Just do some real recreational drugs, buddeh. And no need to use the autistic SWIM acronym on the internet. It actually does not protect you in any way what so ever.

Get a new webcam. They're not super expensive - cheap ones these days for $20 will be 10x better than one you bought ages ago.

Trim the back so it's more even. Go for an Elias Ronnenfelt style. Also get your eyebrows done, they're a little bushy.

Get that number my dude, You might find the one

Yes dude. If she clearly showed interest and her friends mentioned her number then that is definitely a green light. You did not miss your chance. Go for it.

Shameless self bump.

Do you have anything of actual value that you could put up as collateral for a loan? I suspect most banks are going to look at you as being a very bad risk.

That you're financially irresponsible and already in debt makes taking a loan a bad idea, as it's likely that the only place that would give you a loan are "payday loans" type operations that have extortionate interest rates.

You're better off asking your parents if you can borrow money from them, or if you have any property worth more than what you need, sell it.

>>18087680

cont'd:
i wasnt even over reacting, who keeps song playlists for the opposite gender and nudes from people X has hooked up with.

Sorry for the grammar, I'm typing on a phone. And yes you can hate me, I know what I'm doing is wrong and stupid.

>>18087652
>ldr boyfriend
>implying what youre doing is wrong

If at anything youre doing him a favor by getting her to show her true nature. You watch your back against this crazy bitch as well. Pump and dump

Really, you should just ask Stacey.
She may say yes. You never know.

>Stacy doesn't have property rights on femanon.
>Femanon is an autonomous human being with the hability to make her own decisions.
>Stacy isn't even your friend, she's just your friend's gf. No moral obligations of any kind with her
Go for it, don't be retarded.

You just need to start somewhere. I was told that I had great writing skills in school already, so writing has always been easy for me.

>>18087618

for me its a little different every time. sometimes ideas just come rushing out and you HAVE to do it, other times it takes more percalating.

for me it starts with the idea, i have to know exactly what the big hook is, which usually revolves around the ending.

then i step back and think about whats the most important character journey in relation to that. if i know how it ends then i have to think, how does it start?

then i have to think, how many steps does it take to get to that ending? i write those down, but they always grow, shrink or change as more ideas come or old ideas stop seeming to fit.

then i try outlining, i know a lot of people use this beat sheet:
https://timstout.wordpress.com/story-structure/blake-snyders-beat-sheet/

but not every story uses those beats exactly as you see them or at least not in that particular order. its great if you dont know where to start, but if certain details need to be moved around in time, don't be afraid.

once i have an outline i usually shop it around to friends who weigh in, as the outline is often not entirely complete.

for instance im working on a new idea for a mini series, and for the first episode i had most of the episode ready to write and even began drafting, but it was missing a big piece, the set up for the future episodes formula. i shopped it to friends and i actually came up with the missing piece myself, but being able to dialogue with people about it is what filled in the gap. talking to people tends to help even if you're an independent person. but if you dont have anyone to talk to feel free to talk to yourself, just do it out loud, or try writing out summaries.

anyways, once i have a completed outline i break that into acts and start writing one act at a time. sometimes i jump around in time and fill in gaps later but im generally pretty straight forward.

It depends what you call writing. If you are content with just some concepts, scattered plot points and such, just take note as inspiration arrive and develop as you can.
If you actually want to get through the whole process beginning until the end, you have to study a lot.
Both about writing and about the topic you are writing about. You ought to study style, language, structure, how to captivate, deux ex machina. And then people's behavior to make your characters coherent / believable. Once you have the structure together, the inspiration will eventually come to you and the story will write itself as you observe in your mind how do the characters would go by their daily lives as you add conflicts to guide them in the direction you want.
TL;DR Study and it will come to you

arent there free programs that test you for stds? i wouldnt know but ive seen fliers about it.
also if you dont use a condom with a whore youre a complete idiot, sorry.

You're fuvked

Whats wrong with smiling? Smiling is good. You see someone smiling and you feel a little better and then maybe you smile. Next thing you know the entire world feels a little less shit.

Also smiling is not flirting.

>>18087599
some of my professors appreciate me smiling back, some of them feel annoyed/self conscious about it.

>>18087602
How do you know? have you talked with each of your professors about how you smiling makes them feel or are you just guessing?

Either way if you feel like smiling then keep smiling and that is something they will have to deal with.

you don't need a CS specific degree to have a successful career in that field. Just add some electives to your courses and see if you like it, and if you do learn coding on your own and see if you can take it anywhere.

This is not surprising. As a psychologist, you are probably interested in how to predict human behavior from observed physical states, established habits, previously-known information, and input data, or vice versa. Computer science has the same objective, but for computers. The ultimate goal of computer science is the same as that of psychology: to understand human cognition well enough to create a complete computer model of how we think and behave. Study what pleases you. A true academic does not let the system determine the course of their explorations. If you put together a good portfolio of software, you will find programming or QA work somewhere.

Cut the gay shit. Admit you got out of hand and that you're cool now, and that you're trying to get down on some games whenever.

>>18087564
Apologize and tell him you realize you're being toxic/raging hard/whatever, and that you're working on it. (Then try to do that, getting upset at vidya so often probably isn't healthy) Just be honest.

Tell him you are sorry you got angry and then say you want to take a break from the competitive games and play some fun co-op adventure to unwind.

>>18087471
both but if you want to get all calculated about it women taste has a lot to do with it. There is no bare bones number.

Strive to be the best you can a both.
