Hello everyone.

My name is Anderson. I am a brazillian STEM student, 19 years old. Kissless virgin and all that.

I live with my parents, don't have a driver's license and don't have a lot of life aside from university and working sometimes. I had a little bit of money left from my last job (unemployed as of now) but my father basically seized it when we went through a bad economic moment.

I have lately decided to be less introverted, since it's been taking a toll on my emotions and life. I am shy, but I don't have any difficulties talking to people after going through the approach part. I do however take people's opinions very seriously (which has caused me problems in the past).

So, these are the steps I have already taken towards being more fulfilled:
>deleted all my games
>have been taking care of myself appearance-wise - have shitty acne on my beard line though (probably hair-pore inflamation, my beard doesn't get thick for some reason. I have an uniform and lenghty beard, but it is as thick as those colorless and thin hairs we have before the beard actually grows)
>have been trying to be more social. Talked to a lot of people in the past few months, more than I have my whole life probably
>have been focusing on my studies and taking them more seriously. Actually having an easier time grasping the topics of classes
>looking actively for a job again since I have more experience now
>still planning on doing more things to enjoy life more - ex.: spend less time in front of a screen, listen to more music, exercise, go outside(even if for a walk)

Any advice for me to be a healthy and successful person?
Now, I know Brazil has a shit reputation - it even has a shit reputation here - but it's actually a lot like your average american city in most places. Any advice regarding interesting places to visit in my age? (club, specific institutions/locations)?

Bumping for interest. I'm brazilian too, gf broke up with me and I'm trying to get more active in general, both to clear my mind and being a better person overall.

Better yourself throughoutly, and all will fall in place.

My usual advice (self pasta):
>Become fit- Go to /fit/
>Read the sticky.
>Follow it.
>If you have a hard start, first for a while do this:
>Eat less kcal than you spend.
>Use the app Noom to track calories.
>Caynax & Sworkit apps for free training programs.

>Learn to deal with your feelings.
>Read "How to manage depression with CBT for dummies".
>Use the apps CBT Diary, CBTi Coach and Life Strategy to track your feelings, dreams and fears.

>Organize your life.
>Track your tasks with the apps Taskhammer, Life Strategy, Raise the Bar & My Class Schedule.
>Clean your fucking room. (Cf.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQ1uDrdUuds & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBR5v89L6gk).

>Learn to meditate or pray.
>"The Courage to be", "Way of the peaceful warrior", "The concept of anxiety" "The power of now" & "The Way of a Pilgrim" are great places to start.
>Jung's "Red book" to a degree as well.

>Become more social.
>Read "No more Mr. Nice Guy", "how to win friends and influence people", "The 48 laws of power", "How to make anyone fall in love with you" and "The way of the superior man".
>Learn what they offer (write it down on cards) and practice it.
>Join a club/ Hobby group.
>Do social work.
>Go out.

>Sleep more, and more regularly
>Wear fitting clothes.
>Have good hygiene.

>Practice, practice, practice.
>>

Thanks anon. I already did/am doing more than half of these things, maybe I'm on the right way, just have to give it a little time to see how things go. I hope this kind advice suits what OP is looking for.

Is volunteering a valid alternative to part time work while in university? I've been volunteering weekly at a local museum for the past year now, and I'm coming up to the final year of my undergraduate history course. Once I'm thrown into the real world would my volunteering experience have a similar amount of weight to genuine part time work experience?

Yeah I think so. Working is going to be harder than volunteering though.

>Is volunteering a valid alternative to part time work

no, its bullshit. Don't encourage employers to be scummy by accepting unpaid positions.
>>
>>18637559
the experience has the same weight f you don't need the money. if you volunteer at a food pantry sometimes they'll let you have some of the food as "payment" though.

So, I am sleeping with a hooker for 2 monthes. I already spent quite a large sum of money on her. I fell in love in her almost the day I saw her. She is gorgeous.
She is also smart and very pleasant person to talk to. She understand and laughs at my jokes.
I tried to convince her to meet me on her free time, and I finally did it. She gave me her number (real number, not the one she uses for work) and we will meet tomorrow and have a walk in the park.
I like her. I am afraid to screw up. When we fuck or lying completely naked - i feel confidence, and it is very easy for me to talk with her, to make her laugh. But I am afraid, I'll act like retarded autist when we meet like ordinary people. Awkward pauses and stuff like that...
I also want kiss her, but I am not sure this is the right thing to do, because she doesn't let me kiss her while fucking. She says "i don't kiss with clients". But I won't be a client tomorrow.
How should I act myself on this meeting?

She's pretty damaged. She has a history of sexual abuse as a child that left her fucked up and now she can only derive selfworth through sex. She's also a suicidal cutter who has tried to kill herself on multiple occasions. When she asked me to be her boyfriend I saw this vulnerable hypersexual young girl who whould ortherwise end up with some creep who would try and take advantage of her I just wanted to protect her. I wanted to save her and was willing to do anything to that end I even said I'd marry her. When she made sexual advances I tried to tell her I couldn't but I was to afriad to deny her due to her insablity. I was afriad she'd try and kill herself. Lobg story short it ended badly and I learned the hard way that you can't save somone from themselves. Getting involved with her is my biggest regret in life now I feel that if most people knew they'd shun me I feel like society will never see me as a good person again. Am I being mellowdramatic or is this really as bad as I fear?

As long as she didn't report you the police you shouldn't worry.

>I feel that if most people knew they'd shun me I feel like society will never see me as a good person again
You need to stop giving a shit about this.
>>
You made an honest mistake trying to help someone who needed to help themselves. You're a good man anon. Don't feel bad about this, you don't have to worry about her anymore.
>>
There's more though. At one point she told me she'd become inloved with this other guy. This really hurt me I felt like she didin' t care about me dispite how badly I wanted to help her dispite that I was in love with her and I said some hurtful things. Turns out it was a misunderstanding and she just didn't know we were exclusively seeing each other. However my words made her feel as if she really hurt me and pushed her over the edge. She tried to kill herself that night all becuse in my emotional state I forgot that it was never about me it was about her it was about protecting her and I failed her. I acted selfishly and hurt the person I was supposed to protect.

About a week ago I got my medical cannabis license, and a decent amount of a low-THC, high-CBD strain. I used it twice a day for about 3 days, but I haven't used it in about 48 hours because I noticed some weird things were happening. Specifically, there are times where I'll just be doing my normal thing, then suddenly my body will "jolt" a bit and I'll completely forget where I am and what I'm doing. Yesterday this happened while I was walking down my front steps, and next thing I knew I was on the pavement with the shit scraped out of my arm.

I haven't used it in about 48 hours but I'm still having these symptoms. Is this something I should be worried about?

I used to be a hardcore stoner. My circle and I used to smoke practically everyday.

However the last two years I've slowed down on it and in turn I kinda lost touch with them.

However two nights ago we came out for a birthday we had good ol smoke sesh and it was fun. But It was a one night thing and I don't intend to go back and smoke daily.

I also want to hang with them more and develop a friendship with them while being sober.

Tl;dr How to develop friendships without drugs

Explain to them that you're trying to cut back and ask them not to do any drugs when you're with them. If they can't let go of it while they're around you, they probably won't be good friends if they don't understand your more drug free intentions.

I don't mind if they smoke around me, I have enough self-control.
Thanks for the response, your reply made me see the solution.

I will just invite them to normal things like eating, movies, having a few brews, and not just smoke weed.

Should I get circumcised? I've read a lot of girls saying uncut is disgusting and i feel a bit insecure about it.

getting cut is not going to make your shit-skin micro-cock attractive to anyone.
>>
>>18637393
Im cut (because of strong type of phimosis as kid) and it is troublesome to cum while having sex. fapping is no problem since you can use death grip but sex with girls, you wont cum if you are not super horny (like 1 week no fap horny). handjobs from her wont feel good.
basically you loose sensitiveness and gain "stamina" (but thats wrong aswell because sometimes i fuck 20 minutes and i cant cum but im just tired and stop fucking)
i, at least, think it looks better but its not worth it practically.

I was treated with azithromycin for Chlamydia 10 days. It still burns a bit when I pee and it still itches. Google says it should be gone within a week. Should I be worried I still have it? How long before I can retest?

After how many times after losing your virginity does vaginal penetration stop hurting? I've had vaginal sex maybe 15 times right now and it's still slightly uncomfortable. How long did it take for other femanons to get fully comfortable taking dick?

Hey guys, so I'm going to a video game convention today and a lot of local game developers are gonna be there.

I'm hoping to do some networking and ask companies if they're looking to hire for any creative positions. I'm an artist who used to work for a mobile slot machine game company. My job there was converting the slot games that you see at casinos and put them on mobile and Facebook. I would resize the graphics, arrange the graphics to fit the templates for facebook/mobile and adjust the placement of said graphics with xml on y and x axis. Unfortunately I was laid off from this job early this year and have been unemployed since.

My dream job is producing the actual art for a game company, whether it's concept art, UI, storyboarding, etc. But I'm more than happy to find a job similar to what I did.

My question is, how does one approach a game company's booth and ask about job openings? I'm socially anxious so I'm not sure how to approach or even the first thing to say. I don't want to just walk up to an employee and say "hey your games are really cool, can I work for you?"

>>18637382
Sometimes simply walking in and ask could get you far.

As for general networking advice, as usual pay attention to your personal hygiene and grooming, dress appropriately to what you're trying to convey to your target (suit for professional, polo/bowling shirts with chinos/shorts if they're more laid-back or casual)

Don't forget to keep yourself informed with what's been around in world in general or in your local community of interests to be able to strike some small talk.

Be confident with what you've got in your hands, yet always reflect and improve upon hat's lacking.
Remember that even if you're anxious, it doesn;t mean the others are not anxious, they could be feeling the same as you.

There's no shame in getting game over over and over until you could pass the level. Like in videogame.

I'm female. I was just going to wear jeans and a t-shirt with a design I drew that was based on a video game. Should I change to a regular top?
>>
>>18637425
As I said, this is a game convention, with booths set up to play games, so I'm not sure whether to dress casual, like wear my shirt with a video game design I created with the intention to start a conversation with, or something more professional like dark jeans and a nice top since I want to make a good first impression. I assumed most people there are dressed casually.

This is like New York Comic Con, but for indie games.

Ive grown up as the typical r9k dude

Im not completely hopeless, im 19, not a virgin and have gad gf's before.

Although i still spend most of my time alone

i have this deep seeded worry of being a pathetic looser the rest of my life and a fear ill be missing out on my youth if i dont do something with it

Ive been considering doing things i never really waned to do/thought of doing in order to become more sociable and likeable. (drinking, drugs, lifiting)

Is this a good path to go down? People tell me you should just "do what makes you happy" and ive been doing that for the last 19 years of my life and clearly that didn't do anything for me.

If "do what makes you happy" stopped working on you then you've to try its close brother, "do what makes you afraid of/fear" while still remember its nagging cousin, the "be responsible to whatever the fuck you're doing/you've done to yourself/anyone"

>meet a girl i really like
>wasted time, didn't get to know her name
>dumbassfag.jpeg
>need advice on how to find her
>I know roughly where she is from and what she looks like (pic related)
>need help to find her FB Now I managed to find out while talking to my parents that she allegedly took a reservation at a close (to where I was then) camping spot. I don't know what's callled but there's only 3 of them.
Where do I go from here? I was thinking about calling and asking for info, but I don't know how to handle that.
Ask me anything.
Yes, it could be worth it
What I gathered to this moment
>blue hair, so easily recognizable i guess
>in her twenties, 25 max i'd say
>I heard her say she is from Forlì, whether the city itself or the vicinity I can't tell
>we met in San Martino di Castrozza

1-Message her
It might turn into a platonic thing, it works out like that with me. I will figure something out
2- I have the fortune to be charming enough not to come out as a creep.
Yeah, except for that shitty pic I took I behave like an average guy. This AND she was looking at me, quite persistently I might add, and not because I'm an oddball, that much is sure. Shit, people said she blushed while looking at me. No, I'm not projecting and I'm also sorry if I come out as an arrogant prick, I'm just looking for adv.
Help
