ive been thinking and ive realised that a lot of problems in my life stem from having too much empathy. basically, i care more about that other people feel nice rather than myself, which as im not one of those people that particularly enjoys seeing/making people happy is obviously to my detriment

my question is, how can i become less empathic, nice, etc. whatever you want to call it? im not looking to become a sociopath, but just care a lot less about how other people feel. i just feel bad if im making someone else feel bad (no matter how small that is, even just making them uncomfortable is the same for me) and i would like to not do that. having a bit more of a harder edge and being a bit more ruthless is obviously an advantage in life and love

the key here isn't to be less empathetic to others, but rather to be better to your self.

if there is a starving man on the street it does not mean you have to give him your meal. if there is someone standing on the bus, it does not mean you have to give them your seat.

if the person is really old or clearly disabled, sure give them your seat. if you can easily get your self another meal without this sorto f habit interfering with your long term finances, then give him a meal.

but don't take sacrifice for just anyone for no reason. you are deserving of the same things everyone else has, so there is no reason why you should give up these comforts unless its part of your dom/sub fantasy.
>>
>>18391931
i think the exact definition for that perspective is academic, but my question is how do you actually get into that mindset?
>>
>>18391917
What makes you think you are nice, especially "too nice"? Genuinely nice people are well liked and get ahead in life and gain loyalty of friends and have an easy time getting a gf/bf. Perhaps you are not as nice as you think, or you have a slew of other negative qualities you need to fix.

"Girls like assholes and hate nice guys" is a retarded meme. Don't fall for it.

This is very stupid but after seeing it on the internet since I was like 12 I can't help but get worried.
I'm 24 and a virgin for a slew of reasons from retardedly specific standards to self esteem issues blah blah etc you've heard this all I'm sure. Something that is starting to really concern me is that I might be losing my grip as a result of it. I pretty much ruined one of my friendships with a girl from school because I ended up falling for her and couldn't keep my emotions together. I did some pretty fucking cringe shit that I would have only thought about years ago.

Recently I was hanging out with some of my best friends from high school, one of whom is a girl. While we were hanging out she got slightly drunk and started talking about how much she wishes we hung out as much as we used to and how cool I am etc. On the way home the absurd thought that I could ask her to do me a favor and take my virginity popped up in my head

Basically, I'm really terrified that I'm turning into the typical autist who just has never get laid that you see all across the internet. Im worried this is going to get even worse with time and eventually I'm going to become bitter about it too and end up hating the world/women/"Chads" etc

This is probably going to seem irrational but it seriously feels like my mental state is starting to go off key. How do I fix this (besides the obvious go get laid)?

Take a vacation in Thailand. Spend two weeks in Bangkok. Spend at least 30 minutes a day outside your hotel, even walking around town is fine. Be sure to carry around $50 or so.

You are guaranteed to not leave a virgin.

>On the way home the absurd thought that I could ask her to do me a favor and take my virginity popped up in my head

NOPE.

Unless she is VERY open about being very casual about her sexuality all that that will result in is her no longer thinking you are a cool guy.

You could ask her out though and get her the regular way.

mmm ingrown toenail. see a podiatrist and if you don't have insurance it should only be around $300 to get it fixed. in the mean time make sure it's sanitary so soak it in warm epsom salt water and use rubbing alcohol frequently.

Damn dude you need to dunk that shit in hydrogen peroxide and then bandage that shit up.

Go to a doctor. Looks like an in grown toenail.
>>
>>18391856
another option is to get really drunk and just rip the whole fucking thing off like a maniac. it'll grow in the same way but you can have some temporary relief. podiatrist is the way to go because they kill the nail bed with acid on a cotton swab so it doesn't grow into that spot anymore.

I know I'm gonna get laughed at but I don't give a shit
>I'm a Fine Arts major

American student two years into my bachelor's degree. I love art but I am increasingly convinced that I'm going to ruin my life with debt and be unable to find a job. I want to drop out of college to minimize the amount of debt I have to pay back, and start working right away. Then with a stable job I can keep doing art on the side, as a hobby.

The problem is that I mentioned this to my parents and they went insane. Like, flipped their shit, once they realized I wasn't joking. They think its the stupidest idea ever, and that I'll be nothing but a failure and a loser my whole life without that degree, and that I might as well be dead (my dad's words) if I'm stuck in a manual labor 9-5 job that I hate, like he is.
I truly believe that if I continue putting myself in debt, I'm going to end up a failure and loser anyway with a worthless degree and have to move back in with my parents to pay it off.

How can I convince them that this is a good idea? They have good intentions but just don't UNDERSTAND that college and employment is not like it used to be.

Are there any statistics or stuff I can pull up to prove to them that having a BFA is not going to make finding a job any easier, or mean that I'm going to get rich and be able to pay off my quarter-of-a-million dollar debt in ten years?

Propose to them that they pay your last 2 years of student loans.

If they're unwilling then fuck them - you are absolutely right to not further indebt yourself.

A possible compromise would be to chabge your major to something more lucrative. I'm assuming you've already knocked out a lot of pre-reqs that could potentially transfer to another major

Another option would be to enlist in school overseas where tuition isn't a fucking racket like here in America
>>

Take some major life insurance out on your parents. They will die and you will get rich within days of their passing. Take your dad's advise and do insurance at same day
>>
>>18391782
>>18391784
I'm not really worried about what I'm going to do, I already know that I'm 99% likely going to drop out and start working regardless of whether or not they approve

I just want to convince them because I'd rather not live with the fact my parents think I'm a fuck up, and also in case I end up having to move back in anyway to help pay off the debt I have already or if I can't find a job that pays enough to live on my own (living in dorms now)

Console: Would be an Wii. Keep in mind that it would be a lot more expensive, and i've been away form the gaming world, would buy this to try to get back

Kindle: Buying this to enhance my reading experience as books can get pretty expensive around here. Would be a lot cheaper than the wii.

Why buy a kindle that limits you to only reading when you can get a tablet that does 100x more for around the same price.

I'd get a wii just because it seems like a better way to kill time rather than a kindle that (yes) can also kill time. I just feel that kindles are outdated by now.

I do have a tablet, but i heard that reading on the Kindle is a LOT better.

>loving grandma dies

>Her daughter (dads sis) says she found no will
>house will be split 50/50 between dad and her
>she and her family want me to sign a deal so I am my sick dads guardian (alcoholic) so I get to get his part - pay his loans and get the rest of the profit for myself
>catch is he owes a little money which I have to pay but they say that it's like just 1/17th of the house profit no problem
I noticed their "kindness" was a little off, so I asked about how we're going to do this procedure. They told me there's no problem, all I need to do is meet up with them and their lawyer so as to sign the paper and get the free shekels. The real catch here is though: I have to pay my dads shit untill he dies (depending on what the paper says, but that's what they're aiming for without telling me).

So I called up my lawyer, and she said that this is some shady shit and that they're trying to ass me backwards, but that she'll help. I called them up and told them that I'm bringing my lawyer to the meeting and they literally shit their pants on the phone. "W-why I mean, we hired one for us a-all I mean.. why you didn't have t-to! Be a compassionate son to your dad!!" Seen as he's never been there in my life and I've met him once a year for 2-3 hours until I can't stand his drunkness I really don't know what they're on about.

Should I plot a revenge, or just leave them be in their own filth?

>Can't get rid of anxiety
>Hospital refuse to give me heavy pills because of past OD's
>Instead offered ECT

Anyone been through it?

I've heard two people who thought it helped them, and one calling it all bullshit.

I was brought in by force due to my behaviour and line of thought, can't arse myself to go to the court about it.
Had a few ECT treatments two years ago, but then I didn't have a choice, as I was deemed unfit to do any decisions for myself.
Now, I was "given a choice", but I have to do it no matter what I say, because I don't know if it will work or not.
Last treatment ended early as I brought in alcohol on the ward, which is illegal, so they sent me home KeK.

Open for any questions. Keep me company.

When I was a kid (about 10-11 years old) I watched a disturbing scene in a film. I haven't had the courage to watch this scene ever since, but I notice I occasionally dream of this scene and keep seeing that scene in different contexts if I have a bad dream occasionally. It's been about 12 years ago now since I saw that scene. I dreamt about it again last night, what should I do?

Watch the movie again. Now that you're older you can put it in a different context and understand what scared you about it better and get over it.

I think I understand how your bf feels a little bit, it's not this specific fetish for me though. I am extremely turned on when my gf is grossed out or in pain.

>I feel gross. Dirty inside. I find the whole thing disturbing as hell.
yes, exactly, this is when I would love to lift her skirt up and fuck her brains out.
But back to the real world, it never happened, I always have to make her wet first, slowly build up, touching her lower back, eating her pussy, stop when she's hurt, I repressed this urge for so long...

Hey guys I don't really know where else to turn, so I thought I'd come here. I went to a job interview yesterday and I freaked out when they told me they drug test all applicants right there after the interview. So I made up some bullshit about having to reschedule.

I haven'tsmoked in two weeks..And now I have another twoweeks to get it out my system before I have to go back, which would be a total of 4 weeks of no smoking. I'm focused on the best way to get clean within these two weeks.I used to smoke 3 grams of reggie a dayvia gravity bong (2 litter soda bottle & bucket of water). Will I be able to get clean in time? Any tips?


Aslo...does that "Certo" thing really work? I'd hate to try it out only to an embarrass myself when the test still comes out positive..

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 waterwith butter, lol)
date of drug test:June.20.2017
frequency of smoking:3 grams of Reggie a day(low grade stuff)
Exercise:None(but I will start again)

>>18391556
Drink a gallon of water every day until the day of the test. It'll rinse out eventually. You probably dont have to worry too much.
>>
just don't smoke. it's really that easy. also
>reggie
the lingo is retarded these days. I mean even more than it used to be.

stop smoking and get to the gym lanklet.
>>
>>18391556
there's also the chance that it's a bluff to weed out the people who start to sweat and mysteriously have to "reschedule" the interview.

I'm expected to function highly in a state of having nobody to hang out with. Sometimes people will go out to eat with me, and occasionally they'll invite me to things, but that's it. If I have a better or more intimate idea like, "Hey I can cook you dinner," or, "Let's watch a movie," people only seem to want to do that if they're horny.

I'm really fucking lonely. I became depressed with panic attacks and suicidal thoughts, so I went to the hospital. There I actually met several girls, but you can imagine how long that lasted.

I want to just go to work and training like a normal person, but it's so difficult to do in this state of loneliness. I don't think I can pull it off without some semblance of companionship. I can't afford any pets.

It's not just horniness or something. I don't know where to go to feel purpose, and every moment that I'm not completely distracted involves psychic pain from being alone.

What should I do? Should I fold my arms and say, "I don't want to live like this. I refuse to function in my role if it involves this much loneliness"? That would probably involve me going back to some treatment center. Hopefully people my age would be there.

What I really want is a good friend, but those are hard to come by.

Do you ever reach out to them? Are you ever the guy who says "Let's all see that new movie" or whatever?

From the outside, shyness is hard to distinguish from aloofness, and if they get the impression that YOU don't like THEM, they'll respect your privacy and not impose invitations on you.
>>
>>18391422
I have been reaching out more. I'm trying to get the guys to go to a concert with me. I'll end up lonely the next day, though. Maybe I'm codependent.

Either way, it's nice to go out with people. I'll probably have a good time.
>>
OP, I'm not saying this to make you feel bad but you don't mention whether this is a recent development or current predicament, or that it's always been like this.
If it is, then you're doing something wrong. If the common element between lots of different situations of emotional coldness is you, you have to question what you are doing wrong. Sure, you might be boring or an asshole or only ever talk about yourself. But there are many other options as well. Maybe you are so desperate for human contact that you are trying to hard to bend over backwards for anyone, which causes people to find you less interesting because they never get to see the real you. Maybe they can tell on some level that you care more about interaction with anyone at all than about who they are personally. Perhaps you become stiff because you try too hard to do everything "normal". More options but you get the idea. Really reflect on how you treat others, how those same people are treated by the people they prioritize over you etc...

You can change yourself easier than you can change the world.

>dont shower or brush teeth
I had the same problem when my depression was at its worst. sometimes ~12 weeks between showers and I wouldn't even be able to recall the last time I had brushed. The most important thing here is figuring out how to change any routine, not just yours specifically.

Start by doing something to break the routine. For me it was planting some tomatoes and catnip and performing the daily maintenance to keep them alive. Yours could be going for a short walk either around the house or the neighborhood. Or perhaps doing some bodyweight exercises like squats.
>>
Can you drive? go for a drive and maybe find some place to go for a walk and be alone. walking around your neighborhood is ok but you don't really want to be in a place where people might judge you. you start thinking about weird things like that when you're walking around alone. The point of walking is to clear your head and feel good for the next few hours.

Ok /adv/

I just graduated high school, and lost my virginity this year. I'm genuinely not bragging about that, it'll hold relevance later. The girl I had sex with was somebody that I had tried to be with for a really long time. I stuck it out w her till her and her boyfriend of three years broke up, and we ended up having sex. After a few times she eventually told me she hated herself for what she was doing, and said she didn't wanna do this anymore. I knew this was bullshit because I knew from one of my close friends that she was just returning to her boyfriend, and truthfully I don't understand why. I'm a tall, slim, active, talented dude who's going into the Marines and he's a fat manlet who's biggest achievement was playing for our football team in the offensive line which lost all of its games. I saw them at prom and he was being super lazy, and refused to have fun, which, I know from our conversations, he has done a lot, and has been a buzzkill many times in the relationship. Regardless, before prom and all of that I get a call from him asking how many times we've had sex, he acts cool w me but he's super condescending, and from there on out she just texts me that she never wants to hear or see me again. This truthfully did not hurt at all at the time. I was totally cool w having casual sex. I asked for a conversation for closure, just cause I feel a conversation is warranted to clear the air o we everything that has to deal w multiple important matters. She didn't, I called her a coward, and her boyfriend threatened to fight me and all that bullshit.

I mention all of this for a reason, seeing them at prom has honestly made me start thinking of her a lot. I've thought about her pretty much all day every single day since then. I truthfully was not attached before that, but all of a sudden I can't seem to get over what could've been. She's pretty basic, but she's gorgeous and a lot of fun, and hypotheticals have been running through my mind ever since, how our dances and nights would've been, our summers, etc. I know this shit is super long. But how the fuck do I deal with this? I'll without a doubt never see her again unless something other worldly happens, and I just can't move past hypotheticals. I'm like that and I hate it. Sorry for the essay, but what the fuck do I do/adv/?
