So, I'm an artist and a fairly good one (not tooting my own horn, but it's necessary to provide context for this post). Recently have been seeking dates online and on Tinder, and when I say I'm an artist, the dates inevitably ask to see my work, and then get really enthusiastic when they do. Recently, I turned someone down because they were really eager to "have a friend to draw with at coffee shops!" or "draw my board game idea!" before we had even met in person.

Has anyone else experienced something similar? Is there a term for when you're reduced to your specific ability (whether sports, music, art, etc)? I'm not seeking someone talented, but rather someone with an authentic personality that I can get along with and laugh with and everything. I feel offended when people reduce me to my talent, even if it's my job and my livelihood. Am I in the wrong for turning people down when that's the only attribute they're attracted to, or seems to be?

Reject them
Move on
That's life

Or you can life in a artist city and just date other artists
>>
>>18415999
I can understand why you would be offended, but if I may offer advice, you shouldn't get mad about having an in that works. More likely than not, they're not solely attracted to you for being an artist - probably wouldn't get as many hits if you were twice as talented but looked like Quasimodo you know? And part of dating, and one of the most fun parts for me at least, is discovering things about the other person. I think you're overreacting by assuming these girls just want you to be their painter on a leash. I'm sure most of the time these girls offering to draw with you and stuff are just trying to connect with you over something you obviously enjoy. You might as well hide that you're an artist if you don't want them to talk about it, it's kind of ridiculous.
>>
As an artist, you'll find that unless it pays well, there is no shame in not wasting your time with people who don't understand the effort it takes for art. I don't know what your medium is, but "drawing at the coffee shop" isn't a valid / comfortable option for everyone... However, having an "art night" is a great way to break the ice with a fellow artist.

Which military branch is the best to join if i'm not totally jacked. I've been running 2 miles a day for prep. What should I join?
I've already done interviews with recruiters for the Marines and Air National Guard.

Marine guy seemed pretty cool but wanted me to sign up right away.

Air National Guard guy was more relatable and guaranteed a $20,000 enlistment bonus.

haven't really investigated any other branch. What do you guys recommend?

Father was career Airforce - 23 years. Retired after the petnagon passed him over for promotion to Col. rank twice. Airforce/chairforce will keep you pretty safe if you want to avoid actual combat and handle things like logistics. If you decide to go military, buck for officer training ASAP or work on getting a degree to bump up your paygrade and STAY THE FUCK IN THE SERVICE!

Because of my dad's foresight, my folks have healthcare and a solid retirement, they own their own home, have a bit in investments, and are, for the most part, financially solid.

choose between air force, ang, or navy. army if you don't want any of those.

There is this girl in college that harrases me constantly, she's always touching me, and saying things like "i love you" loudly, i tried to play it cool at first , but it has worsened, I have told her that i really dont like, i have insulted and yelled slurs at her and even slapped her once.
What can I do?

Idk you're male so no one cares about you. You could try to go to some kind of disciplinary office at your school, or try to go to police/lawyer to seek a restraining order if that doesn't work (it likely won't be granted though). Or address it through her friends or your friends or whatever. Or just don't respond to her at all. Like pretend she's completely invisible and ignore everything she does; some people just want to get a response out of you and get bored if they don't get one.

Nice. You have a scary-movie type stalker. There are social programs schools have that you could/should probably inform them about just so you can have things on paper

I found my boyfriend talking to this girl on his phone, he sends her porn that I originally sent him- and said that he wants to fuck her.

Is this cheating?
Should I be upset?
I am kind of upset, it would be different if he'd told me.
But from everything I read it seems like he is planning to eventually cheat on me.

I was set to move in with him at the end of the month. Does this change things? Should it?

I got a seasonal job inspecting crops after being picked.
During my training, my supervisor keeps talking about extremely long hours and would use the example of 8am-2am and then back to work at 8am.
I asked one employee who had worked there for several years how common that was and he said 8am-2am is rare but shifts like 8am-11pm is more common.

There's obviously breaks throughout but it's still overwhelming.
I don't want to sacrifice my sanity working 12-16 hours 7 days a week.

Is my only solution to quit before I get to far into it?

I worked a factory job like that and after about 2 months the ligaments in my knee fucked up from standing and doing repetitive motions to much. I wasn't past the 6 month trial period yet and was only through a temp agency so they fired me and I had to pay all my dr bills myself even tho it was a work related injury

I spent last spring abroad in Cuba, and I went into the semester a super virgin in every way only having kissed 2 girls and smoked pot a few times in high school. Once I got there, I started drinking like a motherfucker. Rum was so cheap I got fucked up regularly and wound up embarrassing myself once or twice. I had always wanted to try smoking cigarettes and while I was out there I managed to avoid addiction but I polished off a couple of different packs of cigs.

I got very addicted to that life of going out, getting hammered and smoking with impunity that was permissible out there. Shit on the final night there, I got hammered and didn't want to leave a virgin so I fucked a hooker (wasn't able to finish though and just wound up leaving after a bit to go home). Easily one of the biggest regrets of my life.

I'm trying to put it all behind me but now I'm just a 20 year old dude back in the shitty Pacific Northwest. Working a job but here I can't smoke without everyone thinking I'm a piece of shit for it, I can't drink without literally breaking the law and I can't go out because everything is 21+.

How the fuck do I get back to planet earth and leave behind this desire to constantly go out, get fucked up and live that party lifestyle?

The drinking and partying lifestyle eventually leads to sex, whether you know it or not.

I've established a very friendly relationship with a co-worker since I started working a few weeks ago. While swiping on Tinder at work (it's been slow today), I found the co-workers profile. The twist is, I've heard she has a boyfriend. Obviously having a Tinder account somewhat trivializes the that.

We're both at work right now and will be alone together until later tonight. I'm looking for opinions on if I should playfully approach her with her profile up and see what happens, just swipe right and see what happens, swipe left and do nothing, or perhaps something else?

I'm personally leaning towards the first option simply because we both tend to be jokingly shitty towards one another and I think she'd be amused, but I also don't want to cross some arbitrary line.

Swipe right and joke if match. Otherwise don't botter. She'll feel threatened that you found out her secret. It could end up awkward for you, since there are things like open relationships and such, which are not your business.

Hell even if she's a cheater, it's none of your business, and I fucking hate cheaters.
>>
>>18415719
and besides, some people in relationships are on tinder with no intention on matching, let alone meeting anyone - some are just curious to see how people on tinder are like, because their friends talk about tinder all the time. Some use tinder purely as a source of entertainment
>>
>>18415719
>>18415760
I shouldve been more clear. I know the intricacies of the relationship from her personally - boyfriend is not the best descriptor. It's more in limbo than that. I do however agree with your sentiment on cheaters.

My end goal in using this would be to gain some insight into seeing if I'm wasting my time or not in pursuing something - not to accuse anyone of cheating.

I'm meeting up with this girl I have a crush on tomorrow. I haven't spoke to her in about a year.

The thing is she has a boyfriend.

How do I let her know I want to keep in touch in a way that doesn't suggest I'm trying to steal her from him? (If she thinks that then she probably won't want to speek to me again!)

You don't, you just keep in touch naturally. Asking for it is cringeworthy and forceful.

I feel it won't happen naturally though, we'll meet up tomorrow for a bit at her volunteer work (I've used this as an excuse to go along with her) and I feel we will just go our separate ways at the end of the day, and won't speak again.

ITT: Ask the opposite gender anything

GUIDELINES:
Before you post a question, check the FAQ to see if it's already been answered.
Keep questions short for more answers.
If you're not going to like honest answers, don't ask your question.
And please no derailing arguments.

FAQ:
>Do girls/guys like <insert specific look>?
>What do girls/guys think about <an insecurity including, but not limited to: looks, physical traits, personality traits, virginity or otherwise lack of dating experience>
There is no one answer. Preferences differ, but complexes are always a turn-off.

>I'm shy and afraid of people/rejection. What do I do?
Get over it by practising and exposing yourself to it, little by little, step by step. There is no single magical moment that will instantly change you forever.

>I like someone. What do I do?
>How can I tell if someone likes me?
Ask them out.

>Where do I meet girls/guys?
Anywhere outside. Or online.

>Someone did something insignificant. What does it mean?
Nothing significant. You're overthinking it.

>XYZ happened. Interpret this for me please
We're not in their head, we don't know.

>This person did something that hurt my feelings. Why do guys/girls do this?
Because shit people are shit people. It's not a gendered thing.

>Someone has made it super clear they're no longer interested in me. Do I still have a chance?
No.

>Where do I go on a first (or subsequent) date?
Pick one or more of the following: coffee, lunch, dinner, drinks, ice cream, movies, zoo, aquarium, museum, art gallery, <activity in your city>.

>Brandon, that guy who keeps asking about cuddling in platonic friendships, fart guy and the guy who stuffs his pants
Fuck off

>Why is there no new thread?

>im dicking tons of females while barhopping
>maybe 7 in last 2 months all random snapchat/tinder females
>friend is kind of a good girl but we just click and are really good friends
>used to tell me she didn't wanna have sex because of it
>she been throwing out all these "i love you" comments and being really standoffish now when she sees my snaps/out partying
>"Well I stopped inviting you out because you never accepted and you always threw it in my face I would leave with someone else"
>few days pass she is being really emotionally open and dropping deep convos + spamming i love you thanks for being there for me
>finally just ask her "Look I know im kind of a casual sex guy but are you catching feels finally just tell me to stop it and I will"
>"Do you want something from me just ask and be honest we are friends and i will be open with you I would love to be with you not just for sex but a real relationship"
>her response "I don't wanna answer that"
>my response "then stop with the mixed signals because you know I care about you"

if she doesn't openly admit to wanting to make an attempt should I cut her off if she keeps sending mixed messages and being lovey dovey. I aint good with lovey dovey if its not legit and she never used to do this. her response of "I don't wanna answer that" makes me think she feels some type of way
>>
>>18415597

You put her in the friendzone lol. She doesnt want to answer because she wants you but doesnt want to lose you; sitting in limbo, in her mind, is the safest option to prevent that.

Obviously she wont just open up and all that shit because she knows first hand you are into casual sex and not really into relationships. Shes afraid of being just another girl to you like all the other girls. Cant blame her, thats your pattern. Nothin wrong with that either though.

Id say that if you truly want a relationship with this girl, you need to prove to her that you do, and that you are done with the hookup scene FOREVER. Thats a big commitment. Telling her you are isnt good enough. You gotta earn her trust through your actions. How you do that is the complicated part, you know her, we dont. Maybe another anon can expand on that.

>tldr yes she is crazy about you but afraid to admit it

i'm about to quit my job this thursday and i gonna tell the girl i like that i like her tomorrow because well i gonna quit the job so if she tells me no, then i guess fine because i not gonna se her anymore

Uber near a population center.

What Uber says about making 25, that's bullshit.

You can however pull about 50-70 dollars on a weeknight and 125 -150 bucks on a weekend night. The pay every Monday I believe. But apply now because they have to do a background check.

It's not great but it can save your ass in a pinch.

Let's say you're on a date with someone and the conversation is fun and engaging and you are both starting to feel very at ease with each other and there is some definite romantic potential.

What are some standard go-to moves to break the physical barrier and when do you become bold enough to deploy them?

Bonus question: what do you personally like to do/have done in this department?

best thing you can do is not have some formulaic artifice to bog you down, and instead simply do what feel naturally.

A lot depends on where you are and what you are doing on the date. So, it depends. Obviously if your at a restaurant sitting across from each other it's harder than if you are walking or sitting next to each other.

I always go for the hand holding or arm around the waist. Then wait to see her reaction.

I haven't smoked in 3 like weeks, and took an at home drug test last night and failed.. I have to take a drug test on the 20th of this month (urine). Is there any way in hell that I can pass this thing naturally? I was thinking of sweating my ass off through exercise, but feel like it would be hopeless... I haven't been drinking much water these past three weeks, but started drinking a gallon a day (since yesterday). I've a pic of the drug test I just failed...
Weight: 140lbs.
Height: 5"10
Body type: Average
date of last time smoked: May.28th.2017
(I didn't smoke that day, but I tried making "Weed Tea" out of all the stems I saved over the years, didn't get me high, I ended up drinking nasty ass hot water with butter, lol)
date of drug test: June.20.2017
frequency of smoking: 3 grams of Reggie every day (I'd smoke through a whole ounce of weed every 2 weeks)

I wear two hoodies and run for about an hour, then I sit in my bathroom in the same outfit and let the hot water in my shower run so it acts like a sauna. I try to drink two gallons of water too.


If anyone has been in my position please, I could really use some help (Test is literally 7 days from now)

What does it mean when a girl says "we'll talk later?"

Context:
>Be me
>23 living in New England
>Match with girl on Tinder
>Just my type. Black hair, into horror movies, super introverted. Hates the sun and everything.
>Pick her up at 12:30 AM
>Go for a drive and smoke cigarettes
>Pull up to a hiking trail parking lot
>Cuddle on the front of my car under the full moon talking and vibing.
>We get along incredibly well. She comments multiple times how she's never met anybody like me and how comfortable I'm making her feel.
>We both start getting super sleepy.
>Drive her home and drop her off.
>She goes for a goodnight hug and we kiss three times. I think she realized I wasn't expecting to make out and was just going to give her a goodnight kiss so she stopped herself from getting too heated.
>She is smiling hard as fuck getting out of my car and thanks me for an amazing evening.
>Usually I don't text girls after dates but I texted her shortly after saying I had a great time and we should get together again sometime. Also told her "text me."
>She texts back almost immediately gushing about how much fun she had and says "we'll talk soon."

This was Friday night. I was planning on waiting till Thursday night to text her, or should I just wait it out?

If it's best I initiate contact, what should I say? I was thinking something like "Hey *name* hope all is well." just to test the waters. If she responds positively I'll ask if she has plans this weekend. If she says she's free I'll arrange another date.

Pic related looks a lot like her.

She texted you within minutes. Which means she really liked you. And then you try to play games and make her wait a week.

As if you don't give a shit about her, making her doubt her enjoyment of the moment.


What do you think?

>>18415508
I think 6 days is an okay amount of time to wait to text her?

She's only 18 and in her last two weeks of High School plus she works so I'm pretty sure I'm not making a mistake by waiting six days to text her...are you saying I should text her asap?

I've never had sex before and I told my gf that I had and I'm going to have sex with her soon.

I'm really scared about not being able to please her, what are some tips you can give me?

>fingered a woman
>fondled breasts and nipples
>kissed women
>had my penis go into a vagina and then out


what position? What rhytym and motion?

Her clitoris is kinda hard to find and it seems as if she's unresponsive to its simulation. She says she doesn't have a gspot

doesn't matter, she's already convinced herself she doesn't get anything out of sex. think of it as practice and just try shit and see what happens

>>18415374
Dude, if you had Penis in Vagina, that means you had sex, right? Are you confused about something?

And look, you're on the wrong mindset. You need to learn by doing. She'll have things she likes that are unique. Some women like to be talked to, like to hear a guy talk about cumming inside her, others think that's crass and will want to run away at the thought.

Everyone is different, you have to get to know her. Don't listen to some plastic bullshit about, oh you gotta do this, or oh you gotta do that.

What you have to do is get to know her body, instead of listening to a bunch of strangers online telling you what to do based on their limited empirical experiences that probably don't include sex with your woman.
>>
if you cant be straight with your gf what the fuck are you doing? might as well hook up at a bar

when i first kissed my first gf i told her it was my second kiss ever. later i told her it was my first kiss ever. she was the one more embarrassed about it.
