Hi /adv/. What general wisdom can you offer from your life experiences?
Taking care of vitamin D levels.

All of you autistic social outcasts. Learn to body language / smile / holding eye contact. These are the things normal people can do instinctively.
You need to learn it extra but it is at least learnable.
Your life will be much easier if you listen to this advice.
Accepting negative emotions and even seeing them in a positive light, as something that can help you grow and become stronger, makes life easier and more peaceful.
I got married to the first woman I fucked and now I feel an intense regret.
I got married one and a half years ago to an Asian girl I met at college. It was awesome at first but lately I feel trapped and constrained.
My career is skyrocketing and soon enough I'll be in the top 10% of earners before I'm 30. I started weightlifting and now have a rockin bod. My wife works as a retail assistant and watches a lot of TV.
I think I'd have never managed to be so successful without her emotional support but at the same time I resent her being so unsuccessful. I have to share my money with her and her parents are always badgering us about children before we're financially secured.
what do I do? sexually and morally I want to be free but emotionally I think she's the only human who's ever understood me
so what you're saying is you have it all but are still not happy? coz thats what it sounds like
It's ultimately your choice. But imagine yourself if, tomorrow, you could never talk to her or see her again. If you feel absolutely nothing then you might as be honest and divorce her while she's still relatively young. But if you have a single fucking moment of hesitation or sadness at that idea, then stop jumping to extremes and talk to your wife.
Because ultimately fucking lots of girls is physically amazing and great for your confidence, but it does absolutely nothing for your emotional fulfilment. And I'm guessing as someone who married young you need a lot of that.
First thing's first, you have an ego problem. My advice would be to find some perspective and some humility. Try your hand at some competitive activity that is completely new to you and fail miserably.
Second, stand up to her parents. If they're first or second generation immigrants they probably have a Confucian perspective when it comes to family relationships, in that they probably think filial responsibility flows up instead of down like in western culture. You need to show them that you hold the power here. They don't get to force you to have kids, they don't get to force you to do anything.
Third, stay with your wife. Maybe use some of that money to travel together and do activities away from the TV. If she has hobbies, encourage them. If she doesn't, try new things and help her find some. She doesn't need to be some sort of superwoman; that's your massively over-inflated ego talking. But encouraging her to take part in some personal development will help you both.
Has anyone ever succeeded? How do you go about it?
My girlfriend and I broke up recently because we were both stressed out and arguing. After a lot of pleading and saying sorry I agreed to just be her friend. She says she's not ready to meet me yet and right now I can't do anything to change her mind.
I genuinely love her and I'd do pretty much anything to get her back. So what should I do? Should I avoid her for a few weeks before re-initiating contact or should I try to maintain it casually? Should I avoid any mention of our past?
I've done it a handful of times. Usually we meet up a few times and have a nice talk every time and kind of remember that we liked each other in the first place. Then somehow one of us ends up at the other person's place for a 'platonic' visit and it just turns into sex. Then it's FWB with your ex for a while and then feelings come back.
Works almost every time for me.
>>18643597
But how do I initiate those meetups? I asked her today if we could meet (we broke up yesterday) and she just said 'someday, not now.'
Should I do no contact for a while and then message her about coffee or what?
>>18643610
>yesterday
Turn away, no contact. Two months.
Hey /adv/, last friday I got my first tattoo, and the next day it started kinda scabbing. Now I read online that scabbing is normal as long as they arn't too big, now I'm no scab or tattoo expert so can any tell me if I need to be worried or if its fine. Pic related ofcourse.
>>18643590
Wtf is that supposed to be?

Good idea or bad idea?
For a bit of background info, she worked in Australia where prostitution is legal, regulated and mandatory sexual health checks are required for sex workers.
She wasn't trafficked, had no pimp, didn't work in a brothel. She was an independent prostitute.
I was a regular of hers for 2010 and 2011, and saw her sporadically over the past two years. I always wanted to date her, but not until she quits the industry.
Now she has quit and I have my chance.
Is this a bad idea? What are the pros and cons?
Why not. You know each other well enough, and if you think you can work out in a relationship, go for it. But before you get ahead of yourself, shouldn't you see how she feels? By all means ask her out on a date.
>>18643430
If she's clean it might be a fun relationship.
Never expect it to last, get the hell away as soon as you start having any kind of doubts.
>>18643441
I did ask her once if she would consider going out with me and she said yes, but that was when I was a regular client and maybe she just said it to keep me as a client. I do think she likes me though, so I will ask her on a date and find out.
>>18643448
She's cleaner than a lot of the non prostitute girls I've been with.
I really like him, I do. I was just used to liking him more than he liked me until he started saying I love you, I want to be together forever, I want to make you happy, I'll never leave you and it makes me uncomfortable because I've never had a bf before, never been close to anyone before and I can't reciprocate.
He's cried because of me TWICE. I'm just so used to the idea that guys don't have feelings and they want sex.
Wat do?
Leave him, he deserves someone better.
youll end up riding different cocks all the time because ALL men have feelings, the longer you are togather with them the more obvious its gona be
he might be projecting and want to be loved very much because something went wrong with his upbringing, you can just tell him you really like him but youd like him more if he acted more manly
>>18643333
I really like him. What are you talking about?
I've known this girl for years, we're both eachothers closest friends.
We text basically every day and constantly hang out, I know everything about her and she knows everything about me.
The problem is I have fallen DEEPLY in love with her, I can't stop thinking about her, this is love that I've never felt before in my life.
I don't want to think this way, I value our friendship alot and she values it just as much, we've been there for eachother through everything and helped each other through some really tough times. I can't just break off this friendship, but I can't handle this feeling either. It's killing me.
We've kissed once before in the past, And she told me after that she made a mistake and wants to stay friends, the whole "I value our friendship too much to ruin it with a relationship that will probably end anyway" excuse.
She's clearly aware of how I feel but she pretends not to notice and clearly doesn't feel the same way.
What do I do, I'm dying on the inside
I can't even think about other girls, I've turned girls down just because my mind is so stuck on her that I can't even see myself being with someone else.
If she was an ex or a crush I could no contact and get over her. But I can't get over someone I talk to every day and see a few times a week.
>>18643281
Tell her how you feel.
Does she have a bf or something?
>>18643412
No, and she hasn't been in a relationship for nearly 2 years now. She only had 1 relationship and it was extremely abusive, it was around the time we became really close friends that she cut it off.
I feel like she already knows how I feel, telling her wouls be redundant and it'll only make things awkward.
Hey /adv/
This thread is for giving Tinder advice and ask questions.
I have been with 66 women from Tinder, and only 5 times i havent had sex within 2 dates. At this time i nearly perfected my approach so ask me anything.
Post profile tips, pic tips, date tips, openings etc.
How about giving us your general run down of what you do, if you perfected your approach.
>>18643236
Can we see your pictures?
No use asking for advice if we can't get the matches in the first place.
>>18643240
Well every date is different, but still most women fall into a separate category where you can easily read them. Some are shy, some are outgoing, some are insecure and so forth... You have to play into their personality. Insecure girls need you to act caring and strong for them, where older women often need you to impress them with being knowledgeable or have money.
My bio is just a long funny text and i only have 2 pictures. As i match a lot of women i almost always just text them ''baby'' or some short thing. A lot of the matches are looking like shit, but i feel like most of the ones i meet up with are good looking as actually pretty normal.
Ask something more specific as your question would take 15 pages to answer.
>>18643247
First picture is me holding a gun pointing at the camera with 5 friends standing around me. We are all really nice dressed with me in the center. Second picture is of me and some other friends at a festival, again with me in the center like i am the group leader in both.
My best female friend rate me a 7-8/10, and i believe her to be honest as she always tell me everything straight.
Due to my wife passing away about 14 months ago, I am now a single father.
Is it too soon to start dating again?
And is it wrong or selfish of me to try and find a "replacement" mother for the child? Sorry if that was the wrong word to use, my English isn't great.
I want to find a woman that I love and loves me, but it's also important to me to find a woman that will want to raise my child with me and love him as her own.
If you want the companionship and feel you are ready go for it. Your kids are too young to be upset and having a mother figure around will be great.
When you are dating just avoid comparing the woman or making your deceased a central part of your identity imo. Gotta be about the future.
>t.someone who had a gf die from a drunk driver hitting her.
the amount of time you take before moving on is a completely personal one, and if you earnestly feel like you need that support then there should be nothing to stop you from looking for it.

>When you are dating just avoid comparing the woman or making your deceased a central part of your identity imo. Gotta be about the future.
This. No one can compete with a dead woman. If you feel you are ready to move on, go for it, but remember that moving on means letting go as well.
I'm not interested in gaming or television anymore. I want hobbies that feel even a little productive or social - I've started reading, lifting and nature conservation work. I'm even contemplating doing D&D and martial arts just to meet new people. Anything you do/recommend?
>>18642699
Pick a board on 4chan and start reading lol.
I'm into /k/. I own tons of guns and find time whenever I can.
I was getting into investing/finance and that always gives you something to talk about when you meet someone new.
Dude......guitar......
Guitar, look up the songs "undergroove" and "Dynamic Day" by MattRach and tell me that doesn't look fun as fuck.

>>18642569
Taking with you as many as you can.
Can I die with you?
>be me 18

>mom tells me this time I have to start going out and communicating with people
>I'm scared that by the time I graduate I'll be a friendless loser

>>18642569

My girlfriend said she would love me forever. She said she would never leave me. She said we're forever. She said she will never love anyone like me. She said she will never leave me. She said I would always have her. She said we would be forever. She said she needs me. She said she can't live without me. She said I'm her life. She said she can't live without me
SO HOW THE FUCK HAS SHE NOW LEFT ME. WHY DO PEOPLE DO THIS. I WANT TO FUCKING KILL MYSELF.
All of our memories are now wasted. All of our hopes or it seems MY fucking hopes only, are fucking destroyed. I fucking love her. She fucking claimed to love me. Why the FUCK has she done this to us. WHY THE FUCK. She sat there and said "it's going to be hard to leave you" and "I'm sad too" WHAT THE FUCK
Are you fucking kidding me? I don't know what the fuck to say. Fuck everything. FUCK EVERYTHING.
So what did you do? You said all this she shot. She this, she that. She probably left you because you dont think your actions have consequences, or you never did anything to deserve her and she wised up.
>>18642394
People say things like that all the time y'know. Move on buddy. She's a cunt
>>18642394
She said a sweet nothing to you.
I can say one right now.

Just move on.
I'm only 4'11 and strangers think I'm 12. I need advice on looking my actual age, 19.
People say that men don't care about height like women do but that's not completely true. Am I destined to only attract men with pedophilic leanings? Guys my age don't even bother with me because they probably think I'm too young, or maybe I'm just ugly.
try to be a bit tomboyish/wear a leather jacket or something. Tiny chicks in leather jackets and jeans are hot.
Heels? Lol where you been
>>18642379
have you considered seducing rich old pedophiles
I'm a pedophile... no joke... i'm the pedophile you'd least expect to be one, i'm literally a teenage girl and i've groped a 3 year old boy once and it felt so good and... amazing... help me /adv/, pic unrelated
>>18642024
Can you help me understand why it felt good for you? A three year old doesn't even have developed genitals, the penis isn't even the size of half your pinky finger.
>>18642024
Look OP if this is real seriously look into help or see if it passes your call but the second I'll say you're an asshole.
You could seriously hurt someone for life if you do start doing shit to young boys I have experience from it when I was 11 this girl who was 18 took me and raped me I can tell you about all the harm it's done to me
