If I got a 45% on my calculus test, is it worth begging the professor to let me pass. It's the last subject I need to pass the grade.
Im asking cause 49% would probably work but 5% is a significant difference.
How would you guys approach it if you have any experience?

Why would a professor change the objectively determined score you received on your test? It's not like it was an opinion.
>>
>>18706227
Well it's not like you tick an a,b,c option.
You need to solve a diff. equation or a an integral and who's to say it didn't merit a 10-11% instead of 8% that was assigned by the prof.
>>
>>18706226
I would approach it by sucking his/her dick and asking if you can retake the test or do another test for extra credit. Don't beg them asking you to give you the grade for nothing, Show some initiative that lets them know you're willing to work for it.

Is love inherently mutual?

If what you feel is not reciprocated fully, can it truly be called love? Maybe infatuation and devotion, but is it love? Is real love a single emotion shared between two? And any unevenness implies a separation of emotions and therefore not love?

Get semantic with me /adv/
Just talking about romantic love here

This is one of those questions that can't be answered correctly since we don't have a rock-solid definition of what "love" is, except our vague understanding of chemicals involved in the process. Science tells us that yes, it is possible to have these chemicals released into our bloodstream even if the other person does not do the same. Ethics vary in each person, so no point in bringing them in. Religion - it depends. Based on the bible, for example, I still don't have a clue about what "love" is, since it is written in unclear metaphores and gibberish.

It's obviously hopless, so not much to ponder I'm afraid.

So, there's this girl I've met on Tinder. She ALWAYS starts conversations with me, and I'm pretty sure she likes me. BUT, Everytime I try to hang around with her IRL, she pulls the "I can't because my mother will start suspecting" card.
Is this some bullshit excuse? I don't understand.

ftfy

that or she is really 15 years old

either way you need to cut contact immediately.

I have to ask my bf to do something really out of bounds and borrow money from him for rent. I live with my dad, and he has been out of work for over a month. Finally started about a week ago, and didn't get a big enough check for the pay period. Dad makes a decent 70k per year in his blue collar job. We aren't rich but we live comfortably and paying bf back wouldn't be an issue, but it'd just take about a month to fix up this struggle we've been in.

I work too, but part time as I am a student.

My bf has a very large savings that he has put so much effort into over the years. A few tens of thousands in there. I need 1200 by today to pay my rent without eviction.


It doesn't matter the scenario, I have done this only one other time with my bf about 3 years ago and asked to borrow 1k, and he went apeshit when I asked to borrow money from him. He did it, but he emotionally punished me and was a passive aggressive asshole. I paid him back two weeks later, but he was just a fucking psycho the whole time. Then, a month later, it was my birthday, and he absolutely refused to take me out for my bday even though I paid him back. And told me that borrowing money was my present. I mean, I didn't even care and was just relieved that everything was sorted out. But, I know he's gonna do this dumb shit again. And get all fucking psycho.

Right now, he is my only option. The very thought of asking him makes me want to cry.

How do I ask?

>>18706144
the relationship probably won't work out if your bf Is causing a scene over BORROWING money. hell, I lend money to my friends all the time because I know that they will pay me back so having your BOYFIREND give you issues over borrowing money is just a sign that that relationship will not work out. you can borrow the money then pay it back a month later then leave his ass but then you may have to deal with him trying to kill you because someone like that is definitely emotionally unstable

>>18706165
I know that already. But I need to ask him in a way that he'll say yes by 1pm today so our banks don't close and I can get the money

Overdress
Shave/groom
Smile
Look at them in the eye
Give a nice firm handshake (if you aren't confident in your handshake then practice. SQUEEZE the sucker)
Arrive early.... 20 minutes minimum
Be prepared to answer questions (What difference would you make for this company? Tell me about yourself. etc)
DO NOT RAMBLE!!!!! (Don't applogize excessively. Try not to period. Confidence my man).

Good luck. Be confident.
>>
>>18706080
Consider what you would answer as your strengths/weaknesses. Why would you like this particular job? Answering I just need a job is not a good answer, take a look at their homepage/advertising and figure how you would fit in and how you could contribute to the company is better. Good Luck! Stay cool!
>>
Ask really thoughtful questions that prompt introspection. As an example, when I interviewed for my current position one of the questions I asked one of my interviewers was how the values of the company aligned with theirs. I've found that people generally enjoy thinking and/or answering "difficult questions" about themselves that require careful consideration. Obviously tie it into the context of the job/career and if you're not genuinely interested at least feign interest when asking it.

I feel like I'm wasting my life. I go to sleep at 2-7 am and wake up at 1-4 pm. Yesterday I woke up at 5.
There are so many things I could be doing. I tried sleeping pills but I always take them too late and besides they make me sleep for longer so it's all the same.
I'm currently working from home.

Get an alarm clock. Stay awake rather than trying to get to bed early to get in sync. Get a good routine before you go to bed likr read a book for an hour to get rid of distractions.

>I go to sleep at 2-7 am and wake up at 1-4 pm
>I go to sleep at 2-7 am

There's your problem. At what time do you want to wake up, and how many hours of sleep you want? The trick to wake up at a consistent time is to always go to sleep at the same time, every day. If you want to get 8 hours of sleep and wake up at 8 AM, you have to go to sleep at 12 AM (ideally), 11PM or 1AM at worst, every day, even on weekends.

To switch to this new schedule, you have two options: change slowly (go to sleep 15/30 min earlier each day) or get less sleep in one day (say, go to bed at 3 AM and wake up 7 AM), then try to go to sleep earlier in that day (e.g. 12 AM).

I just can't get past this stage /adv/
as a 20 yo virgin I've worked a lot on myself in the past few years and I got to the point where I'm confident in social situations. Build attraction, dating, I got all of that stuff alright but I'm stuck at that.
Most people say that when the right time comes it will just happen naturally, but apparently that doesn't work for me and I just blow up all the chances.
Are there any mind tricks I can play on myself to make me do this?

That's the secret. It happens naturally. Don't force it and holy fuck man, I know how it feels, but really don't force it. I've killed every chance I got for forcing shit with every other girl and I can tell you from experience that things WILL progress naturally, for better or worse (whether you breakup / get fucking married with kids, things WILL go towards a direction whether you force it or not).

>>18706007
yeah I understand that, just sometimes it feels like I'm waiting for the girl to jump on me and I don't wanna be that guy because I know it doesn't work like that.

The larger the change in DNA in each generation, the higher the probability of death.

To do what you suggest, and have a chance of viable offspring, you would have to carry out trials on trillions of subjects. Billions of trillions.

Go see a therapist man. They can help you more than we can here.

>>18705868
Thanks for the advice anon but therapists in my country dont give a shit about the patient and cost shit loads of money and i just cant afford it, my mom used to go to a therapist for her depression he only used to give her sleeping pills without even listening to what she has to say, thinking it would calm her down it only made it worse. Therapists here suck.

>>18705884
Cognitive behavioural therapy. No pills involved, few sessions. There are probably online guides you can try yourself.

The Hampton inn in Ellenton Florida is currently rejecting pets from residents to enter and are disregarding the governor's statement allowing pets to be taken into hotels and buildings for shelter. My mother recently moved to the area and is forced to move to the hotel because her house structure will not stand strong. She needs to take her dog in, the dog is all she has. Please, if anyone has any advice or can help, it would be appreciated.

Is there any way to bring it in stealthily? It would only work if it were a small dog, like putting it in a big bag or something
>>
>>18705854
tell her to go to an actual shelter and not a hotel?
or follow the rules of admission like having it in a crate and having valid paperwork.
>>
>>18705948
At the time she booked the hotel all the shelters were already at capacity. Also, the hotel was one of the only ones available, even getting reserved a week early. If you're forgetting, half the state is about to be destroyed. She went to a hotel because her small, one story house half a mile from the water probably won't be there in about 24 hours. Thanks for your advice though.

I was really hitting it off well with a chick at a party and she put her number in my phone, but when we got seperated and I said I enjoyed talking and hoped she got home safe, she never replied. It says it was read as soon as I sent it. Am I fucked? Why would she give me her number?

If a girl ever feels even a slight thing about you, she will find ways to respond and contact you. Also girls are usually going right with the flow. She was drunk and something something she put her number into your phone. Big effing deal, nothing came of it.
