First gf of two years left me a couple weeks ago. I'm still a virgin because it was long distance (transatlantic, she was working towards moving back to the USA). I haven't fully recovered emotionally but at this point I just want to have sex and check the box.

I'm 22, I make $90,000/yr in the software industry and am in my final semester of undergrad (applied math). I don't have a Facebook and I dislike parties. My interests don't align with normies (I dont watch television, don't care for sports, don't play vidya). I have an aversion to putting pictures of me on the internet but I have been considering using Tinder. Consider myself relatively attractive, 6'1" and in good shape. What's my best bet for picking up a girl for casual sex and friendship? Is Tinder a bad idea?

Tinder is not a bad idea. Make sure your picture and writeup are good.

And first of all, stop using the word "normies". It gives the impression that you think you're some kind of special snowflake who's somehow superior to everyone else. Don't ever step foot on /r9k/ again.

You would think so, right? But how do I make it happen / where do I meet women? I'm not really socially outgoing so actually meeting them (and then breaking the ice) is the biggest issue as far as I can tell.

Advice on what women are looking for on Tinder? And yeah I don't browse /r9k/, just a convenient descriptive term.

Everything I respect in a man, I am not. This really disturbs me, pretty much daily. I work with a bunch of guys that have their shit figured out, comfortable with themselves, and I respect them a lot. But all it does is remind me that I'm not like that.

I have a very traditional idea of a man worthy of respect. Assertive, strong, big, determined. But I'm a weak lanky tall dude who can't pull himself together enough to achieve his goals. These guys all like me and hang out with me, I think they see potential in me but I'm so unsure of myself. I'm just not really sure how to process these feelings and focus them into making change in my life so I can become more aligned with my own values.

Stop comparing yourself to other people. It's the number one reason people are miserable. Compare yourself to you. Then step by step become a better you by compeating against yourself. There will always be someone out there that is smarter than you, better than you, healthier, better looking and so on. It's just how it is, I accepted that fact and am now the person I have always wanted to be.

Hey /adv/. Been having issues with anxiety and depression for a while. Starting to have suicidal thoughts. The weird thing is that some music I love like Trance and Metal make me feel like I should end it, which is weird especially since Trance is uplifting. I'm still not over a girl from over a year ago. I should be happy aside from that, my career is going good, good relationship with family, getting in good physical shape. But I'm generally miserable or depressed. I can't get over her.

Please help.

It's good that you are opening up and talking about your issues. It's okay to have depression and bad thoughts, just don't act on them.
You have a job and are trying to improve you self. Those are good steps.
>>
>>18663487
If you have a good relationship with your family, why would you want to inflict emotional distress and trauma on them?
Transcend your past and destroy the pedestals you place this girl on. You'll save yourself the pain of even more emotional sabotage if you just look to the future and set goals- maybe set personal targets for your career path, or physical milestones. Cultivate personal growth and more importantly recognise this change. Witnessing yourself evolve physically and emotionally will no doubt help towards your anxiety and depression. Maybe also dabble in other activities such as reading- my wellbeing has increased tremendously from reading, especially philosophy.

Hey /adv/ I'm stressing out
I think my gf might've just been taken advantage of by one of her friends.
Here's the story:
>She's 16
>He's 19
>He starts talking to her again after a long hiatus
>He's telling her to break up with her because he's had a bad experience with long distance.
>We were both happy
>we both play it off as dumb shit
>Another time he tries to kiss her but she turns him away
Now she was 100% there when she denied him access this bit matters.
>Yesterday she tells me they kissed while she was high
>He wasn't
>Confront him about this shit
>He tries to lie about it.
>Then he plays it off as "Women love men in uniform"
Doesn't it make any sense that he let her get high alone with him so she would be vulnerable. She doesn't want to leave her boyfriend so he takes advantage of her while her mind is foggy as shit. She's a lightweight and this was her second time smoking that shit. Asked stoner friends about how fucked her state of mind might have been and they all said regular use might let you get used to the effects. Am i worrying too much? Does my theory make any sense? does it hold any weight? Sorry for the long post, im just really stressed.

As a guy in the military, I'll tell you how you can really fuck him. Figure out what unit he belongs to, give them a call, explain to them what's going on. I wouldn't want a shitbag in my branch scumming around with underaged girls, and I guarantee his leadership don't either.

What is the difference between making a girl orgasm and making a girl cum? I heard it in a conversation and I thought it's the same thing, because you know, when guys have an orgasm they cum, it's the exact same thing

You can have an orgasm without cum, but not cum without an orgasm.

>>18663476
that's not true. it's possible (also for guys) to cum without having an orgasm.


anyways, i guess they were talking about a girl having an orgasm or squirting.

I'm about to start Organic Chemistry for the first time this semester and wanted to know if any of you had any advice on studying it before I start.
If any of you can recommend books or websites that would also help.

PhD in chemistry here.

What is your text book currently?
I had Organic Chemistry by Carey, 6th edition

Read the book and I mean read it before assignments or tests come. Don't speed read or whatever the faggot kids are doing these days, really read it aloud if you can, really understand the words and figures. Read it before lecture, stay ahead if you can, if not read it as soon as you are done with class. Do not fall behind. I liked Carey's book because it had questions scattered throughout that reflected the material just read and was easy to read in general. Of all my books that's one of the few I kept from undergrad and I still thumb through it from time to time.

Go to office hours. My professor had group office hours with like at least ten students present asking questions or going over problems. Even if you don't have questions, go and participate and take it in and keep getting refreshed.

Do not use a laptop or type the lecture notes. Write that shit down with your hand on paper. You can transcribe it later electronically. Your brain does a much better job retaining information like this.

Lastly, make a separate notebook from lecture. This notebook allows you to catalog chronologically from lecture reaction mechanisms in a neat form.

Don't use flashcards or memorize. They shit is so gay and completely ineffective. Really understand the trends as to why one leaving group is better than another or why one charged state is more stable than another.

As for online resources try these

http://www.organic-chemistry.org

And for general simplification of scientific concepts:

I love the shit out of that website and actually used it to write a lot of my initial introduction paragraphs of my dissertation.

Hey OP here,

The text book I'm using is Organic Chemistry by Carey 10th edition.

Would you recommend using another addition.

Thanks for the advice.

Wrote this on /b/ but it got buried so i'll try here. I had a weird experience and I want to know what it means.
>There's this girl I know that I fuck that has a trap best friend.
>Had a sex dream last night
>Walked into a room and the trap was there naked, I let it blow me
>When I woke up I finished fapping to the dream imagining I came on his face.
So am I bi or gay or something now? Never liked men and have no interest in getting fucked or fucking them. But for whatever reason that trap really turns me the fuck on. Is this a normal for people or what? The fact that I don't feel that way about other traps makes me feel this is a weird selective fetish but idk.

>>18663467
In our dreams, any part of our memories and experiences can show up. Additionally, dreams often forgo normal logic. It's only natural, then, that sometimes we'll dream about scenarios that involve aspects of real life but still are illogical / very different from what would reasonably happen.
Also imo it makes no sense to worry about whether you're gay or not before you are in love with a member of the same sex.
However, the following
>>When I woke up I finished fapping to the dream imagining I came on his face.
>But for whatever reason that trap really turns me the fuck on
sounds alot like you have a crush on or at least want to fuck him/her/whatever. Make of that what you will
>>
>>18663467
I think you're at least bi. There's nothing wrong with being bi.

You have three options
1) Get a free ride either because of previous academic achievement of because you are a minority
2) Kill yourself and pray that in your next life you are born rich and/or a minority
3) Suck it up and get loans but go to the cheapest university you can find (public obviously) and then through merit try to reach the stars.

be a mechanical engineer or electrical engineer

I cant just abandon them. But I cant deal with this anymore. All they do is drag me down. Its not their fault the doctors lied to them and they are stuck this way. But im tired of giving all of my money and damaging my future just to keep them going.

If i go live with other relatives i have to drop out because i will be too far away from school.

What do?

Drug addiction is a disease. You're not just living with a person, you're living with addiction manifest. Their mind isn't rational or empathetic. Helping an addict is a full-time job by itself, especially if you're trying to get them clean.

If you're in school, there's not much chance of intervening in your parent's life. That kind of effort isn't feasible when dealing with school as well.

It sounds like you're already giving up all of your money, you should look for a shitty apartment and get some roommates so you can stay in school. It won't be easy, and it won't be fun. But it's the only way to get out.

I mean... there's really no comfort to be given me, right? I've been trying REALLY hard to downplay it, to pep talk myself, but goddamn do I feel inferior. There's just no other way to put it - I AM inferior. This isn't like in the movies where the protagonist ends up making her jealous or have her regret it all. This was just pure /r9k/ material, you can't make this shit up.

Seriously, can this even be put into perspective for me? Where the fuck is the bright side in all of this? How am I not the biggest loser?

For you, there is no bright side right now. Not every moment of your life can be happy and joyous, and the bad times test our resolve.

You've fallen off your horse and then got kicked while you're down. It happens.

>goddamn do I feel inferior.
>I AM inferior
>protagonist

You're not the protagonist. You're a man who has been hurt by someone they loved. That doesn't mean you're inferior, it means your life has taken a different turn than his. You played the game and you lost. The only solution is to keep moving forward.

Men who have lost everything are closer to the most terrible and painful aspects of themselves, and therefore more capable of wielding them in the best of ways. You have everything in the world to gain.

You will have a normal penis within a year if you practice consistently
