I have a problem, my aunt and friends are always telling me things like "Why don't you get a girlfriend" or "Are you gay? i still don't see you with a girl" but the problem is every girl i meet, is the same boring , im not like a super handsome guy but if i'm going to make an effort it has to worth it, i just dont see any girl that really worth it and to be honest , the majority of the time it's because i'm scared of being rejected or stuff like that , what should i do?
Live in misery and die alone. It has worked for me thus far.

You're afraid of being rejected and you rationalize your fear through "I have not found girls who worth it"
That was my mindset 2 years ago actually. If you care enough to make change, go approach girls. Go approach girls you've known for some time, be it your friend or someone, try to advance things with her.
The point is to make yourself experience and familiar with rejection so you'll be able to brush it off like it's no thing.
How long can I stay in a swimming pool on my period with a tampon In.
I now have no doubt in my mind that women are retarded children.

WTF? You are stupid for even asking.
I want to go to college, I graduated high school eight months ago. What are steps I should take to get where I want to be? I live up north in the U.S. but the colleges I want to go to are down south, I only have ~$300 to my name as of right now. Majors that interest me are aerospace engineering, computer science and if I must choose a technical college then automotive.
Tried to be quick and to the point. What do you have to say?
>>18101909
If you're poor, then start at a community college, and transfer to a state school.

You're main problem is figuring out a way to pay for college. You can accomplish this in a few ways. Taking out a loan is what most people do, but it's a lot of debt to take on, and probably not the most ideal path for you. You could join the military, which would give you free college plus additional income. You'd only have to actually work in the military for 2 years, but you would have money saved up and no debt, which would put you ahead of your peers. You could also apply for a lot of vocational scholarships and try to get into a technical college. Not many people choose to go to vocational schools these days, so they give out a lot of scholarships to people interested in attending them. You might even be able to find a full paid scholarship in the form of an apprenticeship or something.
Also, I'd only choose to get into engineering if you're confident in your physics, math, and science skills and your ability to study. College math and chemistry is a lot tougher than high school. If you got bad grades in high school you won't do well in engineering.
competition is fun when I win
I take things pretty far though and drive people I play with away
can I play games (such as soccer, chess, league of legends, etc) with a non competitive attitude or should I avoid them altogether
what do non competitive people do for fun?
If they don't like it maybe they should win more
Fuck it, dude. Competition is fun, indeed. Find people to compete against.

How do I leave my shit small town for Miami
>>18101897
I live in Miami. And sometimes, I wanna move to a small town. Ain't ths,at sumn...
This city is alright, but it ain't all it cranked up to be. If you have money, and can afford to live in a decent part of town, sure why not. If you're broke, better have a skill or trade to sustain you. Cost of housing here is 40% of ones earnings, which is I think 10% above the national average. The expressway (I-95) gets backed up like a brick. The people are all together less social than most people in the bible belt, not nearly as nice imo, though of course like any place you encounter exceptions.
>>18101897
When I was 16 I packed up my bags, found a place to crash with some of the money I'd saved - and built from there.
Miami is expensive is fuck though, and that's why I left it. I currently live in Las Vegas.
The hardest part is just to take the leap, rather than to make it work. Once you're in the water you'll learn to swim real quick.
I'M IN MIAMI BITCH
Why am i such an heartless asshole?
My cat has gone missing and everytime my mother cries about it i laugh like an asshole, this happens when my father has sharp pain while eating too (he has trigeminal neuralgia).
I even laugh at people with weird voices, when they commit mistakes and stuff like that
Why am i like this? how do i make this stop?
>>18101867
Laughing like an asshole is probably how you cope with uncomfortable situations.
>>18101871
I don't know, i laugh like that even in situations that are not uncomfortable
>>18101945
That's because you're uncomfortable so often that laughing at everything has become your general defense mechanism and barrier between you and anything that might get close enough to you to make you uncomfortable. The cat makes you remember you're mortal. Your father choking makes you remember that your parents are too. Rather than acknowledge these feelings, you're choosing to just react to them in the primate way that says "everything's okay, don't worry!" That's why you laugh. You do it because deep inside you're tremendously insecure.
Had a big party here yesterday, great people, played beerpong, bomberman and some awesome card games, everyone had a good time I think. But... even around all these people I felt lonley, I dont know where that feeling came from?
My life is good, I have a job, my own place, a car, good friends and a great relationship with my family, but last night I felt so alone even if all these people were around me.
What is this weird feeling, ive never had it before? help please
we're all alone buddy.
get that under your belt and you're free to leave.
>>18101866
Don't dwell on it. No matter what, were alone
What are good jobs where I can meet new people and make friends?
I'm about to finish my MA this semester but I don't want to spend my life sitting in front of a computer 24/7. Uni is one thing, but I've done 2 internships before and while the people where nice and all, it was still horrible for me to just sit there everyday for 8-9 hours straight and program stupid shit.
Finance? There are some hot chicks in sales
A lot of us are assholes admittedly
>>18101850
but isn't that mostly sitting on a desk and doing boring stuff, too?
>>18101845
Public service?
We mainly just fuck around and chat. Not that much work gets done.

Am I destined to be a failure?
No. One problem at a time. Don't think of the past or the future. Do what is necessary for yourself in the present . There is no success without failure. There is no failure without trying.
You got five good reasons, my friend. Just do it.
So my dad seems to be falling for some sort of pyramid scheme
It's not Amway specifically, but they get stuff delivered from Amway and other MLM companies.
They recruit people, then get the people who they recruited to recruit a handful, etc etc.
Dad just tried to recruit me and my brother, and when I joked that it sounded like a pyramid scheme he got really pissed off at me and Mum came to his defence.
I'm not sure what to do, he's been going to its meetings with the nice neighbour across the road and both my parents got super defensive super quickly when I expressed my skepticism.
>>18101831
So just draw a picture of the multi layer marketing to your parents and say this reminds me of some structures in Egypt.
>>18101831
Look up more information on the pyramid scheme they're apart of and try to find bad reviews of it. If it actually is a pyramid scheme, I guarantee you there will be some people online complaining about it.
How do I stop caring so much about what others think of me? I just keep ending up feeling depressed and rejected
Just delude yourself into thinking you have a higher opinion
Channel the Donald
When I was young I was like you. In the years I met all kinds of different people, some of them belived I was a retard, some believed I was a genius, some that I was cool, others that I was boring etc
To draw I conclusion, you cannot trust others on having a reasonable opinion on yourself
So I have conceded defeat on my biggest goal in life, to have a gf ever. I'm 26 and never hugged a girl. I don't anticipate this ever changing honestly, and I don't think it's reasonable to think it could. And this is fine, some (extraordinarily few) people are meant to be this way, against their will. And it's fine, it's something I have to accept. Even if I managed to earn lots of money, she'd only leave once she took enough to be happy with the next guy who came around. I will never be good enough. I will always be worthless.
Now that that's understood, I'd really appreciate advice on how to live life knowing this blatantly obvious fact. How can I be "happy" or at least not think about hurting or killing myself because I'm worthless?
OP you have your entire life ahead, you never know what awaits you in the future and also tell me who is worthy or worthy of what?
>>18101814
You say that your biggest goAL is to have a gf. What steps have taken and what steps are you taking to reach this goal?
>>18101814
you still have 20-30 years of active sex life in front of you and you're still only 10 years in. that's 3/4 of the way. there's 3/4 ahead of you and you're already giving up
Ive been alot into the smoking stuff this days One of my friends has a hooka with fruit flavors every weed me and my friends enjoy it because we like it we are saving some money but i dont know in what i should invest In a good vape or a good hookah i need some recommendations please.
Smoking hooka is proven to be worse for you than cigs. Dont smoke anything.
i thought hooka was like smoking 40 cigs,that aint good but you're better off smoking nothing OP maybe once in a while do but you shouldnt make it a habbit
Hookah is fun as shit to smoke, I used to come home from work and pack some shisha and weed and just chill out for an hour or so smoking it everydat. I'd say go for it, but smoke only about a full bowl or two a day. Starts to hurt if you smoke more than that
Yeah it's unhealthy, who gives a fuck
Tried vaping for a while, it was fun at first but the douchery surrounding it turned me off to it. And yeah you do get a buzz but it really doesn't beat smoking actually tobacco in my opinion
Where do you meet girls if you don't like bars or clubs?
Work seems like too small of a world which could create more problems then anything and I'm not going to school so that's out of the question
Out in public, book store, a cafe, people working at their jobs (depending), through other friends, online dating sites, extra curricular activities, match making service, bars and clubs (there are different kinds, they're all not biker bars and dance clubs), parks, dog parks, mueseums, take a class (don't necessarily have to "go to school"), crash weddings, volunteer with a group, get to know your neighbours, just get to know other guys or people in general (the more people you know the larger your network, more potential girls you will meet through friends and acquaintances). I'm sure I could go on and on. Just keep doing things, the more interactions with people, the more likely one of those people will be a potential girl you can date.

anon, it's a crime to approach grills if you're ugly. How can I talk to women without my appearance immediately disqualifying me, outside of talking to drunk girls and dealing with the bottom of the barrel women who use dating websites?
Not OP btw
>>18101968
Dude, if you are so ugly that you cannot approach women without them freaking out, you are the bottom of the barrel.
Get over yourself.
Why am i afraid of making a talk with a girl that recently started to act like i've done something to her ? I dont think i've done something to her.. But she just acts weird and she deleted my phone number. She talks to me when she needs something but thats all.. What am i going to tell her ? How i'm going to tell her ?
Drop all beta behavior, it's her problem, not yours.
>>18101819
>>18101819
Well i like her.
What should i do?
