Apart from the feynman technique and the holistic learning method, which ways you find yourself studying efficiently?
inb4 i'm a lazy scumbag who wants shortcuts, yes that is partially true, in a 20 80 rule way, so don't be a dick and share your precious infographs, pdfs, texts and everything helpful really
I am monitoring this thread for such info as well.
Best way for me:
Get a book:
1)go thru what it is about
2)open chapter
2.1) read chapter subtopics and look at pictures to understand what theyre gonna write about.
3) read chapter fully
4) write summary without book, then compare summary to chapter and insert key words if you missed some points.
Review summary same day in the evening, once the next day, once next week, once per month.
If you really want to enforce the information consider using "chain / link technique" to memorize key words or " russian doll", but it is very slow unless you really put an effort to teach your brain visualization.

Ive tried taking notes, feynman technique etc. but they really slow you down.
Imho. feynman technique should only be used when you dont understand what you are reading, and should not be done during the first reading. Only after chapter is read and you dont understand whats going on.
My girlfriend and I often find ourselves wanting to do lewd things, but without any comfortable enough place to do so. We are almost never alone at eachother's houses so it is out of the question there, especially because of my paper thin-walls. How can we solve this?

Do you live near a forest? If so

How does one obtain drugs like LSD and/or Amphetamine or something top tier?? I know people with weed, so do they have connections?? I want to experiment is all. I need your thoughts and solutions please /adv/
Kill yourself now, it's cleaner than getting hooked on meth or smack and drawing it out over a few years.
>>18282392
Idc about being clean, I just care about results
>>18282392
meth=/=amphetamine, retard
>I know people with weed, so do they have connections??
why dont you ask them or their connections?
Is it wrong to have a child just to take care of you?
Like, if I have 3 kids but only one is obedient, is it fine if I turn my youngest son into my personal butler? He's never going to turn out into anything; he already fucked up getting into my union and I don't care what he wants to be later. That's none of my concern.
>>18282381
Yes, that is horribly, horribly wrong, I'm actually really disgusted by just reading this. No one "owns" their children.
If he lives with you, you can have him clean the house to pay his rent? It seems like bullshit now but when you're old you might not be able to get around so well, and he will already be used to the routine.
>>18282427
So it's fine? He does; 25 with no job, no qualifications and I'm 62 with growing cataracts. The way I worded it in the first post sounds bad, but we're just trying to be reasonable here. Anyone could imagine someone young reading this and thinking, "wow, you planned to use your kid from the start?" The answer is no. He had his chances.
How do you date when you have a really amazing ex?
I feel like no one else is bland in comparison. It has been two years and I'm still stuck.
>>18282373
I want to know this as well
>>18282373
seek therapy. recognizing their human flaws also helps.
>>18283392
>seek therapy.
Already do.
>recognizing their human flaws also helps.
I do recognise he has flaws, but even his flaws work well with mine. Highly compatible.
Been falsley accused of rape in the uk and the person doing it is a spiteful ex of two years, saying i raped her while bedbound from surgery two years ago. ive sent screens i found to the police of her around that time literally saying she just does it to get me in shit, will this be clear enough evidence her word cannot be trusted? right now its her word vs mine from two years ago, and i want this to be proven false so i can get my phone back
Screens can be tampered with, not sure how seriously they are taken
This case seems like it'll be strictly a case of your word against her, so your best bet is to find witnesses that can attest that you're a good person, and ones that can attest she is a terrible one. What will give validity to either of your statements will be how easy it is for the lawyers / judges to find shit on you.
Does two years exceed the statute of limitations in the UK?
Who took your phone? What screens? I assume the alleged rape happened many times in a private place? If she had no sign of violence done to her it would be hard to prove. Why come out after 2 years the officials would question. My biggest fear in your place OP would be that it goes to trial and somehow in brexitland you get registered as sex offender during it all.
Also OP and other guys. Do. Not. Stick. Your. Dick. In. Crazy. Repeat it one more time!
what's the difference between healthy suspicion and paranoia?
The first you can put a side when/if necessary, the latter will consume your thoughts.
its only paranoia if you're a faggot
trust me, i work at a pharmacy
You don't know until you were proven right. Just don't act on your suspicions until you are sure.
I read stories on both 4chan and reddit about long-term gfs betraying their bfs so often it seems like these days it's so common.
I can't chill when my gf is around other men and it's consuming me, I also feel like snooping her phone all the time but I think that's not right
>>18282143
there's probably a reason you're worried.
The one girl I loved the most cheated on me 5 years ago. I've realized having ONE (1) gf in 2017 is the dumbest thing one can do with the current situation in the western society. I now have 3 and no belief in love. I'm happier than ever and my life is going great. Now I don't care if they cheat, I'll just dump em and get a new girl. This is the natural order.
>>18282143
Bad things just happen. There's nothing you can do about it. Stop worrying and deal with it if it happens.
>>18282152
Do they know you have 3 gfs? Also how did you do it?
/adv/ I need your advice!
A little background on myself: I am an introvert beta cuck but that does not know how to start a conversation but can maintain a conversation if am I the one being approached. Here goes my story:
So there was this girl to introduced herself to me. We exchanged names. We talked to each as if we already knew each other. I felt a connection. She added me on FB and started a conversation. After a month or so, or chats were very frequent from once a week to everyday (we had different work shifts). After a month or two I had the courage to ask her out and she said yes and seemed interested to go out with me. On the day of the date, we both had so much fun.
I need your advice adv as because now I am the one starting the conversation but she kept replying with one liner sentences instead of her keeping the conversation up. What happened /adv/? Should I still pursue the this or no? I really like her and I think she's interested in me based on the first few weeks of talking in fb and our date?
I am sorry if this is kinda long. I just really need someone to talk to.
>>18282104
Seems like she senses you're into her and doesn't feel the need to try. Play it cool and stop initiating conversations. Have her come to you, the dynamic of a girl taking you for granted and acting like this is no bueno imo
>>18282109
I'll try. Last week before our date she's the one starting conversation early in the morning which is the end of her shift and the time I wake up. She rants about something the other day and sends funny videos which really makes my day. But now I see her online in facebook and try to start a convo but she doesnt even open the chat box or she just replies with a one liner answer. Did I do something wrong. This really feels so awkward for me and I think for her. How do I feel less like shit man? Should I just accept the fact that she saw something in me that made her think I suck as a person?
How do I develop some personality?
What kind u want senpai
>>18282096
Do different things. Go out, try different food, read different books, travel to different places. The more variety you have in life, the more diverse experiences, you'll have, and the more potential you'll give yourself for developing personality.
>>18282106
I want to be more socially awesome, more self confidence, smarter, more impressive, a better flirt...
Currently I'm a nice person, light-hearted and sometimes funny. But I wanna be more than that.
I got really close and intimate with a girl about a year ago while me and her were talking, it was great and I fell crazy hard for her I mean hard. We talked for awhile but it was an awkward time for both of us, I'm not just saying that either it was pretty mutual. It didn't work out right away because of her and school and me and the military etc. bad timing. so we kind of went our seperate paths. She went away out to college and I remained in the area because it's where I'm stationed (In the Navy). I always regretted it. She's coming back now and told me a month ago and again last night how she wishes things never stopped between us and how often she thinks about me and misses me and how she would have stayed with me and so on and so forth and how she knows I'm headed back home in a little over a month because I'm nearing the end of my contract and being honorably discharged. She said she wants to spend as much time with me as she can and enjoy the time I have here and not focus on me leaving or worry about that issue until we have to, but is hinting at something more? Do I just hook up with her and have a nice time until I leave maybe to never see her again or do I go for it and try to get her? I have a month do you guys think that's enough time to convince her to try a long distance relationship, or to even move down with me seeing as how she has family where I live? The risk in trying something more is I run her off maybe it's not what she wants, idk what I should do. Any suggestions? Should I just get that one last passing hookup? It's weird cause I honestly feel like I may even love her, which I know sounds crazy and it is especially crazy for me. Always been the type to enjoy hookups and flings more than relationships. Not the case with this one, This girl is so beautiful, sweet, gentle, and innocent. Different from nearly every girl I've ever talked to. I want her bad, I know I can't tell her I feel that strongly but I want to get her so one day I can.
Op here, fyi she's done with college now.
>>18282083
Long distance relationship ain't gonna end pretty, anon I won't advise on doing it. I'd say just go hook with her so you could be decisive on what would you do with her after.
>>18282741
You don't think that'll hurt my chances of turning this into something more do you? Or will it help? I'm not sure.
What to talk about with grills on first date?
I'm 18, she's 17 and we're going to go eat I guess.
I knew her before and we used to chat sometimes so stuff like describe yourself etc are out, right?
Thanks bros
>>18282082
Let the conversation flow naturally. Tell her about what you're passionate and care about. People tend to light up and draw interest when the other person knows you give a shit about something. If you don't have any passions talk about hobbies or what you find interesting. Ask her about herself and find out what shes passionate about. There are some questions that help you really get to know someone. If you google this you should find a large list. These are pretty good for cutting through the bullshit. If you're still at a loss consider talking about:
movies
current events
poetry
other forms of art
sports (if shes into that)
mutual friends
funny stories
embarrassing things that have happened to you
pets
anything
>>18282088
Thanks bro, anything else?
>>18282102
you know her better than I do so only you can answer that
I dont mean to sound like this but what are guy's problem
>I'm pretty (in my opinion)
>I'm really funny
>I have great taste in music
>I have a nice body (well from what i've been told)
Why cant a guy like me, or stay liking me. Like i said im really funny and im pretty, I can be funny and serious when needed.
Are the guys i talk to get bored easily and do they do that to every girl then?
What other qualities am i missing?
>>18282073
Every fucking day a thread like this gets posted and every fucking day we say the same thing. Post a pic and we can tell you what might be wrong. There are some girls you fuck and chuck and others you settle down with. Although personality plays a large role so do looks. Without knowing what you look like we're just shooting in the dark trying to figure out what is wrong with you.
>>18282081
Fuck you im not putting my pic on here. You're lucky i gave you a description about myself go with that
>>18282087
Lmfao
>I think I'm pretty (opinion)
>I'm really funny (opinion)
>great taste in music (opinion)
>nice body (opinion)
Yea, I should be thankful you provided such concrete evidence that helps me assess and help your situation. Don't act like I should be indebted. Thats actually one reason as to why you can't hold down a guy. You're entitled and overvalue yourself.
Long story short
I'm 19 and my wife is 27 and we used to have regular sex, often multiple times a day
In the month of April we had sex 3 times
It feels like shes never in the mood, i always have to initiate, long foreplay and when it finally gets to it its always in the bed, missionary and honestly its getting boring
We used to do stuff all over the house and now she wont even give me a handjob
How do i get a decent sex life again?
>>18282064
3 times in one month is better than it is for some people, but I get what you're saying. How do you feel about seeing someone on the side, not for a relationship, but just for sex?
>>18282067
I wouldn't really consider that to be honest
>>18282068
Then you've got to talk with her about it. It's not reasonable to expect for things to change if you're not upfront with her about what you would like to be different.
Fuck counseling
Fuck anti-depressants
Fuck recreational drugs
Fuck meditation
Fuck joining a club
All of these generic answers people send me literally make me angry.
I don't have a release, so I post on here for help. I was smoking weed
to cope with depression and bitterness, but now that I'm home for the
break I've restrained myself. It sucks, I cry everyday, I just told my
older sister to shut up when she was interrupting me, so my weed
dependence is definitely causing irritability. What I need is a girlfriend, this ex of two years ago just lingers, and destroys me.
I am deadset, that this is the one thing I need in my life to be happy.
I know this, because whenever I start talking to a girl on OKcupid, or
Tinder, I instantly stop smoking weed all the time, and have an actual
motive to exercise, not be a miserable piece of shit. But dating sites
suck, I don't know if it's my personality, but they always leave.
TLDR I just feel so helplessly fucked, stagnant, lost in school 4 years and I've
lost my mojo, so I can't get a girlfriend like I want anymore.
>>18282060
>>18282060
>I don't know how to release
>What I need is a girlfriend
So which is it?
Have you actually even fucking tried counseling and anti-depressants? I feel like you haven't. And no shit recreational drugs just make things worse, anyone will tell you that.
>>18282219
Counseling and SSRIs don't work for everyone, anon. All a counselor does is repeat shit back to you, they really only help incredibly stupid people. And some people are depressed because of endorphin deficiency which there is no treatment for.
