I wanna get my gf peridot earrings for her birthday. She's 5'0" tall. What size mm earrings should I get her? Seems like 6mm is what a lot of people get. Would that be to large for her ears?

First time buying her earrings and all she has is pears or cut silver ones but nothing with a single stone or diamond. What would you recommend? I want it to be a surprise so I can't just ask her

I wanna make plans with someone, anyone besides this one annoying guy I know. Thing is, there is absolutely nothing to do in my town and I don't drive. I want to do something before work. I don't want all of my time off wasted in my house playing vidya and jacking off.
What do?

I constantly get angry at everybody and everything. I feel completely powerless to this and would like to know how to get rid of it. Or at the very least learn how to control it.

I'm studying EE right now and I don't know what type of thing I want to do. sometimes I really hate how companies try to seem extremely altruistic, how everything is meant to help people. sometimes I hate people and I feel like technology makes people lazier and I don't want to help people. is there an area of engineering where everything feels justified? what should I do

I don't know if it's just that clip but I'm star struck anyhoo Makes me wonder if the way movies are shot can make the male viewer gay eventually after enough exposure since it's filmed in a way so as to evoke adoration from the viewer/camera?

Hi adv
20 virgin male here. Never had a gf and I always had trouble opening my feelings towards women. That being said, I can openly talk to anyone about almost any topic, except for what I feel for a femanon. Not long ago, I've started using tinder and started talking a bit seriously with a girl. Now it's been some days I'm talking to her.
What I mean by "seriously" is I started opening the chat with something like "hey femanon how are you? I'm doing X right now" and right off the bat I started to wonder about casual stuff like the music she likes or what is she studying right now, telling some stories in between and other stuff, but I never got to move on to asking her for a date because I feel the way I talk to her is as if she was a friend. Yes, a mistake I know, but I find it quite hard to ask her to meet in person. I feel quite nervous just by thinking what she might say. I don't know if it's early to ask her or too late.
How would you follow the conversation to end up asking her for a date? I'm quite interested in her and would like her, in best case scenario, to be my gf.

I have depressing thoughts all the god damned day. I've had helicopter parents that have seemed to see me as a means of taking control of something and lessening their own existential dread, but I've never been able to have my own experiences without going behind their backs. What's worse is that when I tell people (even those I know) about my depressing thoughts, I can expect them to not respond or to even start avoiding me for a while. I'm fucking stuck beside myself, and if I don't become self-sufficient within the next year, I don't see how I'll make it. I'm 22M and about to graduate college with 3.8 BA in Business.

So I was wondering if someone could give me some advice on how to handle certain situations at my job. I specifically work at a resale shop, think Goodwill but not Goodwill entirely. People donate things and we sell them at a mark-down price. Of course our pricing methods are less than ideal, there are 3 of us myself included who do pricing on merchandise and we all have different standards for pricing. One of my co-workers marks everything up because he believes it to be valuable, like an antique. The other one doesn't really have a method to pricing, they just price whatever they feel like. I actually try to research how much the item cost at a retail store and slash that price by 50%, but I've noticed that doesn't sit well with my co-workers/employer.

Frankly I'm thinking of just washing my hands of pricing and letting my other two co-workers handle it, would that be ideal? Sure would take a load off my mind, especially since I have no confidence in my pricing anyway.

I really have no issues just taking a backseat to pricing and letting my co-workers do it since they seem to be more comfortable with it. My other plan was to just start asking them how much to price things, though I'd hate to sound like I can't think for myself. Also how do I handle customers that think are prices are too high? It's tough because no single person is responsible for pricing, so it's hard to think of a way to calm down irate customers when they complain our prices are too high. Would anyone know a proper thing to say in response to that? Because I certainly can't think of one, at least not one that doesn't make me sound like an asshole.

Sometimes they ask me "Who is in charge of pricing?" or "How is pricing done of here?" My superior tells me that it's not the customers business, but I can't say that to their face so it's hard to think of a response when they say these things to me. It's just getting to the point where I don't even want to be responsible for pricing.

I am 24, Italian is my native language.
I think a lot, always without using words.
I can appreciate studying anything and I have resources to do it, but I never did it for myself.
I have never had a purpose in life, except my love, but all the people I cared about gone mad, killed themselves
or died around me.
My resources come from my dead father.
No one ever understood anything of what I was saying emotionally or how I was behaving emotionally.
I do not care to overcome the unhappiness, because I strongly believe that my pain proves my emotions towards my love and she never thought I cared about her.
I would rather die for my stomach melting than give up the importance and thoughts I give to her.

How do I study medicine, I am only driven by commitment and passion towards that single person. I need to put myself in a place where I am socially forced to do it.

I have no self love.
