Silly question time: I'm going to start learning C++. But don't know lickity shit about computer stuff. I have a cheesey laptop. It has a weak ass quad core processor. Will this suffice? For like the coding program and compiler.

Yes it will suffice. C++ has been around way longer than quad core processors, you'll be fine
>>
As long as you don't use some resource hungry IDEs, old computers shouldn't face much trouble. Rest assured.

> weak ass quad core processor
First thing to learn is probably how fucking fast that "weak ass" quad core processor actually is.

But sure, it should work just fine.

Doctors dude

Red blood means it's on the lower end of the intestine, which means it isn't getting digested, and is likely from the rectum. Though it may not be. If you are constipated or haven't been having enough fiber, that can cause hard stools which causes bleeding.

But if you have a family history, go see a doctor to make sure.

Yeah I guess thats the obivous choice, honestly scared to find out whats wrong which in the back of my mind makes me want to put it off. Fuck it I know your right tho I will force myself to make an appointment tomorrow morning. (might switch doctors since last one is 100% incompetent)

how do I stop being a manchild? I am 20, no drivers license, still living with family, I spend my time, either on here, playing video games, or on Youtube. I want to change, I am sick of myself. the catch is that I have really low self-esteem, I always doubt myself, or put myself down when i succeed, or beat myself up when I fail. bonus I'm a virgin , manlet, with a small penis, go getting a gf is out of the question.

Leave the house every day
Get a job
Talk to a lot of different people
>>
Get a job and start lifting.
>>
I'd start with two things-
1. Get a driver's license.
2. Get a job.

Even if you're just flipping burgers, give yourself a reason to leave the house. Heck, your family might appreciate you taking the initiative and will help you out.

I can't exactly tell you how to change your self-esteem and such, but you can at least try. Try to improve your self image, eat better, get out to the gym from time to time.

It's good you are aware of yourself and want to change, you just gotta take it in stages.

I want to talk about suicide. More importantly, how does someone come to a level where they are ready to go through with the suicide?

The only logical thing I can think of is that those who have committed suicide have talked themselves into a state where suicide isn't a scary concept anymore. Much like conditioning ones self to think that something is rational whether it is or isn't. Much like a mantra, or something similar.

Also, the planning stages. How will it be done, where will it be done, etc. I imagine some suicides are very well planned out, to ensure the most success.

Anyways, what is your take on it?

>>18486535
I've had suicidal thoughts before, and it isn't as dramatic as it sounds. Sure, if you really sit down and think about it you'll freak the fuck out, but when you're in the moment it's more like trying to pick which room to clean first in your house. It's not an overwhelming, pulsing urge. It's just an option that seems to make a lot more sense than it actually does. That's my take on it at least, don't know how someone else would deal.
>>
Suicide is for pussies and serves no purpose. You're probably like 15-30 in age which is a fucking speck of time in your full lifetime. In fact if you were only 15 and not 30 you'd have a full time life again to live before you're even 30. People who kill themselves are idiots because life will and can always change.
>>
>>18486535
Suicides are often spur of the moment impulses in most cases, they come from thoughts like >>18486549 mentioned. There are however some people who have long since considered the pros and cons of suicide and opted to end their life through a well planned out method, generally you only see that in people with a very long standing untreated mental illness or a terminal illness. There are also other cases were the thought of killing oneself becomes an overwhelming invasive though because no other option seems viable in life.

How to choose the right one to go after? I always had bad luck with dating and men. The one I went on dates with almost always want one thing first: sex. And I want to get things done slowly, to have time to bond and build up the feelings.
Please advise me how to sense a nice guy or at least a guy won't go after a hookup?

>Please advise me how to sense a nice guy or at least a guy won't go after a hookup?

Well first off you do NOT want a nice guy.

If you want a guy who isn't going to immediately try to grab you by the pussy then go after a guy who doesn't display much interest in you. Look for someone that can be in the same general area as you that doesn't give you unneeded attention. Then give him attention,get a date and shit test him to see if he can consistently establish he cares about himself and won't sacrifice so easily for you(EX: "Can I drive your car"). Assuming he passes, you have your guy.

If I go after a guy doesn't show much there's chances he doesn't like me as well.

I'm 21 and my gf wants kids. I already told her that I'm not ready for it but her attitude makes me worried an "accident" might happen and I'll be forced to just deal with it.

What do? And on that note, when is the "right" time to have kids? What kind of sane person would willingly subject themselves to that kind of responsibility?

There you go.
>>
>>18486526
I would wait. I'm 31 and I had my son at 29. I feel like that is around the right age to have a kid. Early to mid 20s should be about having fun, dating around, and establishing yourself at a job.
>>
>>18486526
>when is the "right" time to have kids?

It depends on the person but I think the best is when you're about 30. By then you've probably made all the large personal expenses you have wanted to make for yourself and have a job you can see yourself doing up until retirement

20-26 is just too damn early IMO. You've still got potential left to adventure there.

Is it dumb to go to a university I can't afford?

It's one of the top in the country and it's hard to get into. I was accepted but it's out of town and I won't be getting any financial support. It will cost me $20,000 each year for rent, food, tuition, books etc. I only have 2000 saved up. Is this dumb? Should I go to college in town for something I won't like, like nursing or social work?

I'm 23 and I've never been in a relationship. Whenever the opportunity arose, I fucked it up by being too clueless, afraid, or being too closed off to people. I've gotten better about the last two, but I'm still clueless. I'd like to give relationships a try though, so where do I start?

Some general questions:
>I don't know how to meet girls anymore now that I'm done school. Should I use a dating site or are those useless?
>What is flirting and how do I do it?
>What is dating and how does it work?

Please assume I know nothing and explain things in the simplest terms, if possible.

If the point of this was to make me think about the kind of girl I'd want to date... you got me. This seems like the easiest part, but I have no idea really. Or more accurately, I have very vague and conflicting ideas. How big of a problem is this?

I'm 22 and I feel as if I might be already going through my quarter-life crisis.

I...well, a lot of me always was fond of youthful ideas, things, and activities (such as sports, comics/make-believe, and parties), and I kind of just forgot about how I was no longer young, or that I was growing up. While I was not looking, life has pulled out the world from right underneath me. One day I woke up and I was paralyzed by my mortality. At 18, the world was full of possibility and I didn't think that I was a fucktard that spent months like pennies. Now? Fuck me, and fuck my entire life.

Some notes about me
>have been forever fat but am losing weight (70 lost so far) and am at 150 pounds, 5"6, am an autist
I lost all that weight from a calorie deficit. I didn't exercise so I'm still unhealthy. Anyway, of course my childhood obesity barred me from going through a lot of normal formative experiences all while kind of fucking me up in other areas. No self-esteem, no idea how to treat cute guys that flirt with me so I reject everyone or play Misses Frigid. It's hard to reconcile your life and age when you basically have the communication abilities of a robot that can't compute how to be a human being.

>still undisciplined; I know what I should do for my future (unlike a year ago), but only do it half the of time
Okay. So, I consider this a necessity, or I won't be happy in the future. That's it. But because of the lack of guidance in my childhood and the lack of challenge (I aced all my classes and got awards with minimum effort) I grew into a lazy sheep. I don't always practice or self-study like I should. I feel so tired and seem to almost always be infinitely procrastinating. When I read that I feel like a monster, a monster gobbling up all my dreams, and I'm afraid, of my habits, of my stagnancy, of my lack of velocity.

I feel stressed out right now and don't know how to overcome the obstacle that is me. What should I do?

Hey so last Friday I was at a party, and I am a virgin. While I was there there was a thicc qt that was flirtinf with me. I didn't end up making a move for two reasons. First the cops busted the party, but also I don't like this girl or anything and have feeling for this other girl. I didn't want to lose my virginity to a hoe. My friend says I'm making a big deal out of it, and should've at least asked for her number. I just don't think I would've enjoyed it or be satisfied if I didn't do it with someone who I atleast liked a bit. What do you guys think?

I honeslty would feel empty after, mostly because I'm infatuated with this other girl. I don't know what to do in terms of this sometimes. Sometimes I think "Screw her I'll find someone." But I can't seem to develop these feelings for other girls, then again maybe I should engage other girls more, but it's going to take a while before I find anyone that would make my heart beat faster.

I can't separate myself from my best friend who is lesbian. I am crazily in love with her, she's the only thing on my mind everyday and it lasts for more than a year now. The more time we spend together the happier we are and the more it hurts me. We spent this whole past weekend together and it was the best time I ever had in my life. She just makes me happy so much and the thought of us not spending our whole life together just tears my heart up. I'm in college and I'm friends with lot of people but no relationship comes even near to what I have with this girl. You may say oneitis but she's seriously everything that I ever looked for in a girl. We sleep together sometimes I cuddle up to her, but even her laying her hand around me is a rare occasion.

I know that we never will be together, I realize that, but it's just fucking hard. She doesn't talk much, is intelligent and the cutest girl you ever has seen. We are both kinda introverted and both can just spend time next to each other not saying a word just enjoying each others presence. She loves me. As a friend. Told me that she never believed that she could love anyone just like that, unconditionally.

She's the only thing in the entire world that makes me happy. I know that the more time I spend with her the more it will hurt when she'll find someone but I just can't help myself. I don't even care about other girls. I'm blindfolded. Fuck this fucking life.

Entering 12th grade, not underage.
I have no idea what to study after this, I have consulted my parents, their friends, my older friends. I am at the top of my class, honor roll every year.

I don't want to study some meme field like IT, Economics, Psychology and etc.
I know that Law relies on connection and it's ''dirty'' aka immoral in some instances.

I am interested in medicine but I think that I will absolutely fail the entry exams and won't have time to prepare if I've studied just a year for them.

I want to do something that will at every point in my life feel fulfilling. I don't want to look back and be able to say ''I could do something more useful''

How did you decide what to study? Any tips?

you can always take a year off and work. then make your mind up theres no rush.

>>18485826
Trial and error will determine your career or even if you attend college. Just go into a general field of interest. If you like science and law go to a state university. You can always transfer later if you don't like the school.

You're panicking for no reason, play by year and take life as it comes. Not everything always goes to plan.

Let's say your social network has slowly died since high school. It's 10 years later and you don't really interact with anyone outside of work anymore. Where do people start socializing at this point? Where do you meet people? I just want to find a wife but it seems impossible to expand the net at this point. Tried internet dating (OKCupid, POF) and that got me nowhere over the last six years. Without going to church is there some other route I can go to find someone decent? Any ideas?

What's wrong with feminists?

>>18485821
bait
>>
>>18485779

wanting a wife is taking what most people consider a very romantic concept and turning it into a basic business transaction.

if romance is supposed to be special than how can specifically looking for a wife be special?

another problem is you already know the answer, church, but you are too good for church but too good for normal girls and are expecting a magical third option.

conservative girls are like anyone else. they're everywhere. if you go out and interact you'll find them. they may be more rare, especially at 28 cuz most of them would have already settled down by now.

Whats ur experiences with anti depressants is it worth it?

I have a short fuse, they help with it. A lot.

I posted in the scuicide thread same info-
Back when I was going to off myself I decided to try and get better.

I took Prozac to get myself on track back when I wasn't eating, couldn't get out of bed, and didn't even bother showering for days. Really bad depression- I wanted to die.

I took it long enough to start keeping up good habbits like exercise, healthy diet, and getting regular sunlight.
The doctor said once you start you have to stay on for almost ever and that's fucking bullshit.
I know these are meds made my companies trying to get you hooked and paying- but I needed the seratonin boost in my brain if I was going to get better.

Research SSID's and how they work.

I took it long enough to maintain being healthy and happy for about 2-3 months, then quit.

You'll get a depression drop for like 2 weeks but if you hang onto all your good habbits and exercise you'll come out fine and much better than before.
I first attempted scuicide at a very young age and have been chronically depressed my whole life for no good reason.
( I did have very good reason to be depressed when I started the Prozac however)
I'm the happiest and healthiest I've been all my life now at 27 years old. It's been 4 years since I hit rock bottom and I still take prozac sometimes.
It takes about 2-3 days to feel the effects and I only use it for about a weeks time- I don't feel the depression dives anymore when I hop off either.

Hope this helps!

been on sertraline since march and this has been the result so far
>no longer contemplating suicide
>motivation has augmented itself enough that I now can feel like starting and doing things again
>no longer feel like the miserable secret of life's true pointlessness is exactly true, or, rather, I just don't think about it, which eased up my existential crisis by a hell of a lot
>no longer have sudden lows where I end up crying for hours

The not so good part about it are the side effects like major derealization, but that eventually disappears.
That aside, in my case, antidepressants still haven't cured my trouble getting up in the morning where I just feel miserably tired and can barely keep my eyes open, but then, I don't a lot of people who take antidepressants face this shitty ass curse.

Long story short, they're definitely worth it if you feel like you've hit (or are about to hit) rock bottom and can't get your shit together med-free.
