so basically I am pretty sociable but I was on this summer camp type thing over the week and made a fairly large group of Friends. but however there was a couple of girls I wanted to talk to but never got around to doing so.

so I got lucky and They sat next to me whilst I was on the sofa in the common room and we started talking. the two girls seemed pretty sweet a kind to me and asked why I never spoke with them or others. I said "I find it hard maintaining conversations" but double that statement with "but you guys seem pretty nice and easy going"

they responded with "aww thank you. If you ever want to talk just sit by us"

did I make my self look like a bitch?

I heard girls don't find socially-inept guys attractive. (but I'm not I just feel like they got that impression)

Everyone knows introverts exist dude. No harm in being honest. When I read your title I thought you literally said "you find socializing with girls awkward" to others. That would have been bad.

Introverts are reserved and find social interactions draining.

Is there any way to tell if a number is a burner number?

I've been getting weird texts from weird numbers and the only way it would make sense is if someone is messing with me.
At least, I hope its just one person.
They usually have a number like 587-409-????.

Can anyone identify if that's from an app or not?

I had a one night stand with this girl July 2nd. We really hit off.

I haven't seen her since and she's been on my mind literally every single fucking day. How do I end this?

so i'm a comp sci major with a whopping 16 credits done already, but i need to decide soon which of the versions of the major to go with. my school offers 4:

computer science- computer science
computer science- big data
computer science- business
computer science- international engineering

straight cs gives all the credits needed for a math minor, and includes cs theory courses not found in all the other majors.

big data only requires math up to calc 2/linear algebra, but includes a ton of statistics courses and requires cs classes like data mining.

cs- business only requires math up to calc 2 (no linear algebra), and besides the 47 cs credits requires credits in accounting, management, finance, business, and economics. results in a business minor with no extra classes. close to devoid of cs theory courses with an emphasis on application (straight up coding).

omg it's too long because 4chan sucks. continued below <3

cs- international engineering requires less math than straight cs (no math minor without extra classes), but more than the business and big data majors. beyond calc 2/linear algebra you need 2 more junior or higher math courses. also engineering statistics. comp sci requirements are mostly electives meaning you can theory/application/mix/etc. whatever you like. also requires 4 semesters of foreign language (i'm interested in spanish) and a semester or year abroad.

all majors require 4 lab science courses, like chem/phys/etc.

my thoughts right now are that business is the way to go. less math is a good thing but i've always been good at math anyway so math minor probably wouldn't be an issue. i've always thought of business classes as easy compared to "real" academic work so that's a plus, and i've heard that going the business route makes you more attractive to potential employers if you're looking for work at a typical business. anyone know if this is true?

international engineering seems pretty cool too. would make me get serious about spanish after messing around with it for years lol, and semester abroad could be a really great experience. plus knowing a foreign language always looks good on an application, right? if i went this route i'd probably focus less on cs theory and more on practical applications that would hopefully look good to future employers.

thoughts??

This is gonna sound fucking stupid, just a heads up. How common is friendships failing after high school? There are people I consider important to me, but they aren't really trying to hang out anymore. Granted, they smoke weed and I no longer do, but I feel kind of hurt by it all. We also have a mutual friend who they see who's a girl I dated and I'm almost positive she has poisoned the well regarding me. These were female friends I felt very close to, and now it seems they've tossed me aside. They're both friends, too, btw. My male friends continue to make efforts to see me and hit me up and see how I'm doing. Why is this? Are female friendships just weaker like that? I genuinely had some tough times in the past few years and I just wanted to talk to them, but they slowly filtered themselves out. Yet they still like stuff like my instagram posts and shit. So they can ignore but like my posts?

I'm thinking of deleting a lot of the people I don't talk to. Is this petty? I just feel like they're kind of trash friends who don't give a fuck for whatever reasons they may have, whether that be my ex making me look like shit or whatever it may be. I'm like extremely close to just saying fuck em and getting them out of my life for good. What you think /adv/? I feel like it's rash and maybe I don't wanna burn bridges but fuck, what are they going to get me? They aren't friends to me, so why should I care?

Well you will have to ask yourself if you want to spend time with them, if not just remove them if you feel like it.

If the hit you up and ask why you removed them just say that you thought they didn't want to be friends anymore and you just cleaned upp your friendlist so that you don't have to scroll so much to get to the ppl you are talking too.

Or just be a cunt and say suck it or fuck it.

not many things are as common as this. most high school friendships fail due to people moving away and developing in different directions

Hey 4chan. I never posted but I've been lurking for years now.
I'm 20 living in a shittiest part of Europe (eastern) and I'm going insane here. My only goal now is to get as far away as I can. I've been thinking about cruise ship industry. Do you know any other jobs that I could just send my CV to, get interviewed or something and then just fuck off from this shitty shit hole? And yeah, my passport is a non eu passport so it's not as easy for me to just move to like Germany or Canada. Even tho I have a lot of international friends, lack of eu passport is making it sooo damn hard to move. Any advices?

Looking for actual advice.
I just found out today that I'm going to be a Morning Show Radio Host in a small town of about 6000. It's surrounded by other small towns. Here's the thing; I've just graduated from a Broadcasting School a few months ago, and 21 y/o born and raised in a big city. How do I acclimatize to a smaller town, and any other radio host advice.

There's a coworker that is obviously into me. She's really sweet and we share the exact same sense of humor. We make each other laugh and I genuinely like spending time with her; however, I'm not attracted to her and she has a kid.

I've always believed that men and women can't be "just friends." I've been friendzoned before and it fucking sucks. I don't want to make myself a hypocrite, but at the same time, I don't want to date a girl with a kid.

We've gone out for drinks once before (her idea) and we're going again tonight (also her idea). If she brings up that she wants to start dating, how am I supposed to turn her down without making her feel like shit?

It's really strange being on the other side of this situation for once.

just say you're flattered but you think you're better off as friends

if she doesn't want to be friends anymore respect that and give her some distance
>>
Ask her if you can bring a friend or friends for tonight. No matter what she says, she will understand you don't see it as a date or don't want to date. And from then on play clueless to all of her advances until she gives up.

As a guy it's really easy for you. As they say, women are the gatekeepers of sex; men are the gatekeepers of relationships. All you have to do is not reciprocate and there's no relationship.

Hello everyone.

There was a girl I saw. Her face, the way she moved and handled herself. It was like she was so much more than everyone else. Over a few days I looked at this girl on the beach. Everything about her was noble, yet sexy and I wanted to just get to know her. Be her friend and then take it further.

I finally decided to do something about it. I was decided to talk to her, I felt like we would click perfectly since she also stared at me constantly and smiled at me.

Two days ago I ran to that same beach after work to find her. Gone. My heart stopped and it hasn't since started again. She was a tourist and she is gone. I lost my only chance of finding someone meaningful, someone I truly admired.

What now? I feel so lost. I've never felt liek this for a stranger before. There was something about her and I lost her forever.
My problem is not the immense hurt. My problem is the hurt going away and me forgetting she was there in the first place.

Hi /adv/, here's my situation
About a year ago, aprilish 2016, I met a guy online and we pretty much clicked. I thought he was a cool dude (no homo) and he felt likewise. He warned me early on that he had a tendency to go into depressive fits and remove the few people he knows on social media (we'd talk using steam). This january he removed me and blocked me. I tried to get in contact with him a couple of times, but with no luck.

In May he added me back, and we hit off like there had never been a 5 month gap, got back to talking and playing vidya and stuff. This morning, he left again, and there's no way that I can contact him and at least say goodbye. What do I do? I don't know.
pic unrelated
(I'm a guy too if you couldnt glean that from the post, theres no romantic attraction here.)

Not much you can do.
Enjoy his company when he makes himself available.
I wouldn't recommend confronting him about it either.

My boyfriend has an alcohol problem. He stopped drinking for a week and a bit but is now saying he will have a few drinks on special occasions.

I've read that alcoholics can't occasionally drink because it will lead back to problem drinking eventually. I'll admit though, I would like to be able to have a glass of wine with a special dinner. Yesterday for our "special occasion" we had 4 drinks each throughout the day. (Mostly beer)

What should we do about this? Is it a problem?

I think it's better that he can have a couple drinks a week than abstain completely. If he BINGES on those days though it's bad. But it shows he has full control over himself if he can handle a couple beers at parties/holidays.
>>
>>18576023
Are you the same poster from this weekend? If your boyfriend went into withdrawals like that poster said, then he's probably not in the spot where he can have a few on special occasions without it turning into something worse.

I believe moderation can work but it takes a TON of self control, and it's even better to have someone around that is helping you keep track of it.

You can always try it out, and if it doesn't work, start from ground zero again. Maybe try moderation management meetings, instead of something like AA?

Medical state: Social anxiety, depression, OCD, Gad (generalized anxiety disorder)

Problem: I'm so anxious when thinking about school, i was never bullied (friends sometimes tease me, and i keep overthinking whatever they do even when i know they don't mean harm), in public whenever i hear a cuss word i think its directed towards me, and i think about that for months and get anxious, i think what if these people see me again, will i get bullied ?. I'm so nervous in front of class when i have presentations, i barely ever answer to teachers questions, even when i know the answers. I'm anxious when just thinking about school and i can't get rid of these thoughts. Only time i was really bullied was a long time ago, i got slapped and threatened, i was 8. From that point on i bullied others actually, and gradually stopped. Could this have something to do with my current situation ?

Few things buddy

Your perception of the world, as being a frightening place where people are going to ridicule you and denounce you, is NOT BASED IN REALITY. These feelings of anxiety and fear towards other people are entirely produced by errors in your brain. This is the most important thing to realize.

Now, take this understanding. Go do something routine for yourself like getting groceries or whatever is equivalent (getting gas, going to the bank, going to school).

As soon as you start feeling the symptoms of anxiety and fear, stop what you're doing, and while still in private, close your eyes and breathe deeply. Remind yourself that you are an individual with intrinsic worth in this world and that people respect you. Remind yourself that there is no reason for you to be so scared. Truly understand this.

Then hopefully the interaction will go better. It won't be perfect, you'll still get nervous, but it might be better. Keep practicing.

Failure is necessary for success. Do what you feel is the best to do and learn with the mistakes you make. Go with the flow, anon. Never make the same mistake twice. Wish you the best of luck.

I am not talking about being a selfish person. I am rather talking about how to focus on your own betterment and love yourself?

I'm a person who always help others more efficiently than myself.

For example: When a friend asks for a help in a college assignment, I do it with utmost efficiency, making it look as good as possible. However when it comes to my assignment, I do it either lazily or not so efficiently. When it comes to marks or grades, the friend's assignment scores more than mine even when 95% of the work in his will be done by me.

Is this a condition? How do I help myself in this? Any kind of advise is widely welcome. Thanks.

Don't do other people's assignments

Basically just when someone asks for help do your best to give it but if it's to your own detrement then explain that to them. If they say it's okay then cool but if they kick off about you not helping them they are the selfish ones
