I fucking hate my job. And its not just a mild dislike, I know work is supposed to suck to some degree, but Im constantly tired and miserable. My boss is constantly telling me to work overtime at the last second (I only had two days off this entire month so far) and its 12 hour shift work. He does this to everyone else to. I fucking hate this profession and all of my coworkers tell me I should get out of here the moment another job offer comes along. I have no time for my personal life, I hate my actual work, and my boss is a dickhead that has already tried to throw me under the bus for one of his fuckups and the management here is horrible. I know this sounds like me trying to deflect blame, but I had other top professionals tell me it wasnt my fault and to not let him pin the blame on me. Also, as of now, I have enough money saved up to pay for all of my bills for the next 7 months while also having a good bit of extra spending cash, so it wouldnt be like I would be fucked money wise if it takes a while to get another job. At this point, Im willing to work a less paying gig just because I hate it here so much.

I'm a fembot with no friends and I'm getting close to a normie. I'm worried that he'll find me too weird. I've revealed some stuff that makes me come off as different, but he doesn't know about 4chan, me being bi, having no friends, my fetish. What do I do?

I'm in my 20's as well as my bf. I am the only one paying for everything in our relationship. My bf doesn't work,he is always telling me he thinks certain girls are hot. Which makes me insecure, so I went through his phone history. I know you should never go through anyone's history, but like I said I'm insecure. He doesn't tell me he cares or likes me but he does tell me about other girls he likes and finds attractive. I found out he was only looking at other girls on threads and waiting for girls to post nudes. I told him what I saw and he's pissed am I in the wrong or is he? I just feel like I deserve some respect or something considering I support him financially.

Ps. Sorry if I mess up I'm new to posting.

>don't have a clue what I want to do afterwards

How do you figure out what you want to do / become in life? How do you go about understanding what your strengths and weaknesses are? I hate to say it but I really do envy people that have this stuff figured out at an early age because it helps so much. I'm tired of hearing people tell me "go out and just try different things". I've been doing numerous things all my life and nothing has really ever "clicked".

I think some people are just fucked in really knowing what they're good and bad at doing in life...

Thoughts?

Guys help please. Ok im a guy and I'm texting this other guy that's older. We've been talking a lot of text and hes awesome, like really awesome. I consider him my best friend but problem is that he thinks I'm a girl. I have np fucking idea why I made a name and just lied being a girl. We've talked for so long. He even says he loves me, he said he'd wait so I could visit him. And I trust him a lot. I gave him so many chances so he could screw me over but he didnt. Hes a genuine good guy, like awesome. Why the fuck did I fake being a girl? I'm literally a faggot. I'm not gay either. I want to meet him because I consider him my best friend but I also want to live up to his expectations. Please someone just help me, I dont know what to do....

My boyfriend hit me for the first time. Honestly everything was going good until about a month ago. A month ago I had asked him about his ex because he had completely shut down and started drinking alone and not wanting anything to do with me or his two children.
Admittingly I had ended up going through his phone and found out he was talking to her when I realized he was acting different., she had always been a big part of our relationship when it came to fights. We've been together for five years and so far I've caught him talking to her about 3 times. The first time was after we had been together for about a year and I had found out I was pregnant with my first child. I had told him to stop talking to her because I did not enjoy that he was talking to the woman who lost her virginity to. He agreed and stop talking to her. Until I realized he was starting to act differently probably about year-and-a-half later.
He starts acting really shady and making sure that he had his phone hidden 100% of the time. After one day when I was talking to him and he ended up messaging someone I looked over and realized that he was talking to his ex (different area code). I confronted him and told him about how bad it made me feel because I felt like she still had a hold on him, he stopped talking to her for the time being. He told me he deleted her number.
Until about a month ago when I realize he was acting differently, I had only went through his phone because he had spent a complete week just drinking and sitting outside completely ignoring me and his children. He got so mad at me because apparently I was violating his privacy. Even though I found this out on my own.
We had end up getting in a fight this most recently and he got mad at me because I was telling him not to throw bean bag babies at the TV because our son started to emulate him and try to destroy the TV with a bunch of toys he had on hand. He got mad at me for telling him how to raise his son.

I feel like most people I'm surrounded with are not ideal to compare myself with, I want to actually sit down and make progress with programming and computer science in general, in fact that's the carreer I've chosen in my local university (although I am in the first year), but I get too distracted with internet and videogames, my parents are annoying as fuck and get genuenly angry and offended at me for not doing things that only favor me, I want to be independent and am currently searching for a job in this fucking excuse of a country run by assholes who only think about their profit and not the general welfare (no solution to that as it is the most common mentality to have here). I don't doubt of my potential as I have a great capacity to learn, I (as many others here, I know) taught myself english, but I have recognized my problem, I am not having the correct mindset.

What is your opinion as to what mindset I should try to achieve?

Hi guys. You may remember me from a week ago.

I think my mom's dating a romance scammer or otherwise unscrupulous person who shouldn't be in our lives.

She met him in the Dominican Republic while on vacation a month ago. Now they're saying they want him to move in with us.

It's complicated so you can read my previous thread to get more information:

>>18442811

Here are some new concerns (old ones found in first thread), with him moving in:

>He's unemployable, so my mom will be financially supporting three people on a fairly modest income.
>I'm a 19 year old woman and the room my mom plans to make his is right next to mine and I will be spending 10 hours a day alone with him, 5 days a week, for who knows how many months.
>I'm in the process of trying to treat my mental illness, get a GED, get a job, get a dog, and move out (quitting work to raise the dog) and this situation stresses me out and means my mom has less time to help me.
>My mental illness is really complicated and even native English speakers have trouble understanding my needs and my illness.
>The boyfriend won't have a car, which is a necessity where we live.
>Housemate is stressed out about this as well. He's not mentally ill, but he's prone to anxiety and depression in response to stress. He's also working, getting a Master's degree, and planning to move out, also. Bringing the BF into the home throws a wrench into his plans and responsibilities and exacerbates his mental health just as it does mine.
>Family (me, my mom, housemate of 7 years who's basically my brother and her son) is totally fractured and will only become more strained if he moves in.
>And probably some other shit.

If this has happened to you, please explain. I don't understand how it happens to so many people. Just use birth control right?
