I'm sorry for how long this will be. I feel it's hard to explain the situation without going into detail. So skip to the end if you don't want a story.

START OF STORY

So a little back story, I have a guy I've been friends with for about 5 years now. We became roommates and eventually FWBs about 3 years ago. He said he was really attracted to me and wanted to keep seeing each other in secret in order to not make things awkward with the other roommates (especially since one is rather religious in her values) and because he wasn't interested in a serious relationship at the time. However, He said wouldn't go looking at other girls, cause that would be stupid. I said wouldn't go looking for other guys. Agreements were made and we had a blast. Outside of not going on official dates, we were inseparable and had a really great connection and chemistry. Eventually though, I caught a case of the feels and really fell in love with him. I wanted to take our casual relationship more seriously and when I confronted him about it, he pushed away hard. At first saying he was confused and wanted to able to give me the relationship I wanted, but due to our living situation he felt he couldn't. Then a few months later he broke it off and said he never had any feelings for me. I was heartbroken. After a week he told me he missed me and we went back to exactly what we had been doing. I felt scared to push for more at this point because pushing was what pushed him away to begin with. Anyway for the next 9 months we had been keeping our casual relationship, everything seemed like it was moving smoothly and he was even treating me a bit better.

Cue in our new roommate, who is a young fresh 20 year old college girl and little sister to the religious valuing roommate who just left us because she got married. The three of us have been great friends. I noticed about 2 months ago that their friendship though was getting a little too close for me to be comfortable, they hung out all the time and would go out and do everything together, but he was still very sweet and caring towards me and we were still having sex no problem, so I felt okay.
>>
About a month ago though he broke it off with me again because he is into the little sister, but he still wants me to be his friend because he says he still really cherishes the friendship and couldn't imagine me not in his life at this point. He feels bad because he thinks I don't deserve this, that I deserve perfection in any relationship I'm in. However I feel really heartbroken, I really love him and the idea that I would have to live with watching him pursue another roommate in front of me is pure torture. So I'm in the process of moving out and he got really sad about it, he even cried. He felt really guilty knowing his choice was the cause. He feels so close to me and is super confused, saying that the whole situation just seems so grey, nothing is black and white for him. He doesn't want me too leave and kept trying to coerce me to stay, saying that I could just live in both places, or only leave temporarily while I take online classes. I told him I certainly don't want to go, I simply have to for myself. He hugged me super tight, held my hands and looked me in the eyes, then teared up, hugged me tighter and once again reiterated I don't deserve this... then got stiff a bit, but nothing came of that. However I felt mixed with my decision to leave and felt like maybe we could be okay.

Anyway, I'm was back in my parents house this weekend. He came to visit a friend who actually lives pretty close to me, and invited me out to hang with them. I went over and it felt like a mess. He treated me nice enough, but I felt uncomfortable when he kept telling the other people I was moving back down and stuff excitedly. The other girl got invited too (she visited from an hour away from her parents since she was away for spring break). I felt kind of out of place there and he kept giving her all the attention in the world, and wasn't really paying attention to me too much until she left. Then after that he barely spoke to me even though it was just the two of us gaming at that point. He kept being concerned for her since it was late and she had an hour drive. Kept thinking to call her. I felt so uncomfortable! Then it was awkward when I left because it felt weird to be treated more like a visitor than a close friend. But then while driving away he immediately acted the same way he did with her, worrying about me getting home. I felt nice knowing he cared about me well-being. Then today he ignored any of my texts.

END OF STORY

I just feel so thrown about. Should I bother trying to keep this man in my life? I love him so deeply and I do want him to be happy. I really don't want to lose him in my life because despite how shitty everything has been, I want to be by his side and keep loving him. But it hurts immensely to love someone who can't help but look at someone else and becomes so hot and cold all the time. I want to be his friend and everything but I can't just backtrack on the feelings I let cultivated and develop for years. I also can't tell if he is really serious about the girl he's into right now, or if that will go anywhere. I really want to be with him and I don't know if I have any hope of that anymore... What do you all think?

I have no idea why but I am absolutely terrible with closing.


I can get girls, not to sound cocky, but that's easy. I just can't seal the deal and continue it any farther than talking to them and light flirting.

I'm just terrified I guess that she'll say no or reject me.

Like last night, I met this girl while I was out with my friend and she apparently told my friend "Yeah he's too nice, but if he makes a move I'll definitely finish it"

She even told me she wants to tuck me. But I ended up taking her home and we just parked in a parking lot and talked for a good 4 hours. She's cool as fuck, but I just couldn't ring myself to make a move. How do I get over this?

lol no you can't get girls.

You get over it by just doing it, rejection is a part of life. Shit happens, even if she says no, so what??

I didn't have any other way to say it, you're basically making a sale anyway. You're selling yourself, and I just can't close the deal.

My sister works at a sushi bar as a hostess and this fat white guy always comes in and hits on her and has been bothering her for quite some time, he even touched her by the waist, people say she's above average for an asian girl so I don't blame her for getting hit on, but that was too much

She told me today that she saw him following her while driving home and had to go into a different neighborhood. we ended up calling the police but because nothing actually happened, no police report was filed.

She doesn't have a boyfriend and she doesn't have a lot of guy friends cause she doesn't sleep around, how do I make sure this man doesn't bother her again? How could I find where he lives or what his name is to teach him a lesson? I don't mind getting jail time because I really don't have much of a future.

Thanks.

If he really was following her, I suggest you tell her to ask the manager who his name is, or if he comes back again, try to make your sister get his name.

Or wait at the restaurant and when he leaves, follow him and beat his ass and break some bones. He might be a potential rapist, so kill him if you want to.

Jerk of into a squirt gun for a week. Follow him like this dude says^ and if he gets to your sister just super soak him

Why are more old school blacks like hairier on their body and have shit hairlines? But ALL the blacks from modern culture and trendy cities are perfect genetically

Young thug, all the Chicago guys, future, migos, ASAP rocky. They are all completely hairless on their body with perfect hairlines

Does personality effect this?

I'm not even a racist man, but I can assuredly say that black americans are LUCKY we enslaved them. Many blacks I know don't workout, eat like shit and do drugs yet have awesome physiques, age incredibly well and like you said have great hairlines and relatively low body hair.

Blacks I've met from africa, or the Afro-Caribbean area are very different physiologically.

What happened to computer science degrees being a good STEM degree to get?

Is the meme around here true that CS degrees are shit now? I'm 2nd year in and feel the challenge is rewarding but I graduate is it going to be shit?

Should I jump ship into another STEM field maybe physics or engineering?

CS is still fine, but the trick is that SW Engineering is probably closer to what you really want.

Colleges just didn't use to have SWE, or at least not distinct from CS.
>>
Just like every other STEM degree, CS is becoming more and more saturated. People are being pushed towards CS and other STEM fields because they're essentially seen as get-rich-quick degrees. It's just happening faster with CS than other fields because it's 'easier'.
>>
CS is still probably the easiest degree that you can make 60k out of college with

Its just harder to get a software job now then it was 10 years ago due to saturation of market

Do it if you want, its pretty boring though

she could be lonely, maybe she doesnt have a lot of friends. usually those people are depressed if they have to stoop to those levels. (unless she looks like a whore)
>>
>>18142983
You fucking her good OP?

If not, she might still want a second ticket on the cock carousel

Either way, you need to be in the mindset that you have multiple women that you are currently seeing/fucking even though you have a GF so if she leaves you it doesn't even fucking affect you cause you had other hotter women and multiple partners that she didn't know about and that it was just her turn to fuck you.

If not you will be stuck in a void of depression and alcohol, my man.

I highly suggest start flirting with more girls outside of your comfort zone and getting numbers/spinning plates

Is "prediabetes" a real condition or is it just a made up term to scare people into paying attention to their health?

Yes it's real.
>just to scare people into paying attention to their health

You're a special kind of stupid, are you anti-vax too?

Prediabetes is a real thing. Does it mean you're going to get diabetes for sure? Nah.

Like you said, mostly a thing to scare people into taking better care of themselves.
>>
>>18143005
my next question is, if someone with "pre-diabetes" starts taking care of themselves, will they still be "pre-diabetic" for the rest of their life (i.e. pre-diabetes is under control) or is it a condition that can be cured?

Please help I cannot enjoy sex

I'm a grill in college and I come off as very normal to most. I have no problem with getting someone to want to sleep with me, but as soon as their clothes come off I can't go through with it. Seeing the naked body of my ex-boyfriend literally disgusted me; I don't know what's wrong with me.

I still experience sexual desire, but I often can only get off to things like statues and paintings and scenes in movies and literature. I think it might be because that things I've seen in movie and TV are so hyper-sexualized and perfect that the real thing pales in comparison. What do I do?

As a 30 year old guy, what should I do about my great girlfriend that wants kids when I don't?

And my parents, who want a grandkid, but won't ever have one? My mom keeps talking about how she's close to death.

I have the means and I'm good with kids, but I have no interest.

You could lie and tell them you had a vasectomy that isn't reversible.

On the other hand, you could go for the "overpopulation" meme. Say the world is already too crowded and you would adopt a kid from Africa before overpopulating your first-world country with another mouth to feed.

The second is more likely to work.

Im your age and in the exact same position but female. I just keep saying 'yeah for sure in the future!' meanwhile my biological clock is ticking. Basically procrastinate until it's too late. Im sure people will feel bad and think you have reproductive issues so will stop asking eventually. Not the best advice but has worked so far. Might wanna let your girl know though because its not fair to lie to her. Just drop comments on the shitty things parents have to deal with and say how happy you are that you don't have them. She'll take the hint

Just make sure she doesn't find out that first world countries are actually experiencing declining population.

This happened on Thursday. I can't stop thinking about it. I look at slack late at night and she's up too.
I can't remember if she explicitly asked me up to her room or if I helped along. I don't know if she was asleep all the times I touched her.
I can't stop thinking about if she likes me. I've never had anyone this pretty give me this kind of attention before, but I feel like the girl I started dating is somewhere still in my girlfriend.
I feel so excited from thinking about being close to her now, but also deeply embarassed. Also, I know it will never work. She lives too far away and will find someone else.
I don't know if my professional life is over. We worked together fine on Friday and she's even been nice to me since then. Luckily, I'm going on a different project for a while and coming back. I hope that we can work together fine.
I feel like I've gotten my cake and I didn't eat it.
How do I stop thinking about this? What do?

I don't know WHAT to make of her behaviour. I've been unsure about how women feel about me before, but I've never been unsure about how I want them to feel about me.
She doesn't seem upset at least, but she's a crazy friendly person.
>>
I guess I just don't love my girlfriend anymore, but not enough to break up with her. I made her a promise that she could come here and she's not bringing any of her stuff. I feel like the clock is ticking on if I want to break up with her without ruining her life. I'm incredibly selfish. As you can probably tell by my behaviour, I'm also a coward. Breaking up with someone is hard.

I've never written out my difficult memories as they've been stuck in my head like this before. Helped a lot.

Need last minute advice.

I'm quitting my job tomorrow that I haven't had for long - but I work from home. Planning on giving two weeks. Should I have a resignation letter already prepared? I'm not sure if they'll want to keep me for two weeks.

And should I wait until my 11 am call with my boss, or call her first thing in the morning?

Turn in the written resignation letter, not phone call. The resignation letter needs to be as short as possible. No explanations or poetry. Simply state you are resigning. That's it.
>>
Just contact your manager first thing in the morning and inform him/her that you're re-signing and that you're giving your two weeks notice.

If a resignation letter is required, just open up Microsoft Word and type a quick one out.
>>
>>18142974

Like I said, I work from home. I can't just leave a letter in an inbox and never email anyone again. I need to talk about my end date and shit too.
