When I was in school K-5, I breezed through shit all day. No study, no homework, but nailed shit. 6-8, I started struggling with maths but did fine everywhere, except my work ethic disappeared. 9-12 I stopped doing shit, but could keep passing. I didn't do work unless it kept me from failing, and had a pronounced difficulty with math. Barely graduated, and now I have no motivation to do shit similar to school work if I need to. I also am still a complete fuckup with math, particularly abstract shit like algebra and related.

What heppen. Am I just retarded as an adult?

Yes. Some people just develop and peak very quickly. That's why generally women are more intelligent than men until about 18, where women stop developing intellectually.
>>
>>18587360
At some point, raw intellect becomes an insufficient tool for success and a level of personal accountability is required. Motivate yourself to study more and work harder.
>>
>>18587360

Sorry to break the news but abstract subjects like math and sciences[not highschool shit] are the main way to measure problem solving abilities and complex reasoning.

whereas most other subjects are just a pointless game of memory.

So if you fail at the former you are most likely below average iq.

I know no one can predict the future, but i'm graduating in a year, and i'm just anxious. my resume looks good, right? I feel like that is a lot of stuff, but I have friends who have spent the summer in LA or Europe or NYC. I mean, I don't think I would be getting hired in college if my work wasn't up to snuff.

Anybody have experience with getting a job after college? Especially in the journalism/media/marketing field.

You're fine in terms of work experience. Your personality and demand for your field will dictate how easily you land a job now.

It's all about relevant experience these days. What about eating baguettes and drinking wine with other pretentious retards is relevant to journalism?

How do i rekindle that love for being alone and independent and introspective that I had as a teen? Now at 26 i feel like i should have a wife and kids and a house and a big bank statement. Im getting there but the pressure is brutal and im so unhappy that i think about suicide. I just want to enjoy late nights listening to tunes and surfing 4chan again but nothing is the same.

You remind me of myself and Brent D'Silva.

Maybe for introspection: try self-enquiry, heart centered awareness, and a healthy dose of existentialism and wonder

Humans are naturally social creatures that crave the affection of others. It is paramount in ensuring the continued survival of our species. Suppressing your emotions and forcing yourself into independent and lonely situations is likely encouraging your depression.

What's a good way to learn how to cut your own hair? Did anyone write a book about this?
I'm fed up with barbers ruining my hair to be honest plus I'd like to save the money.

you are male or female?

>>18587279
I used to be a barber. Cutting your own hair is generally not a good idea unless you're going for a buzzed look.
>>
>>18587279
its super easy, just learn to work with one hand buzzer one hand mirror. And learn to make precise movements while everything is the opposite in the mirror.

>>18587293
a barber does not know shit about cutting its own hair. it is totally different and requires other skills.

Practice 20 times and you got it down if you have decent motor skills

I am not sure to get a skate board online or go out of town to a skate shop. Im afraid to go to a skate shop because I know nothing about the parts of a a skateboard, and they might think Im a poser or just look stupid

Only a douchebag would think you're a poser.

Just be upfront with whoever is working; you don't know much but want to get into the sport. They will be understanding.
Don't act (i.e. "pose") like you know what you're talking about if you don't. That's how people think you're an ass.

Just be honest. They'll help you; they want to share their passion and make money and you a returning customer.

This goes with any hobby

what the other guy said. if you want to get into it maybe start with a shitty Walmart board. you shouldn't put money in it unless you know you'll like it that's what I tell everyone. but don't be afraid its actually kind of a good feeling to teach someone new things. something I do in situations like this is I do my research. watch youtube videos, reviews, learn whats good and whats not etc just watch youtube. its your best friend.

I want to become a private detective. The requirements are pretty loose, so I don't know if I should go back to school or not. Leaning towards not.

I'm 0/4 getting my calls/emails answered by local firms. Was hoping for some guidance from someone already in the field and maybe even an internship to start getting me hours.

what do (not just about school, that's a secondary decision)

Most PIs are former police officers, lawyers etc. not some kid who decided that being a private detective would be fun. Not to mention, it's not exactly a lucrative job so they wouldn't be hiring or want competition.

A part of me is glad life is this way. I don't have to think, and I just do. I wonder if I'll regret living this way, but I doubt it. There's no way I can live any other way, so it'll be the same.

I don't think I'll ever really have anything else aside from my job, but I think that's ok.

I've come to accept reality, and I know I'm probably never going to get a girlfriend because of this. I'm going to be someone's Uncle as my sister is married, and if that's all I ever become, I think it'd be alright. At least I'm something to somebody in this world.

So I came over to my moms place while they were gone to hang out with my brothers. Things were going great in the beginning. me and my bro smoked weed, played lots, and enjoyed each other. Then things started going downhill.

the first incident was around 3 am. I wanted to go to sleep. My bro started to eat icecream in the hallway which where i was going to sleep, but he wouldn't go into his room. he said it wasn't his problem that I didn't have a room yet like they did,, but it was mine. I was telling him that I needed to sleep but he wasn't and telling me to ignore him. I started to get annoyed and pissed off that he wouldn't leave, coz i cant ignore someone just around the corner while i sleep. I need to be alone. he started saying I was being an a dick and asshole coz i was telling him to go. he was saying he couldnt go into his room and eat coz it was closer to the freezer (bullshit). my anger kept rising and it unleashed when he said i was being an asshole. I screamed at him to stop calling me an asshole. This was after many times he was telling me i was being a bully/dick/hostile and mean to him.

Last few things he told me was he'd stop playing games and hanging out with me coz I was ignoring him while i was packing my things. I didn't even say anything to him before he said that.

Now things are quick and pretty distant with him. I hardly ever talk to him now. I'm soon to be moving in with my mom. How can i decrease the distance between us and go back to how things were? If he ever starts calling me those things again how should I respond? It hurt a lot..

How do I stop?

I don't find my girlfriend sexually attractive. There's no effort needed. I can do anything g whenever I want. I miss the chase lads. Flirting with how for a few days, saying everything right to get load and them fucking the shit out of her and bailing.

Now there's no need to chase anything. Its just handed to me and I have to be perfect because ei have to see her again. Can't get it up? I! a shitty boyfriend. Didn't maker her cum? Shitty boyfriend. Sex feels like a performance act instead of a raw natural experience where I don't give a fuck what happens or how the girl feels.

I keep psyching myself out and I haven't fucked her in a few weeks. I've never had a gf but I've fucked 43 women. I'm 21.

My gf and I recently moved in together but I'm feeling somewhat bad about it, in some ways.

First, I worry I won't really be able to pursue any hobbies of my own at home, because I feel guilty when we're both around and I'm not doing something with her. How do I balance out space for her and my own interests?

Second, I feel kind of bad since she will be paying about 25% more than me in rent. This was her idea since she makes considerably more money than I do. Even though she's happy with this now, what should I do if later on she starts feeling that this is unfair?

Finally, I still get urges to masturbate every now and then, even though she's usually up for sex. I think part of this stems from the fact that I have a few kinks I like to indulge, but every time we tried one of these in the bedroom in the past, it was just pretty awkward. We have a reasonable amount of sex, but it's mostly vanilla. Should I try to spice it up in bed, or would it just be better to carve out some time for masturbating maybe once a week or so?

Jesus, dude. You went at this half assedly, yeah? She has her own hobbies, no? When she's doing her shit, you do your shit. Or even better, involve her in your hobbies. She said she is fine with paying more rent. That is as far as it goes. She's a big girl, let her make her own decisions on how she pays for things.
>Gee should I try spicing up our bedroom life or risk resenting her for my own inability in bringing up my kinks
I'll let you decise that one.
>>
surely if she makes more money than you she gets home later than you yeah? fap when shes not there

as far as rent goes: as long as you are seeking a better job or are striving towards a promotion then she doesn't have a right to be mad because it was her idea

>>18587168
I'm married, my husband dose things he enjoys on his own all the time, so do I, it's really not that big of a deal. Neither is the money thing, you guys will never make the exact same amount. Someone is always going to be paying a bit more at one point or another. It's not anything to worry about as long as you work hard to and contribute what you can then it's fair. I make more then my husband and pay the majority of the bill, I don't care as long as were both taken care of. The faping thing is normal to feel weird about I guys but again not a big deal. Just do it in the bathroom or when she's not home. But it's nothing to be embarrassed over, I bet she still dose it too

as a guy who's been conditioned by his peers (through bullying) to be insecure, I couldn't accept it when I discovered that the people I tried to please and outdo (and resented )had insecuroties, doubts, and fears of their own despite their arrogant appearance. the monster in me got angry, because it doesn't make sense to me.
do I have a right to be mad?
what do I do?
I honestly want to beat my old school enemies up for not making any sense to me.

So here's my dilemma, /adv/.

My story starts two months ago when my girlfriend of three and a half years broke up with me, seemingly out of nowhere (in hindsight, I was naive to have not seen it coming). I thought everything was going well. I had just graduated and planned on finding work while I figured out what I wanted to do with my future. She, on the other hand, had already interned with a company and has a big job lined up for when she graduates with her masters.

The breakup hit me hard, as you can imagine, but I recovered and tried to make the most of it. I saw it as an opportunity of self-growth and improvement. I did a lot of thinking and I really readjusted my outlook on life and tried to live and healthy and be in shape.

My ex and I are not on speaking terms currently. And a couple weeks ago I thought I might try to brace the dating world again, so I downloaded Tinder (I know, I know), and ended up matching with this girl that I have a lot in common with.

Now, she isn't the most attractive girl I've ever met, definitely not better than my ex. But she's also not unattractive by any means. I'd say a solid 6.5/10. I met with her and we ended up going on several dates. After two weeks I ended up having sex with her in a spur of the moment kind of thing.

I don't want to use the word regret for this situation, because that doesn't seem right. But something about sleeping with this girl is not sitting right with me. She is the second girl I've had sex with. And after having had sex with her, I don't feel the desire to date her anymore, which makes me feel like a piece of human garbage. I usually do not move relationships along that fast and I kinda jumped into it with my dick instead of my brain and now I just feel weird about it. And I miss my ex more than anything, whereas beforehand I thought I was on the road to really getting over her.

I suppose I just need some clarity about what I'm feeling and what I should do to help myself feel better. Should I just forget about women for a while and keeping focusing on myself? Any advice is appreciated.

tldr; two months since ex broke up with me, had sex with a girl from tinder after a couple dates and now I feel weird about it

Early 20s first breakup?

Thank yourself for fulfilling your natural needs, the best way to get over someone is to get under someone else.

There's a company in America that sells a unique product not available in the country I'm living in.

Would I be able to reproduce a similar product and start a business legally?

Note, this'd be something sold from a small independent store with only a handful of employees at most.

Probably not if they have a patent on it. Might first check this out. In the end they might sue you if its too similar. But in the end its about the product and how the product is being made.

You may try to contact the american business to make a deal with them. You open a store and sell their stuff/ build by you.
