I have ~800 screenshots save on my phone from the past 2 years, mostly from 4chan, of useful and interesting stuff I like. Everything from how to get over an ex, workout routines to meal recipies.
I've been procrastinating cleaning this stuff up and saving the best for a while now. The purpose was to save these screenshots on my dropbox, and implement some of this stuff into my life.
Should I:
a) fuck it and delete it all because its autistic
b) go one by one and save the best ones
Also, how exacly would you arrange them once I clean them up - by topic? date?

I spent seven years in a relationship with somebody, was engaged to be married, owned a house, the whole shebang. I decided I didn't want to be in the relationship and we split up. We were never a good match and it was ridiculously obvious even from the very beginning. I just got carried away.
I feel intense guilt, even 18 months later. In all honesty, I didn't handle things very well and really hurt them. We're both in our early thirties, so the fact we spent seven years together means that we're both having to start again at a rather late age.
I don't know whether they've moved on as we don't have any contact other than official business. The last I heard, they had a new partner but that was a while ago and I don't know if it's still going on.
Will the guilt of taking up so much of this persons time ever leave me? I feel like it's severely limiting my ability to be happy.

Dunno. I've always been able to call it pretty quickly, and didn't like to waste time. I've been with my wife for 6 years. Every other relationship I've had never progressed past a handful of dates.
Dunno why you pulled what you pulled. I mean, it's not like you were miserable for those 7 years. You obviously didn't loathe one another. I imagine trust issues would have cropped up long before then if they were there.
You essentially wasted 10 percent of your life with that person. Why waste so much?
>>
>>18523099
To put it simply, we met in our early twenties and at the time, I felt immense pressure to meet somebody and settle down. This person was very different to anybody I had dated before and I got caught up in the lifestyle and experiences.
Eventually, they proposed buying a house which we did. After this, they proposed and then I remember rushing the wedding because I was terrified I would change my mind. It was just the easier option and we didn't have any considerable issues, as you said, so I just stayed in it.
It's ridiculous looking back on it all, and probably part of the reason why I'm so ashamed. I knew it wasn't a good relationship and I knew we weren't well matched. There were several points where I should have recognised this and acted on it, but I didn't.
Although there were no issues so to speak, the last few years of our relationship were terrible. No sex, no enjoyment, just disagreements.

>>18523114
Whelp, I hope you can find peace. Unfortunately for you, I'm not qualified to give it. That said, if neither party was happy, I imagine the other feels relief.

I need some advice, I'm looking to become a pilot.
To preface, I'm 24 years old with no post secondary education. I've been a working actor for 5 years, getting walk-on roles here and there and padding my income with background work. It's a living, but if I have to spend another 10 years doing this and hoping for my big break I'm going to shoot myself.
So I figure I take my money and stop buying anime figures, magic cards, antique watches, and whatever other garbage I spend money on, and put it into an education in aviation. Most places rent their aircraft for $200 an hour, instructors are another $75 an hour, and if you want a commercial license you need 200 hours minimum, more like 500 hours to actually work. Helicopters, which I am more interested in, are more like 300 an hour without the instructor.
Flight schools bundle all this plus your exam fees and whatnot for something like 60 grand. My hope is to skip this process, do "ground school" by studying on my own, take out a loan and buy a plane.
To my peers, this sounds insane. I would be taking out something like 30k to buy a small plane, and theoretically get my 200 hours in 5 weeks. Insurance and hangar cost would be minimal assuming I only keep it for a month or two, I just have to worry about operation costs, should be doable since I can keep my regular job going during this time. At the end of the process, I sell the plane and have basically cut 40-50k off what most people are paying for their license.
At 200 hours, you have to beg for what is essentially intern work until you get 500 hours total. From there you get shitty backwoods jobs until you get 1500 hours like 5 years from now and can start working for a reasonable wage. I figure if I do keep the plane, I could try to use it to fly people around while gaining hours, but.. the loan wouldn't be paid off fast enough, and I wouldn't make enough to pay off maintenance and operation costs. If the plan works, it feels like a steal. Am I delusional?

I don't know anything about flying, but it sounds unsure to me. But also like possibly a good idea. I remade your question here:

"It's easy, son. Just walk in there, speak with the flying instructor, give him a firm handshake, and ask him to let you start flying. All there is to it."
>>
To be an airline pilot, you basically need to have military experience. Vets get priority hiring.
To get a commercial pilot's license, though, costs closer to $20 grand than $60. See https://www.afa.edu/resources/pilot-training-cost/ for costs for various types of licenses.

> fell for an amazing woman
> infatuation grows over months the more I get to know her
> finally decide to ask her out
> she has a partner already
I've lost the plot now. It'll be years before I meet someone as appealing to me, if I'm lucky. And I just have all sorts of crazy ideas whirling through my head like bumping into her accidentally on purpose a year from now on the off chance she's dumped the guy and other equally pathetic stuff.
It's been a week and I've already made an online dating account and been on two separate dates with cute, intelligent young ladies but I felt absolutely nothing.
I've never been one for dating and relationships but always thought it wouls be fun to give it a try for a while but now it just feels inconsequential.
What more can I do to rid myself of the torment?

cut contact with her.
i used to be crazy about this one dude and keeping him around just killed me. I started to forget why I liked him so much as time went on because I was no longer reminded of why I liked him. The human mind adapts so use that to your advantage.
Delete pics of her, anything she gave you, any songs that remind you of her. and unfollow her everywhere.

Thank you for your input, which is valid, but I did all of this right away. Our relationship was in the real world and neither of us use much social media anyway and I have no reason to frequent where she will be anymore so there really isn't a trace other than what's in my mind.
Still, if I'm trying to read or otherwise keep myself distracted I'll end up breaking my focus and en up thinking about her before too long anyway.

I wanna get a job in radiology and nuclear medicine but I don't really know anything about it. I have looked up several positions like being a technologist and stuff but all the experience I have had working tells me to never trust the job description that people give about the job. I also hear that the job market is really shit and I don't want to end up in that jobless post-college crisis that a lot of people suffer from. I'm just hoping that people with experience can give me some real information about the job like what's it really like working those kind of jobs, what are some good positions that are available, which jobs are better and why?

Find a position as a tech assistant. That's what I did before I got my EMT and moved to the ER as a ED Tech. Tech assistants generally just grab patients and put them on the table and what not. X-ray techs are what you want to go to school for then you can cross train into catscan/specials. Or do Nuclear Medicine technician. But I don't know anything about Nuc Med.
>>
>>18522952
Thanks for the help, how much does being a tech assistant pay? Secondly, how was it working in ER, I get easily squeamish at that kind of shit so I don't know if I'll be able to stomach that work for long. Also I did look into being a nuclear medicine technician and it seemed decent, paid a decent amount as well. Lastly, what do you mean by cross train?
>>
>>18522961
I was making about 13 bucks PRN as a assistant. Actual techs make about 20-30 dollars an hour starting here in Florida. ER work is fun. I work in a trauma center so I see a lot of awesome/sick things. Tons of good experience. But it's a downtown trauma center so I also see druggies, alcoholics, and scum of the earth which angers me.

This coming spring semester, I have the opportunity to study abroad in Japan. I already applied with my university and they gave me the go-ahead, but I don't know if I should commit and apply with the exchange university. I haven't been going to university that long (junior only by credits), and I really like the city I live in currently. My parents have also decided to pay for my tuition and I don't want to overburden them with even more things to pay for.
Has anyone else here ever studied abroad? Would it be a worthwhile thing to pursue?

No stay in your home town there's no real benefit in studying abroad

ofc its dope to study abroad
Its not much about the study than its about being abroad though, studying is just making up an excuse
Done it 4 semesters in 3 years, going for my 5th in one month and can't imagine staying in my country for studying anymore.

It's worthwhile if you're looking to master a new language and/or work in the country you're studying in.

Bear with me, I haven't posted on 4chan for what must be 7 or 8 years now.
I'm 31 and I've been married to my wife for 3 years and we have an 8 month old daughter. We own a nice home in a nice suburb. I have a good job that pays nicely. I'm the breadwinner and she is the homemaker. We discussed this before getting married and we were both okay with it.
One of the men who works on the corporate rung above me is planning on retiring at the end of the year and I've been working my ass off so I can get his position. My days consists of waking up at 4:30 am, going to the gym at 5, coming home and showering at 6 am, then leaving for work at 7 where I work until 6 or 7 at night then come home. 5 days a week, sometimes weekends too. I'm doing this so I can provide more for my family, so we can live comfortably. It's been like this since February.
As of late, I've noticed my wife becoming quite distant. She spends a lot of time with her sister and I can see she's upset about how much time I spend working. Every time I try and broach the topic she becomes dismissive and insists she's fine. I've tried asking her sister what's wrong but she didn't say anything either.
What can I do to make it up to her? I'm not a very romantic person, and I can't spirit her away for a vacation somewhere since we still have a breastfed baby.

You can still spirit her away for an evening, and make it all about her. You could also take a vacation WITH the baby, like to a national park or something (if she's into that sort of thing).
There's also little shit you can do while at home. Offer her a massage, and ask her about her day while doing it. Help her cook dinner, and talk while doing so. If work is killing your relationship, then start making choices. It's ok to insist that you're only going to work 40 hours, unless you signed a contract stating otherwise. If so, start looking for more work, and tell your wife this, so that you can spend more time with her.
>>
>>18522921
It's a flat rate per annum, and it's supposed to be 9 to 5. I'm only putting so many extra hours because I want the promotion coming up, it's close to double what I'm currently making. I don't want to look for another job, even if I don't get the promotion this one is still very nice.
She finishes the dinner usually around the time I get home, but I'll start offering her massages or foot rubs before we go to bed. Maybe start planning a weekend at the beach or something too. Thanks.
Do you know how I can get her to open up more about what's bothering her?
>>
>>18522934
Which is more important: the promotion or your marriage? If you had to pick one, which would you pick?
>Do you know how I can get her to open up more about what's bothering her?
Yeah. By being there and letting her know that you and the kid are your biggest priorities. I get that you want the promotion to provide for her better, but the way shit is going, its destroying your marriage.

Can I be saved at this point?
>29 years old
>No job, no education and live with mother
>Fucked up teeth due to years of bad hygiene
>Severe alcoholism, I can't feel normal unless I'm drinking
>Panic attacks and bad anxiety when I'm sober, I can't function. I can't look people in the eyes, I can't walk and I feel a laundry list of weird bodily symptoms when sober (none of this shit happens when I have a buzz)
>Used to go to the ER due to the shit I just posted above which gave me horrible credit
I just feel like, I can't come back from this. I don't see myself making a comeback or living a normal life. I've fucked up so bad by years of neglecting myself, not getting an education, quitting every shitty job I've ever had and not getting help when all of this anxiety/hypochondria behavior started in 2011.
I feel like there's no hope for me and some days I want to just end it but I'm too scared to do it. I've been drunk some nights holding a knife to my throat begging myself to end it, begging myself to release myself from this prison that I feel like I'm in. If I try to sober up, my body becomes this laundry list of symptoms that I can't control even though mentally, I am not an anxious person. Numerous blood tests, EKGs and hospital visits showed that I am fine but I can't shake it off.
I don't have the money to visit some expensive ass therapist and rehab costs a fucking truckload of money. I don't know what to do and I don't know if there's anything I even can do at this point.

I bet you haven't even priced a single shrink in your area.

You can be saved, but you may need to consider some kind of really rapid change in your lifestyle and physical location. and then it sounds like your going to need a serious gameplan to get a hold of your alcoholism. You may even need some other drugs to come off the alcohol. Sorry i cant be more specific in my advice,
I'm actually not that much different then you, and have a path I am following that I think will eventually take me where I want to be so that gives me hope.
sometimes that hope comes and goes as things become harder or easier.
Try this: really spent x number of hours in nature walking per week, and use that time to picture a realistic near term vision of what you would like your life to look like, and then write down some notes about that in your phone or something.
Then spend some time figuring out some practical steps you can take to get there.
Or you could go find Jesus and start going to church or something.
>>
You shouldn't try to quit alcohol cold turkey. That could be causing your physical symptoms. Check into a rehab facility or maybe try checking into a hospital. They will give you drugs (barbiturates I think) that will ease the withdraw process.

I have strong feelings for this girl, we've been close for years but only friends, i broke off contact with her for awhile to move on. Ive had a few relationships and flings but never felt anything like i did with her.
A little backstory, she had told me early in our "relationship" that she wouldve dated me if she didn't already have a bf. (Shes a year younger than me) after they broke up we got really close but she said she wasn't interested then. We got so close though we would say "i love you" but not actually mean it, beta af ik. Around then i broke off contact.
I recently started talking to her again, we've flirted a little bit and most days shes very chatty and friendly, some days though she'll ignore me all day. I had brought her one of her favorite drinks a few days ago and when i did we held each other for a bit before i bitched out of there. As i left though she said i love you and i said it back almost involuntarily. Its bedn driving me mad ever since cause i want to be with her but i dont wanna fuck it up and ruin everything. What do i do?

I thought there was something wrong with me my whole life and even had physical proof for it.
Fat, rude, entitled, divisive, a bum, a failure, a pervert, unlikeable, etc.
But it turned out I had placed too much trust into shitty people who were trying to belittle me.

I'm actually dominant in sex and my gf love it but she's really aroused by the thought of dominating me too
I find it quite arousing to be honest and it could be interesting but I'm pretty sure it will ruin everything if we often do it. you will say "ok you just have to do it sometimes" but if I start giving those new experiences she will never want to stop and will maybe see other mans while never experiencing prevent from this addiction to domination
So if we do it she will begin to see me like a manlet in the daily basis too, she will become more confident (she's very beautiful objectively and don't know how attractive she's because she has a big problem of self confidence) and it could goes to a fantasy of me being cucked (that's what fear me the most)
so what do you think ? she seems to be really into this but she's the one I want for the rest of my life so I don't want to ruin those 2 years building our relationship
please don't tell me things like "she has been with you for 2 years so it will ruin nothing", we know how even 3-5-10-20 years can fade away within few days or weeks and how girls minds can change quickly

As long as both of you are comfortable and consenting, I don't see why trying new things would ruin anything. If you're that concerned, you can tell her that if you say a safe word, everybody stops. So long as she's willing to respect that, I don't see the problem.
I tried it with my wife once, and wound up using the safe word after an hour and a half, just because she was doing really stupid shit, and never moving onto anything really sexual. If I wanted to be tickle tortured for an hour and a half, I would have just gone and played with little kids, not handcuffed myself naked to a bed.

My boyfriend (20M) of 3+ years "can't stop" checking out girls in front of me(20F).
I am a very pretty girl, 9/10, I try my very best to be the best gf and friend to him & still he can't stop. It makes me so sad that he can do that when I'm right beside him.
He tells me it's automatic and he doesn't even think but I don't do that, if I was ever going to check someone out (so so rare) I'd at least have the respect for him - to do it subtly and when he is not directly by my side.
He's telling me he's trying but I'm so tired of feeling so shit about it.
What do I do?

Yeah you're not going to like it but, it really is automatic. I do it all the fuckin time with my girl. She gets bothered herself, like how your acting right now. As males, we can't help it because it's fuckin programmed into our brain to want to fuck. It feels animalistic and we try to stop it sometimes. My girl isn't any different. I'm not the best looking guy body wise, but she checks out dudes with chizzeld abs and shit. It doesn't really bother me, cause I'm pretty sure her biology is wired the same as mine. You are literally worrying about something that is out of our control.
>>
>>18522733
Start pointing girls out to him.
Rethink the problem.
He loves you but he looks, so what.
If you rethink that he looks but still loves and wants you and doesn't chase then it's something you can control.
All men look, it's hardwiring in our evolution and genes, it's something that if he could avoid to stop getting shit dumped on him from you he would.
>>
>>18522733
Stop being a whiny insecure baby and realize that if he was gonna do anything other than check these girls outt, he wouldn't be dating you.
This is relatively normal behavior, especially for young men, get used to it or find a nice fedora wearing beta cuck to date.
