My circumstances:
Growing up I never had any romantic interest in women and never pursued any, however I was otherwise fairly social[still having a decent group of friends of both genders]. Now at age 25 Im starting to get desires to have a relationship but find myself with no knowledge of how to approach women in anyway but as a friend or colleague.

The special factors that I see causing trouble
-As I will be finishing University in 8 months my ability to meet people have free time will be effectively cut to the bone indeed most of my peers are already in full time careers and or serious relationships.
-Because I didnt learn when I was young I know Im going to make a lot of blunders however I fear that given my age these will come off as me being creepy, odd or even a sexual harasser. People understandably expect a level of experience in this area which I just don't have.
- Me being liable to being manipulated or being particularly stupid because Ive never experienced romantic feelings first hand.

My question:
Given the above how should I progress?

You're like the fucking retarded women I've met who can't figure out how to spend less money than they have.

"Well no one taught me how to make a budget when I was younger, so I can't."

If you want to do it, you would try, try to figure out where you're failing, and then try again.

If you want to do it, what you're not going to do is sit there wishing the past were different, and completely fail to act.

>You're like the fucking retarded women I've met who can't figure out how to spend less money than they have.

Well its fairly easy to give targeted advice when it comes to budgeting beyond try and figure out where you are failing

Could you do the same in this circumstance

>If you want to do it, you would try, try to figure out where you're failing, and then try again.

I know, I was just seeing if there were any tips to help me better address those factors that are causing me trouble.
>>
>>18081934
No one knows where you're having trouble, and from what you've written, you're not having trouble -- you're simply not doing anything at all.

The comparison to "waah I can't learn to budget" isn't about an actual inability to do something, it's to illustrate that it's the same stupid, shitty attitude that YOU have.

As far as getting "tips", there's this web search engine called "Google", and with it you can find a lot more information and general advice that you ever will on 4chan. I'm surprised you've never heard of it.

Shit, you could even read other threads here on /adv to see what sort of advice people are giving for problems that are coming up.

Unless you are actually stupid, it looks like what you are seeking here isn't advice, but to whine and have people pat you on the head.

No skills or anything, I was drawing a bit long ago so decide to dl prokos tutorials and try my hand at it.
Pic related is the result, for me everything I do looks like shit, every joke is stupid and every serious thing I say as well.
Need help determining whether its something people would liked to read for shit and gigglez if I were to make some pathreon powered webcomic (Yeah, I know it doesnt take couple of weeks to get big like lets say.... Buckley)

Painting it with mouse took me few days so if something I would be drawing and colouring in pencil
Will try and dump something I drew in pen for comparison.
Since I am not really drawing regularly I have only few drawings I made recently.

I'm about to turn 26, but I feel like it's too late to start dating for the first time. I've never had a girlfriend before, just at this age, it feels like I'm expected to be experienced. So, it feels like it's too late.

27, soon to be 28 here. Still going nowhere fast, but I started seeing a therapist last week. Hopefully it actually helps and I'm not just blowing $100 an hour for nothing. I can't take another year of this non-life I've been living.

Hello, I hope I found the right board to ask for advice.
Some of the threads I visit on other boards contain images, but I can't view any of them. It's not my ISP and not my firewall, since I have the problem on other devices and networks too.
>pic related

EXAMPLE: >>>/hr/2804292
The thread should be SFW, it's supposed to be about bridges
>also pic related

Is this the same for you guys? If not, how do I work around it?

OP here again, forgot to mention: It's not just the thumbnails, clicking the actual images 404s as well.

Is that normal? I was wondering because the threads were still alive.
>>
I wanted to say, check the urls of the images, because there are like different servers and shit where these pics are hosted, but I checked that thread, it's not working on my end either and it's the same domain as some other threads which are working.

if you've got 4chanX installed, clicking on the image will automatically redirect to the archive.
>>
>>18083693
yeah, i'm using the archives but it's very tedious to do it for every image.

thanks for your help tho.
the more nsfw boards are full of threads like this, especially towards the bottom of the gallery.

Birth control is much less expensive than what an abortion would cost, and a quarter-million less than it would cost to raise a child.

I don't even know why you would chance it.

I've been there before, my friend.

Go into the interview with the mindset that you're there to amuse yourself. Confidence is the key, and be sure not to forget to ask a question when the employer asks if you've got any. They like if you do that.

Godspeed.

>meet girl at work, works in the same office
>same room
>develop crush
>one time, out after work, go for drinks
>have a few beers too much
>anime confession time
>tell her exactly how much i like her etc., basically lay my feelings completely out for her, everything
>sober me is shaking his head in disbelief
>of course she politely declines me, says she isnt leaving her boyfriend for anyone
>going to work everyday is now quite uncomfortable (for us both i believe)

Any tips on how should I deal with this in the best way?
Normally I'd just avoid her and eventually forget about her completely, but in this case I can't cos we work together, in the same fookin room even, desks next to each other. Also, I dont want to quit my job over this.

Tomorrow i'll spend my first day at my first job in a local company, any general useful advice to make a good impression? It's my very first working experience, i'm worried to make a bad start.
6 posts and 1 images submitted.

You already got the job, that's good impression enough. On most fundamental level you won't have the muscle memory, the capacity to parse the environment effortlessly, nor much knowledge, so take it easy and acclimate yourself.

On my first day in my new job I was being shown around some equipment. I reached out to grab and feel the weight of a gas cylinder with steel handles. I didn't realise that the handle was damaged and exceptionally sharp and I cut the palm of my hand open quite badly. Clenching my fist quite hard to slow the flow of blood I had to interrupt the guy showing me around and say "uh, you know when you want to make a good first impression on your first day, but instead immediately lacerate your hand? Do you think you could show me where the medical supplies are kept and uh, not hold this against me?".

Luckily they quickly moved past horrified and onto thinking it was quite funny. They swore that nobody had ever managed to do anything like that before despite the equipment being fucking damaged and razor sharp, so I guess just one of those things if you aren't aware of it.
>>
>>18083485
Look for the biggest guy you have at work and punch him in the face. This will show that despite being the new guy, you're not afraid of anyone.

Ask Yourself The Following:
1. Are the potential benefits significantly greater than the consequences of failure, which may include imprisonment or even death?

2. How well do I know my cohorts? Can I trust them to not sell me out at a moment's notice?

3. If I'm going to /adv/ for advice on how to do it, do I have any real business in this trade to begin with?

Britfag here.

Is there anyway I can get forced support for her? She hasn't got the will power to get better on her own and needs an outside force to set her straight so she can cope without drinking and starting fights, constantly screaming etc.

I grew up with an alcoholic mother. She wasn't abusive, though her behavior certainly wounded me both mentally and emotionally. I tried for my entire childhood to get her to stop. It wasn't until I was about 20 that I actually got her to see the damage she had caused me and it took a whole lot of tears.

What I would recommend you to do is to seek help with a psychologist. I'm not sure how it goes in other countries, but the way I did that was to get in touch with my doctor and tell him what my issue was and from there on he'll decide what is best to do. Like you said, an outside force is probably what is needed. There is only so much crying and begging you can do, and even then it may not do much as it is an addiction. She needs to be willing to stop for herself to stop, though, and if she gets professional help with it there will be someone who tells her that. I wish you the best.
>>
>>18083420
It isn't just the alcohol but her upbringing that has affected her, her parents were like this as well and it reflects on her pretty much.

I'm not sure if I can get one here that easily, I need a britfag who knows about this stuff to help me to help her.
>>
>>18083429
I'm aware that upbringing can be the cause of such things, and alcoholism can be one of the things that passes down through the family.

That seems fair, I hope someone with more experience in your country can assist you. It's tough though, since it's their life and it feels like you want to just find a solution and make it better but if they're not willing it's a shitshow and I feel sorry for you.

I'm looking to get a tattoo similar in design to this one on my upper arm, albeit without the star. How long do you estimate it would take a tattoo artist to do this?

You need to research studios in your area and then drop them an email with that picture and ask for a rough idea of how much it will cost, if they are offering a flat price or a breakdown of rates per hour, per half and full day etc if not.

Don't shop for tattoos based on price alone. Find the best artist for the style you want to get done you can realistically afford. You are basically commissioning art and while the tattoo needs to be done well, your perception of the skill and professionalism of the individual who tattoos you will massively influence how happy you are with the outcome. You do not want shitty tattoos because someone was $20 cheaper or because you didn't like the fact that one guy was like "oh we charge by the half day rather than tattoo, idk half a day? Maybe a little longer? and another was like "$120 per half day, but call it $80 for the tat dude even if it takes longer" then he throws it on you in 20 minutes.

Tattoos are degenerate, don't get one.

>>18083366
You speak the truth, and I'm taking all the points you mentioned into consideration. As this would be my first and likely only tattoo, I just wanted to get as much information as possible before sending out queries.

When it happened in consistent pace, time to stop and figure out what's wrong within ourselves. Perhaps it's just a matter of perspective, or maybe just a typical case of you reap what you sow, either way it's a good time to stop and reflect.

>Haven't heard from her still, but not sweating it as it's still early in the day.

I want to be angry at my female friends for not even believing that I liked this girl that much. But I know it's my fault for kind of blowing everyone off in the middle of January. What do I do from here on out?

>>18083234
So you're saying she's "shit testing" me? That doesn't sound like something you do to someone you care about. And she was apologizing a lot when we fought about this earlier in the week and saying how she wouldn't have said yes to him if she knew how I felt. That is what caused us to fight as I told her she was wrong in that or really selfish and blind to all the things we'd done together and talked about for the future.
