I want to become a tradesmen but after doing lots of research and reading up on other people's experiences in other places I'm hit with a lot of anxiety and nervousness. Will I be able to live comfortably doing trade work? What trade should I work in? Is work stable, will I get laid off constantly, and what do I do if I get laid off? Are unions worth it and should I join a union? Am I committed to one trade or can I practice and study multiple trades? I apologize for the large amount of question but I just don't know anything about trades.

Let me put it this way: you'll have a good, stable and ever-increasing income until your body can't handle working anymore

Well I'm okay with that, it's just I don't know the right way of going about it. Being an electrician seems nice but then there are all of these other trades that also sound interesting and it just becomes overwhelming.

After an enormous amount of existential devenires, I decided to try something new, looking for a relationship with a girl chosen from the pile of the catalog of my people next. The point is that I have met a despicable and opaque being, who deceives himself with self excuses, mainly because he has human dramas and shit, which is a hoax like so many others that he himself believes. Another caker drowned in his fucking ego.
The problem is that it can hurt people close to me.

A good friend of mine told me she had/has (she mentioned residue? Not sure I quite understood that) a major problem in life that caused her a lot of distress, but she could not bring herself to tell me what it was.
I need help to figure out what that problem was, based on the clues I got.
1. It's something she was too embarrassed to tell her parents, although she eventually (after it was over) told her mom, but claims she could never tell her dad.
2. It was something her boyfriend supported her through.
3. It was psychological, but it can and did have physical consequences.
4. It's not sexual, depression, or drug/alcohol/any similar addiction, it also ain't self harm (cutting/suicide, etc.).
5. It has a specific name, and it is something I might not have heard of (her boyfriend didn't), or I might have but I wouldn't think of it as anything serious if I didn't know it well enough. It's also something you ought to visit a psychiatrist for, although she didn't.
6. She's outgoing, quite handsome, and likes to bullshit about being in depression (she acknowledges she's not), stuff like say her life is terrible despite everything going for her, first world problem kind of shit. She also frets a lot about her academic career.
I'm not asking you to persuade me to give up.
She said she wouldn't lie and say I got it wrong if I guessed right, so just throw in a list of things you think it might be, even if you think it's a far shot.

she needs to woman up and go to a fucking doctor if it's bothering her.
you need to butt out of her life if she doesn't really want to tell you. if she's making you guess, she's just being an attention whore.

If she's an attention whore, just tell her you don't care (less harsh though) or don't want to know anymore. she'll probably tell you or give you more hints, to keep you hooked and "caring" (ie giving her attention about it.
Tbh if she had a problem she didn't want people to know about she wouldn't have even mentioned that there is one to begin with

Hey guys...I know this is a tall order, but how do you learn to bloom where you're planted? Or at least be at peace? Sometimes I feel trapped where I end up--like the college I'm at or the places I often am forced to go, that rebellious desire to be somewhere else, somewhere new. Better? I don't adapt. Everything shifts to my mood. It's like I lack integrity or something because my subconscious spills and paints my surroundings and poisons any roots I've might have put down.
>almost consistently gloomy--months without laughing, hurricanes of existential anxiety. Have been like this since late high school
This existential shit comes around and makes me question where I am (at a college that really doesn't seem like a good fit for me, but covers almost my entire tuition), what I've done, and where I'm going. It's uncomfortable and stressful living such a life. I don't know what I should do--I should be working towards my future and stop trembling in my stead.q

Sounds like you have some heavy depression.
It's normal to feel unhappy doing something you don't want to do. If your schooling doesn't feel right for you it makes sense you don't want to go there. Getting comfy where you've been planted can make you wilt. Maybe you need to move somewhere you can really bloom.
It sounds like you're in a life leading to a place you don't want to be. What do you want to do? Who do you want to be?

I should probably be asking /sci/ but I need a job. Preferably a QC or lab tech position. I waited too long to apply for grad schools and a need to work in the meantime.
I've applied to over 50 places in SoCal. Got 1 interview that never amounted to anything.
If you guys know of any place that's hiring it'd be cool if you shared it with me.

>Getting back with an ex
Yes/No? Does it ever work out well? Any personal experiences?
My ex gf, the only girl I've ever truly cared about has come back into my life recently and it's got me feeling weird. We've fucked a few times in the last few weeks and have been spending a lot of time together. She says she wants to make this work but I've got mixed feelings on the matter. We met 5 years ago when we were 18 and 19 respectively and we (mostly her but I'm not innocent) both did a lot of dumb shitty things to each other. I'm a different person now than I was and she's grown a lot too. I love her, but I just have a strong feeling that this shit is gonna blow up in my face if we do try this. It's got me stressed as fuck. One part of me wants to just completely cut contact and the other part doesn't want to give up on the idea of us being happy together.
What do?

Try it.
Not many people get the chance to get back together with a person they really felt something towards.
You see people like me and other anons bleeding out of our hearts daily because we still can't let go off a relationship from years ago that made us feel things nothing else could and still can't.
And the worst thing is that we know we can't get it back, yet it still hurts.
Some of us ache from time to time, some of us ache every single day when we wake up.
Give it a go, at least you'll use your chance.
>>
Do you not want to be together with her because you are scared that it will go wrong? Or because it doesnt feel right to get back together?
I dont think that I can give you anymore advice since you dont really say why exactly you broke up. But do you think that its possible to even be happy together? You should talk to her more about it. Maybe you can have a test period for a week or so to see If you do want to get back together or just let it be

Oh no

That's called lust Anon

Irrelevant, she has fucked plenty of other guys, she had her fun, she wants a "safe" bet for the mean time, or she is damaged.
>I love her
You have a bad breakup, she appears back in your life, you get your dick wet and you catch the feels?
>but I just have a strong feeling that this shit is gonna blow up in my face if we do try this.
It will, it didn't work the first time, it won't work the next time
>It's got me stressed as fuck.
Really?
>One part of me wants to just completely cut contact and the other part doesn't want to give up on the idea of us being happy together.
It will fail, you will realise you have both grown apart, and that you aren't ready for the changes in each other (if that's true).
If it didn't work the first time, it won't work the second, third, or even the fifth time, regardless of effort, concessions or desire, she knows she can go elsewhere, and she won't hesitate to do it again.

Hey /adv/, so in growing up i've been able to deal with anxiety I had experienced up to now, where I am so calm about everything in my life its almost lethargic.
The thing is, its different with girls. Growing up, i've always idealized the thought of "having" a girl and how perfect sex must be (I didnt have any until I was 19). Since then I've been with plenty of girls - but for some reason it is the one aspect of my life I still experience negative emotions in (neediness, anger, fear). I could use some advice to try and let girls become something that is no longer such a big to me.
Thanks

well women are more susceptible and mostly function on emotions. (generally speaking)
maybe you trying to relate to them makes you emotional as well.
I can't really tell you how to be more indifferent towards women, that's mostly an attitude that you cultivate with age. Try becoming the opposite but the goal being of finding a sweetspot

How do I get over the hardest breakup of my life?
It was completely my fault, and I deal with that guilt every day. I'm going to therapy and trying to become a better person, but things just keep resurfacing and it makes me feel all the more horrible about everything that happened.

I haven't figured it out entirely yet myself Anon. I can tell you that drinking doesn't help, nor does overworking yourself. Things that did help were moving and trying events/hobbies that I like but normally wouldnt have done. Going into nature alone is helpful. Swimming is peaceful. Gaining comfort and security in solitary things helps. But it is so hard, I know firsthand. The guilt, anger, near loss of identity and creating a new one..it all sucks. It gets better each day, but is still a struggle. Hang in there and seek comfort in being alone, but knowing you arent the only one alone. A good close friend or rebound fling is useful as long as you are clear on your intentions or lack of from the beginning.

Just keep going what you're doing, focus on yourself for free time can be good. Maybe ask more specific questions?

I have poor social skills, even though I've made friends throughout my high school career, I just am someone who has always sat out social events, and secluded myself in my own room. I get out and hang with friends sometimes but I can't be arsed to be social. I don't know how to hold a conversation, especially not with adults. I think I'm afraid of talking to adults too. Kind of why I never asked for help from teachers. I've always been shy, but I had a good group of friends in elementary. I guess I never would admit out loud I had a social problem. My ego denies it. I make excuses probably. Its not like I want to completely change my nature, I am introverted after all. But I need social skills. What do? How do I get myself out there?

>How do I get myself out there?
You go out. Find something you like doing so interacting with people is just a by-product of having fun.
I'm a moderately attractive 8.5/10 (average according to /soc/), and I'm getting really frustrated with my lack of having a life.
I really want to meet a qt3.14 gf, and I'm more than confident enough in my looks not to scare anyone off, but I have no clue where to meet one.
I don't go to that many parties, but when I do, the girls are either all taken or not attractive to my liking. (Sorry, I'm a chauvinistic pig and I seek the form of beauty). I needlessly work 12 hours a day, but I don't meet anyone from outside the office. Tinder is full of people who just want to fuck and chuck, but I'm looking for girls a little more serious.
How do I meet girls? Can I just go up to people on the street and give them complements and also for their numbers like the old days?

>pic unrelated
So I'm mainly trying to practice with my translating, picked up a series that had been dropped 2 years ago decided I wanted to keep reading and found myself the raws. I'm considering sharing the love though since I went through the effort.
I know since fan translations are so common the likelyhood of anyone giving a fuck about me reuploading my shitty MS paint english edits is slim to none in the first place, and I know it's probably technically violating copyright laws and whatnot.
Every source I can find though states this manga has never been brought over to America, nobody owns the rights to it here as far as I can see, ergo there is no official release or translation.
Basically I'm just wondering what's the worst that can happen, I get a cease and desist from Japan and have to take it down lol?

I met a girl in a drunken night of passion in my local club. I've never been kissed so much and passionately as I did that night.
I got her name and she was responsive and flirtatious after I asked if we could ever meet again. She lives 40 km from I where live.
There's a chance we could up tomorrow night for Thirsty Thursday in a town midway between us.
Anons who've made with your gfs whats the best way to text/go on a date/ behave. I feel so clueless
BUT SO GODDAMN HAPPY!

Hey /adv/,
This is the first I've been on this board so forgive me for any uncultured things I say.
I've known this girl for 3 years now and she's like, literally perfect. Girl of my dreams and stuff. We're super close friends. Everybody thinks we're together. I want to be together. But if a nasty breakup or just a breakup in general happens I won't have an amazing friend anymore. What do? pic unrelated

You can't have her as a gfand a good friend unless you ask. How bad you want to date her is the answer to if you should ask. If she rejects you, you will have to leave her forever. It will be awkward and never the same again. But of course you know all of this. So ask her or don't. No one can actually give advice on this.
