Hey /adv/,
So about two months ago, my ex and I got into a fight that resulted in us breaking up (her call). After a month of separation, she came back and said she still wanted to try with me, then a week after that, we broke up again and surely enough, since we kept contact I found out she was with another dude. A few days after finding that out, I decide to go no contact with her.

My problem is that I still entertain the hope that she'll come back and tell me that this was all some sort of misunderstanding and that everything will be alright. Now I know that this is unhealthy, hence why I'm coming here asking you folks what to do in order to accept that it's over.

Bonus round: I blocked her on every piece of social media to avoid seeing pictures of her with her new guy. I did well because my best friend accidentally spilled the beans about her having uploaded pictures of them together on FB. He then suggested that showing me said pictures could help me get over her for some reason. Is he fucked up or does he actually have a point?

Thanks in advance for reading and trying to help.

She's not coming back, look at the pictures if you need to see them to accept that. If you don't need them to do that, don't look at 'em. You'll find someone new.

>>18527052

A typical solution to your problem would be to do new things and meet new people. This would create new bonds and passions.

Alternatively, perhaps examine the relationship and understand why it ended and that if it ended on such terms it was not without good reason.

Perspective is important during these times as focusing on the past creates a narrow, self-centered and nostalgic view rather than a positive and progressive one.
>>
>>18527083
Thanks. I'm pretty sure all I need is some time to get my feelings back in order and I think that looking at the pictures would just set me back more than anything.

>>18527097
Right now I'm visiting family abroad for two more weeks so I can't really go out and meet new people, maybe when I come back? Also I am pretty well aware of why our relationship ended (she was pretty abusive and I dealt with her outbreaks pretty poorly at times. also monkey-branching)

Thanks for the advice you two.

Hi anons, today was a sad day. I applied to the Art University Wien and i got rejected. I live in Linz and they called me to go for a meeting, so I bought a ticket and drove there only to be told I was rejected by Herr.Proff Baumgartner. It seems my art is not too left enough too be accepted. I will never paint again but instead focus on politics. Fuck this planet. Fuck this world. Fuck Europe. Fuck you all. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. I will remove them all

For a moment I thought this post was about former Führer und Reichskanzler of Germany, Adolf Hitler, but he was rejected for other reasons.

My infatuation with an acquaintance ended with a failed romantic pursuit: turns out she had a boyfriend after all.

My feelings for her are stronger than those I've had for ladies that I've actually been in relationships with.

I'm 27 and that's the first time I've felt so strongly about someone. I fear it could be another 10 years before something like that comes around again, if at all.
It also feels like pursuing anyone else at the moment wouldn't be fair or respectful to either of us. It would be like settling for 2nd best.

What are some good ways to move on from this and get back into a healthier mindset?

>turns out she had a boyfriend after all.

Boyfriends aren't husbands. All women keep a line of backup men for when their primary relationships fail. Be that backup.
>>
>>18527479
That's true. The situation has forced me to have a good look at myself anyway.
I find myself imagining a future where she's single again and I want to be the best version of myself to take advantage of that.

However, there's every chance that may never happen. She's 37 and been married once before so it's not like we're talking about fleeting high school flings here but I really wouldn't know. I got the impression she was single so maybe she just picked that as an excuse to try to let me down gently.

It's frustrating being so motivated and having no way to act upon it. I just want to be able to get on without thinking about her all the time and get to a point I could look elsewhere without it feeling like second prize.

Boyfriend and I have an age gap of 10 years. I'm currently 19 years old and he's 29 years old. Is this weird? We've been together for 3 years but known each other for 6 years and I'm not sure how others would react.

To me, yes, absolutely weird. It's too much at your ages and the fact that he got to know you as a thirteen year old girl makes it grosser still.

Boyfriend of 2 years just got a new job that pays well about 4 months ago. But he won't spend any of the money he's earning outside of bills. He always says he has to save for various things like college loans etc. We only go out about once a month and only to something small like dinner or a movie. Looking at our accounts we could afford a nice trip or small vacation but he refuses to indulge me even though I make sure he comes home to a lovely and clean house with home cooked meals every night. How do I tell him that I think he should treat us a little more often? I'm not asking for him to buy me nice things 24/7. I just mean maybe a nice weekend trip to the beach or to a cabin to reward ourselves.

>>18526998
make sure he knows that you don't want to spend money pointlessly, but feel like a small vacation for a weekend is in order.
apart from that, I think he's doing a good job, going out is overrated but doing it once every month is often enough if you don't have a cash overflow

Does anyone have any experience with this? My girlfriends getting more and more into it. At first i thought it was great because she showed some good change (stopped smoking, quit drugs at the same time as me and got me to go to NA which has helped) but now she's just getting more and more involved and it sounds so full of shit. I read the literature and listen to the group calls and nothing sounds very profound. I'd do it if it wasn't obscenely expensive ($625 for the first weekend). I really like her but this is making me question the relationship. Wat do /adv/?

>>18526931
I should also mention her parents have been involved with it for a long time which is surprisimg because they dont have much money and are divorced (moms lesbian with bpd amd unenployed, dads a teacher and I honestly can't say he's the smartest guy or a great parent although the parents are best friends still). She sounds so brainwashed I cant stand it. She thinks the business has "integrity" and I try to tell her it's another corporation that wants your money with massive revenue. At this point I'm kind of disgusted by the whole thing and don't see her deepening involvement helping her "create new possibilities" aside from losing $ and time and pushing her friends to do it.
>>
More context to bump. Im 18 and about to start college for Chem E and finally sober from 3 or 4 years of physical opiate and benzo addiction and a nasty amph/coke habit. I feel like I'm the type of vulnerable person they'd prey on cause I'm trying to find a new way of life. She also seems susceptible i think because of bpd and dropping out of highschool and stuff so she doesnt have a whole lot going on just like me. She's 17 so her parents pay for it and they've been involved foe years but that almost makes me trust it less cause i don't really respect her parents very much. I wish i could get her out of this but she's so fucking into it and I feel like itd be selfish when sue gets something out of it. I just hate to see her invest so much time and energy into it.

Recently started drinking. Last few parties I've been at I've gotten wasted. Each time, this really hot chick has sat next to me while I drunkenly rant and speak out of my ass about anything from politics to literature. She's kind of timid and mostly listens. Does it mean anything or just her being amused by how wasted I am

How to transition to making out with a girl at a party when you know she is attracted to you?
I'm not Chad level attractive so things don't just work on their own but I'm attractive enough that girls have given me clear signals. How to not be beta and transition to making out? The weird thing is, on a date it's obvious to me what to do but at a party with many people around I'm just not sure what's appropriate or right

While on a date, which are the cues that make it obvious what to do? and how do you go about the transition?
>>
>>18526763
Well I usually break the touch barrier right away and try to slowly up what I'm doing when it comes to that. Seeing how she responds and if she is okay with it. Then I pay attention to the mood. Do I make her laugh a lot? Is she happy? Then she gives me signals like touching my arm when she laughs, strong eye contact, touching her neck or hair, stuff like that. If all is right I will go in for the kiss. Either at the end or at the middle of the date.

The thing is, on a date you have one on one time for hours. Last time I was at a party one girl started talking to me and she gave me so many signals that she is into me. But we only talk for like a few minutes then we are occupied with other people, then we talk for a few minutes again and we are occupied with other people again. Know what I mean?
>>
small talk
be fairly direct and ask to move to somewhere else in/around the house.
there is not much into it if she is attracted to you.

Change your mindset.
Getting a gf is the least of your troubles; you really need to do something about how you see and understand yourself.
My advice is to sit down with a paper and pen and be brutally honest about yourself, but without falling into the trap of self-hatred or self-pity. Try to be as objective as you can be and try to go as deep as you can. Once you admit what your real problems are, you can go about solving them. Once you feel comfortable with yourself you will find a gf won't be nearly as hard to get as now.
Fix yourself up man, you can fucking do this.

My boyfriend's dad died suddenly, 7 months ago. My boyfriend was with him when he died. They were extremely close and very much alike.

My boyfriend never said a word about it and never showed any emotion, not even at the funeral. He keeps having terrible nightmares and cannot sleep almost at all.
He never stops or relax - we are constantly doing things together, and if I am busy he's exercising or working on his hobbies.
He never went to visit his grave.
He has been acting normal with me and his friends, and even around his family.

I'm really worried about him but I don't know how to help him. I tried to bring the subject up up, but he avoids it.
What should I do to help him?

tell him he isnt more of a man hiding his emotions and that faking it isnt a good strategy dealing with losses since you can clearly see hes having problems

its actually a very bad sign for long term since someone who wishes to run away from his problems by distracting himself are more prone to alcoholism, cheating, drugs etc etc
>>
>>18526756
I don't know if being aggressive would help. I'm scared it'll push him further away.

We've been together for 5 years and he has been nothing but loving and compassionate.
He's hurting a lot. I just wish I knew how to get him to share his burdens with me.
>>
That's how some people deal with loss in their lives. Some openly grieve, some hide it as a coping mechanism. Be there for him if he ever needs it, and you've done a good job trying to openly be there for him, but this seems like one of those things where he has to deal with it on his own and if he needs you in this regard he'll tell you.

Hi,

I'm happy with my face but I'm very insecure about my chin. My jaw is average, and my chin is kinda big, but its shape goes backward. It doesn't have the bump that catch the light and give a balanced profile.
So I'm seriously thinking about having a surgery to correct that.

The thing is my family is strongly against superficial values, and I'm afraid I'll appear shallow to their eyes.

I'm 23. I can't post an entire pic cause I don't want to be recognized I'd easily go from 4/10 to 6/10 with a nice chin. I don't want to be handsome, just be on an even ground with other guys.
Pic related is my chin.

What do you think ?

Are you willing? Your jawline is undefined, just like your chin. You'll need to fix your entire lower jaw to correct your chin, as well as your jawline.

If I was in your position, I wouldn't.

>>18526794
My jaw looks undefined because of the plain light but it's pretty average otherwise.
Why wouldn't you ?

>>18526744

Im against corrective surgeries unless you have a visisble cosmetic problem like polyps, extra lobes.

You look fine my man, if you think you'll chin will win you chicks, boy, I've seen fat guys pull 9's out of the club with ease. Well, they had money and a nice car, but it says a lot of the priorities of some women.

I posted in the last thread about my roommate.

He wrote a letter to me shortly after. He took blame for a lot of our issues and how badly it ended between us. He wished me a good life.

I want to write a letter to him about how much I love him and I want to be friends with him again. I feel like a chunk of my heart is gone, like a part of my soul is missing. I feel relieved, in a sense, because I don't feel guilty anymore. But I miss him.
