Dated a chick for 2 years, she lied about a buncha shit and fucked some other dude 2 weeks into a "break". Obviously things fell apart and were no longer together, I told her not to contact me again, she's genuinely a huge source of negativity in my life and I should be glad to be rid of her but I constantly feel this sort of anxiety, a desire to look on her social media, etc. etc.
I dont understand why I feel like that, what's going on?
>>18669898
You spent 2 years of your life with this person. She became apart of your routine. It takes time.
>>18669904
So is it just the change? Is it some sort of separation anxiety?
>>18669945
Yes, that's what it is.
Hey guys, I woke up last night with a pain in my eye like something was in it. I got up and it hurt like fire for like 20 minutes while I flushed it out with water and tried to get out whatever it was. It doesn't hurt anymore but now my vision in that eye is really blurry. wtf, has this happened to anyone else?
I thought it would go away after a few hours but It's been all day and that eye is still blurry. I read online that it could clear up in 24/72 horus, so I'm waiting before I go to the doctor because it's expensive.
In the meantime, has anyone had any actual, personal, real experience with something like that? How long did it take to clear up? Was it a scratched cornea? Any tips or tricks?
Ophtho here
Corneal abrasions/ulcers hurt like shit
Thing is the eye is hard to see without them fancy microscopes and a fluorescent dye
Either way corneal abrasions heal better if your eye is patched, but that's hard to advise without seeing you
Is going to the ER out of the equation? If so, buy some over the counter artificial tears and apply 4-5x times a day to see if you have some confort
This is judging by what you are telling me, again we are heavily depedent on seeing the cause
Any other symptons? Does light bother you? Any sharp pain? Secretions?
>>18669950
It doesn't hurt at all since I flushed my eye out last night, but it's just blurry. Like, everything is normal. It looks and feels normal except everything in that one eye is blurry, and the strain is causing headaches when I try to read or focus on a lot of stuff, but just sitting staring blankly, it doesn't hurt. Just blurry.
It hurt like fire last night though. I don't know what got in it, but I had to wash it out for like 20 minutes.
>>18669964
Probably something got inside and left an abrasion
If your vision doesn't get worse I'd say you can wait a couple of days...if not do consult someone mate...I've thrown eyes to the trash bin because people decided to "wait and see if it got better"
I'm finished money has ruined my family theres no love anymore, can people still join commune's or like a kibbutz
That is a beautiful picture. Best of luck to you.
>>18669877
Yes, search "communes in [your country]". Best of luck!
>>18669877
>kibbutz
Yes.
I don't care about being confident, I just need to get to the point where if I'm walking alone in public, I don't suddenly get anxious and start walking manually. How do I stop being inside my own head, basically?
>>18669872
I had this same issue OP. Always in my head, awkward as fuck, socially inept and so fourth.
For me I went to the doctor, explained all this, got referred to an adult autism institute, got diagnosed, went to counseling for a few years, started working out, became more social, and now I am employed and have a good relationship with a girlfriend.
There is hope, but you have to really work at it.
why did the girl look at you?
The fuck do you mean "manually"?
How do I learn/remember the fucktons of information in fourteen days? My subject is math analysis, and I have got, like, ten Word pages of symbols without any text, like zero. I had two months but been procrastinating hard, now I gotta catch everything up.
One more. (1/?)
B U M P
Get off 4chan and start studying
So recently I started textin with pic related. Is this a trap?
no, looks more like a teenage girl.
>>18669846
It's fucking hard to tell these days because some women just have strong jaw lines but other wise look feminine. Many of these traps start cocktails of hormones so early like puberty it's almost impossible to really know until you see their dick. Just make a joke about Kaitlyn Jenner and see how she reacts.
Is second hand vape and or second hand marijuana smoke dangerous? I have some friends who vape and smoke marijuana constantly and I went over to their house the other day for about an hour and a half. I noticed this morning I've been coughing every 5 minutes, I'm not sure if it's allergies or from the second hand vape. I run 5 miles a day and workout constantly, I've also never smoked anything so maybe I'm just being paranoid about it.
No, you stupid bitch. Stop being paranoid. Also other people can tell that you're uncomfortable about it so either get over it or stop hanging out with those friends indoors.
>>18669859
do you vape?
>>18669842
It's not dangerous. I guess it can displease your lungs and organism in general temporarily tho
This is a long one folks. Brace for wall of text, not quite sure how to format this. Alright, I'll give some basic information. I'm 19, I have this pal who's 17, we'll call him Jeff. I introduced him and some of my irl pals to this discord group (mainly teenage girls). After about 3 months of Jeff sexting with this 26 year old girl, who we'll call Sam, Sam decides she wants to come over to visit. Sam's froma different country, she has to fly over.
So me and my pals agree to go camping with Sam, and Jeff. A one night thing. Sam came over on a Thursday afternoon, and spent the afternoon and night with Jeff at his house. The next day, we all go camping. Jeff and Sam are 5 and a half hours late.
They finally get there, we stet up camp and start drinking. A few hours in, I realise my other two friends have left. I want my boy to do well, so I leave Sam and Jeff alone and go talk to my pals in the woods for 10 minutes. Mid conversation with my other pals, Sam finds us. Not a good sign right? So we go back to the camp.
We continued drinking for another hour, and then we decide to have a little talk with our boy Jeff, while Sam's off peeing in the woods. We tell him to say how he feels, and make his move and that we'll leave him for a while to do it.
Sam gets back, me and my other pals leave Sam and Jeff alone again. Sam asks "Anon can I come with, I don't care if you're talking about guy stuff I'll just listen." I tell her it's private. We're in the woods no less than 15 minutes and Sam and Jeff come looking for us. We all head back to camp as a group. We continue drinking into the night.
At about 1am, Sam and one of my other friends walk off into the woods to have a talk. I get a message 5 minutes later from Sam telling me to go find them.
I find my other pal and Sam in the woods, my other pal leaves. Sam sits me down on a tree stump and says in short "Anon I don't like Jeff at all, he's too young and too inexperienced. But I do want you." -Continued

>But I do want you
Do it.
>>18669803
Wow that's shitty of you if you went for it
you thought with your little head mate, whats done is done
So I've been out of school for a while now and have decided to get back into it. The problem is that I have no idea where to start-- I was in school back in 2013 but my parents never supported me so I got no money from FAFSA, and as a result, got stuck with a $25,000-ish bill.
I was wondering if it would be possible for me to start college fresh again with a new major and at a different school, but I'm not sure if schools would be okay with this. I can't get transcripts and I already tried applying in the past (as a transfer student with community college credits, but they still wanted my old university transcripts), so I'm hoping I don't get stiffed again.
Maybe this is more of me venting. Who knows. Any input would be great. I need to work something out.
Last bump before I give up hope on this thread.
Why in the world would you be going back for more debt? If you want to do it for completion's sake then go to a community college and finish an associate's there. It sounds like you don't even know what you're going to major in which is a huge red flag already.
I know some schools offer a "clean slate" program where you basically do start all over again. The only schools I've seen do it though are community colleges, but you should(?) be able to do that.
I'm not sure if you can attend a large school again though and have them completely ignore your old grades.
Also make sure you know for sure what you're going to major in and don't drop. Look into the pell grant if you're broke enough for it and it is still around. I'm wanting to go back myself and that was the only way I could attend in the early 2010's.
What makes me, me? Ive never gad a clear sense of self. So how should a person define themsleves?
>>18669719
The self can essentially be divided into two parts; the interior and the exterior. Your exterior self is how society and your friends/family see you. That's usually easy to figure out based on your job, economic status, personality with others etc.
Your interior self, on the other hand, is more complex and meta. It is your thoughts, memories, and desires, and the way you perceive them as well as the way you perceive the world around you. Your worldview, aspirations, personality, interests, etc are who you are to yourself; the interior self.
If that's not enough, I really recommend some Alan Watts lectures on the Self on yt.
If you're looking for a way to figure yourself out, nothing better than going out into the real world and just seeing what you like and what makes you tick :)
>>18669738
Thanks. I think there is a disconnect between what do and how it effects my self-perception. It seems like I do the opposite of what I think I would do in. Most situations
>>18669761
Yea I see what you mean. Just try to do the right thing I guess :)
My boyfriend cheated on me.
The first time i suspected it he talked me out of it.
I felt horrible because he made me believe that I was just being a jealous idiot. Truns out I was right.
One of the reasons he never told me was
>i got myself stuck in a relationship just to stay polite and nice as to not hurt you further
He always saw it as an open relationship. I asked him several times if its serious and that I didnt want any open relationship or polygamy shit. He told me not to worry.
That he loves me.
And here I am now. Completly hurt. Feeling like shit.
Feeling like I will never love again.
Any way i can get over this?
Always, always, always trust your instincts.
I have had to learn and re-learn this lesson the hard way a couple times.
>>18669665
>He always saw it as an open relationship.
he was up front about the nature of the relationship, he didn't cheat. No one is forcing you to be involved, walk away if the terms of the deal aren't satisfactory.
No, a girl took your boyfriend right in front of you and you did absolutely nothing. We call that ''cuck'' in the male world.
I'm conflicted, /adv/. How should I feel about a friend that is, for lack of a better word, abusing the welfare system? He's able bodied, very capable, but just chooses to focus on his "music", and acts like it's so cool that he can get hundreds of dollars in free food and medical care without having to work, and spending all of his cash on dates and cigarettes, while I'm over here feeling like a cuck for having a full time job. At the same time, I even feel bad about taking bereavement leave (basically a week off, paid, because someone in my immediate family passed). How do I deal with these feelings of both envy and pride?
>>18669532
>How do I deal with these feelings of both envy and pride?
You decide whether they're worth your friendship and go from there.
>>18669532
It's worth noting my mother does the same but honestly, if it allows her to live mostly stress free and comfortably enough I could give a shit less. There's enough people abusing the system at this point to where it literally doesn't matter.
They're still making less than they would at minimum anyway.
>>18669532
>I even feel bad about taking bereavement leave
stop being a cuck who prioritizes his company's well-being over himself
>Be me
>Music Major
>Full Tuition scholarship
>Realize that majoring in music won't get you a job
>Thinking about getting a minor in finance. >Maybe even a double major
So, /adv/, what do you think? Will a minor in finance get me a good job in the field? Or should I just double major.
Pic unrelated
Professional musician speaking: if you are musically talented enough to get a full scholarship, you should make it your career or you'll regret it. No, music won't "get you a job" because music is already the job. You can do something that 9/10 people don't understand, put your skills to use.
>>18669503
Thanks for the comforting words, anon. You right, music has always been my passion and it still is (piano performance major specifically). I just worry about what's ahead, you know? I feel like I need a backup job
>>18669498
Are you asking if a minor in finance will get you a good job in the finance field or in music or in general?
I'm an accounting/finance major for reference - and at least where I'm at - accounting/finance internships and entry level positions are very competitive because people in these fields need the professional experience to obtain certifications. Additionally, you will want to put forward the effort to network/join business clubs to get an edge on available positions.
If you want to work a general office/administrative job, it doesn't seem to be as competitive and can serve as a foot in the door, however.

tips for lasting more, control nervousness and satisfying my girl?
only about 25% of women can come from ponos-in-vagoo alone. use your hands and mouth as well
and communicate! you wont magically know how to do everything right or how she likes it. simple questions like "does that feel good?" "do you like it like this?" will improve shit a lot
>>18669489
Please for the love of god talk to her about this beforehand, because having someone ask you how to fuck you while fucking you is the biggest turnoff ever.
If you can't talk to them about sex before you have sex, then you aren't ready to have sex.
(assuming you're a guy since the OP picture is of a guy)
>>18669496
>and satisfying my girl?
hes a guy yes
I'm a college freshman, majoring in engineering, and I absolutely hate it. The one thing I'm very passionate about is baking, and culinary science in general, but I didn't go to culinary school because my family hyped me up to be some sort of tech genius and I was worried a job as a baker would be unrealistic.
Now that I'm in a STEM major, I feel miserable and even a having a good group of friends isn't helping. This just isn't for me. My parents have already spent so much money sending me to uni I feel like shit for wanting to switch, costing even more money. I'm just afraid going into culinary isn't a good career goal and I'm also afraid I wont be able to study abroad Junior year like I have planed. Do culinary schools even have abroad programs? I'm just anxious and don't want to tell my friends about this until I get what I want to do figured out.
>tldr: I'm dumb, wat do
>>18669458
Follow YOUR passion. Enjoying what you do makes life more enjoyable.
>>18669458
Why havent you asked about what to do before you started?
Btw my mum was teacher. And she hated children (me sort of included). Do you know why? Because her parents made her to do it. Her whole life is kinda mess, part of it because she did something she hates every fucking day. Dont end up like that.
On the other hand, you can do cooking without almost any formal education, all you need is to get some appretinship.
Talk to your study department. You can finish this semester, then stop the course for how long you want (and still have ability to finish it like 2 years later when you find out cooking is shit too).
Good luck?
>>18669465
Thanks, and that's true. I should be doing what makes life enjoyable to me.
>>18669472
I've talked to my parents, but they told me to wait a few more weeks then they'll see what they can do.
Ah, sorry that happened to you. I'll make sure I don't end up like that. I don't think I could handle 3 more years of this anyways.
While that's true, I'm aiming for culinary school because I want to get out of this small city and bake somewhere like New York. Also, if that doesn't work, my friends want to open a cafe after uni and I could help them.
Thanks, I'll talk to my department at the end of the week. Eh, I know for a lot of people the cooking industry is shitty, but I don't plan on being a line chef or anything. Baking and cake decorating are more my speed (yes, it's gay, but it's fun) so it won't be as bad, not including the weird hours and such.
