Is good to willingly keep yourself in the friendzone?There's this girl I flirt with. Im sure she likes me because we can get intimate physically but not sexual. I purposely not make it go any further than that. I know I can get her to be my girl, but I'm at the point of my life that I want a wife and kids and I am looking for domestic wifey traits and this girl, while a virgin is still a bit chuldish. She has very little responsibilities and she's supported by her parents. She doesnt do many chores and she mostly hangs with her friends doing girly things. While I still live with mom as well, she's widowed and I am the man of the house. I pay bills and I work to get everything in good working order. Should I just make her my girl and wait for her to grow up? Should I teach her chores?

I'm in pretty much the same position. Have a friend that is very flirty with me and we tend to make out when drunk but I can't see it being a relationship because even though the age gap isn't that big she's naive in strange ways that I know would come between us having a successful long term relationship, and that's a problem because I am at the age where I am not looking to be involved in anything that will turn out to be short term.

I say leave it. There's a chance that dating her will mature her faster but it's a big risk and you could sink a few years into this girl only to have it not work out and have to start again.

1) you don't decide if you are in the friend zone, she does, that's just a fact of life.

2) If she doesn't like you now she isn't going to later. This isn't a movie where you show her how much if a good guy you are and she realizes you're the one for her. If she doesn't show attraction in the beginning it's not going to happen later.

How the fuck do i do that

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 practicing 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. As for HOW, that requires first hand experience to understand. Just go out and do it. Over and over.

>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.

>Should I contact/try one last time/confess how I feel before they move away because I want "closure"?
Let's be real here. You don't want closure. Closure is a lie you're telling yourself. What you actually mean is you want is to magically convince/trick them in to liking you. Move on. This isn't healthy.

>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, fart guy, platonic cuddling guy
Fuck off

I don't drink much at all(once every few months) and i'm not looking to get fucking drunk off my ass
how would you guys plan this out

Okay figure out the number of beers it takes to get the desired buzz. Then make a rough estimate about how long it lasts for. Then just drink the beer according to thr buzz/hr graph.
>>
>>18181104
I would but no liquor stores are open right now
plus tomorrow liquor stores close at about 5pm so i'll have to buy some before i get where i'm going
just wanted an estimate or something

it depends, varies wildy from person to person
for 6 hours if you say you don't drink much you might want 1 beer every 45 min - a hour

Hurt my back in December working. Bulged a disc and ever since then my life has been a rut. I don't get sexually aroused anymore I don't get morning wood anymore. I don't feel like I'm doing anything. My back still hurts I've been in pt and have been doing my stretches religiously. I feel like it's hopeless. I don't like coming here anymore I also quit my favorite hobbies due to my injury. Has anyone been in my shoes and seen improvements?
Thank you for your time.

I don't have enough space for everything.

I read so many articles on "cute space saving ideas" that don't actually save space, just organise stuff or demand you throw stuff away or build a fucking closet under the stairs.

My husband is a musician I'm an artist and we're both currently crammed into one room containing all we own, sofa, massive old TV, bed, 2 desks, 2 wardrobes plus 7 guitars, mics, canvases, computers, vinyls...
You get the idea, it's all stuff we NEED, the furniture is expensive vintage stuff passed down or stuff like wardrobes we need for day to day living. We are moving out hopefully within the next 6-12 months to our own house but for the minute we're stuck.

We can't get rid of anything but on the other hand we also can't flipping get to anything.


What the hell do we do? How can we make this more workable?

Alright, I'm currently working part-time in a shitty food service job while studying in college. I really, really fucking hate this job. I hate my coworkers, my manager, and the restaurant in general. I don't even plan on using this job for my resume or CV in the future. I'm pretty sure my manager doesn't really care much about my work either. Are there really any benefits of quitting with less than two weeks (or no) notice if I don't plan to use this job at all for networking or reference purposes?

If you truly don't care and you wanna say fuck you then sure, but what's the harm in having the option to use it on a resume, at least it'll have meant SOMETHING

>Just turned 29
>Austin, TX
>khv
>6'4"
>white
>decent job (science)
>stutter really badly

I've wasted my youth alone, avoiding people for shitty reasons. Mostly that I stutter, and secondarily, that I have a shitty (not fat but not lean) body. I starting my teen years with the assumption that women would never want me because my stuttering automatically put me in a lower social caste.

I know, and have always known, that based on the size and growth rate of the human population, more than the top 10% of men must be fucking getting women. This, however, has never really made me feel any better.

I'm a scientist, and I've built the foundation for a really good future as far as that goes, but I feel like if I start having fun and talking to women now, I might realize that its not as hard as I thought it would be, and the regret would then REALLY start to set in. Nobody ever pushed me to go socialize in a big way, my parents are television addicts, and were always "tired" while I was growing up, but I worked hard and accomplished a lot in spite of not having a thriving male-social circle to drag me to bars/drug parties, etc.

Plus, I'm afraid that any "fun" and sex I start to have now could only amount to a shadow of what I could have had around 20-22, and that people would just think of me as pathetic for trying to recapture my youth.

I know that there is more to life than sex/alcohol/parties, but sometimes I wonder if there really is a point in working as hard as I do if I've missed every goddamn milestone up to this point.

Is there seriously a point to changing my life now, or should I just continue to run out the clock?

OP, you should read "how I stalked some dude with an exposed nipple and stumbled upon the Zenithian sword". Quite a mood lifter.

What you're lookin at here is 30 years of great sex instead of 40 years of great sex.

Listen to this cheesy old psychedelic rock song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78aLi00SHC8

Love's super important. But women are super difficult. They make no godamn sense at all. And you gotta realize, yeah, 90% of guys are getting laid, BUT they're all so horny that they're fighting tooth and nail for it. Often literally.

But, you know, you can combat that by having pretty low standards. I mean, try to imagine a women version of yourself: not great shape, lots of quirks, any emotional issues you have, etc. etc. Would you hit it? Well yeah, hopefully. And they feel the same way.

You're just gonna have to work for a while. But it's still funner than science. Girls just wanna have fun. If you can't find Urist McSoulmate on OKCupid, you're gonna have to drag yourself to places women go.

One big rule is to NOT GET JEALOUS of guys who get laid. Quite the opposite, make friends with them. Find ANYTHING you can in common. And learn their secrets.

But I'm rambling and jumping about because it's a huge topic. Everyone's got their own "game". Like I said, work. The scientific approach won't let you down. Trial and error. Observe facial expressions and conversations and your own emotions. etc.
>>
It seems as though you don't have much confidence in yourself. I think that you should not care about what others may think of you, and that you should start acting to do what pleases you. If you are dissatisfied with any part of yourself, you can't usually do something to fix it. If you don't like your body, you can start getting /fit/. If you are very sensitive about your stuttering, you can take speech therapy classes.

You need to stop caring about other people may think of you. It's your life, and you shouldn't let anyone else determine what you do. The age gap isn't gonna be an issue, and the people who would act weird about it aren't healthy friends to have.

As for having regrets, you are bound to have regrets no matter what you do. You might as well live life to the fullest now and look back to a sad past*, than to have never lived life and grow old thinking about what could have been.
*it's not even that sad, you sound as though you have set up a really good career for yourself

I think you should change your life to do what YOU want to do. If you want to experience the party/sex life, you should go for it. You're tall so keep the spaghetti to a minimum and you should get loads of girls. Do what makes you happy, and don't care about what others think.

Thanks for the input. I've been thinking about going to a gym for a while, but I don't know what the trainers there would think of me.

But like you two said, I shouldn't care about how they perceive me, and just do something like schedule a meeting with one of them. I can't be that out of the ordinary compared to the people they see on a daily basis.

I have real difficulty staying focused and paying attention.

How the hell can I learn to do the opposite, or somehow learn to get things done like this.

Leave this site and take Adhd meds
>>
>>18180891
ADHD meds are a start. But if you have ADHD that only goes so far. Meds make it easier, but they don't fix everything. You've got to learn to structure your life, and learn to make things as easy as possible for you. My cubicle is devoid of all unnecessary distractions. If it's not 100% work related, I can't have it around me while working. I won't let myself get on the internet at all while at work, even when I'm on my lunch break. I'm aware the second I allow myself to start surfing the internet I'm done, and will spend the next 3 hours surfing wikipedia instead of getting my shit done. I have alarms set on my phone set for everything I need to do in a day (including leaving work), just to make sure I don't get hyperfocused on something and fuck up my whole day. It takes a lot of time, and a fuck ton of effort to get thing under control.

1. I'm an arrogant elitist with NO tolerance for flagrant retards.
2. I can't interact with customers (refer to #1)
3. How do I find those jobs that are off the radar? The ones where you stop and go "how did anybody ever end up here? where do you look up that job position to begin with?"

What I mean is, there are jobs that nobody knows about and nobody hears about but I'm sure I could qualify for.

For instance, on an assembly line there are people that are experts at looming wires. Ever heard of that? Ever considered that such a job exists? Ever applied for that position? And if you think about it...how did that person get there?

How do I find these jobs??? Surely there is a resource for placing people there.

I can NOT work with customers to any extent, period. I've yelled at customers and called them retarded to their face. I've never been fired because I'm actually better than any of my peers no matter what job I have, but I have quit yet another job because a customer was so retarded I couldn't help but tell him "if you're that fucking stupid, go and do it your way, but I'm tired of dealing with sniveling weasel-faced retards like you", grabbed everything of mine and left.

I'm engineer oriented. I'm quite content working on an assembly line, generally just putting anything together or sorting anything. I like stability and regularity. I hate variable income or variable schedules. I want to clock in and out the same time everyday without the risk of any "homework". Clock in, clock out, give me my fucking check and don't talk to me.

I know I'm sounding pretty hostile and pissed but I hate people and this is the third job I've quit because I just couldn't tolerate them. I hate them, FERVENTLY.

i'm pretty high and i can't tell. are you asking for how to get a random, no-skill, factory job? Or how to get a cushy job, like factory safety inspector? Or does any job work whether factory related or not?

number 1 is easy. sign up at your local weird temp place. they pay $10 US an hour, you only take short assignments, and try to get hired at a place that's not too bad. at least that's how my town works. they're ALWAYS hiring, even if you've already worked there and never showed up. they're desperate.

the second option is harder. you have to just hang out with the right people, work peripheral jobs, google shit, etc. I'm yet to find one, i don't have nearly enough initiative. you'd have to persistently look for openings and stuff

and there's, like, stocking at walmart. that's not too bad.

I'm 20. Just got a job as a busser in a busy restaurant. Am poor. Fortunate enough to live off of the charity of a friend, he doesn't charge rent to live near NYC, this feels degrading but I'll be making roughly $300 a week at best after taxes. Just enough to cover the bills and save on the side.

Id really like to learn how to paint with traditional media, make big beautiful paintings of surrealist dreams. Would love to study art history as well.

Can someone give me some advice? Hopefully this new busser position works out I start Monday. How would I go about achieving my goal? Im thinking save money to take online courses. Visit museums like the MET when possible. I don't know how to paint well but I've painted before, the product is juvenile.

Okay anon, you aren't going to like this.
You already live off your friend who's a better person than 99% of people who wouldn't put up with that shit. So he's awesome.
Second, you just got a job that actually pays a little bit. It's shit, but it'll let you get things rolling.
I assume you don't have a burning passion for being a dish collector, but you do for painting and art. Okay, fine.
Please don't fuck your life up beyond repair more by pursuing a career in art.
Acquire a SKILL that pays real money, using the shit money you get from being a bussboy. Become an electrician, programmer, plumber, road worker, elevator repairman, whatever.
Then you can pursue your art stuff when you aren't living on your friend's good will. I hate to be a pessimist, but your friend might get tired of your non-rent-paying ass and kick you out only to fuck your life up more.
Get it together, dude.
I'm rooting for you, but please be practical.
>>
Dude, dont shame the busser life. I work in kitchens and know bussers that make fucking bank and support their families. Maybe work at a better restaurant? The hospitality scene in NYC is supposed to be super fruitful, take advantage. Most bussers make more than hosts who usually need at least a HS degree. And if you become a server at a high end place you could clear $300 a night, easy. You choose your attitude.

No I appreciate the input.
I'm probably going to go back to carpentry, general contracting, hiring sub contractors, etc stopped because of life circumstances. It was good money but u don't have enough left to re establish myself as an LLC.

Well Im sure painting can be a hobby. Thanks for the input anon. I'll focus on making a living.
