Guys I just finished my first year of uni and my cumulative GPA is 0.953
What do I do
I feel like giving up
I'm going to take a few summer classes and I'll probably transfer to a community college

You probably should go to a community college. GPA of less than 1 means you aren't going to college, you're just hanging out with friends for an excuse to go to parties. You aren't going to classes, and you aren't learning the material. Keep this up and you will screw yourself, and in 5 years you will look back at yourself and wonder what the fuck were you thinking when you went drinking instead of paying attention to your studies.
>>
How do you do that
>>
>>18303680

Is it because you're lazy or because you're stupid? The first is fixable, the latter not so much. If you've just been slacking off or had some problems in life, then work hard and you can still make it. If you're just shit at studying or simply dumb, then accept that it's not for you and find a trade that might suit you.

Hey /adv/ I find myself at a crossroads. I've been trying to enlist in the military for going on 7 months and the process is going irredeemably slow. I have to face the potential truth that maybe I won't be able to join the Army which brings to light the idea behind this thread. I don't want to be stuck in minimum wage hell so I was wondering what should I go to school for? What kind of jobs are on the rise and which degree should I get?

I'm your average twentysomething aimless NEET with nothing to lose. I'm open to trades as well. If you come up with anything please be specific as you can. Hopefully something comes of this. Thank you.

Dude we can't tell you what to do with your life.

You sound depressed, why don't you go do some generals at a community college and find a therapist?

At least those moves will get the ball rolling.
>>
>>18303672
Get some food, some porn, some movies, videogames, whatever, and take a break to not think too hard.

If I were you (dunno if you're depressed as other anon said, but I am) that's what I would do.

poepe just found out that two of my best frieds are lesbians and theyre dating, one of them want to break up because theyre getting bullied and i need advice right now

You don't need advice, they do. Don't make their problem about yourself. Be there if they need you, and chill.
>>
>>18303606

This doesn't even make sense. One of them is getting bullied? By who, the other one? Why does this make one want to break up if it's not the other girl?

What do you expect to do about this situation? Why do you care? How is this urgent?

These threads need more detail.

I'm an isolated, rather sketchy & shy guy, and to top that I've also been dealing with mild depression (ie: Cannot enjoy what I used to, feeling empty, etc etc). There's that girl I've been in love with, but she's told me she isn't in love with me. We stayed friends.

When I told my roomie that I would go to prom alone, he told me to try & ask that friend of mine, that he knew some people who'd gone to prom together without being romantically involved afterwards.

Should I ask her out for prom? It's been months since she's rejected me.

If she says yes and I go with her, won't it leave me even more wrecked afterwards when we part?

>If she says yes and I go with her, won't it leave me even more wrecked afterwards when we part?

Probably. Your best bet is seeing her less, not more. Also, you need to be 18+ to be ion this board. I'm not from the US, but I'm pretty sure "prom" happens before you can legally come here.

There are some people in my class that are 19. I'm above the age limit. Prom occurs at the end of the last year of high-school in my country.

Send a gift in the mail then. Tell him it must have gotten lost and just hope he doesn't check the date it was shipped when it gets there.

Alternatively, you could try apologizing and making it up by giving a nicer gift than usual.

One moment there's a tidal wave of interested women. Five or six will be interested, but thanks to several factors at play, I'll just walk away with one relationship that lasts several months. After that, the female interest is all dried up, and it's time to welcome years of staring at the ceiling and jerking off.

Why can't the potential matches be evenly dispersed, so that I don't spend most of my time alone?

I'm really dying of boredom here. Either tons of women are interested, or none at all are, and I'm starting to think it has more to do with chance than anything else. I'm in career training, not college, so that might explain the drought.

What can I do? I feel absolutely powerless when it comes to attracting women. They just come in their own wave, based on factors that have nothing to do with my actions.

Am I wrong? What the fuck can I do? I'm so bored that I'm becoming existentially depressed.

If you can attract girls, just try doing new things and meeting new people. Probably things already settled in your life and the girls interested in you found someone else or got to know you enough to decide you are not compatible. Try meeting new girls.

What do you like to do, dipshit? I'm not going to feed you a life, I'm tired of OPs here asking that. Pick a class, a club, go to the park, whatever it is you like. We can't micromanage every single aspect of your day.

I know this is unconventional for this board but I have some great advice for all of you. All numinous experience can be given a scientific or empirical explanation. It's up to you to take the signs and not Google them for verification! Peace and love

what do you guys have against being concise?

Please allow me to elaborate. When you see that your backyard is full of beautiful indigo flowers and only your backyard you can either believe your instincts that say you attracted them to you or you can Google why indigo flowers are only blooming in your tiny portion of grass.

I've decided to give online dating a try. I'm a kissless, handholdless virgin, so I figure what do I have to lose? Any advice?

What sites are good (or at least marginally better than the rest) right now?

Should I be looking at free services, or paid?

Dating profile tips in general? "do's and don'ts", first message advice, etc. etc.

I'm a social retard and going in with very low expectations, but I'll take whatever help I can get.

Yes get a good paying job and find some local hoes on Backpage. After seeing them for a while one should cling on to you if you treat them ok. Get a job you loser

Nice try shitposter-san, but I have a job.

It's in a warehouse, where there are no women. Hense the interest in online dating.

Low expectations make you smell weak,

The grills can smell weakness. Draw a line when it comes to standards and don't cross it.

Life has been garbage lately and suicide seems like a viable option. I can't seem to think of any reason to keep living, particularly because of the following:

>Politics looking extremely grim, parties more divisive than ever and it will likely only get worse, to the point where nothing will ever get done
>WW3 looking imminent
>Environment in serious danger and is looking like it is probably already beyond repair
>Many experts say humanity has only around 100 years tops to survive, so no real point in leaving a "legacy"
>Not smart enough to contribute to fix any of the above.
>Going to college currently in a field with very low success rates- won't go into detail but let's just say chances of me getting a job are slim
>No GF, no real chances of finding one, will likely die alone and a virgin.

Besides the obvious negatives of "hurting" the people around me, it seems to me that suicide is a fairly viable option right about now.

Death is inevitable. Unless every single moment of existence is unbearable suffering for you, I don't see the point in killing yourself. You might as well just live until you die on the off chance that something good happens.

It is heavily biased, but i think we are heading towards vr future where having sex wont be that good and easy compared to fucking your waifu.

Also porn will probably skew your view on sex and average female and male bodies. I suggest you to fap gently without porn once per day or less if you arent horny teen anymore.

Take care op.

I'm a 27 year old American and there's no hope for me here. I can't afford to leave and my solitary ambition of making a living as a writer is laughable at this point. I don't know what to do or how to cope with the horrifying realities that are multiplying each passing day.

How do I get a girlfriend if I don't have a college education and can't afford a car car? I've seen people do it, but I'm just baffled as to how.

In my age range (early 20's) it seems like a borderline requirement. For a lonely virgin working a dead end job (that doesn't really allow me much of a social life) just to make ends meet, living in a one bedroom apartment, and just looking for companionship, online dating is intimidating when every girl my age living at a reasonable distance away is bragging about their brand new college degrees first and foremost on their profile. I get it that it's what the majority of people are doing at this point in there lives, but I can't help but feel like a worthless piece of shit every time I even make an attempt to message someone. Couple that the normal social anxiety that I and most other faggots here have, and it usually ends with me getting depressed and giving up for another few months.

Where can I go to meet women in similar situations to me? Or at least women who don't care.

Is it just luck?

[spoiler]I'm the problem arn't I?[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Yes, I've considered the option of buying a car/going back to school. Not really a possibility, in the near future at least. For now, I'm stuck as an uneducated bike/bus fag.[/spoiler]

What do you do in your free time?
>>
>>18303398

Most nights I get off work, go for a jog (used to be a fat fuck, but then decided to stop being a piece of shit and dropped 40 lbs), cook dinner, fap, and go to bed. Occasionally add a movie, some video games, or a visit from one of my few remaining friends from high school.

Most of my weekends are spent working on an independent video game that I will probably never finish, but I don't look at it as anything more than a hobby that I can work on when I'm alone so whatever. As alluded to before, I really don't have much of a social circle so I really don't get out all that often.
>>
>>18303422

Ok, try joining a group for your jog. I don't know how they are called or how those people meet, but I've seen them in parks and I know guys that joined. Maybe join some other physical training activity near your house (in my city we have people that go to teach dancing or to help training. A lot of the participants are older people, but you can see young ones, too. And they are free.)

Instrad of watching a movie alone at home, join a movie club. Some may have a token admitance fee, but it's usually low if you go to an art center of some other left-leaning organization. No need to be political to join.

Basically, try to do whit with other people instead of being alone so much. THere are cheap options out there.

Is it true marriage is now a meme? I don't see myself ever getting married unless I decide to have children.
What are the upsides?
Would it be worth it with a prenup?

marriage is a trap
>>
>>18303377
It used to be kind of a protection against adultery, as it used to be illegal.
Now women can sleep around all they want, then divorce you over some bullshit reason and get half your shit.
I've heard prenups are easy to do away with too.

Seems more and more like a trap to me. Sad because I really want a wife and kids.
>>
it depens on what you make of it. marriage can be a disaster or a wonderful promise. and it stands or falls with the people involved. that means, if you are immature enough to marry an unworthy person, you pretty much brought this to yourself.
giving marriage a bad name because of stupid people who aren't able to keep up a stable and functional relationship is like saying science is bad because some morons use it to develope nuclear weapons.
there are good reasons to get married, and there are very bad ones. so if you consider marriage, make sure you know WHY you get married and why your partner gets married. and also check if you are both willing to not give up when slight inconveniences arise (a habit a lot of people have... not only when it comes to relationships) and seek help if you realize you aren't fit to sort shit out on your own.

A nice cologne is always a plus.

But realistically, you need to care a bit less about the opposite sex. That'll make them care more about you.
