Tell me guise, when does the pain stop.

When you stop hitting the bottle and start hitting the weights.
At that point it becomes a more useful type of pain.

There is no such thing as absence of suffering
You just gotta choose a kind of suffering that's worth living with. Like lifting.

>>18453637
I've lifted long enough to realise It's still just a substitute for real emotions. But it is far more constructive.

Let's greentext this short story.
>Be in love with filmmaking from age 6.
>Do it for years as a hobby and freelance job.
>At age 18, apply to my dream university - a major film school.
>Get in, but it's way too much money. $30,000 a semester, almost
>End up studying film at a good university. Not a big film school, but a decent program.
>When I move to this school, make a close knit group of three or so new friends... the best I'd ever had
>I'm studying film, my best friend studied business, one psychology, one economics.
>Over the summer, I invite them to work on a project with me.
>Had a great time.
>best friend kind of disappears for like two months
>we reconnect over lunch
>turns out he has changed majors from business to film because it seemed "easy and fun"
>he also applied to the major film school I dreamed of going to.
>Found out today he got in.
>He has a 2.3 GPA and failed out of his first university... didn't even put together a portfolio for this film school... but his family is super wealthy so he gets to go. Like that was what he said. They rejected him, his dad made a sizeable donation, and they changed their mind.
I love this guy - best friend I've ever had - but I feel such... envy and hatred and anger tonight. I know it's bitterness and it's ugly, but I can't shake it. Fuck him. That was my thing.
I know filmmaking isn't owned by me, but it just feels... sucky. And another element is... well, fuck, my best friend is moving away. But fuck him.
The envy and jealous and bitterness is causing me to get really anxious, too. My heart is thumping and I feel like screaming and crying. I've dealt with anxiety for quite sometime, so it's not new, but nevertheless is awful.
I don't know, any advice? At all?

It's never good to be jealous, but this seems like a situation that even a normal and well-adjusted person would find frustrating. What helps me deal with anger I'd 30 minutes of exercise a day and 30 minutes of mediation a day.
>>
>>18453654
It's good advice. I do meditation paired with prayer daily, but I sat down to focus and pour all of that out and be mindful and calm my spirit, so-to-speak, but I couldn't even seem to do that.
The uglier side of this is an old truth I once heard: "Jealousy is just insecurity cast upon someone else." Maybe, beneath the surface, I feel like a failure or inadequate or I don't know. It sucks. I can't even put my finger on it.
I see my counselor on Thursday. That's quite a bit away though and I feel quite low. And I'm not sure 50 minutes with a therapist will do much for this feeling of doubt and dread and envy.
Some people would use a situation like this to spur them on - offer up some competition and push harder. I guess my brain and my heart work differently.
>>
>>18453627
That's a fucked situation man but art is art for its own sake don't mar its integrity by this sort of jealousy and prestige and other bullshit, make film to make film and let him underappreciate what you know is something much more than just an easy subject, it's his loss.

>Be me, lonely anon who's only ever had 1.5 loves
>Met this girl a year ago, become extremely close friends
>Spend a ton of time together, talk all the time, etc.
>Femanon goes to Maine for the summer, but we promise to keep in touch
>She seems to have just randomly forgotten about me; she barely starts text conversations with me anymore and leaves me on read often
>Start to feel upset, realize that it's because I feel like she's a lot closer of a friend to me than I am to her
>Backstory: this girl got me through a lot of depression, suicidal thoughts, and she was the first one I came out as bisexual to
Is she just a very close friend that I want to keep, or am I romantically attracted to her?
And if it's the latter, what should I do? I don't want to mess up our friendship.
HELP

Update:
>I'm very introverted, but the girl is an extremely extroverted socialite. She seems to cycle through friends a lot, but we've consistently been friends despite that.
>Everyone I know says that either they already thought we were a couple or we would make an amazing couple
>I've met all her friends, her family, and some of her cousins
>She's a really great friend to me, and she's come to me when she's anxious a lot, but I'm not sure if I've helped her as much. I just have no idea

Sounds like you're attracted to her.
If you don't want to mess up the friendship, just continue being friends with her. Act flamboyant around her.

>Over 18, so can do most jobs without problems

>No school, no friends and no gf, so I'm available all the time without problems
>Latinofag, so i can speak both english and spanish. This is a big plus because this city is full of white people and mexicans.
The only reason I want a job is because I'm currently living with my parents and I'm scared of being kicked out of the house, i have no money and i just wanna save for a car and (probably) college.

Join the military. They give you free food and housing, so the money you make can go directly into savings. In addition, the military will pay for college education. No loans. No bullshit. They pay for it in addition to receiving your salary. I think you get a bonus for knowing Spanish also.

Since you have both restaurant and customer service experience, try to become a waiter. The job sucks but you can make $15+ an hour and you might make new friends or meet hot chicks. At some places you might have to start as a bus boy first but it varies from place to place.
- First, call the place and ask if they're accepting applications.
- Second, go monday through thursday between the hours of 2 and 4pm. These specific hours tend to be when someone can actually sit down to talk with you. Bring your resume and ask to speak to a manager if possible. To save on gas and time, try to hit up 2 or, time permitting, even 3 places per trip to drop off your resumes (but make sure you call first so you don't waste your time).
- Third, nail the interview or wait for the call. Apply to other places in the meantime. Call in a week if they haven't gotten back to. Just ask to inquire about your application. But don't pester them beyond that.
Your ability to speak spanish means you can apply to mexican restaurants as well. Same rules apply.

What do I have to do to get my roman catholic priest to approve me as a godparent? He knows my whole family except me and I have not been to church in 15 years or so.
Is it fucked up to lie and pretend I'm not an atheist? My sister doesn't care that I won't be a religious part of her dumb kids life.

Does a priest actually have to approve that? Isn't it just the parents' decision?

Get drugs, take said drugs. Become "that guy on drugs" instantly becoming everyones friend in that weird druggie kind of way.
Eventually become the notorious club dealer and thus the coolest kid in the club

Alright lads, to preface this, I'm a kissless virgin. In the past year I've worked out a lot(got abs, wider shoulders, decent chest, good butt), got a good skincare routine, good fashion sense, etc. I look good enough so that I get a lot of matches on tinder. I've met up with a few but I am too autistic to make anything happen with random women. I have a friend. The only time I've hung out with her outside of school is when she asked me to hang with her. I really fucking like her. She also seems to like me. She would always follow me around, she finds excuses to make physical contact(punch me, bump into me). She knows that I am in good shape, she has seen me shirtless, she has seen me workout in the weightroom, etc. She even stealthily compliments me on it. She sent pictures of me to her friends and they asked if she was fucking me. When she said no, her girl friend kept saying why she should fuck me, which led us to talking about it. She seemed to be interested in me, but she said that I was too old for her( I am 18, she is 16, we are less than two years apart but we are 3 grade levels apart. Still legal in my state tho). I can tell she likes me, but I don't know how to go about this. I want to tell her I like her, but I don't want to ruin the friendship because she is one of my few close friends(one of the only people that knows I'm bi). How the fuck do I go about this? I don't just want to fuck her, I actually like her a lot, even just as a friend. How do I let her know that I like her in a romantic way without fucking up the friendship? How do I get her to not worry about the age barrier? Should I just man up and fuck a tinder slut and forget about this? Pls, pls help.

Don't do this.
I think you should just tell her how you feel anyway, if you want to be safe, wait until she's 17
>>
16-18 is not an age barrier.
If you want to fuck her but want to remain friends, just try and do a great job of fucking her. If you're a virgin, this means you must masturbate beforehand so that you don't cum instantaneously during your first sex.

My mom back in March finally ended a verbally abusive relationship with a guy who would terrorize us constantly. Ever since then, she's been depressed about not being able to hold up a relationship with my father(they divorced in early 2008) and the guy I just mentioned. It pains me to see her cry from working as a teacher, not having anyone to love, and being a social outcast. I want to see her love someone like she loved my father and her ex. Is there a website or something where a 50 year old would find love?

Literally any dating website would suffice. My brother met his fiancee on POF.
I would doubt that 50+ year olds would have any issue, we aren't talking elderly women here in their 80s.
Best of luck to you both

I have been able to stare directly at the sun for over 6 years now. I'm not blind. I have some sort of regenerative qualities.
I want to know how I could go about being studied for this so that I could contribute to curing diseases and aiding humanity in general but I don't know how I could begin the process, where should I go to be studied? Serious inquiry, no trolls here.

I guess it's kinda healthy to compare yourself to other every now and then.
See the absurdly positive side aswell but still question what's better. As for an extreme example: "That guy just finished college flawlessly and i am still working my 9-5 job as a cashier, i guess i had more freetime all those years."
>>
>>18453453
Or alternatively to that sort of comparison
>My friend just acquired a phd while Im still working full time however my ambitions lay in different areas and we're both different people.
Is it perhaps shame you feel? Maybe you need to invest more into yourself such as finding a hobby, joining clubs and setting yourself up for the future.
You don't need to be person A. You just need to bring yourself your own fulfillment. It doesnt have to come packaged in a standard form.

Met this girl while on the piss and she was more excited to see me throughout the night than anyone else in my life before. Got her number which was a first for me too. But no reply to the "great meeting you" etc text and her DP is her and her boyfriend. She also turned 18 a day ago while I'm 23.
She's playing me, right?

I need some serious help; I might become homeless because my piece of shit roommate signed another lease to be with his girlfriend and he might break the lease he has with me to go be with her.
I don't have much money saved up, certainly not to move again, and I need some help.
I know that most of you will insult me and be little me, but I need money to help me move, which I might have to.
I'm seriously begging you guys; anything will help.
