Either get busy living or get busy dying

>get busy dying
Sounds like a plan if I didn't get the attention

>>18306287
Wrong question.

The right question is how to beat depression.
>dont pretend you are happy
>seek help from parents, friends and doctors
>be honest with them and dont hide your weaknesses
>hope for best

>>18306266
>sound so serious and so formal
That is not a bad trait. If anything, they feel dumb themselves by not reaching your level in communication.

Dont pretend to be as retarded as them. If they try to shit talk about how you type, simple tell them you wish they would get on your level. Or maybe stop texting with immature dumb kids.

Poorly, very poorly. I have a hard time communicating with people, I tend to freeze up and say nothing. This makes me look like I don't care.

>>18306317
That's the problem. I'm only 20. Where i live it's difficult to find non-dumb people from my age. I'm no genius, but it's hard to communicate with people from my age around here because of that.
>>18306330
Same. I just go with ''What do they expect me to say?''. Or if someone says ''Hey, wanna be friends?'', i just kept silence. What should i have said? I don't know. It's really confusing(to the people lurking, yes, i know the automated answers. But in my mind i do wonder what i really should say, rather than the answers i trained myself to say).

>>18306232

How common is this? I mean, that's not normal, to be insulted everyday. Is it always the same person?

Mention the first thing they could be insecure about. Big nose? acne? small eyes? ugly? fat? high pitched voice? smell weird? a woman?

after a while you'll be able to figure out what you would come back with at a person before they even say something to you

Its not every day, two things have happened within the last month and i overthink this shit and cant drop things.
The first was a girl having a go at me for riding on the pavement, i went up onto it for 20 seconds to let cars pass, she turned the corner and as slow as i was going she never looked up and walked into me, she got mad that i was on the pavement, i just rode off and felt i should have at least toldnher to chill the fuck out.

Then today at work a guy i had never seen before, i got in his way it was hardly an issue yet as i walked off he mumbled "i should fucking kick you in the face for that" hes tone was pretty serious and i pretended not to hear, yet moments later i knew i should have asked him to speak up, he would hsve either kicked my ass and got fired over literally nothing, or would have pussied out and i wont feel like such a wimp now.

>>18306148
I would put it down. But it is not my dog.

>>18306188

99% of the repsonses in other threads tell me im bad for that thought, but it feels nice just to know someone else has the same mindset.

i keep reading how they often get depressed after losing two eyes, and she has such a hard time having fun as it is, interaction is her only joy in life and i work so much

do you have any dogs or pets at all?

Was she born with no eyes? Did she lose them? Is she in pain? It might make you sad or uncomfortable to see it, but if she's healthy and happy and pain-free, there's absolutely no reason for her to be put down other than to make yourself feel better.

Be supportive and try not to treat it like the end of the world. One day's relapse is not the same as falling back into something completely, don't let him beat himself up because that sort of attitude is why breaking the cycle of addiction or starting any other changes in your lifestyle can be so hard. Today's a new day, and a new chance for him to do well.

Find out what happened and let him talk, why did he relapse, what made him want to, is this something that's been going on for a while? How can you help?

>>18306139
Day at a time, I guess. Fact that he has sponsers should mean this remains a blip, and not a full ongoing relapse.
You shouldn't need to heap blame on him either, he'll be putting enough on himself for the both of you - just make sure he gets to whatever NA meetings or other such addict therapy tonight and ongoing, it has evidently worked well to date.
Day at a time.

I have no intention to get on his ass about it. Our parents always handled his addiction really poorly so I feel like I need to try to be both supportive and try not to sound condescending. My main concern is our other roommate and landlord said he'd kick him out right away if he ever started using again and he found out about last night. He'll probably have to move back with my parents and they're in Colorado while we're in California. I'm also just antsy sitting around on a Thursday not working and just waiting for him to wake up.

>how can you help?
Well he's been borrowing money from me for the past two months and other people have told me he owes them money too. He's like $2000 in debt and that's just money owed to people he knows personally. I guess I can help financially but even I'm going through financial problems.

Elaborate.

>>18306132

First of all, board is 18+, so I bet you shouldn't be here.

Ok? Now, that's school dude. You write the paper she wants, get a passing grade, and move on with life.

>>18306135
I live in Mississippi and their Sex Ed is literally just propaganda for 'staying abstinent until marriage' We have to make posters to put around the school about it but I don't hold that belief, nor do I want to support advice that doesn't work, as seen by the teen pregnancy rate in Mississippi. The posters are also for a grade but as stated, it doesn't align my beliefs and I don't want to support this awful advice.

use shaving oil instead of foam or gel if you have sparse growth or shave every day or every few days. much better, cleaner and cheaper shave overall. comes in tiny bottles. a few drops do the job. well worth it.

>>18306018
I used a soap bar

>>18306012
Two blades max. Any more than that and the leading blades just get dull and pull.

They're cheap so switch out every week. Store brand is fine. This isn't complex surgery.

I like gel shave creme. Stays wet longer. Foam dries up too fast.

>>18306004
>violence won't work
That's where you're wrong. 90% of fights it doesn't matter who's stronger. Take the initiative and attack him before he does anything again. Go for the balls, the eyes or the throat. If your first strike fails or he isn't on the ground, move on to the next weak point or repeat until he is. Don't say anything, and just leave afterward.

>>18306117

You want him to get his ass beaten back? THe dude has a couple homies, right? Guess who wins, even in a surprise attack: The lone dude or the gang?

>>18306004

Yeah, word of advice: There's not insult powerful enough to change things. You are not gonna insult him so hard that he leaves you alone. Ignore him and defend yourself enough to make it a hassle for him to target you, and he should get bored and moveo n to someone else.

>>18306126
If, as per the OP, the bully is a wannabe his homies won't be tight. Fair chance they'll abide while the guy gets his, they should know it's coming.
But it does place some constraints on how far you take it. No grounded kicks, etc..

>>18305985
Oh, dear! A 17 year old girl's parents are acting like parents! What is the world coming to?

Obviously they either have something against you or are punishing her for some other infraction. Find out what it is, offer the strongest case you can make against it, and accept their judgment.

Five weeks is not a very long time.

move on and find another girl, you're 18

>>18305985
>What do I do?
First, you stop throwing the word "cuck" around at everything you don't like regardless of context because doing so makes you look like a fucking child.

Second, you stop worrying about it because what you're describing is not a girlfriend, it's a fuckbuddy. If you can't enjoy a phone conversation with one another, you don't have a very good emotional relationship. Her parents sound excessively and unreasonably controlling to me, but you've got no choice but to deal with it (not least because your girl is still legally underage and you aren't).

>>18305916
5 people at once? I wouldn't touch that with a 10ft pole but i bet you could find some usless cuck out there?
Some may find that hot i guess but personally I've never had anything to do with orgys. They don't excite me and seem like a disseas waiting to happen.

>>18305916
Hell no. If you want orgies find someone who wants them to and orgy togather

>>18305916
Orgy, yeah I guess. Gangbang's a fuck no tho, so, needs to be a certain amount of poon in the equation. Over 50% would be preferred.

Enjoy your hand for the rest of your life

>>18305844
I can't have children with my hand silly burger

>>18305843

Even is he likes you, he clearly doesn't have time for you. So either way, I'd say let this one go. Either he is trying to have this end, or he just can't handle a relationship right now.

>>18305727
prepare ur anus for penetration

Is he cute?

>>18305789
No he wants me to fuck him. But I've only been with women up until now. What do I do? Do I treat him like a dude or like a woman? I really like him but this is my first with a man.

>>18305690
If she's trying to show off to piss you off, tell her you want nothing to do with her and cut contact again, don't be so weak willed

>>18305690
Move on dude, don't talk to her.

>>18306286
Im not talking to her. I just wanted to know why she contact me again

I think your boyfriend is a bit of a dickhead, Anon
