How the fuck do people pick what they want to do for a career? It's so damn hard there's literally millions.

You could do auto repair, stock car racing, there's contractors, there's inspectors, nurses, doctors, analysts, data entry, plumbing, audio engineer, technician, just so many

I'm 24 and I can't fucking pick

I either wanna do music or college. I kind of wanted to be a motorcycle repair person but I can go to college for free so I don't see the point in paying for trade school. Also I don't even know if I can get into college let alone pay my own rent and shit.

Probably want to major in business since I'm more well rounded

From the time that I graduated high school I had that cloud hanging over my head as well. All those choices, and I haven't even identified what it was that I enjoyed to do. For four years, from the ages of 18-22, I fucked about and worked weird jobs and got nowhere. I realized that if I wanted to live a comfy life, I needed to suck it up and get a degree doing something that won't make me want to off myself. I started to observe my days.

>wake up
>stay in room all day

I love being inside. I love working and being alone. I love being on the computer and I think code might be magic, so I decided why not programming? Picked the best uni around for a programming major, did some research asked some questions and decided on a school.

I just started, but it's important that I put myself on a track. I think that's the thing, not fucking about. As long as you're on a track, it feels damn good. OPie, stop analyzing. Pick something, do it. Lose your mind and come to your senses.

they are kids in other parts of the world that been suffering from malnutrition since the day they were born and probably are going to be dead before they hit half your age.
Think about it man, whatever problem you think you have, it could be always be way worse. Focus in the positive and don't yourself let down about stupid things that in the big scheme are meaningless.

Its mainly brought on by her huge family. Ive met her entire family that lives in the U.S. with plans to take me with them to spain to meet more. I guess seeing a fictional full family has altered my perspective of what a normal or acceptable family should be. Ifs also just a strange thing to mot have a family even thou no one has died

I mean, I can't relate completely with you because I'm not a "chad" but I can relate to the non-functional family part.
Just move up and forge your own life, you don't have to stuck with your family your whole life.

How do I learn to just tone it down?

I've heard it dozens of times. I'm funny, I'm charismatic, I bring up everyone's mood, etc. Girlfriends, friends, coworkers, I've heard it all the time. I'm animated and energetic, I talk fast, have rapid fire jokes, and tease people, sometimes pretty heavily, but in a way that makes it fun to come back at me. I'm just a really socially engaging person.

I've also heard that sometimes I'm too much, I'm exhausting, I'm draining, and I'm the kind of person you have to be in the mood for. I had an ex girlfriend who said she felt a little relieved when we broke up because I was too much for her sometimes. Even when we were having a quiet night in, I'd still have that sort of antagonistic sense of humor that got in the way of her trying to relax. My coworkers have said when it's business time and I'm still trying to socially engage people while I'm working (because I can do both and really well) it gets really irritating. It can get in the way of having more intimate conversations with people

I don't feel as though I'm disliked through hearing this. On the contrary, the stark majority of people I know like me. But I know it's a place where I could improve socially. But when I try to restrain myself I'm just buzzing with energy waiting to get out. Even when I'm at home alone I get so stir crazy and want to release everything. Whenever I'm low energy, I feel absolutely miserable and start to over-caffeinate.

Part of me wonders if I should even change it or just embrace who I am, even the annoying parts.

What do I do?

Holy shit, reading this took all my energy, man.
I don't know, I know a lot of people like you. I don't really like being around them, but of course I'll laugh along and that. It's not that I think they're bad people, but I'm pretty much the opposite, so having somebody constantly pressuring me into some social context is annoying. Out of kindness I'm not going to tell them to fuck off, but hell if I'm not thinking it. It's like those people who just constantly talk non-stop when you tell them that you have to go, and they're like trying to talk to you through the crack in the door as you're leaving. Just... go away already. Read the atmosphere.

>>18096368
It's like they're more concerned with telling the latter half of their story, or whatever joke they've got on mind than the other persons comfort and time. Not unpleasant, but there is a time and place for that shit, and it's important to know when it is and isn't.

>>18096376

Well fantastic. Now that we've established that people like me are annoying and undesired, how can I be less of an imposition on the lives of others in the future? Maybe I should go to a country with a different native language so people find it easier to ignore me.

why does hitting someone give me an erection

That's normal. It's actually why boxing and UFC exist. The reason they wear cups is because it wouldn't be TV appropriate to have their erections flopping all over the ring.

Fun fact: in Ancient Greece, the Pankration fighters fought naked with raging hardons the whole time. Once the winner subdued the loser, the tradition was to further demonstrate dominance by fucking the loser in his ass while he still was in whatever lockdown position subdued him. It's also why Gaul elite earriors fought wars naked.

TL;DR: Martial arts have a ~4000 year history of gay sex.

One could argue popping a boner while hitting someoen is a physiological reaction that evolved to make defending one's family that much more pleasurable. Too bad it can also create problems like wifebeating and general violence. It can also lead to extreme BDSM fetishism.

not sure what i'm looking for, but i just found out my dad has prostate cancer that has progressed pretty far and he has to get surgery to remove it...

My dad has stage two prostate cancer, and had to have his prostate removed. What you have to realize is that the survival rate over a five year period for Stage 2 prostate cancer is almost 100%. As far as cancer goes, prostate cancer is one of if not the most survivable. Even stage 3 is almost 100% survival rate over 5 years.

It sucks. Try to spend as much time with him as you can. Do some fun shit. I don't know your situation, but if something does happen, you don't want to look back and feel like you could've done more with the time you had.

id say it's mostly possible through rich parents. basically everyone ive met in nyc who doesn't work a night shift, either is a liar, has a great non-basic job, or has their parents pay for their shit.

you need to have modern survival skills, a marketable skill, and a set of friends who wouldn't let you rot in the street. maybe every part of LA is expensive by comparison, but of course there are low-end housing options in almost every city.

I mean I saw some stuff on Craigslist for 700 I don't see how that's as hard as everyone says. I mean if minimum wage is 10 an hour and you work 40 hours a week then

4(10x40) gives you 1600 a month and assuming you paid 250 or so into taxes then you'd have 1350 so 100 for transpiration 700-800 for rent 200 for food still should leave you something

Get his phone and post something extremely racist on social media. Then retweet it\share it\reblog it saying how you're disgusted. You can ruin his life if people notice it and start giving it attention.

Something evil enough to leave a bad impression for a while, but nothing that will cause permanent damage to his life
permanent damage to the friendship is fair game

In a LDR with boyfriend who acts psychotic
What the fuck is wrong with him?
He's verbally abusive, has major anger issues, an alcoholic and cokehead, told me he hit an ex that he met and sent her to the hospital after we were broken up for 4 months, is always accusing me of cheating on him or lying, tells me that I act like I don't give a fuck when I clearly do, he is always on the run from the cops, and right now he's in the most serious trouble he's ever been in. Let's just say it's capital crime and he has legally changed all of his information and is planning on moving out of state. He's fucking insane. He literally acts like a sociopath but I know he has love. I've seen him cry over a lost friend, and him being in a relationship with me is pointless if he's trying to get something out of it, right? Because like I said, it's a LDR. But what kind of person am I dealing with? He's got a lot of negative shit that I've already said about him, but I know deep down he's got a good heart. He'll call me beautiful, tell me he loves me, we watch movies together on the phone, but then he gets these random psycho outbursts and will say things and act like I have no feelings, and if I try defending myself he'll start saying shit like if I don't shut the fuck up, he won't talk to me ever again. But he just says that because he loves to win an argument and hear me act like I'm sorry, when there's no reason I should be. Don't ask why I'm still with him. All I'm gonna say is that I love him for his good side. But what is wrong with him? I know it's only LDR, but we're serious about it and have been planning on moving in with each other after he visits. I just want to know how I can make things better, and what kind of mental issue does it sound like he might have?

>what the fuck is wrong with him

by your own admission he's a drug addict so there's problem one. his substance abuse probably stems from and exacerbates whatever shitty part of his personality that makes him act that way

>i just want to know how i can make things better

you can't. he needs to get sober and get real help and you need to get away from him. he's not worth it. the way he treats you is an extension of how he feels about you and if it's this bad now it'll only be worse if you move in.

you can't change people, people have to make that decision for themselves.

>>18096222
Just get away from him. One day all that abusiveness may turn physical and you will be in the first line of fire. And if you think you can change him. You can't...

I've been depressed my whole life and late into my teen years I've started experiencing strong anxiety and fucked up my sleeping routine.
I'm an actor without money, 20 years old, living with parents. Right now I got super lucky and got a big part in a play, they'll even pay me, but I'm so anxious about it that I have panic attacks before reading the script, and have to memorize 200 lines in 2 days.
If I fuck up now I might need years and years of scouting to get someone else to hire me because this is my only contact here.
How do I get my shit together in time for the first rehearsal?

Damn, good timing on this post anon, I've recently been getting help for panic attacks/anxiety/sleeping routine myself. I know how it feels, and it sucks the life out of you, but you gotta keep pushing forward. Sit your ass down, memorize your lines, and look forward to a fat wad of cash once you're done. Don't give up an opportunity as good as yours for some temporary security which will only make you feel worse, and in the end, dig yourself a deeper hole into depression and anxiety that'll be even harder to get out of.

I'd recommend seeing a doctor ASAP as well. I know you probably won't be able to get one in two days, but once you're done your script, it's the best thing I can suggest for you. Tell them EVERYTHING; your depression, anxiety, panic attacks, etc. It's their job to help people anon, even if you feel a little weird explaining it, they've inevitably heard stranger cases. If what they give you works, great; if it doesn't, then try something else. I'm on my 4th prescribed medication and only now did I find something that actually helped. I know it's rough now anon, but I'll be rooting for you. Never give up, no matter how tough it might seem now.
>>
>>18096242
I already have the number of a specialist, thing is panic attacks prevent him from calling her.
It's kind of stupid that I have to solve the problem of anxiety and starting activities in order to see a medi that will help me with that problem.

Long story short:
Finally had a date with an older guy in my class (business school) after months of him pushing me away and also me being stupid and thinking just being around him would work. If you want an image imagine the corny scenario of me being the preppy girl and him being the bad boy, even though he seems to be just very closed off, but that's pretty much it.
The important part:
Near the end of the night, we were sitting close on the couch at my place (we had been studying and I invited him over for dinner). I moved a little bit closer and he put his arm around me. Alright, so far so good. I looked up at him to see what he was possibly thinking and we started making out. I'll admit I might have gotten a bit worked up and maybe been trying to take my shirt off, but he stopped me and said
>Let's not move to quick on this.
I don't know the look I gave him, but it seemed to confuse him so he followed up with
>Let's wait a bit on this part until we're a little more relaxed around each other.
So I guess the question is:
Did I scare him off?
How do I tell when I'm visibly nervous?
I'm not sure what impression I gave him or if this is just a rule for him or if this is a game guys like him might play.

There is a possibility that he is interested in you for a relationship or something and just doesn't want to fuck it up into a 1 night type of thing. But Honestly everyone is different and weird, so you gotta ask him the questions. Not much help is gonna come from here with so little info.

I am desperate to get out of my house and find a place to live. But I can only afford $400 a month, the issue is that I live in New York. I was hoping to stay in the Bronx as all of my friends and my boy friend lives here. Does anyone know how to look for people that are looking for roommates and that aren't very sketchy? I need a place to live as soon as possible. My number one wish would be to live in the Morris Park section of the Bronx. But people are asking for someone that will essentially pay all of their rent for them in that area. How do people find people to live with?

I live in a town of less than 2000 in Ireland, I'm 20, I have 0 experience in work of any kind, and have no friends, connections, or social skills.

the thing with applying to jobs is this: dont hope you got the job, you gotta know you got the job. only way you can do that is to make everything on your resume make you feel like anybody would want to hire you.

Is it normal to like and despise your crush at the same time? They like me back but there are few small things about them that annoy me.

>dumb as shit basket weaving tier major
>passive aggressive
>sensitive
>sarcastic/try hard humor
>annoyingly eccentric
>extremely depressed
>don't have many things in common

Are these red flags something I should be concerned about?

Here are the pros
>genuinely nice/caring
>honest
>not ugly
>somewhat intelligient
>presentable
>good hygenie
>good group of friends
>does well in social situations
>similar taste in music


How do I know if I only like someone just because they like me?


If you want to be w/ someone you should have mostly positive thoughts about them right? I mean... no one is perfect but you shouldn't resent them at all right?

Well I can't really offer advice but rather say you kinda sound like me. The only 2 times in my life someone said they liked me and I decided "okay cool, let's try this!" was the moment I started nitpicking flaws about them. Being overly judgemental as if I was looking for an excuse to dump them, you know? Didn't take long until I did it but I regret not being more open minded and understanding. Nobody will ever be 100% perfect, having unachievable standards will only leave you alone in the end

ahhh oh god, I am extremely judgmental. My image means everything to me. I'm slightly embarrassed by them in public when I'm around other people for no particular reason. I understand that your partner can reflect you and I do not want to give that power to anyone.
