For me personally, if I saw a video that was say 7 minutes long from that channel, I would think about how that's a bit weird in my head, but wouldn't comment anything. This might even make me notice the video more and make me more likely to click on it.

I've seen this kind of thing on YouTube before and that is usually what happens for me.

Just roll with it and make the time discrepancy a running joke.

There's already a channel that does this. Several, in fact. What's your unique angle?

Pull the ones on the right all the way down, then slowly lower then. Look up to where the strings go into the blinds, you should see a metal bit. Play with that if it isn't working

I wish my problems in life were as simple as this

>>18546757
I can't fit my fingers into the metal bit and pulling them didnt work.
I tried pulling all four, and then three at a time, and then in pairs in every combination I could think of, once straight down, once to the left, and once to the right. Nothing works

i have the same problem as you...gf dosn't want to have sex at all...ive gone almost 2 years without sex.

>>18546728
Well, what's her reasoning there?
I recall being in a relationship with someone I never wanted to have sex with.

>>18546711
Learn some self control.
That's it.

I mean you literally have only one option

You already fucked this by telling him you're into him. If you want to figure things out you have two options:

>tell him the COMPLETE truth, including your relationship with the online dude and how you're confused with everything, and hopes (he probably will) he understand and figure out things for himself as well

or

>realize that what you feel for your guy friend might actually be love and what you feel for the other guy might probably be just a temporary feeling

I mean the second option is just what I'm thinking here. It really looks like you care about your guy friend way more a friendly thot would, so maybe that's love. And we all know love is quite rare to find.


Anyways, something like that happened to me a few months ago and despite me getting the "bad ending", I moved on and still talk to the girl I liked. So I kinda get how the guy might feel whenever whatever happens

>>18546704
I don't think I love him. Not like that. He may be physically attractive to me, but his behavior is a big turn off. I'm a really submissive sort of person, but he told me once that the kind of girl he's into is one that takes charge. He's also less intelligent than me, and I usually just laugh at his jokes to be polite. It gets a little tiring.

But my previously mentioned bestie left town and ghosted me for a year, and I have seldom few friends. I also have known this guy for a very long time, we actually would have met in elementary school. I'm a friend of his older sister and their whole family, so I don't really want to tread on his feelings too much.

I thought about telling him everything, but it's a difficult thing to really talk about. My relationship with this guy online has been largely sexual in nature, and I don't really want to lose respect over it. I actually tried to tell him, but I couldn't get things out.

>>18546692
What's that?

And they say it's women who all hate each other and shit on each other.

>>18546652

sounds like a weird petty situation on the surface, but I've been there so I'm going to assume there is a pattern here.

and from my expreience you can't necessarilly stop it before it happens. People look at you this way for a reason, and often its just how you look. people don't treat me like I'm a bad person, but because im short and look like a cute 16 year old boy, I get a lot of shit. people don't see me as a real man and they aren't afraid to flaunt that.

as a result I tend to make sure I have some sort of 'power' in a relationship. in your case you had all the power, but you chose not to flex it because it was your friends party. If he is a good friend, and he should be considering what you did for him, he should be understanding when you put your foot down about someone being a tool and having them leave.

If someone disrespects me I call them out on it. Its as simple as saying 'that was a disrespectful thing to say, don't do it again'. if they argue the point, I throw in the thread 'You are wrong, it was disrespectful, continue to argue the point or disrespect me again, and you will have to leave.'

then if they don't stop, execute your will by any means necessary. It will alienate people, even people you thought were friends or DID respect you. you have to remember that you are being judged by 'nice guy standards'.

its a lot like on TV. you ever see a show like say, 'how i met your mother'? the main character is a normal guy, so we judge him by nice guy standards. fans began to hate him for any tiny bad thing he did. the other character 'barney' was practically a villain. he admitted to doing things like SELLING WOMEN and implied rape and the like. but we treated him with 'bad guy standards'. so anytime he did something bad thats just 'him being him'. if he did something nice, we praised it.

you're the first guy. you do something nice, its expected. if you do something remotely not nice, you're shit on.

unfortunately there is no middle ground where you can assert your authority and then keep all your friends. if you are lucky that will naturally happen, but there is no 'promise' of that if you will. some people will leave. and along the way you might be unreasonable, not going to lie. sometimes asserting your authority is extreme and unnecessary at the time, but it helps ensure that you are not taken advatnage of again and that can be very important to your future and happiness.

so don't be afraid to flex your power. and I cannot stress this next part enough

ALWAYS. FIND. LEVERAGE.

>>18546639

we don't know. there is no way for us to know. even if you meet requirements for getting in it doesn't mean they'll accept unfortunately.

paleontology is pretty fucking great though, I like to think in a parallel reality i went through wtih that. dinosaurs were a passion of mine growing up. I still get into them wtih documentaries and shit. Really evolution adn extinct animals in general interest me. I love seeing the evolution chart for a whale for instance, one of my favorite things to show people.

I once scared a guy away at a bar, he was fat and ugly and super into me, so i thought I could at least nerd out, but i started showing him some meso american carvings that seemed to show a stegosauruses and he got up and left me there.

one of my clients digs up fossils for fun, he owns a couple dozen acres on the most dense fossil bed in america nad just goes out and digs em up for fun. he donated a few to my office as decoration. no skulls or anything cool like that, just bits and pieces but he was able to show me which parts were on which dinosaur, even parts of ribcage on a velociraptor.

He even let me read his book on alternate extinction possibility. He thinks the dying out was caused by radiation half life or some shit.

> the evolution chart for a whale for instance, one of my favorite things to show people.

show me

>>18546639
I wanna hug you so fucking much, I'm going back to school in fall so I can get my PhD in paleontology XD. maybe we'll actually meet one day.

>>18546632

ask your doctor and google for side effects but yeah it sounds like the standard anti-depressant side effect, tends to make you tired and weak.

it will take sometime before it fixes your brain chemistry btw, if ever.

>>18546632
Usually takes some trial.and error and yeah they can be fucky for the first bit.

My girlfriend went on anti depressants. They made her worse for like 2 weeks, then much, much better.

Don't give up OP... it may take more than a month for our bodies to get used to antidepressants

>>18546623
Nigga what?

>>18546623

my brain stem was out of place for a month, was functionally retarded it was awful. when it finally snappedb ack i had severe memory and focus issues. getting out of it and I can even survive with normal amounts of sleep now, but yeah I don't feel nearly as 'sharp' as i used to be.

whats interesting is sometimes information can be brought up though. If someone says something that triggers it I can find weird old things buried in my brain,

>>18546640
That's ass. Just don't sudoku lul

>>18546602
No, but again, I'm not a nigger

>>18547795

oh word

You make 40x the rent? They'd have to be the most retarded agent in the world to refuse you, sure you don't mean 4x the rent?

Stop smoking weed like a fucking faggot

embrace it

find a passion and pursue. i used to be a wasteoid like you, and still am in a lot of ways (have been smoking weed everyday since i was 15) but i found a passion and am getting paid well for it (about to turn 25)

/tg/

Get yourself a 5e Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, and Monster Manual and 3-4 friends and play until you figure it out

/tg/ is a good start, if you want rules questions then as much as it pains me to say it, the reddit dnd page has a weekly questions thread where you'll get answers from. Roll20 is a decent place to play online but apparently there's a lot of autists on it but i've had a good experience with it so far but try find a group of friends or colleagues to play in person if you can.

Lastly play more then one game a week/fortnight if you like playing you will need more to satisfy.

I can't afford seeing psychologists, psychiatrists or other doctors. Even if I could I'm not interested in WASTING my time with them again, they have proven over and over and over again that they are absolutely incapable of the profession in this country. Europe is garbage, don't believe what anyone else says.

I'm stubborn and I don't trust anybody, and I probably never can again. I'm still asking for any, ANY ideas on what I could do, or preferrably your own experience with seemingly bottomless anger.

If you live near the woods grab a baseaball bat and go smash a stump. If you live in a city then find a gym or something and pay them to use their punching bag. Either way vent all your rage at this inanimate object until you are too tired to hit it anymore.

After you do this start meditating. Lots of guided meditation videos on youtube. I suggest Yongey Rinpoche.

>>18546519
smoke weed nigga

no replies? I don't get it.

>>18546494
Markiplier here and welcome to... OP is a faggot. I've been wanting to play this game for some time but I've not wanted to get horrible cancer from this game and turn to getting railed by black men named Bubba. But, I'm doing it for you guys. Here we go!

>>18546494

lots of people do. some for better reasons than yours, some for worse. ultimately it doesn't matter. I am not of the mindset that we owe our creators anything. they made us, a lot of them by accident, and in some cases they did the best they could. but in many cases even when it was the best they could muster, it doesn't mean we have to stick around. do whats right by you.

I recently made the decision to leave my family. My brother molested me at a young age, my father insisted we werent allowed to talk of it ever again, and my mother just went along with it. There is nothing of value for me if I stick around. my biggest worry was financial security. I'veb een on my own for 7 years and manage a sucessful business and always get paid, but theres always that nagging fear that if something went wrong id be alone.

But i wont be. my boss loves and adores me and always has my back, I got great friends who would not hesitate to let me stay with them if something went wrong and my extended family who i DO enjoy as well. i honestly feel MORE secure now than i did when i was under my parents thumb.

if you need to GO, go. try not to burn any bridges, but if they're the ones holding the match not much else you can do. don't let them hold you hostage.

>no replies
>i dont get it

slow board on a saturday night where most people have plans, with a very simple problem of
>i dont feel like i belong
>because they mimic me

sounds shallow / petty and no one wnats to write a big wall of text like i just did over something so small.

>>18546482
I think so.

Anyway you can report it?

>>18546482
you don't know fucking anything about this guy. follow him if you need to see if he feeds and waters the dogs at home but calling this animal neglect is overreacting.

>>18546508
Would locking your animal in a cage that it can just stand up in for 7 1/2 hours without food or water not be classed as neglect?

>>18546450
Have you gotten checked? Are you clean?

She got herpes and HPV, those will stay with her for life. That's consequence enough and she'll regret her decisions later in life

>literally a cuck
that's not cool

no Im clean, this happened after. I found out from her dad, who told me to get tested
