outside of my routine), I can't explain why I haven't been employment before then, and I don't have a suit with a tie to wear to the interview and can't buy one. What should I do? I'm lost, can anyone help me do well?
Cut the bullshit you're there because you want the job so be honest with whoever is interviewing you and tell them why having you as part of their workplace would be beneficial to them
>>18508550
I honestly can't really justify that. My grades are above average at best, so how do I justify that I'm an asset if I don't have prior work experience as well? Would just saying what I'm interested in or what classes I've taken in a subject be good enough a justification?
>>18508550
How does on do that?
Any tips on taking Liquor from walmart? They are usually empty at night, especially on a tuesday.
Walmart sells liquor?
Wouldn't it make more sense to take it when they're packed?

I got a blowjob from this really awkward, shy girl. Shes overweight, doesn't wear much make up, usually dresses pretty frumpy (Band T-shirts with the neck cut out, Denim skirts or plaid skirts, wild ass hair or sloppily put into uneven pigtails.) is obsessed with very repetitive video games, and draws porn regularly and a HEAVY drinker.
The thing is, I haven't talked to her in a year, maybe even longer... but I can't get her out of my head. I used to be in an open relationship with my wife, and thats when I got a blowjob from this woman... but now my wife has closed the relationship and I can't stop thinking about this girl. I don't know what it is about her, she feels like she would be amazing to be with, shes kind hearted, awkward as FUCK, super appreciative of any kind of attention, gives AMAZING head. I feel awful though because I do love my wife, but EVERY time I have sex with her I am thinking of this other girl.
I have become so obsessed, I stalk her, but its become hard... the only online activity she has now is Steam, Here (I can tell when its her posting because she posts her art here). She has had no activity on anything else.
I am tempted to contact her and try to hook up with her. What do I do?
I asked this yesterday but still need more advice.
>>18508442
Post a link to some of her art.

How about working at a call center?

I've been applying for them but 9/10 call centre listings ask for 2 years experience or more. I still apply but I haven't heard back from any at all
ive had 7 sessions with my first therapist ever.
the issue is that i still feel nearly as shitty as ever. i also have a deep skepticism of therapy/therapists in general, which provides a lot of resistance for me in therapy. e.g. the whole thing seems phony to me, i dont like the fact that i have to pay somebody to listen to me, or feel obligated to be concerned about my issues. every time i leave the office i'm upset with myself for not being more honest, but im not sure if i'll ever have the courage to be vulnerable enough in front of another person for any healing to take place.
i'm not sure if its because of the therapist (who seems very experienced but maybe just isnt a match for me) or jsut because i'm too resistant to make any progress.
should i jump ship and try to find another therapist, or stick it out for another while with this one?
>>18508379
Just be honest with your therapist jesus christ. Imagine if you said the same thing about your doctor or nurse? Telling them you have the pain somewhere else isn't going to make you better any sooner and it's a waste of both of your time.
> i dont like the fact that i have to pay somebody to listen to me, or feel obligated to be concerned about my issues.
That's not what you pay a therapist for, you're paying for therapy. They are there to talk you through everything, not just listen.
If you're planning on switching try a few sessions where you're honest and see how it goes since you'd have nothing to lose anyway.
Maybe get an online therapist who talks through the internet. That way the quality of their help can be analyzed by their employer, and they can read your entries more thoroughly to better understand your feelings, so their more likely to provide good helpful feedback.
Try betterhelp.com
I've had a similar problem anon, and online therapy I found was a bit more helpful than sitting in a room with someone for an hour. Unfortunately they are a private organization so its not covered by your health insurance, but maybe thats why its better?
Try another one. Either you jell or you don't. You shouldn't feel like forcing the conversation. You should feel at ease throwing up all your issues and not holding back.
A while ago I started dating this girl. She has really bad depression and anxiety. It was my first real girlfriend and we had a lot of fun together. I fell in love and we took each other's virginities. About 6 months in I started feeling like I was just making her depression worse. So I broke up with her and it really hurt both of us.
Bout a month later we started getting back together. It didn't last long at all. She sent me a text one day out of the blue explaining why she ended it.
Basically she thought I was using her even though I wasn't. She felt walked on and used. This made me feel horrible. She never told me about this problem and I swear if she did I would've stopped but she didn't believe me.
She cut contact with me all together, totally ghosted me. I apologized to her but to no avail. When she texted me it was almost like she wasn't there like she was a robot. Her cousin who I was close with started asking me if I was ok and I told her about how bad I felt and my ex just sorta assumed it was me trying to manipulate her so I could get back together.
I talked to her in person one last time. Really apologized let my whole heart out to her.
She told me I put her in therapy and she couldn't have anything close to a boyfriend.
Everyone told me she would talk a ton of shit about me behind my back
Then later that week she had a new guy.
I'm assuming he was a rebound because she never posted pictures with her and I but a ton with her and her new guy.
It's been 2.5 moments now
I'm getting better but I still feel lost
Any advice is appreciated because part of me just wants her back
Either way if you read all my shit thanks
>>18508376
you shouldn't care.
You breaking up with her should have been the end of it. Wether you were right or wrong in your assumption you shouldnt of got back together because she never really trusted you anymore after that.
You made your choice, accept it and move on.
>>18508376
>took each other's virginities
>in love
Also that was a stupid reason to break up with her. People with depression just have it. You weren't makeing it worse it just never went away. you broke her trust which seemed fragile to begin with. Next time you want to break up with someone for stupid shit talk to them first. You're not getting her back anon. Just do better next time.
>>18508597
I know it was a dumb thing to do
I was lost myself at the time, had a lot of family shit going on and I could barely see her
