I dunno what to do /adv/. I can code some basic shit but when I get stuck I have no flow and give up quickly.
As someone who doesn't have the opportunity to upskill and go to uni, finish it. Unless you have a solid business plan, knowledge and ability and its up and running already you're not fit to drop out. Believe me when I say you will be utterly fucking miserable and stuck in dead end jobs without it.

Get through uni. I know it sucks, I hated it too, but the jobs at the end seriously are pretty cushy. You don't even have to work *that* hard.
Try and find time to work on some personal projects, whether it's a mobile app, web app or something cool using robotics or AI. You honestly only need to dedicate a few hours to such projects a week, and it results in better grades, renewed interest in engineering and a much better resume for getting jobs.

It is surprising
I have absolutely no clue how to make friends.
I had one friend all throughout highschool and then we split up. I'm decently funny and friendly I think and most people seem to like me a bit.
I've made temporary friends out of necessity that I hang out with once or twice but as soon as I stop having class with them or working together we drift apart. I haven't met anyone I feel close to like a best friend. I just have trouble caring about other people's problems a lot of the time.
I have no problem dating, and rely too much on my partner for companionship. How do I make good friends and keep them?

Read brazillion self help books on the topic and try out everything you consider even remotely useful and keep doing so until you think you know better than all those authors.
Has anyone been invited to a threesome with a couple?
I have a feeling I got a female friend, who has a bf and they're both into pretty explorative shit, to consider it while we were chatting drunkenly one night. (basically she asked if I wanted, I said of course and she seemed like she was thinking it over)
(tldr messed up chances over alcohol)
Buuuuut later on in the night things happened and long story short drunk decisions made me apologize to her the day after, we didn't sleep with each other but things happened that I wouldn't consider in a sober mind doing with someone in a relationship. I don't want to mess up her relationship and our friendship, but I feel like I kind of killed any opportunities for a threesome with her. Is there any way of working my way back into such a talk, or did I mess up my chances with her?
>>18595452
wtf. So its ok if you bang her during a threesome with her bf there but messing around while drunk you are guilt riddled?
Look, she is more at fault here than you since she is the one in a relationship and I bet her bf knows nothing about the threesome talk so get that out of your head. If he knew and they as a couple were serious it wouldn't be drunk talk. Oh, stop referring to her as your friend she is not, she is a girl you are trying to fuck and will take it anyway you can.
Are you a girl? If so don't do it, she's just trying to fullfil her boyfriend's fantasies. If you're a dude, might as well look into it further
My birthday just passed and I got no sex/blowjob from my significant other of 3 years. I've told her before, all I need to be happy is blowjob and jokes.
The major problem for me is that I HATE having to ask for sex, etc. It feels incredibly beta/needy. And then if she is not in the mood, which is a lot nowadays, then the feeling of rejection is sickening.
How do I get her to want to hook up, without being explicit?
>>18595451
make a move like you would a girl you havnt been in a relationship with for years. not really reasonable to expect a long time partner to eventually become a free sex dispenser i mean the other person needs to be turned on too.
3 years. Dump.
Ask her how you can satisfy her. If you show an interest in her sex life, she will show interest in yours. Communicate openly and honestly.
Beginning with myself because I'm the fucking OP.
>work for 40 hours a week
>sit inside and do nothing on my freetime
>very occasionally get into a videogame that i'll play until finish, or drop ten minutes in, it varies a lot
>look out the window
>"man, I should go out and get some air, even exercise and lose weight, I really need that"
>don't because of dozens of excuses, laziness, and/or because "I'm already at my computer anyway, so I'll do it another day"
>have various things I'd be interested in getting into like drawing, watching series, give making digital music a try, getting fit, find friends, even just go out and chill in the sun with some music playing in my ears
>"Meh, I'm at my computer, something could come up, I could be missing out on irritating shitposting to argue and debate and get angry over! MAYBE I'll feel like starting up one of the dozens of videogames I have, but nah, I'll probably get bored ten minutes in, why bother?"
>stare at my monitor until i go to bed
I haven't had friends in several years.
Over the last few months it's become my strongest desire.
I spent High School as this "relaxed loner" type. I thought that was who I was inside but I was wrong. Now that i've graduated and realize I didn't get close to anybody I feel sad.
I start college in a week. How do I find the life I want?
Oh hey I can actually help with this! I was in a similar situation leaving high school, and now I have some great friends at Uni!
Since we're on 4chan I can't go into super detail, but my biggest advice is to actively search. You will have to approach people and be open to being approached
Any chance you can get to comment on what someone is doing, take it. But learn the difference between being annoying, and random. Random is good, annoying is bad.
Keep whatever internet lingo you know on the down low, present yourself as social and easygoing, keep notes in class and don't purposely sit alone. If there's no dedicated seating position you should try and socialize with a few groups. Also present yourself as the reliable type, know the schedule and what needs to be done for the classes, so people naturally sort of rely a little on you

How do you become a good student /adv/?
start learning stuff u dumb fuck
Set many small goals.
Summarize during classes, be present, have a good sleeping schedule, communicate and group yourself with other good students.
i want to improve myself in order to be able to be independent and be able to work
i decided to read books both in English and French , so one day if i had to communicate with somebody important i wouldn't fuck things up
i'm a university student,so i'm trying to study during summer,to have the advantage on other students next year,because it's crucial for me
i thought about trying to write articles, so i can find study related jobs , with magazines for example
what do you advice me to do next anons?
you could be a freelance interpreter to some french people and help them communicate with people who speak english, that way you can get some experience in interpreter intercommunication

thank you
I just can't get over her. It's destroying me. I haven't even seen her in months, and our "thing" only lasted for about a month. It was a fuckbuddy scenario gone wrong - we both had feelings for each other, but when I left my hometown for uni she lost her mind and had a breakdown and although I begged into try LDR she couldn't do it and got with some other guy. When she spent some time in a psych ward over Christmas, I visited her before he did, and brought her flowers, and she told me she'd forgotten how much she loved me, but still ended up getting back with the other guy after their little spat. I haven't heard from her in months but I think about her constantly. I don't think I'll ever be able to stop needing her.

>she spent some time in a psych ward
You sure you still want to pursue this one anon? Might as well kys now and get it over with.
>>18595192
A lot of how we cope and move on from a situation depends on how we think about it. Telling yourself "I don't think I'll ever be able to stop needing her" puts her on a pedastal in your mind. The truth is, you never needed her and you don't now. You lived your whole life before this woman came into it and you will live a whole life now that she's gone. Stop looking back at the past and keep your eyes open for new situations. You can do better than someone who has mental problems and chose another man.
I have this strange addiction to her. It's been like six months and yet she's inside my soul. It was all over within two months.
Long story short, i started texting this girl but i don't like her at all and i want to stop talking to her and go back to my lone routine again. She is in the same class as me. Help!
ignore her or say some weird shit like: I like to watch dead birds
I have a chronic disease. I've been diagnosed for over a year, but I'm still stressing over a number of things:
-aesthetic changes and having to a work a lot harder to not look like total shit
-being too tired and sick to do anything ever
-taking a million billion meds and meds for the side effects of those meds
-constant pain
-being extremely poor bc stuck on SSI
-risk of a not-so-fun death
-the knowledge that I'll never get out of it
I know I'm much luckier than many. After all, I have insurance, meds, and an income. But it's still extremely depressing sometimes and I just want my old life back. Anyone else here have a shitty chronic illness? How do you cope?
Hey everyone, I have a question about networking and being socially awkward.
So over 7 years ago, I graduated from a school that specialized in cartooning and comic books. As much as I love comics, I realize now that's it super difficult industry to get into.
A year ago, I was approached by a friend of a friend to storyboard the entire first episode of a cartoon series he was pitching to Nickelodeon.
Now I have never done storyboarding before, but as someone who has drawn cartoons and comics, I was sure I could transfer that ability to storyboarding. So I did tons of research, and ended up drawing over 650 panels for this pilot.
I've ended up growing a love for storyboarding and now want to consider a career in it, but these boards are technically the only storyboard work I've done. I'm wondering if I could find work with these boards alone, of if I need to draw more boards from different stories.
Now, I found out a classmate I graduated with is working as a storyboard artist for Warner Bros Animation. I'm Facebook friends with her, so I've thought about contacting her, but since I've never physically seen her in 7 years, I'm not quite sure how to approach her.
I was going to send her a private message on facebook and just ask her for advice on storyboarding and ask her to review my work, but since we graduated together, it's weird to ask her for "mentorship" I'm also hoping maybe this will lead to her to refer me for a storyboard job at Warner Bros.
How would you approach this situation? What would you do or say?
I'm a fag and I just want a bf already how do I get one?

LSD is a euphoriant in addition to psychedelic properties, I suspect if you did MDMA you would feel the same. As someone who's been there and done that many many times I suggest you find something other than euphoriants that brings you to at least melancholy content. It takes work.
