I have no idea what to do. Basically I asked a long time friend of mine out several months ago and got the answer of no.

I figured it was to spare our friendship or it was because she was gay (she's only dated females). However, she's fallen for this guy who also is her friend up at college.

I thought I'd be find with it and handle it maturely, but she keeps posting song lyrics and poems - all of which are eating my heart out.

Clearly it wasn't to spare our friendship because she's been friends with this guy. So basically I've accepted that I'm ugly.

What should I do if anything? I don't want to be a monster, but my heart and mind are being consumed by this.

Stop ghosting and just be upfront about it preferably face to face.

Currently I am back at her home state where as she's off at college so it'd have to be over messages.

I graduated a few years ago and both of us are trying to land our dream jobs, coincidentally, in Cali so I don't think it's a matter of future planning.

She's not gay, she only told you because she didn't want you to be mad at her.

Just follow your feelings anon, stop talking to her, and if she ask why, you tell her you want to say something in person, and then you say everything you feel, but without touching her or acting pretendious. Then you say good bye and block her from every media, making sure she knows you don't want to see her again. You wouldnt be a monster, you would be a human, that has his own feelings and dignity.

uick backstory on my relationship, I hope I'll put in everything that's relevant, if something is missing please ask:

I'm 25, my gf is 20, we met two years ago, starting out as a long distance relationship. 8 months forward her dad died (which was her last family member) and I offered her to move in with me (she was still at school during that time). We had a bit of a rough time, I took the summer off work but we made it work.


This spring she got dected with a disease that is treatable but not curable (MS). It was again, a really rough time, we spent most of our time in hospitals/at doctors and I had to take care of everything, since she doesn't speak the language here. Her psychological state also got much, much worse (she was already depressed before her dad died, now she's borderline suicidal.) In the last few weeks she got better, but she is still popping a few xanax or drinking on most of the days.


Anyway, despite the huge responsability that got dropped on me that I am NOT used to (I am not irresponsible, but used to just work and play video games), she was also acting pretty mean to me. I swallowed it most of the time, since she has been through a shitton, also breaking up wasn't even possible, because she doesn't have a job or money and would never be able to make it on her own. Also her constantly being depressed started getting to me, it is hard to describe, but having someone around you 24/7 that is misearble is tough, especially if you love that person and you have to see her suffer. I also had to be home pretty much 24/7, especially when the doctors changed her medication.

2/2

I gave her an ultimatum 2 weeks ago and since than she really changed. She helps me a lot around the house again and is really nice torwards me. However, I am still acting completely cold, treating her like a roommate. I have no idea why. For example, we lay on the couch, I know cuddling up to her and kissing her on the forehead would make her happy, but something inside of me doesn't want to.

Spending time with her still somewhat feels like a chore, although there is no logical reason for it. Same with sex, I am horny and so is she, but I just do really NOT want to have sex with her. What is wrong? She is really attractive and exactly my type. I do still love her and she is a wonderful person. But I am just NOT capable of showing her any real affection anymore. Even making out feels like a chore that I sometimes used to "endure" to prevent future drama.

When I explained my feelings to her like in those posts, she suggested that I see a therapist and started pushing it. I do resent the idea, I don't really know why, because maybe she's right. But in my head it's like: "I always was happy with my life until she fucked my shit up, why should I waste my money and time now on a therapist". Which is true, until a year ago I was an extremely happy and joyful person, even though my life pretty much consistet of work and playing vidya with my friends, I loved it.

Does anyone have a guess what it could be? I would really appreciate any input.

How do people survive? I'm moving to university in a couple of days but I'm scared to death about having to live and survive on my own. I'm going to have to find a job or else I'll be broke in a matter of months.

>How do people survive?

Please, please, pleasepleasepleeeease don't become one of those asshat roommates that don't know how to fucking breathe without their parents CPR'ing them

Basic things aren't actually very hard. You'll find that some things will come to you without thinking about it, just cause youve seen it done so much already.

I'd recommend utilizing the few days you have to prep yourself a little by observing how things are done around the house. For example, ask your mum to show you how to use the washing machine; tell you general tips/principles regarding washing (separate colors; pay attention to temperature, how often to wash sheets etc). Do the same for dishes and things like that.

I once had a flatmate that took my grandma's 70 year old crystal glass and make scrambled eggs in it in the microwave. Yeah. Don't do shit like that.

Do your chores and pay your bills on time. Don't be 'that guy' that ruins flat harmony

For everything else, depending in your relationship with your parents, you can just call them and ask. Same with your roommates if they're nice and seem to already know stuff. Apart from that, there's Google and Wikihow. Really, you're using the internet right now to post. There isn't much domestic stuff to do around the house that's any more complicated than that. It's just a matter of experience and intuition, which will come fairly quickly.


Don't sweat it kiddo, you're going to do just fine

Hey guys I need help with getting psychiatric care in the usa without benefits, or at the most get some form of help.

Long story short, I've always had problems with paying attention and remembering things. It's so bad to the point that if someone talks to me, anything and EVERYTHING can distract me, it's so bad I can't deal with it anymore. On top of that I can't remember anything for shit, the minute I put something down (like car keys, or phone) I IMMEDIATELY forget it. I also have issues with words not being what they are at first glance before I have to make multiple double takes ( I may have dyslexia).

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Depending on where you live, there might be some non-profits that offer services for free or on a sliding scale. If you live in area where there are colleges or universities, some offer free counseling or mental/behavioral health services that are administered by supervised interns (usually students who are about to earn graduate or doctoral degrees) in that field.
>>
>>18717773
If you're in school/uni or under some age cut-off, you may still be covered by your parents' insurance.

If you're in school/uni your health service probably provides some free therapy/counselling.

If you work for a big corporation or belong to a union, they may offer free services.

You must entice her to make the first move.

Look up a youtube video on how to properly lick beef flaps. Then have it open at your work computer at all times so when she walks by your cubicle, she'll notice and understand that you are a caring, passionate lover.

Get a bunch of cash, small bills and crumple them up. Casually drop them out of your pocket whenever you are around her, that makes her realize that you are wealthy and an able provider for a family.

Finally, when she's at home cooking or cleaning or whatever shit females do, set her garbage on fire. Then as she runs out in sheer panic to look at the fire, rush in with a fire extinguisher and douse the flames.
That will teach her that you are well prepared and brave, able to defend your future offspring.

After that, mating is inevitable but while you do it make sure that you are on top. Females that try to climb on top of you are testing your dominance and you want to shut that shit down quickly.

War PTSD or fake PTSD? Because real PTSD is your body and mind trying to prepare itself to survive a warzone by replaying the experiences you most fear and least understand.

TlDR: filling in for two people and one of the managers is giving me a hard time.

>Be engineer at medium size foundry
>Maintenance Manager has 2 weeks off
>Maintenance 2ic calls in sick on the first day of Maintenance Managers Holiday
>Called in sick every day since
>Told me today he won’t be back till the Maintenance Manager is back
That put me in charge of 8 people with lots of admin and planning shit to do.
On top of that:
>Massive sand casting project on the go
>Production is well behind
>Sand mould failed and spilled metal everywhere so more paperwork to do
>Furnace breakdowns so debugging to do
>15hr days for the last week
Foundry Manager has been yelling at me about production being behind scheduled and machine break down. He was threatening me with court action over health and safety. He’s acting like a right cunt, to the point where I’m about to snap and walk off site or smack him in the mouth.
I don’t know what to do.

2 things

You prioritize
You delegate

And then you need to be assertive towards the manager and tell him you are in wayyyy over your head and you need help

The administrative shit can be shelved for the time being, most comanies don't file stuff until the end of the month
The planning and executing shit is NOW and needs your attention.

Fuck the paperwork, you are acting boss now, you need to lead, not to read

Once again I have copped a 30 day Goybook ban for pointing out that the sudden influx of 'trans' people are either attention seekers or truly ill and need psychiatric help.
That coupled with the standard of televisual entertainment is a race to the bottom, and the radio is not far behind. Though our modern life is wrapped around the consumption of digital media, who do I go around removing myself from it? The smart phone has gone, that was easy, but here is my conundrum, though my kid is banned from TV/Vidya during the week he is allowed to play at the weekends due to family arrangements, and also with Goybook the missus uses it to keep in touch with family and all that stuff. Do I just remove myself for now, or go all in and remove the whole family from its insidious influence?

You sound like a paranoid schitzo who is going to ruin his entire family's lives over something none of them care about except you.

They are going to get involved in the world one way or another. They dont need you to play policeman.

Remove yourself if you're that uncomfortable, but the know that the world isnt going to conform to your views. Instead of of secluding yourself in your own hugbox and echo chamber, maybe actually learn what "tolerance" really means and how to function like a decent human being.

Start weaning yourself off of it until you're only checking Facebook etc once or twice a day.
Make it a pain in the ass to use. Uninstall the mobile app so you have to use the shitty browser version, then delete your saved passwords so you have to type it in every time. Don't browse or share anything, just check your notifications and messages.

So I've been dating my gf since the end of may now(we didn't meet for 3 months because we're international students and we returned home) and its not been the relationship I have expected and I'm really worried. Ever since we went on our first date, she's always postponed our later dates(we met per 1-3 weeks), makes constant excuses that she's busy with internship/work/studying/friends, and unless I contact her, she acts like I dont exist. She has only contacted me herself around. Many times she said that she had no free time, I saw her posting snaps of her partying all night. Its not that I'm against this, but it seems likemeeting her bf is the least of her priorities. The thing is that she's warm when we meet and we cuddle and kiss more and more after each time we reunite(she still hasnt let me kiss her with the tobgue though, which is also worrying given how much time has passed).

I'm wondering how I should go about convincing her that we should hang out more often, since I a relationship in which we meet at most every 2 weeks is unfeasable for me.

Is she trying to distance herself from me?
