Eye contact. Never divert your eyes before she (or anyone else) does, unless you notice that it's actually making her uncomfortable. If she makes a point of it, just smile and say "goosebumps!"

Okay. So I noticed my girlfriend has gotten extremely skinny. And we had sex and I saw her spinal cord just there and it freaked me out. I told her a fee hours after sex. And now she said she doesn't feel attractive and she'll work on it but she doesn't feel she can have sex with me because she feels like I'm going to see her as ugly and unattractive. I reassured her and everything nd she still feels this way. What do I do guys? We have amazing sex like everyday. And now it's going to just go away?

Well, why did she become extremely skinny all of a sudden? Maybe you could say that you just want her to be healthy.

I recently applied for a delivery job with Asda or Walmart as you guys like to call it.

I have 1 problem. The vehicles they use are all automatics. I've never driven an automatic in my life. I can however, drive a manual fine and have been doing so for years.

So what i'm asking is, how easy is it to drive an automatic? Do I simply put it in D and do nothing unless I stop the vehicle?

Also any advice or what to expect on during the interviews or driving assessment would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance, complimentary dubs for your time.

They're way easier to learn than manual. You just need to learn to start the engine with the brake pedal, and then control it gas/brake wise, like a gocart. Shouldn't be a problem.
>>
>>18554295
>Do I simply put it in D and do nothing unless I stop the vehicle?


Essentially, yes. You start it in P and then the only thing to be careful about, as previous anon suggested, is that you have your foot on the brake when you shift to D. Then ease up on the brake, ease on the gas and go. (Some newer cars even do that for you - they won't let you shift to D unless you're on the brake.)

Borrow a friend's automatic car, drive it for 5 minutes, and you've got it

Automatics are pretty much complicated go carts, d to drive and then p to park. Dunno what 2 is for t b h never touched a automatic in my life except from my grandmas suzuki vitara. Sounds like a comfy job at Asda though.

Are videogames actually helpful to you? Does it help your brain or give you faster reflexes? Just wondering if what I'm doing for hours in the middle of the night is helping me somehow. I've been playing competitive overwatch.

they help you with thinking, hand eye coordination, communication BUT ONLY if doing it without neglecting studying and socializing

relentlessly smashing buttons in the middle of the night is the exact opposite, competitive playing is a meme, less than 1% make it and they are vile, egoistic creatures and they bust themselfs for money you can easily earn with less effort if you have a normal job
>>
>>18554189
Yep thanks. I just play competitive because its fun really. I have no desire to become a competitive gamer for a living. Just a hobby/ slight addiction. I'm pretty high though, proud of myself

This month was the only time I ever had sex in the past 10 years. It felt good and initially I didn't have a problem with spending $80 on some random chick I met. I pretty much told myself that since I wasn't attractive enough to date, I at least can find someone to fuck.

But you guys were right. It's not fun. It could be, but it's not. The fact that I kept spending money might have been due to my insecurity. Or maybe because it felt good. But after talking with this women I realized how terrible this all is. Every single one had debt they were in and needing quick money to live off of. I'm giving them money to fuck them so they don't suffer and it doesn't seem right to me.

Trying praying but I fucked up again. And it hurts even more because I said I was going to stop and I didn't. So what else do I do to stop the temptation of spending money like this? I never did this before but now I see how people can get sucked in.

I literally cannot play Counter Strike some days because I get so triggered by what my teammates say. It doesn't matter if the game was otherwise good or if we're winning, if one asshole on my team makes a snide remark to me I just can't handle it. I get defensive and hostile, start sweating from my armpits, get an adrenaline rush, and get really shaky. I know it's irrational to get so mad over shit talk on the internet but I can't help it, I'm extremely sensitive for some reason.

It's not just in video games either, when someone in their car yells at me I also get really triggered. I'll replay the moment in my head all day and won't get over it for a week.

I'm also a really shy person, to the point where I'm mute in a lot of situations. It might be because I'm scared of people, scared of the reactions they might have to things I say. It's like socialization is too much for my brain to handle.

I want to be a relaxed person who doesn't care what other people think. It's really ruining my life. When I was 18 I literally quit my job because my boss yelled at me once. That's how bad it is... I'm a 20 year old male btw

It's OK to be sensitive, OP.

Your problem seems to be that you take too many things personally. The guy telling you "fuck your mother bitch" on CS is lashing out because the kid got scolded by his mom for not taking out trash. That boss yelling at you is probably constantly stressed out and prone to yell at most people.

You need to learn that world is not all about you, OP. For example, I am into arts myself, 24 year old male, been to art schools, now a graphic designer, and I am also incredibly sensitive to people's words and prone to rumination and guilt, but I've been also digging into self-help material in the past years, which has helped me to overcome this, while not becoming an asshole.

Basically, I recommend you do deep breathing exercises and meditation, maybe even go for a walk outside occasionally. These have all been scientifically proven to work better than anti-depression medication (not kidding).

Imagine that it's Germany 1940 and some jew gets a knock at the door by SS officers who have an order to escort the jewish family to death camp. Is it likely that their family done something wrong, or maybe, just maybe, it's the case that same faith struck tens of thousands of jewish families in Germany, and it's not them at fault, but the whims of forces greater than them which they cannot control? That is how life can be sometimes, that you have to submit to a certain faith, and make the best of the circumstances you are given. Is Hitler mad at Goldstein family in particular, or all jewish families at once? The latter one, just like how boss yelling at you has an anger problem, not that you are a fuck up and they need to go out of their way to punish you.

Take magnesium & fish oil supplements once/twice a day, both are really good for mental faculties and brain. Google about this, there is endless list of benefits.

Any creative/technical hobby is good. Literally whatever you pick, it's going to sharpen your mind. It's although preferrable to pick one that you can cash in as you progressively get better.

Guys guys guys... I need help so bad. I will keep it short.

So I'm a new graduate from Computer Engineering in Turkey. I was planning to work in my university's research department with an above-average salary for 1 year, it's my city and I would be really comfortable. Meanwhile, learn german and improve myself hard in programming etc. After 1 year I was planning to go to Germany to do my Master Degree and settle there.

But yesterday I got an offer from Mercedes-Benz Truck Factory - IT with a great salary. The problem is the city which the factory in is so small and you can do nothing there. They told me you are going to work as a Project Manager, Business Consultant, IT Architect. Because someone left there and I need to cover it up. If you ask how did they find you, I did my internship there and they liked me.

So what do you say, what should I do? I have an obligatory military service in 2 years in Turkey if I don't go to a foreigner country like Germany or Netherlands etc.

Look into it, could definitely be good for your career. You could even manage to look for jobs in Germany after having worked there for a while, as an internal company transfer.
>>
Both sound like great options, well done.
Research will be rather quiet, self-driven, at-your-own pace sort of thing. You'll learn how to ask the right questions and navigate research environment. It will be better if you want to stay in academia.
PM will be stressful, sink-or-swim kinda deal. You'll learn how to make things happen in a profit-driven environment. It will be better if you want to stay in industry.
After either one, your path is not set in stone. In the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on.

I appreciate your valuable feedbacks. The thing is I don't want to spen my life in a small city like there and I probably leave there in maximum 2 years. Do you think it's worth to work there for that much time? I'm also not sure about the internal transfer chances.

I don't want to regret my decision after years...

>>
>>18554124
Oh okay i thought this is /adv/ not /rant/

So, I've been kind of a loner for the last 2 years.
I've always been stressed out about my looks, since I was pretty young. The thought was always looming in the back of my head. Whenever the word ugly was said around me people would get quiet like oh no we said ugly around him that's not nice. My little sister called me ugly all the time but I mean I guess that's just little sister stuff. Didn't help when my better than me at everything brother came home from boot camp, and came up next to me and just said "hey bro, I'm sorry your ugly" like it was so sincere he couldn't even have been trying to be mean I was so angry I just told him to fuck off and haven't really talked to him since.

After high school, or really around 18 (I got my ged at 16 because I couldn't take it anymore), I sort of broke away from my friends because I got really depressed about my looks and just wanted to be alone. I couldn't even listen to music for a long time, I related everything to human experiences that I wasn't having. I had a job, sorta, for a friend of my dad's doing maintenance for a college for about 1 1/2 years, some of that time before I got all depressed and they let me not show up for weeks at a time during this period. One of my co-workers was this 30 year old guy who was always trying to be my best friend, said I reminded him of himself when he was young. He was really encouraging and kind of my first role model, everybody loved him. But eventually I broke away from him too, idk why really, at this point in my life I had a lot of trouble with relationships. I left that job and tried to kill myself, have a scar going up my wrist. After 2 months I got a job at a grocery store. then UPS. and then depression again...

Then about 5 months I started 2 jobs, one door to door sales, the other as an apartment maintenance guy on the weekends. I figured I may as well work 7 days a week since I don't hang out with anyone, and maybe I could build some people skills talking to all (cont)

How ugly can you possibly be then? I've seen plenty of genuinely ugly people and I still find it hard to fathom that someone is this ugly that people can't stop being assholes about it.
>>
>>18554101
those people. And I'm actually kind of good at it. It's boosted my confidence a bit, but I still had my dark thoughts. Anyway a little while ago this fat chick joined the sales team and she was hitting on me so I banged her 3 times before I got grossed out. not a very proud way to lose your virginity. but she told me I was cute, I didn't even ask, I'm not a bitch. and after the third night she was saying she loved me and asked if I ever see myself in a relationship with her. The whole situation got me thinking maybe I should value myself more.

And so lately I've been more confident, relaxed, happy, and women are being a lot nicer to me. The hot moms at the door want to stay and talk longer, I make eye contact and sometimes smiles that aren't uncomfortable with women everywhere. actually I was at the dmv and I asked this beautiful girl if my number had been called (i went out to smoke) and she said yeah and when I came back from getting a new number she was sitting right next to where I had been. I looked at her briefly on my way back but she looked at me more confidently so I looked away but I think she smiled. I wonder if she wanted me to talk to her. oh and this one occasion where a hot chick initiated a conversation with me in an elevator. This might sound normal to you but to me it's all really curious behavior.

So maybe I'm more attractive than I previously thought, or I read way too much into things. But I still have this loner mentality. I want people but I can't get attached to people. and everything I say is hella fake, like I just say the right things. I used to be pretty funny and clever, but it feels like that was a long time ago. I'm basically scared to talk to girls I think are good looking, and especially scared that I'm going to be judged for being a loser with no friends, even if I have opinions and shit and am pretty normal.

I will post pic if anybody cares.

Every time after I jack off,have sex, or don't go to church, I feel as if God punishes me either the next day or the week of.
Unusual events happen and this causes a cycle of me feeling guilty for these actions.
This Is probably bullshit but how do I move past my catholic guilt

Doesn't that null the whole point of grace and forgiveness if God was a vengeful god who punishes you whenever you sin?

I don't really like the Catholic theology because of that bases of "You must be perfect and CANNOT sin otherwise you will be punished and become unsaved again!"

Hello /x/

some might say what you're doing is dangerous, but only because you believe it is. When you have convinced yourself that releasing is and act of creativity, then use the power for something you want to achieve, rather than fearing the wrath of a demiurge

What are some actual signs of sociopathy?
There is someone I refuse to believe is one but people at times call a sociopath.
They are my boyfriend.
Main traits he has
>Stonefaced liar: He can just tell a simple or elaborate lie to get what he wants. This even includes pretending to be an entirely different person with name, adress, and backstory.
>Inconsistent idenity: While I think its normal to change how you act depending on where you are, he brings it to a whole new level where he is impossible to recognize if you meet him in a different setting.
>Socialize to win: He seems to mostly prefer only being with people who he can get something out of, if he cant then he will only be with them if he can leverage them to get to someone else
if anyone has any questions about them feel free to ask

1. Why is he with you?
2. Why are you with him?
>>
>>18554056
1. I think because of sexual attraction, we share sexual kinks, and he just likes spending time with me
2. The same as number one but i also like how he has dedication and never seems to give a shit, he just keeps the show going with minimal downtime.
