I just got very scared. I'm 25 now, why haven't I had a baby yet?
Well, I have this idea that my parents are the type of people who would disown me if I got pregnant (especially before being married). So when I think "pregnant", I'm not happy about new life, instead I feel dreadful.
Also, I have a phobia-tier fear of pregnancy itself (what happens in the body), and the birthing process itself. I first got those fears when my mom talked about it when I was a kid in front of me. And it might've been contributed into by graphic movies about giving birth that'd be shown in the health class at middle school. Point is, I know it'll be painful & scary and I'm scared.
First I had to get my shit together, sort of. I had to be able to support myself, because if I cannot support myself, how can I support a husband and child? So I got into jobs so I'd have money. When I first got my job, I was in my early 20's, very late to be starting work. I just didn't know how to get a job, I had no guidance.
Then I just had to find a suitable mate. I needed to find the right man. This took many years in itself. It's not just a passing thought, I wanted someone compatible with me, whether we had kids or not.
I'm 25 now. I'm saddled with all sorts of bills (especially for my car), and just won't have the money for a baby for many years to come. In five years (I'll be 30) my car will be paid off, giving a little more wiggle-room regarding money. But the saddest thing is, I have no support network (the most important thing) to help me take care of a child. My family will not help (and probably won't want to, or can't). They're too busy talking care of my autistic brother (and I want them to). I have no network of female friends to help, but that's my fault.
Me and my partner also have to fit in "living together" and "marriage" before having a baby. I'd prefer to be married and end up not having kids, instead of having kids out of wedlock (being unmarried). And marriage can take money too.
Finally, will I even be a good parent? The odds are stacked high against me, in terms of how I grew up, what I did, even my very personality. Will being a parent even be a good idea, with my fear of childbirth? It will be very hard to support a child when I have no family support network (and don't know how to find one).
I just always thought that it's better to have a child when you're financially stable, rather than bring a child into poverty and hardship. I always thought it would've been the greatest gift to wait till me & my partner are ready, but now I see I've waited too long. It's not just about the money. It's about having help too, especially from family and friends.
So how do I make this work? Will I still be able to be fertile enough for pregnancy when I'm like 35? How would I go about getting help being a new mother?
>I have no support network (the most important thing) to help me take care of a child.
You have us
4chan is all anyone needs
Can't you just have a cheap wedding and live together with your partner now and have kids in a couple years?
Just focus on your career skills in the mean time. If current place has few jobs then move.
What hairstyle can i do if my hair is this long besides a simple tail , pony tail or just letting it like this? I'm a male btw (and i don't intend to look like a trap , i just look like shit with short hair)
Its around 33-35cm long btw
also it's messy because i woke up like 2 hours ago and I'm too lazy to comb it for now

Are you facing the camera in that photo?
Anyone here had implants to fix unsymmetrical breasts before?
I'm wondering if I should pay for my wife to get them, just don't want to end up making things worse.
And I've had cosmetic surgery on myself before anyone calls me a misogynist
Go for an assessment with a reputable plastic surgeon, don't consult Dr. 4chan.
>>18272588
I just wonder what user satisfaction is
Of course a plastic surgeon would say his product is great
I have some kind of weird, specific fantasy
The idea of getting fully naked in front of a girl, in a very casual and non-sexual way. It has to be a girl I know well. It's not even really a sexual thing; I don't think "yeah i'll get naked in front of her, then she'll suck my dick and we'll fuck", but it would be something like this, for example : I'm in a room with a girl I know, I tell her I have to change, I get fully naked without being awkward, I change and that's it. What turns me on is probably the reaction of surprise of the girl, and the fact that I would do it casually, without being awkward or anything. I'm pretty sure it comes from the fact I've always been extremely modest and scared of showing my body.
Anyway, I don't plan on actually doing it because in reality it would just be extremely awkward and stuff.
But the thing is, I have a gf. We're both virgins. We almost had our first time recently, although I couldn't get an erection because I was nervous, and I didn't really take off my underwear cause I was kinda scared of doing it. We were in the dark too, so we didn't really see each other's bodies.
Now I'm gonna spend a few days at her place soon, and we'll very likely have sex.
So I was wondering if it would be a good idea to realize my fantasy with her ? For example, I'd go take a shower, and come back in her room naked. I think it would be a good way to both achieve my fantasy while also "introducing" my naked self to her in a fun way (which would probably make me feel more confortable getting naked in front of her).
But I'm not really sure it's a good idea though ? I'm afraid it'll just be awkward. I know she wants sex and she's turned on by me, but I don't know if it would really work out. I don't even care if this doesn't directly lead to sex, and i just wanna get the naked thing out of the way while trying that fantasy.
What do you guys think of that ?
YES. DO IT OP. If you two were that close to having sex then do ittttt.... Just make sure the timing is right though
>>18272591
If timing is correct, it will work. It would most likely lead to sex if she has been craving that poon
>>18272591
>>18272595
Cool ! I knew it was a good idea, just not extremely confident about it.
For the timing, I was thinking first I would give her a massage to get her in the mood, then go take a shower and do it. I think it'd be nice. I don't wanna plan it too much though because i've realized most of the times things don't go exactly as you plan (sometimes goes even better than you planned) but that's pretty much the way I wanna do it.
Man i'm actually hyped for this kek
Hi. I'm just finishing my first year of college (undergrad) here in the USA and I've decided I want to study law in Switzerland instead of here. Does anyone know anything about that? Have I wasted all my money on tuition if I go? What do I do? I know I need to get my bachelor's as well as my law degree over there.
>>18272569
Why do you want to go to Switzerland? Is there a school there with a better law program?
>>18272572
It's cheaper and I want to live in Switzerland. I speak French fluently and love the tax rates.
No your credits don't transfer (this isn't unique to Switzerland though) yes you will start from scratch.
You can't get US Loans to study abroad in most cases and cost of living over there (plus tuition) won't make this much cheaper than the average US University.
So I'm dating someone who's a minor (2 year difference and he needs another year in order for us to have sex) and I have sexual needs.. so how do I know if a Asian massage parlor offers happy endings? Is there a way I can ask without being so blunt?
Would I consider this cheating? No, I would just be considered an asshole for using a "massuse" as a toy and not treating them as a human being, if you follow my logic here..
>>18272562
No, it's still cheating. You're going out of your way to have sexual relations with someone outside of your relationship.
>>18272560
Just do it with your partner jeeez
>be me
>get bf
>been dating for a month now
>end up finding his ex's fb
>tons and tons of pictures of the both of them kissing and handholding and mushyshit
>literally feel like i've been cucked right then and there
they're not even friends with each other on fb anymore but why would she still keep up all those pictures of him if they're over i mean is this something normies do because i always thought they burned everything that even reminded them of an ex
know i shouldn't think too much on this and maybe she keeps it up because she's still attached or whatever but fuck anons it really hurts to think she might try to get back with him or other shit which'll cuck me in the end pls give advice
makes me even more worried because seems like she lives in the same area/works at the same place as him while i live in a different city so we don't get to see each other everyday or as often as she gets to and man i just never hit it off this well with anyone so i'm so scared to have someone take him away
probably keeps them until she has something to replace them with so she won't have an empty album on her page. kind of dumb, but so is you obsessing over it.
advice: if you're the kind of person that gets all cooked up over stuff like this, you should probably just avoid stuff like this and not fb stalk your partner's ex's.
>>18272489
There are two reasons she has pictures of them together:
a) Like you suggested, she's still attached to him and is generally a crazy bitch (if the relationship ended a while ago). Don't worry about it. She's a crazy bitch and as such will not do anything significant.
b) She acknowledges the good times they had together and wants to remember them. This is okay. Props to her for being emotionally stable.
But more importantly, she's his ex, which means their relationship ended for a reason (probably many). If he's not an idiot he'll remember why things didn't work out between them and your relationship will be fine.

Pull out next time and start charting her ovulation cycle.
God knows we don't need any more people like you in the world.
Is it too late for me to get it right?
I'm a 19 M, been a freshman in college for about a year now.
Jobless.
Clueless with women.
Suicidal.
Drunk and high right now, I just don't know where to turn. I don't feel like I'm going anywhere anytime soon, no matter how hard I'd try, it won't matter.
I don't feel like I've contributed at all to our species. I don't even think I'm capable of contributing anything worthwhile to our species. I've been feeling this helpless for a while, and I know it's getting in the way of me seeing a brighter future (before I'll lose it all in death)
How do you go about feeling like less of a waste of space in life?
getting out more, working out, trying harder, eating better, talk to therapist. really anything to better yourself or you'll stay in the state that you're in.
>>18272472
At your age i was fat retarded introvert nerd who was basically
>waste of space
The only difference between you and me was that i wasnt making whiny threads about it on 4chan. In reality i didnt give a fuck.
I suggest you to drop all drugs (both legal and illegal), start doing better in school (if you are dumb, just find a job and drop out), adopt a sport, brush your teeth and get a gf. Also start playing some games and read some books instead of degenerate drugs.
Cheers!
>>18272480
Fair enough. I'm no retard I'm just a whiny little bitch trying to find some meaning in life
You're right about these drugs, they're not helping in the slightest.
>Friend wants to meet at LGBT office in my college.
>I'm not gay, male, athletic, and albino white.

>Walk into the office to wait, see guy in kippah I went to High School with.
>Try to be friendly he doesn't respond much oh well.
>See an attractive secretary, I make a dumb joke about the condoms they have on the table.
>She laughs, we talk, find out she's from my hometown.
>Talk about weird shit we saw as kids.
>Make corny jokes and discuss odd fetishes we've seen on the web, she seems chill.
>Friend gets there, we talk he comes out of the closet, no judge, I support him. We joke a bit.
>Months later...
>"The Office of Equality wants to meet with you regarding concerns."
>Everyone there thought I was some pervert making jokes about fetishes and condoms.
>Rumors spread about me saying "suggestive" comments.
So yeah, apparently I have this meeting coming up. How screwed am I? Is my reputation done for? Nobody said a word to me while I was in there, so nobody spoke up!
>>18272439
you're at a college campus lgbt club, there was bound to be some hypersensitive doormat that'd get offended but not say anything to you and just snitch anyways. nothing you can really do now but explain yourself
How do you joke about condoms on a table?
>>18272439
>lgbt office
Could somebody post a photo of what that looks like? You see i am from poor europe and there is no such a thing here. I cant even imagine what is it for.
We just go to school / uni to study. What has gender and or sexual orientation to do with it?
Opportunity for everyone to get creative.
Explanation:
I am currently living with 4 other roommates who are unwilling share any responsobilites e.g. cleaning, not being loud past 12, replacing toilet paper.
I am looking for subtle ways to mess with them without them having any idea it was me. Our relationship is not terrible so they should not suspect me.
Examples of what I have already done:
Messed with the WiFi so the signal range is weaker, soon looking into making a schedule that blocks websites at certain hours (They are not tech savvy). I have my own secret router as well.
Erased the channels from the TV ,my room is next to the TV and they would always watch stuff late at night. Again they are not tech savvy enough to fix this.
Give me some inspiration.
>>18272431
That is retarded.
If they are slobs, why not move elsewhere or discipline them?
>>18272445
More info:
shitty contract for rent. Kinda stuck for the year. Don't see how I could discipline them as is uni run apartment and I did not choose to live with them. Uni management wont let me move unless I was harrased or something bla bla. Its a really good location so I can live with this as long as I can get some fun out of it.
>>18272455
Tried blackmailing?
Just make all internet traffic redirect to page where will be list of things to do and that internet wont be free until the mess has been solved.
I posted here last week ater I had my first visit to my psychologist (NOT a psychiatrist). This week I basically continued to tell her my life story, how I got to the point where I am a psychological fuck up that I am right now, etc.
I am a guy, 25 YO, depression, OCD and social phobia are my problems. She said we will have to do work on my depression first, because it disables me to do anything else, and asked me if I feel like I will be able to start doing the therapy.
I said yes because that's why I came there, so it left me bummed, because... what such therapy may look like? I mean for 2 weeks it was me talking, and I have my next appointment in 1,5 week, and each next one is gonna be a week afterwards.
What can I expect this therapy to look like? I might add it's not going to be a pharmaceutical therapy. Will she just tell me to get better, do something socially or what? I have absolutely no idea.
>>18272418
Mostly it's the exact same thing you've been doing so far. You talk, the therapist asks questions and then draws your attention to issues you may yourself avoid addressing or might even notice, or might call you out on harmful patterns of thinking you practice. The first few sessions will be similar to what you've done so far until your therapist has a comprehensive view of who you are as a person. Sure, there are different types of approaches and types of therapy, but it's really nothing to worry about.
>>18272430
But so far it was literally me talking 99% of the time. I can talk to my wall and not waste money then.
I've been going to a counselor and yeah it's basically been like this. I was at real low point and got referred to them, I'd been dealing with anxiety and depression after a painful event, I'd just talk about what was getting me down, and my plans for the future. I talked about setbacks when they happened, and other stuff. The counselor offered commentary on stuff, just about how I should feel good about steps I'm taking, and that I've got a lot to offer people if I can deal with my issues. They've suggested I try a group thing about managing your moods, it's about coping with anxiety mainly, so I'm going to give that a go. I think it's been helpful even if they mostly just listen, thinking about how to explain your mental state to someone else can help make things clearer for you. Just having someone who doesn't know you to give perspective on your issues is good as well.
There's this girl in my university I sit with in a few classes. We've known eachother since September. She always invites me to go party with her group of friends although I only really talk and have fun with her.
I didn't really have any interest in anything more with her, as she always kept mentioning her "crushes", and it seems she always has a fuckbuddy or two going on.
But lately she's been talking to me like once a week, initiating with some silly picture, and then we keep texting and it's pretty fun. I've consistently made her cry of laughter (although I'm not that funny) and she gets obviously flirty
I think maybe that's just friendly banter, but I've started to like her more and I dont know how to progress. In the weekdays she lives with her brother in an apartment nearby our campus, but weekends she's like 3 hours away, so it's hard to meet.
I basically want to try to date her / initiate a fuckbuddy situation but I'm scared of making it awkward between us and then become a talking/mocking topic in her group of friends or something. Any advice?
>>18272417
>and it seems she always has a fuckbuddy or two going on
Why are you interested in a worthless slut? Or are you into someone's sloppy seconds, cucky?
>>18272417
What uni is this in? If its big you can fuck up and not worry much about consequences. If you're doing something like medecine though, you'll be stuck with each other for a few years so you gotta watch out.
>>18272450
im from a relatively small european city, it's a small campus. i'll probably have her in my classes again in 2 years (im going away to study 1 year in another country)
any advice on how to go about it? tell her through text? invite her to dinner?
My world is falling apart right now I dont know what to do.
I am an 18 year old high school student and I live with my parents. My parents are married for around 20 years and there has never been any problems between them. I recently checked my mother's chat history and found that she was talking to a man. There wasnt any talk about leaving my father nor was there any talk of him visiting us but she was really cozy with him, talking like one would talk to her lover. I dont think their relationship has escalated to the stage where she wants to leave my father yet but I am worried that it eventually will.
This is even disturbing for me because she displayed clear disgust at the morals of my neighbour's mother when she left her daughter because she didnt want to live with her husband.
My mother is a cancer survivor and my father had to transfer job locations for her to get money for her treatment. I literally cannot comprehend how my mother would be ungrateful enough so as to betray my father.
I really want to believe I am wrong somewhere but I dont know how I can do that.
Any advice about what I should do in this situation will be extremely helpful.
I am sorry if i didnt type this properly I am really not in a state to take care of grammar and formatting.
>>18272378
>I recently checked my mother's chat history and found that she was talking to a man.
Does she know you were doing that?
what a terrible world we live in
>>18272378
It's none of your business really. Your parents relationship is their problem and they have to sort it out.
My ex started talking to me again after not talking to me for a long time. He had his own issues to work out.
We've been talking on and off this past month. Conversations were kind of scattered because we both have our busy schedules. Anyway, I ask him if he wants to see Wonder Woman with me next month since my sister has school stuff that she's busy with. I tell him, "I want to see it with my Steve Trevor." Just an offhand remark you know. Just something really cutesy. He then has to get serious and says, "If I was your Steve Trevor, I would be treating you so much better. You deserve someone who treats you like Steve treats Diana. I'm not going to be anyone's Steve Trevor for a long time"
I just laugh it off because I don't want to cause any problems or be annoying. But I don't get it...he admits to not treating me right and he admits to being kind of shitty towards me. So why doesn't he try to treat me better? Why can't he treat me the way he knows I should be treated?
I'm not going to initiate a conversation with him. And next time he asks for pictures of wants to sext or whatever, I'll just tell him that privilege is only reserved for Steve Trevor dudes.
This hurts because I thought he was going to be better this time. I guess I was wrong.
Lmfao some women never learn.
>>18272352
lmfao because men don't go through the same shit.
He got horny and lonely but he fundamentally is telling you he doesn't want to be with you.
I did this a lot while I was sad and immature
