I met this girl through a friend and I really want to ask her out. My friend is confident that she'll go out with me so I'm not really afraid of rejection, but I can't help but think of everything that could go wrong (she ends up not liking me, I end up not liking her, her family/friends don't like me, mine don't like her, she gets pregnant, etc...) and it's holding me back from asking her.

I've never dated before so I don't know what to expect. How do I get over this?

so a girl i really liked and finally asked out rejected me flat and i keep having nightmares were shes in them and one or both of us die in various ways. am i going crazy? also it very much has to do with what i was doing the previous night. so one dream was full of headcrab zombies since i played half life 2 before bed. Why she is always in the dream is since im always thinking of her and what i could have done. for her to say yes when im not actively doing something.

I don't know why, but since I've been back in school I've felt insanely depressed. I am doing well, getting on time and whatnot. But I feel only happy on the surface, and just feel empty on the inside.

I feel like the only way I can deal with this is to just do something bad. It can be something as simple as eating extra food I don't need to, or as big as just doing things that are assholish. It makes me feel relaxed, for some odd reason.

It's been like this for a long time, happy on the surface, empty on the inside. My life is going well otherwise. Is there something I'm missing?

Anyone know what this problem is?
Sometimes I'll feel spaced out. Like light headed and difficult to concentrate. I suppose it's similar to being slightly drunk but closer to how I feel when I haven't taken my meds for a few days.
I'd say that's what the cause is except I'm pretty sure it happens when I have been taking my meds too.
It seems to happen often on a saturday when I'm supposed to do something social and don't really want to so I wonder if it's connected to that.

I post this thread so I can get some (maybe undeserved) time to me and perhaps just get some (much needed) attention from any of you. It’s not bad to crave for some attention sometimes right?

Around 6 years ago a situation happened in which I was mocked and laughed at by a random person. Back then I was in high school, I was waiting for the bus (which took a long time to pass), and this person was waiting for something, or someone. We were far apart, around 10 or 15 meters, and I was simply waiting when I noticed he would look at me repeatedly and laugh.

He looked at me several times, even when I was looking at him, and he always had a big smile, coupled with curious big eyes, almost as if they were sticking out. He did this for about an hour.

The man was big, or chubby, I remember him being bald and white, maybe in his 30’s. Remembering his smile creeps me out, last night I almost couldn’t sleep remembering the entire situation.

I stood there and didn’t do a thing (didn’t even have the balls). Eventually he just signaled a taxi, got up, and left.

After a couple of weeks the same thing happened again. This time I was walking with some friends after school to the bus stop and there he was in the exact same position, I believe he had the same attire. When we were waiting I turned to my friend and asked him if he could see the big man with the white buttoned shirt and if he was looking at me. “Yes” – my friend said – “Yes. And he’s laughing”. My friend laughed too, I didn’t laugh so much.

I don’t remember much else.

So im 18 male . I have good social skills. Just last week broke up with gf of 2 years. Hurts like hell but whatever i guess i dont see us getting back together or staying together. I have lots of acquaintances but few good friend maybe like 10 people that i actually hangout and whatnot with. So two main questions. When i am by myself with no friends wanting to do anything what can i go do to take my mind off things untill i heal. Cant go to bars/clubs which is a shame because its perfect but rip. Also while i was with her for so long she was insecure and blah blah blah so i have pretty much no female friends which doesn't help how can i meet girls/get some shit going. I have good social skills like ive said just i guess a puss when i comes to actually getting started with a chick.

Retail cuck here needing some advice

>working in the warehouse at Best Buy
>new phone comes out today
>7 employees assigned to one area to help people buy the new phone
>while I'm doing warehouse shit (stocking, picking orders) people bombard me with questions about the new phone constantly
>group of 7 employees stand around watching videos and shooting the shit
>don't get my work done because I'm doing their work essentially

Is it because I'm alone and out in the open and they're in a group? Do I need to shoot the shit with other employees to not get pulled away from what I'm doing? I'm talking like 50 people stopped me in a 6 hour shift to help them find a case for their Note 8, get stock counts or general information about the product. Not sure what to do so I can avoid feeling like a cuck who can't do his work properly

Hello /adv/

I'm a 25 YO, straight.

This gay guy I met at work just started to message me out of nowhere in the middle of the night.

As I'm not really a rude person or anything I always reply to everyone. I want t clarify that I no longer see this man anywhere as we do not work together anymore.

This guy eventually started messaging me nudes of his friends (girls) out of nowhere, which I kind of thought was odd.

He keeps messaging me every now and then, and says he wants to invite me over to meet some of his friends (again, girls).

I honestly am starting to be a little suspicious about this all. He even presses me for an answer when I don't reply to his messages.

Does this guy want to rape me or something?

Should I tell this faggot to fuck off or just ignore him?

Throughout my life, people have been asking "what's that smell?" or "did someone fart?" when I'm around. My self-esteem is in the fucking garbage can. How do I resolve this?

(1/2)

I'm a 30 year old animator, my last job was at a shitty game studio, had to go on unemployment because they couldn't pay us. I can't get another job, and before that job I had struggled for 2 years to get full time work. That was after getting a master's degree.

I have major depression and don't know if I care to live after my money runs out. I have enough to last 2-3 months.

I'm considering trying to learn a coding/ programming language like Python in hopes that I can either change discipline within my industry or change careers entirely. But I don't know if that or any other new career path is feasible in that short of a time. Would I actually be able to learn enough to qualify for a real job?

What happens when the money runs out would have to be something like a minimum wage job, putting most of my stuff in storage, moving somewhere with cheap rent, hoping I get insurance at that job or going on medicaid, working my ass off, training more after hours, maybe having to move in with one of my parents.

I already went to 7 years of school and carry way too much debt. I have major depression and can't get hope or motivation, all I see is another couple months of feeling exhausted and hopeless and spending that time futilely trying to learn programming. I can't get myself to care about trying hard again, after all the school I've already done. "Staying alive" doesn't motivate me. I'm on meds and see a therapist weekly. Nothing seems to work which makes me even more hopeless. No matter how much effort I put into something, it never translates to success or stability. All of the above makes me think I'll end it when I run out of money instead of living out a shit life.

I need to know... where did everyone go? Every year since the eternal summer of 2007 I just feel more and more lost. Is there any other chan left that isn't dead, or a trap to have suits knocking on your door?

I have had this childhood friend for years, who I do like hanging out with, but she doesn't get along with any of my other friends nor my boyfriend. They don't even want to tolerate her, in fact my friends get pissed when I invite her to hang out, even though they've accepted her help on multiple occasions and I don't know what to do? I don't want to stop hanging out with my friend, nor do I want to stop hanging out with my friend group, but my friend group takes so much of my social time, its hard to separate them all.
