Is my paranoia a bad thing? I tend to get paranoid, often when walking outside and telling myself that "I'm paranoid". Generally nothing happens, but the feeling of discomfort and alertness is there. Is this really a bad thing? I don't want to pop any pills for this shit, but I just want to make sure that I'm not fucking myself up by being "expecting the unexpected" or just being worried that something will happen based on little to no info. I tell myself and others that I wish I could carry a handgun for protection (though it's pretty much impossible for me to get a permit here). I've been mugged once, though I didn't lose anything, now when a group of people walk by me I tense up my fists and body to deter anyone from attempting to fuck with me (though I'm physically weak as hell so they would probably be able to fuck me up anyway). I just wish I could feel safe outside, but I'm not sure if I should accept that I never will be and I should stay alert at all times.

Ladies - I recently started seeing a girl and several alarm bells have sounded.
One thing in particular bothers me.
In bed she acts. She hasn't faked an orgasm but she is porn level vocal. Moaning when sucking etc... I dunno, hard to explain but clearly insincere.
Also she keeps saying how big my dick is and it's not. It's very average.

My question is can she be acting in bed and not have that insincerity permeate the rest of her personality or do they go hand in hand and ultimately this girl will be fake and manipulate me in other ways?

Thanks

Maybe she just watches too much porn. It's not necessarily insincerity.

its bed talk retard. She's does it to
one get herself in the mood and two, to get you in the mood.

Are you use to girls just laying dead while you fuck them?

Nooobody watches more porn than me and I still know how to be genuine in bed.

Anons, I found myself in an awkward situation, would appreciate some help or opinions

>be me, some random anonette
>chat with interwebs friend, today's topic is my miserable life
>he is very nice and understanding
>during our conversation I realize that I act needy and clingy towards him
>I voice my observation
>he says it's alright, he doesn't mind it and I shouldn't change my ways when I need some support
>I truthfully say I do it out of convenience and that I have to rethink our relationship and readjust my behaviour so I'm not so clingy and needy
>he somewhat hastily finishes our conversation

Now things feel awkward and I feel guilty about being so honest about my feelings and openly admitting that I have to start to be less reliant on him. But it would be probably equally bad to start distancing myself from him without explaining why or giving him some heads-up. What do you think, was I in the right? Or should I feel bad and apologize for being so upfront?

I will now ENOURMOUSLY simplify your life femanon. Listen carefully:

Internet friends arent real. Dont feel bad about him and do whatever you want. Keep talking to him about whatever you need / want. If he didnt enjoy it, he would ghost you long before. You have nothing to apologize for.

Never EVER fall for long dinstance relationships aka LDR. No cuddling, no bf.

And lastly get your own qtie bf so you have somebody real to talk with and cuddle.

Have a nice day!
>>
>>18701077
I don't agree with you at all and that is because I have experienced successful ldr friendships and relationships. I know that people behind the screen are real people and that is why I don't want to hurt or offend them. I appreciate your advice but it's not constructive and doesn't help to solve my problem.

Same situation with me kind of. Had this guy I was talking to. 40 years old. Talked to him for like 4 months and I was having a major crush on him. I told him something that I really regret. It was the truth but I guess that didnt matter to him. He stopped talking to me and yeah it was just done. If you're scared that your cute internet friend might ghost you or whatever, ask him right now. Ask him any question you have on your mind. I still have questions because I didnt ask.

What can I do to motivate myself to achieve my goals?

I've always had a hard time actually doing anything productive, but lately I've had this sinking feeling where I just don't see the point anymore in trying to achieve my goals. In the past I would always feel this "sting" when I was letting myself down, almost like a sharp pain that reminded me to get myself together and give it another go. But nowadays, every time I put one step forward I get this almost inherent urge to sabotage myself and wallow in self-loathing and misery. Now that "sting" has left me and I just feel empty, as if I'm doomed to be a non-achiever and I don't even really care.

Can anyone relate or maybe even help? Thanks.

Stop treating yourself as a slave. You are free man. Lie on your bed, close eyes and say aloud: i am free and i can stay like this whole day! Then realize that it is stupid thing to do, make up your mind about what you truly want and then simply do it.

Making list of your goals on paper and crafting it with dates is also good idea. Break huge goals into multiple smaller ones.

Sometimes doing nothing is also good option. But if that was true, you wouldnt make this thread.

Seek psycholog. Maybe you have deeper problem. Or ask friends or parents to whip you into action.

Friend of mine is dating a really annoying person (F). Her voice is one of those really high pitched 'I-want-everyone-to-love-me' kind. She doesn't get that no one wants her around but her partner always goes out with us and she always tags along.

How can I break it to him that he needs to break up with her or what can I do to get rid of her?

FYI: She has IBD and will never shut up about her hospital visits which myself and my friends give zero fucks about.

When you say 'no one wants her around' - does that mean YOU don't want her around, or your other friends don't want her around too?

>How can I break it to him that he needs to break up with her or what can I do to get rid of her?
Why do they need to break up? Because you don't like her voice?
>>
>>18701006

I don't understand your thread. So you're saying they need to break up because she has a chronic bowel disease and you don't like her voice?
>>
My friends and myself don't want her around.

She generally isn't a nice person as she can go from nice to cold in a matter of an instant. Once she told me her interests in cutting up the people she hates with a chainsaw which is when I stopped talking to her at first. Myself and few of his closer friends agree that they don't go well together.

My husband of 2 years wants to move back home to Texas halfway across the country. We originally met while he was in the army and we got married after a few months of dating. He got out last year and his idea was to move back with his family in Texas and start school. We've been living apart for a few months while I finish school here.

Here's the problem.
>I'm working, my job is okay and with that and school I get by
>Got a job offer recently for when I graduate for a company I really like here
>Husband is in community college and is hoping to transfer to UT.
>Got fired from his job, can't really hold one.
>The GI bill will pay for some of our living but I can't be the only one working because he's not able to hold a job.
>he says he doesn't plan on moving back from Texas; when we made this plan at first it was only supposed to be until he graduates.

tl;dr Husband and I are living apart. I really don't want to move to there and he doesn't want to move here.

I'd say ask your husband to reconsider his plan. Like, other than family, what commitment does have to Texas? It seems like you'd be better off where you're at.
If that doesn't work. Divorce him, or fake a pregnancy. Up to you

Any dude who gets married in the military deserves to be left. He should know better.

Besides, doesn't seem like either of you are mature enough to be married.

Make better choices in the future OP.

He's always wanted to go to UT, like it's his dream.

I've asked him, he seems pretty set on it. I really do love him, I don't want a divorce.

3 weeks ago i moved into my college dorm.

during an RA meeting, an indian girl transfer student started talking to me. she was nice, but weird at the same time. she stood really really close to me when i talked, literally felt like she was gonna kiss me

couldn't understand much of what she was saying but long story short she ended up asking me if i wanted to go to chicago with her this summer and also asked me if i wanted to go to the local history museum with her the next day

"ill let u know anon.jpg"
*she gives me her number*

i've been doing good at avoiding her, but today in the food court she was right behind me in line and of course came up to me and starting talking.
"why didn't u text me anon" etc etc

me: sorry got busy!

me: *gets order and starts to leave*

anon: so we're eating at our hall or here?

me: uhhhh i'm eating here

anon: ok we'll come find you when we get our food (anon is with a korean exchange student that doesn't speak english)

me:....ok

>they sit down and eat with me
>anon asks if i want to come study french at her dorm after we eat
>wtf.jpg
>sorry anon i have a class at 8

that's the only way i escaped. now i have to go incognito mode and can't get a shower for another hour in case she sees me and knows i lied to her

i don't want any contact with this girl in the long term. i'm just being nice because i'm not a dick and it's not in my nature to blatantly tell people to fuck off

today she told me she's moving to a new residence hall right next to the one we're currently in, but will still be using the art studio in this one

should i continue to ghost her or what? i feel like i should say something so it's not all "u didn't text me" every time i bump into her

i don't know if i even told her i didn't want to hang out that she would get the picture. in the past when i tell annoying people that, they still stick around


what do i do?

i'm a girl btw

She's just trying to make friends, one who speaks English, by the sounds of it.
>>
Just be straight-up. Say you feel uncomfortable and that she's coming on a little strong. Worst that can happen is she thinks you're mean, in which case, problem solved.
Honesty isn't always the best policy, but it can work wonders sometimes
>>
>>18701014
that's why i feel bad for ghosting her because i know she's just trying to make friends and i don't know how many she has, but at the same time i literally feel like i have to put on a super smart nice girl next door facade when i'm with her and i don't like it

I'm working my way out of depression. The only problem is that a kind of nihilism lingers - Feeling like there's no point to anything, nothing to look forward to in the future, nothing will improve, what does it all matter, etc. How do I get out of that?

1.: Kill yourself
2.: Find meaning in the meaninglessness
3.: Don't think about it
>>
>>18700993
For me, I realized that meaning is created, Created by living things. The universe and inanimate objects are void of meaning they just exist. But the very existence of living things stem meaning through action and conscious thought. Every thing you do or think creates meaning. When you think to yourself the world is meaningless. That by its self is a meaning. Do not look for meaning in the universe because there is none. It does not need or want it because it is inanimate. Look for meaning in yourself because you are a creator of it. You are what you think. Your thoughts create meaning. We assign meaning to things in our day to day. That is were meaning exists. With that knowledge you can navigate life how you want. You decide your thoughts and emotional state and what things mean in your environment.

You should definitely try speaking your mind out. Find someone in your who you can have a nice conversation with (if you do have someone) and tell them what you are feeling. If you don´t, then (even if they aren´t the most comprehensive of people) try talking to your parents. You are their son and they should love and listen to you no matter what. Speaking may seem terryfing and pointless, but it will definitely be a relief. If non of this works, then you might have to try some more drastical options like getting the fuck outta there nigga. Good luck, if you need any more advise or just someone to speak to just say so, i´d be happy to help

Don't give a fuck. Go from convo to meeting up quick; its Tinder, you don't need a week of build up. So long as you can at least pretend like you don't take yourself too seriously and don't care if she ghosts you then things will work out fine. For some reason any latent desperation you may have is amplified online so seriously don't give a fuck. Girls go on Tinder because they don't want a super serious date so don't be serious.

Want to try getting into tabletop rpgs in order to meet people, but have no experience with them. What can I expect from a board game night at a local game shop? What's the typical gender ratio? If a clueless autistic girl shows up to one with a d&d handbook saying she wants to learn is it typically well received? Is there a certain protocol for beginners?

Also, I tried getting into Magic once but the rules ended up being too complicated and I didn't really enjoy it. Do you think that could be indicative of my enjoyment of other traditional games?

What edition is it ?

Also usually they welcome any woman there.
>>
>>18700888
The gender thing is a little intimidating, but I'm more worried about being a beginner. Also, I guess being both. When you're a man and you're clueless you're just clueless, but as a woman when you act foolishly it's often attributed to your gender. I worry that might be more thing in a place with fewer women.

I haven't bought the handbook yet but somebody told me that the 5th edition is the one I should get.

Also, are there any good YouTube channels that can teach me the basics? I see the value in having a handbook for reference, but I'm more of an auditory learner.
>>
>>18700875
I got into it through my coworkers, this 39 year old lady who plays diablo and tabletop with her husband. Pretty cool folks. I don't know what it's like at a shop but it's a niche hobby. No one is going to turn away someone who wants to learn because they're a woman. Just watch what the other players are doing and ask questions if you need to. Magic is not for everyone. You might like deck building games like clank. It's easy to learn and pretty fun when you get a game going

I am finishing high school, and this brings up some important questions about my career. I'm sure this gets asked a lot and I've already googled around, finding mixed answers. I have thought about becoming an author, since that is my natural talent and I have scored very high on various English testing before. I also am proficient in other fields except for non-trig math. Would getting a degree in English composition or something else related to writing really be as useless as they say? From other things I've seen, STEM degrees seem to not be the best choice either. Although that may just be for scientists going to graduate school and perhaps a bachelors in ecology would do me much better, I don't know. Degrees seem to be becoming more and more worthless so maybe I should just go learn a skill or something and become an electrician. What do you think?

Unless you're naturally talented or genuinely interested in STEM, don't do it. At best, you'll land yourself a good job but be miserable. At worst, you'll be just as unemployable as you could have been with any degree.

And if you don't know what you want to do, take a year or two off to decide. That would give you time to give being an author a go (an English degree really won't help with this, by the way) and you can get a job for money and work experience alongside it.
>>
>>18700853
Do whatever the hell you want, OP. Life's too short to be trapped in a career you hate. I study a STEM meme career (Bio) and you have two options in here.
1. Academia: Become a competitive asshole, fuck with your lab partners' experiments so they won't succeed (I've seen it happen), become your professor's pet until you can get your PhDs and Masters and a bunch of papers that say you're cool and compete all your life for grants and faculty positions.
2. Industry: You can follow the industry path where you get to work for a company, hopefully get a decent paycheck and benefits but all your dreams of being a researcher go to trash. Your academia colleagues will laugh at you for "selling out" and being a slave to "evil" companies.

In a nutshell, going for a STEM degree is only for those who are really REALLY interested and invested in it. It won't net you a lot of money (unless math degree 300k starting) and you'll probably be unhappy for the rest of your working life.
In my opinion, you should choose learning a skill and at the same time work on being an author, fuck the English degree, you don't need that to write.
Best of luck, OP.

Anything that involves a majority of women is meme. I don't say this in a sexist way, either.

My ex gave my 16 year old daughter a old beat up pick up truck. The bumper was held on by chicken wire. My daughter let me use it to haul some leaves to the dump. While I had the truck, the bumper literally fell off. I told my daughter. My ex calls me minutes later yelling and demanding I get it fixed. I told her no. Was i wrong and what do?

Just take 10 minutes and fix it with more chicken wire like you should've when it fell off.

>Was i wrong
No, stuff happens, and crappy broken things tend to break again. If you're going to fix something right then do it properly the first time. Only an idiot takes a shortcut only to have to re-take it again.

>what do?
Should have just lied to your ex and told them you'd get it fixed, whether you actually do or not is irrelevant, but because obviously you seem to care about their input into the matter. What do you do now though? If you care about what you're ex thinks then you'd call them and tell them you'll get it fixed, again whether or not you do this is up to you.

Can't you just pick a normal taxi company? it's usually the same price, decent cars, they have apps now, only difference is that they have a physical office you can walk into.

If that's fine you can phone them right now and ask how much. It's not like they close.

Yeah I gotta say, I got in with uber because everyone was saying how much cheaper it is than taxi's but fuck, I ordered one to take my drunk ass home last weekend. 14 miles and cost me like 30 bucks. Taxi would have been about the same.
