Hey everyone, I've run in to a minor problem in a new relationship and I'm looking for general advice. My new girlfriend is very smart, cute and charming and I like her very much. I'm a very sincere person and I don't like to have trivial conversation, so naturally I thrive in more personal environments. She is also very sincere in intimate conversation, so when we're together alone it's very fulfilling and special because when I say things to her they are absorbed and she makes points back to me so it feels like I learned more about the subject afterwards. The only issue is that when we're in a group setting she uses more rhetoric (which is fine, that's basically what group conversation is), but I don't really function in a rhetorical conversation so I like to just smile and listen and occasionally say something. See this would be totally okay if it weren't for that the conversation we have one on one and the conversation we have in a group setting is so different so it's percieved by her friends that we are awkward around each other which leads to her worrying that we aren't good for eachother which is rectified by one on one conversation.

So what actual actions should I take in these rhetorical group conversation that I'm not really important in to help my girlfriend be more confident that we aren't awkward together?

What? It's nice to try and sound smart, but you should learn to try and communicate your issues first. I don't understand what kind of rhetoric would cause these issues? Do you even know what that word means?
>>
>>18184069
No I'm taking a college writing class so this is just how I talk or write right now. It's like an angsty 4chan writer to ignore the post just because I used a big word. "Rapport" is a better word.
>>
>>18184069
And also you're wrong. Rhetoric in the modern context is just talking without sincerity, like if somebody comes up to you and references a meme to make you like them.

Hey guys, so its college choice season and I'm in quite a pickle. I got accepted to University of Glasgow and I'm really pumped to study in Scotland (I'm on the west coast). My goal is to spend one year there and then transfer to University of Texas. My parents on the other hand want me to go to a local college and then go to University of Texas. The cost difference is within 4k of each other. Should I go with what I want to do or should I stay local?

Your parents are paying, right ? If so, your say is limited to what they are willing to shell out. If money isn't an objective you should do what you want but remember to visit them as often as you can .. I guess they want you local as you go to Texas in a years time

I'll try to make this quick although it's much deeper than what it seems but basically

>Been depressed for 5 years
>Not show it to anyone
>Start seeing a therapist
>Things are kind of the same
>Have an urge to tell my best friend about what's happening to me
>Be afraid of him distancing from myself because of this (Even though we are childhood friends and he's a great person)
>Don't know what i'm looking to get from telling him since the things that bother me are not fixable

Should I? It seems useless to bother him with my shit emotional baggage because in the end i doubt it would help me in anyways but i still kind of want to tell him

Depends. How often do you talk? How old are you? Does he ever talk about heavy stuff with you? When you say distanced does that mean he's moved on and got his own life whereas you haven't?
>>
>>18183946
Are you a boy or girl. If you are a boy no ones gonna give a shit about your depression. many people are depressed and have no idea they are and go through the phases. honestly being diagnosed with depression is far worse than having it.
If you are a girl he'll listen but think you are crazy and avoid sensitive topics with you. If you are a boy he'll think you are a fag and tell you constantly to man the fuck up.

>>18183976
I'm 19, known him since kindergarten, I was probably around 2 or 3 years old when i met him

>How often do you talk?
Everyday, we play videogames together and we go out almost every weekend

>Does he ever talk about heavy stuff with you?
Not really, he has hinted some stuff but when i inquire he doesn't go deep about it, not sure if because it's not deep or because he feels the same as me

>When you say distanced does that mean he's moved on and got his own life whereas you haven't?

Meant it as i'm afraid if i tell him he would distance himself from me, we live in the same city

Long-winded backstory incoming, will tl;dr.

I've had a crush on this girl for the past 19 months now. I met her in a class, and we've occasionally worked together in extracurricular shit since then (theatre department where we've worked on the same shows). We've never really hung out outside of these situations except the few times we're at the same party, so we barely know each other and are acquaintances at best.

I have a lot of personal shit to deal with, so I don't really have a romantic life by choice (haven't been on a date in 8 years). I've slept with 2 other girls since developing feelings for the crush, but nothing else. This crush is certainly not going to break my no-dating pledge, and just as well there is a laundry list of reasons I have not to date her if I was willing to.

However, my feelings still persist and have been pretty troubling as of late. Does anyone have any advice for how to get over these obnoxious feelings? I already keep myself pretty occupied, have a pet for companionship, exercise fairly regularly, and do all that kind of standard shit, but I'm looking for more personal insights on how to get over this kind of thing.

I dropped out of college in 2008 after a few weeks because the only reason I went was to live on my own without any rules on when to go to bed or how long I could play videogames.
Is it too late to go back? Or is there some other way to fix my life?
How would I decide what to get a degree in? I feel like people think I'm stupid because all I have is a high school diploma.

Do you want to work with your hands?
Do you want to work with your mind?
Do you want to work with people?

How do you feel about how much risk you put yourself in? Both physically & monetarily?
What is your ideal $ range? (if you don't know, then what do you want to do/get which costs money?)
Do you want to 'do good'?
Do you want respect/renown/power?

What are higher priorities than others?

I do not like physical risk at all. Some monetary risk is acceptable.

I don't really have any priorities or anything. I would just like to have a reason to live or to actually enjoy life.

I'm a 24 year old man, and I have an extremely hairy body. I want to shave, or at least trim, the hair on my ass and stomach, but I'm worried about the contrast it will create with the rest of my body. If I completely shave my ass hair, wouldn't I also have to shave my leg hair to avoid looking ridiculous? If I shave my stomach hair, wouldn't I also have to shave my chest hair, or even arm hair? It seems that my only options are having a completely hairless body,or a completely hairy one.

I shave my chest and belly occasionally, it makes me look more buffed because you can see the definition of the pecs more without the hair in the way.
I'm a pretty skinny guy but the difference it makes is quite big.

It doesn't look weird to me.
>>
>>18183900

not really. look at other men and we have different types of hairy bodies.

if oyu have any sort of definition in your chest than just shave up to where those muscle start, thats what most men do you'll notice.

others shave their stomach entirely but leave their 'treasure trail'.

as for ass and legs, its actually normal for hair to get thinner and brighter as it goes up the legs, i have very hairy lower legs, kinda hairy thighs, than a smooth ass (save for the crack).

experiment. remember that the only people who see it will be the ones who see you naked for sex generally.
>>
>>18183916
Yeah, but my issue is that my legs are really hairy all the way up my thighs :/

I'm in a LDR (~500mi) with my girlfriend of two years. She has a low libido and even when I ask to do sexual things over Skype, she claims she's not feeling it and makes me wait a few days. But when she's turned on, I make sure she gets it when she wants and how she wants it. She seldom puts out the effort just to get me off.

When we're together, she will only have sex when she wants, not when I'm aroused. So basically the same shit.

Tonight she did the same shit I described above and is making me wait to do sexual stuff over Skype (thus killing my boner) -- and I'm fucking sick of it.

Am I justified in being pissed at her, or am I a prick? Be honest, please.

I've noticed a pattern that I enjoy talking with cute girls and become friends with them. But anytime they show interest in me, it gives me serious anxiety issues that really fuck me up. Everytime it happens I quickly friendzone them, and it seems once that happens my anxiety starts to lift.

I've been friends with this girl for about 2 months now, she's been pretty flirty with me and I've told her I'm not looking for a girlfriend. But she's been trying even HARDER. today she was asking for me advice about some issues with her friends, so we discussed it for a while. At some point, she asked me about my past girlfriends... well, I've never had one. So I told her that. She responded with

Her- "I did not expect that.."
Her- "have you ever kissed a girl before? :) "
Me- "well, yes... but it was a bad experience.. this is awkward.."
Her- "I'm sorry for making you uncomfortable, I'm so curious :/"

That shit really made me feel bad. But, it's odd because although I feel down right now. I do not feel anxious at all. I don't think she's going to flirt with me anymore.

Just curious if anyone else knows this feeling

how sexually interested are you in her or girls in general?

your anxiety sounds like the reverse many guys have. for example anxious at first meeting an attractive female. sounds suspicious to me. like maybe you are gay.
>>
>>18183692

I find girls sexually attractive. I assure you I'm not gay.
>>
>>18183694
>>18183694
Ok, then maybe you just have aspergers or some mild autism. sexuality is a heavy thing and flirting makes me uncomfortable as well. i just bit the bullet and went in or a kiss on this girl i knew liked me. she was decent enough looking. it was a little unexpected for her but she didnt mind. you want advice? hang out with that last girl and then kiss her. dont choke her with your tongue necessarily, but kiss her.

Attack some random person
Chances are that if you start a random attack chain someone will eventually attack the person who attacked you

I walk in to my room today, looking to shower and relax. I share my single room with a roommate - cool guy. I notice he left his keys in the lock... maybe was in a rush? Use his keys to unlock the door and then notice how dark it is with the bathroom light on. I walk a little forward and notice a bare butt on his bed and he jumps up saying "Heyyyyyyyy. Uh whats up?" I tell him I just came to drop something off, trying to seem as if I didn't see the bare piece of ass laying on his bed. I ask if he needs the room. He nods. I swiftly leave and don't know how I should handle this awkwardness.

My birthday is in a month and I have no friends to hang out with, and I still live with my parents (will be turning 28).

I need some kind of solo activity I can do so my parents think I'm out having fun for once.

Maybe just hit up the local theater and see every movie I can for the day? Could get kinda pricey if I want a drink/snack. Not like I have a girlfriend with a purse to sneak shit in for me.

Any better ideas? All else I got is park my car in a parking garage and take a nap all day. There isn't much to do anywhere within 100 miles and I hate driving.

You have a job? If you're living at home, I can't imagine you're spending money on anything. So buy a ticket to Vegas. Stay 1 night if that's all you can afford. But at least you can do something fun, and honestly, you don't need other people with you to have fun in Vegas. It's actually obnoxious trying to make a group of people happy there. So just go and have a blast. Talk to/hit on everyone you see. Not like you'll ever see them again. Just throw away all your fucks for a day.

Sign up to volunteer walking dogs or playing with cats at your animal shelter. its really fun and you feel good doing it for those homeless pets. The dogs especially get so excited when you open their kennel and take them outside.

That's really for you to decide what your comfortable with.

I was about to walk from my current gf when she said 8, but I stayed.

Best relationship I've ever been in. Im a firm believer that people change. And if your worried about her cheating or something, being controling wont do anything, they will just cheat anyway.

Go for it. She seems to want to get back into her religion.

Hello to all
I wanted to talk to you guys about a problem i have. I recently quit alcohol about 42 days ago. I had massive withdrawls, massive jump in heart rate, whole body tremors, slowed breathing, physical pain, dialeted pupils like i just dropped 500ug of lSD (did it once a long time ago) nausia, hot flashes and cold sweats, blurry vision, insomnia (<-had it since i was 8 though) sweating/pale skin, dried lips, and what im conviced was a seizure all at once (tried to open my eyes but they would keep twitching and all i could see was white and my body was stiff, i couldn't move a muscle till i grabed my bed sheets and forced myself up!)

Anyways, ive always used cannabis for my insomnia as at absolute best i got 6 hours of sleep a night as a kid whenever i would try for about 9 hours. I've been sober for 42 days but i have one issue.
Everytime i smoke i get tremors, increased heart rate, warming in my face, blurry vision, and dehydration like my body is running through water faster then it should! I've never experienced this problem in 7 years of on and off smoking with a high tolerance usually smoking up to a gram at night and 1 bowl in the afternoon everyday to help me sleep. Have any of you experienced this before? Im 21, 42 days sober, was drinking for only 1 year a pint to a 1/5th a day of whiskey this is a pic of me during a attack that left me feeling the symptoms above. Have any of you experienced anything similar? I can be sober easily, its going to sleep thats tough! I fucking hate my life as im always drained of energy and even my boss is telling me to try to smoke as its drastically affecting my work! Is this permanent or will it fade away in time? Seriously never felt close to this on cannabis a day in my life!!!
Pic is me but I'm not that pale...

Fuck man alcohol or benzo w/D's are dangerous as shit, you should try to just get into a detox for a couple days, if you have insurance it might not even cost shit, but please be careful, I'm 23 and 3 years clean off pills mostly opiates, and as painful as those withdrawals are they're not life threatening like alch
