Hi,

So there's this new girl who moved into the flat I'm sharing with a couple of other girls. It's supposed to be a professional flat share. Thing is, this girl has a live-in boyfriend who does nothing for a living, is constantly at the flat. She and him are getting stoned every single day. I can smell it. I feel uncomfortable. What do I do? Do I rat them out to the landlord? Help!

why? That's not helpful.

How do you get over losing your ideal women, perfect in every way? I know there are many more women out, some may be just a great, but none will be quite the same. Time will do most of the work but I can't help but feel devastated and everything I wanted is probably gone forever. She left me to go back to her emotionally abusive ex, another women, and they just got engaged. This all happened in the last couple weeks and we're still friends, we work together. I have to be supportive of what she wants even if it kills me inside. What the fuck is wrong with me that I want to be friends and move on to do my own thing at the same time?

So, your girl goes to another woman? She's a bi?

I've been through similar experiences, and sadly only time will heal, but if you want to speed up the process you can always go disdain her. Show contempt, disdain thins you could never have. Forcefully alter your mindset to hate it.

Mind you, that's not a healthy way. The best way is to constantly remind yourself that your happiness is depended on yourself not others' presence, learn to love yourself. Do something you love, master some individual skill/expertise.

Today I am beginning my new diet and exercise regimen. But I pigged out this weekend and I feel gross and look gross.

How do I get out of the mindset of eating food as comfort? Any tips or tricks? Thanks.

Just go to the gym you faggot. You will not think about food.
>>
Look for comfort in other areas, don't chastise yourself over your looks and try not to obsess over them. Just work on changing your life habits gradually, and make peace with the fact that it'll probably take half a year to reach a point where you can look yourself in the mirror and be satisfied. So avoid mirrors as a general rule, and don't weight yourself three times a day.

Just focus work, hobbies and self improving. Overall, be mindfull that you have a limited amount of self control and mental fortitude available in a day, and this diet is tapping into it, so avoid doing too many things that take discipline, you might burn yourself out and start binging like you already did.

Just keep a positive outlook and consider what's happening to you not a punishment, but your new healthy habits for the rest of your life.

I can't remember the last time I was legitimately happy. I feel very numb to emotion unless it's negative, in which case I just become angry. Lifting weights helps and so does talking to friends and girls but deep down inside I think I am a very troubled person. I've always held bad thoughts, and I'm not sure if it's down to my upbringing or if I was just born like that. I really want to go and see a psychologist but I can't afford it right now. I go to school and work part time and live out of home. No centrelink/gov assistance so literally no spare money. It goes to food, bills and savings. What can I do? If there's anyone out there who wants to talk that'd be awesome

Are you sure you feel numb to positive emotion or you just don't get to experience it or deflect it? No matter how troubled you are or how fucked up your are you can become a more positive person. Hate, obsession, jealousy... All of those are destructive and will make you a "troubled person".

My mom made fun of me every time i mentioned a girl in a conversation when I was little (6-12) years old.

It got to the point that when i was in my teens I couldn't interact to girls without getting anxiety attacks and of course never had a girlfriend.

Im in my 20s now and my mom has been wondering why i dont have a gf, i clearly explained to her why is because how she treated me when i was a kid and im now so damaged im probably never gonna get one or give her grand children.

She got upset/started crying. Did she get what she deserved or should i apologize?

Make peace with her. She didn't do what she did out of spite and didn't realize she was fucking you up. Holding it against her will just make life more miserable for both of you. Everyone's parents unintentionally fuck them up somehow.

caught my bf /who i live with/ sexting with a girl who has slept with before /that time we were taking a break from our relationship for 2 months, reason: he was acting immature af/ also found naked photos of them having sex.

now he says she is just a good friend and thats the way they normally communicate lol, nothing happend between then since we got back together, just chilled a few times at her place

honestly, cheating is the only solution i see, it would make me feel better, at least. however i acknowledge its not the right thing to do, and its below my standards.

any ideas? need an objective opinion on this.

Break up, stay strong, and don't cheat. If you have the strength of character, you will just break up and get on with your life. Cheating to get back at anyone is not the right thing to do and you know it

>>18208911
Break it up silently and strongly. Don't explain yourself, don't lecture, just leave and block him from every communication possibility. He ain't worth an additional second of your time.

Since when is this a thing? Do people nowadays want everything revealed and given to them from the start? Is using your imagination a thing of the past?

I've known people getting mad and feeling rejected for not wanting to send them nudes. Or asking for theirs. If I want nude pics I'll look at porn. If I want someone in particular nude I'll see them nude in person.
Is it normal that the fact that this is considered perfectly normal/natural and decent and turns people on, heck they even get mad if you don't participate, that this gets me disgusted and sad? Not a virgin btw

>would like to get nudes sometimes
>don't know how
Fuck me senpai.
As for you OP, such things quickly become popular in the masses because the masses don't have much virtue. If you don't wanna see or send nudes just say so, if someone gets offended or stop talking to you because of that even better.
>>
>>18208843
>Since when is this a thing?
Since it was possible. Just like people started to film themselves fucking since the availability of cheap home cameras. Or looking at cat pictures at work when Internet became more mainstream.

>Do people nowadays want everything revealed and given to them from the start?
What does this even mean in the context of the topic? You seem to look at it from the porn POV while it's more a turn on thing, for both.

> If I want someone in particular nude I'll see them nude in person.
This isn't always possible.

>I've known people getting mad and feeling rejected for not wanting to send them nudes. Or asking for theirs.
Someone is always going to be butthurt. This is related to the people you deal with, not to nudes.

>Is it normal that the fact that this is considered perfectly normal/
Is it normal that something is considered normal? Well, duh?
>>
No one's seriously going to acknowledge the even bigger elephant in the room?
OP, you are right for even more reasons than you are aware.
If one wants a professional career later down in life, nudes existing in the hands of exes and on the internet CAN AND WILL be used as blackmail.
Even if one trusts every SO and FB (which is foolish), you cannot trust the security of cloud storage that most people blindly back up photos to.
tl;dr Don't send nudes if you care about goals and careers.

How do I stop feeling inadequate? I'm slowly coming to the realization that I'm 25 years old and I haven't ever talked about my intimate feelings more than once (and I feel extremely ashamed about that one time) in my entire life

I am sick to death of other people trying new stuff, failing spectacularly and just having a fun time with it. Meanwhile if I did the same I'd look like a fucking dork because I'm just that quiet reserved guy.

Welcome to the adult world. What exactly is your problem?
Job, gf, anxiety, friends, happines, accomodation?

Just learn how to step out from your comfort zone and you will be fine. Try talking to somebody. Your parents should be able to help.

Nogf, stable job. I have a small circle of friends but haven't made a new friend in over 12 years.

I can't make friends at work either. I try to talk to people and things, but after the initial period the relationship kind of dies because I never move relationships further. All the people I know usually made the effort themselves to get to know me, and I'm very uninteresting so it's difficult for me to attract people.

I have friends but I feel lonely. I've repressed my feeling my entire life, always played the asocial cold type guy but it was just a persona to hide myself behind.
>>
>>18208934
You gotta man up OP. I'm literally in the same boat as you (no gf, stable job, can't make friends/relationship fades quickly), and I am perfectly fine with this. I get to spend a lot of time on my hobbies, and don't have to deal with the bullshit that comes with having friends (drama, doing things that are boring just for the "friendship", etc.)

Sometimes girls (in public, like at uni or on the bus or whatever) seem visibly attracted to me and at other times, like today, they look put off.
This pertains to most girls I see.
I just don't know why and if it means that I'm attractive or creepy.

You might be at the border between attractive and creepy. Easy for you to swing both ways for reasons I know. Take your chances whenever it seems you're on the attractive side.

>>18208742
But why am I creepy? Why are normal people not creepy, what's wrong with me? I fucking hate this look on the girls' faces when they seem to speed up as they pass me lol. Then I tend to get paranoid and it worsens it. And yet on a different day every second girl would look visibly attracted to me, head turning and what not.

People on /soc/ said I'm good looking.

I haven't been on this board in forever, but I'm at my wit's end here. I basically need help learning how to relax, because I've been a seething ball of hostility for the past 5 months at this point.

Quick background: when I was in college I was a super fundie right-wing fuckup and I did a lot of really mean and hurtful shit right up until it blew up in my face. When it did I was in a really bad spot in a number of ways, and even though they had no reason to, one of the people I hurt helped me out, and I felt I owed them a major debt of gratitude because I'd have probably just offed myself otherwise. Over the years we became pretty good friends (by my measurements), and in turn I was introduced to their friends, etc. For a couple of years I felt like I had a group of IRL friends who I could legitimately consider friends and not just people who put up with me.

Now, over that period, a number of them came out as trans or gender non-conforming. I was a bit put off by it at first but I supported them anyway because I felt it was the right thing to do. I did a decent bit of activism on their behalf, writing legislators, donating to charities, etc. I never made a big fuss about it because it was mostly for my own peace of mind. However, one of the FTMs started being real passive-aggressive towards me, talking about how I wasn't much of a man, etc., and I let it slide for a while because I'm not especially attached to stereotypical masculinity anyway, but when he started treating the person who helped me (another FTM) in a similarly shitty way, I got angry and I suggested that he distance himself because that guy was just a shitty person in general to everyone.

(con't)

Fast forward to election day. I've made no apologies about being very pro-gun, so I refused to vote for Clinton, but at the same time, I could not justify voting for Trump knowing Pence's history. I voted 3rd party and encouraged others to do the same because I felt it split the difference between our self-interests (and our votes didn't really matter much anyway lol Texas).

Then Trump won and immediately everyone started cutting me out of the social circle I was in. I started being told that I valued my "pew pew penis extenders" more than their "right to LIFE". I laid out a detailed explanation about my values and the logic behind my actions, but they flatly rejected my explanation and called me a "selfish white knighting piece of garbage." I suddenly found myself with no contact with any of the people I had considered a second family for years, and a couple of secondary friends who I'm all but certain are spying on me to feed back "did you hear what he said now" gossip to the main group (I keep them as "friends" because information flows both ways and I can tell when they're vagueposting about me). And of course, they're re-rallying around the same abusive asshole who was the first to treat me like shit.
>>
>>18208667
(con't, final)

I got mad. I felt incredibly betrayed, especially when my explanation of my values and priorities was basically given a "fuck you, liar" to my face. I'm still mad. I wake up on occasion with my fists clenched. One time I woke up yelling "YOU FUCKING TRAITOR" for no apparent reason. If I'm in my car for extended periods of time my train of thought goes back to this disaster and I find myself teeth-grittingly furious. I feel like everything about the person I worked to become - the "better me" - not only wasn't good enough, but that the people I truly cared about didn't consider that persona legitimate.

Worse yet, I can't find anyone to talk to about it because the only people left in my life are the far right types who I wanted to distance myself from in the first place, and because being a gun hobbyist basically means I can never admit to being mad - even when justified - or people just treat you as even more of a pariah. I've tried asking some of the people in the group "hey, what do I need to work on" and just get ignored. I'm now constantly on edge and hostile to strangers and I know I shouldn't be. My mom tells me I need to learn to just "turn it off" and relax but I have no idea how to anymore. I feel like I've been robbed of the only real group of friends I've ever had and I don't know how to move forward. I'm not social; I work from home and these people were the sole method of meeting new people that I've had for the last 6 years, so on top of that I feel like I've been effectively socially isolated from not just finding new friends but any potential romantic partners too. I'm 27, I don't have time to rebuild my whole fucking social life from scratch anymore.

What the fuck is my problem? How the fuck am I supposed to deal? Why am I still pissed off when there's nothing I can do anymore and I fucking know it?
>>
Sounds to me like your situation can be solved by burning every bridge you have left with those people (why do you even need information on them if it only hurts you ?) and try to meet new people. I suggest trying to focus on a particular hobby of yours for the time being and try to socialize based on that, you'll have a higher likelihood of finding people you can sympathize with.

These people you talk about seem to have made up their minds about you and nothing positive for yourself can be gained by persisting in keeping them around you, even filtered through another group of acquaintances.

You say you're not "social", I think that is part of your problem. You talk about these people not like they were genuine friends but like they were the only people you could find that you could hang around with at minimal effort on your part. I think you'll have to make some real efforts into putting yourself out there and meeting new people, it'll help you cope.

About your anger, try to use that energy for something else, like working out. It's very hard to be angry when you're busy or tired.

I'm going to my partners sisters wedding in a few months.
From what I've heard from him and his mother, she isn't very nice and has a tenancy of saying mean things/ pick out flaws.
I understand and hoping that the last thing she would be bothered to do on her wedding day is say something nasty towards me, but I want to have some advice on what I can do if she does.
This will be the first time meeting her (wedding is a plane ride away), any tips on dealing with that?

There is not really much else I can do besides smile and take it, is there?
My partners off-handedly said (as a half joke), that his sister will probably automatically hate me because I'm thinner than her.


Also on a side note: What would be a good gift to bring? First wedding I'm going to, I think knife sets, embroidered towels, crystal glassware would already be given by other people.

If she says something nasty towards you just say something equally nasty back. She will respect you and leave you alone.

That's terrible advice, that's just going to cause unnecessary drama and OP is going to look like such a bitch at this girl's wedding. Given that she hasn't met her boyfriend's sister, we can assume that she hasn't met lots of his family either, and that's going to create such a negative first impression on them too.

OP, be the bigger person and let it go
>>
>>18208616
The most important thing here is your bf's attitude. Does he told you all of that just to prepare you not to be shocked? Or he expected you to do something about that?

If he expected you to do something, he'got no control and no balls either.

Just nod and smile, op. Even if his sister or maybe the whole family is a dick bitches just smile don't give them reason or more ammo to nag at you. Be a bigger person who don't start shit if it's unwarranted.

How do I deal with an abhorrently feminist English teacher? (For context: she used to wear dreadlocks until she realized one day that that's cultural appropriation. This is what I'm dealing with every day.) I'm a month away from graduating so I can't fuck this up now. Yet I'm done with this woman. I've been regurgitating feminist rhetoric all year because I knew it would be the only way to get by, but I can't anymore. I've got an essay on feminism due tomorrow (today, really) that I cannot write at all because of how sick I am with this bullshit class. What can I do now without making my grade fubar?

So, I need some serious advice. The other day I decided to go hangout with my friend and her sister. Went out smoked a few joints and talked for a minute, was nice. Kinda decide I thought my friends sister was cute. Decided to hit her up the next day, just asked if she wanted to smoke later in the day. She hits me up later and ask if I want to drink at her neighbors. "Yeahsurewhynot." I go over and hangout with her neighbor, and her two sisters, end up getting too drunk to drive home, guy says I can crash at his place. After a minute I go outside to smoke a cig and dude comes with me. Girl I'm into comes out real fast and goes back in. When she left he ask me "dude, are you trying to hit that or what?" Now I knew he didn't care becausr he was all over her sister all night. She was drunk so my response was "I mean I like her, but she's pretty trashed. Don't want to take advantage. Plus, I don't think she's into me." He goes on to tell me that he thinks she's super into me and was really excited that I was coming over. Still in disbelief I didn't act on it or say anything about it. Later the sister I'm friends with decided to go home. Me, neighbor guy, sister he's mackin on, and the one I'm into decide to go on a car ride. She's so smashed in the car at every sharp bend she keeps falling into me, eventually she just lays in my lap. Next thing I know she's stroaking my beard. Still, I think "she's just drunk." And dont try anything. We go back home, all decide to go our seperate way's. Guy shows me to my room and she comes in with me and ask if I'll sit up with her because she's not sleepy. "Yeahsurewhynot" lay in the bed and bullshit for a minute. I was wearing shorts and she was underneath the covers I asked if she minded if

I used some of them to, since my legs were cold. "You can cuddle up to me, whatever, I don't care." End up telling her I'm into her and she likes me too. We hangout and cuddle and bullshit for like 45 mins, don't wanna make a move and seem too eager. Ask me if it'd be OK if she took her pants off for comfort. "Yeahsurewhynot" end up making out a bit, but again she was drunk and I didn't know how serious she was and didn't want it to be a drunk mistake, plus I don't have much experience there so I freeze up a bit and don't quite know when to make a move. Eventually I fall asleep next to her. Wake up a 9:30 and realize that the phish tickets I want go on sale at 10, so I rush home. Got my tickets. Then start to realize that I barely made a move on this girl all night and left before she woke up and what if she sees that as me not being interested?
>>
Decide to hit her up later that night on facebook, just to give her my number and see if she would wanna hangout the next day after I got off work. She tells me she has to work late (I had the morning shift that day) but we could hangout before work. Again don't wanna seem eager "OK, just text me if you're not busy and wanna hangout for a bit." She hits me up the next night to tell me sorry she got busy before work. I brush it off, nbd. Today I asked her if she would want to hangout after I got off work. She says yeah. Come out and her sisters and her are just sitting in the car, they're up front she's in the back. I sit down in the back next to them and hung out for a few hours just talking and smoking joints. She barely talked the whole night, was super quiet which she usually is but still something just seemed off and so I ended up mostly talking with her sister who I've been friends with for awhile but asked her if she might wanna go see band with me next week if we both don't work she said yeah if she doesn't work (we both don't know our schedules for that yet). Friend sister goes to bed and the other one ask the one I'm into if she would drive her home. She ask if she can stay. I just kinda say "hey if you guys are leaving, I'm just gonna head home. Take it easy." Do you guys think I messed up? Did I come on too strong or not strong enough? I feel like I blew it but idk.

Here's my advice for you:
Format your fucking paragraphs. Seriously, a wall of text is confusing to keep track, and makes people not wanna read it. Structure your shit, relevant topics in one paragraph, other topics in the next.
Secondly, only tell us what's relevant. I don't give a shit how much you smoked before hand, what you are wearing, or how wide your asshole gapes. Just tell me what's important.
Lastly, always, and I mean ALWAYS include a tl;dr if you're gonna make a huge post.
