Should I adopt instead? Should I pass on my genes because if I was diagnosed 30-40 years ago I wouldn't have made it to my 20th birthday alive. I don't know if I could live with myself seeing my children and grandchildren having my disease.

I've had to have major surgery and spent a month in the hospital after losing nearly 80 pounds. Chronic pain. Can't work.

Adoption might be the best man. Talk to you significant other for sure though. Some things shouldn't be handled alone

tough rap anon. Just remember having biological children isn't the end all be all of existence. but also remember everyone's life is fraught with something, whether your children have your disease or not there lives aren't guaranteed to be easy. What does it mean to you to have children? If it was a 100% chance they would inherit this disease would you still consider it (knowing that with some struggle its survivable)? You gotta stop thinking of it from a depressed state. try to get your mind to a slightly more objective neutral ground. I hate the act of pain comparison but maybe try imagining someone born a slave, who decided to have children knowing that they to would be born slaves. Sometimes just the prospect of continue your heritage is reason enough (or maybe for you its not). Maybe your child could bring some great good to the world, maybe even find a cure for the disease themselves. maybe modern medicine will make the disease easier to live with in the future. maybe they wont have the disease at all. there's a lot to think about OP but you cant be depressed all the time and think about it.

don't be a selfish breeder, having children for your own ego, not caring if they live a good life

if you can detect the autoimmune disorder in the womb (and abort if positive) then yes, have kids

if not, don't

adoption is another barrel of shit where you often get heavily abused kids. maybe pick a sperm donor that looks like you?

I can't take it anymore. Has any one ever quit a job with no back-up plan? What were the results? (Also, I'm an American and our economy sucks right now - hard to find even a retail job.)

I got money in the bank, but it's not a lot. It would last me a year or maybe a little over one year. I just can't take this miserable cunt anymore.

yeah i quit a job that i hated around a year ago. granted id been there for 2 months max, but it was horseshit

no back up plan, but it was so bad i had to get out of there. i had some savings i could live on for a while until i found something else

then eventually i found something else and now im good again

I quit a job I was at for 7 years. I was in a management position but I kept getting more and more responsibilities without compensation. So I got fed up and just walked out one day after the owner of the company was an hour to a meeting I had scheduled with him to discuss what was going on.

I had like $30K in the bank so I wasn't too worried. I ended up taking almost a year off and blew through almost all my money going on a bender.

Anyway, I decided to go back to school and finish my degree. Before I finished a buddy offered me a job in construction and I took it cause it paid well. That job segued into my current job. Which is 100x better than the job I walked out on. I've been here for 4 years now and I'll only leave when they shut the doors. The only reason I got where I am though is because I'm one of the hardest working people you'll ever meet, and it's paid off. So my case is an exception and it involved some luck and things just falling into place at the right time. I wouldn't suggest ever leaving a job without having another one lined up. I will never do that again. I got lucky once, but it won't happen again. So get another job before you quit. Put your two weeks. Leave on good terms.

Do it Anon, don't work for that bitch. You'll find another job man. What was your job and salary? You don't have to give too many details.

So I'm a guy looking for a boyfriend (out of a somewhat niche community for reasons) who's smart enough to not buy into the political bullshit and also maybe knows a few things about computers and languages and martial arts or whatever that we both like enough to have nice conversations and laugh, while at the same time loving me as a human being with feelings and conflicts and not so faggot or tard who thinks you have to sacrifice humor and honesty to avoid the mere possibility of hurting other people's feelings.

Now look, despite typing all that, I'm not asking how to find such a magical man and such. What I want to know is: Why is all that too much to ask for? There are close to 7.5 billion people on the planet and yet it's as if such a guy just doesn't exist.

>>18180683

honestly you should highly consider making friends from communities such as /lgbt/, /soc/, programming and martial arts, etc. who aren't necessarily gay. They will have friends, of whom you may find an intersection between your interests, being attractive, and being gay. Believe me, it'll happen sooner than you think. Especially if you make friends with women, they love to try and introduce gays to each other.

I just want to go to a bar and find a relatively attractive girl to hook up with or something. What does this take and how is it done?

>>18180610

>what does it take

being relatively attractive, some balls, and most importantly of all: some luck.

>how is it done

go to a bar, scope out some chicks, preferrably a chick who looks over at you when you look over at her. then go talk. follow the mood. depending on what activities are available invite her to one. be nice to all her friends, if you try to take her away from her friends you will likely get shot down. easier to just mingle with everyone but have some fun with her.

if theres pool, invite her to pool, if theres darts, do that, dancing is best though.

You disliking her enough and your father being concerned about it should suffice. Make it super obvious. Just be petty with household things. If your dad's not a total shit and she is actually horrible, he should want to fix it.

What are some good drinks for someone who doesn't drink?

I recently turned 21 and I think that it's better to think of it not in terms of WHAT drink, but the TOTAL ALCOHOL. You will have no tolerance and 2 beers will make you fall asleep. A beer often has a similar alcohol content as a glass of wine, which is similar to a swing of scotch and most other hard alcohols.

For the taste, I would go out somewhere and get like one margarita with food, and drink it slowly. It'll taste good and you'll get used to the feeling without having to get accustomed to the taste of beer. Just realize that a margarita has a lot of alcohol per glass.

If you go to a tap and say you just turned 21 (and show an id), then they will usually let you sample different types of beer. Usually a few light beers, Guinness, and an IPA.

You could try a glass of wine with dinner if you want to drink for pleasure.

So anons, here's the thing... I'm with this girl for over a year now, and we are friends since a long freaking time. We've broken up and got back once, and we're currently living together. Thing is, she was raped back when she was a teen, and she went to a gynecologist at the end of 2016 and had one of those invasive exams. So now she says she hasn't been feeling like having sex. She gets tense and all "closed up", if you know what I mean; penetration becomes barely possible. Still, I can't help but feel the urges to have sex with her, but she'll barely let me touch her and makes a big issue out of it. She even said she'd pay a prostitute if I wanna have sex that bad, but she doesn't get the point. I wanna do it with her, and feel her and all that. She's the woman I always wanted, a hooker would never be the same. Worst part is she'll usually walk around naked, and, damn, she has the kind of body that drives me wild. Sometimes when she's sleeping, I just feel like touching her pussy or licking her breasts or whatever, but I don't, 'cause that'd be basically a rape. But it's getting more difficult to maintain the relationship every day. And I almost don't know what to do.

and what'd she say when you told her this?

start there
>>
>>18180407
Usually she'll say she needs some time to try to recover from this "fear of sex", and she was happy when I said I wouldn't break up with her just because of the lack of sex. She was kinda glad when I said I don't want a hooker. But she doesn't get why I find her hot, she's got a low self-esteem since ever.

OP here. During this time, I've been requesting fakeshops, faceswaps and captions at /r/ and watching Felicia Clover's porn videos (they're much alike) to "relief" myself. But it is way not the same as having sex with her.

So I was on okcupid and ended up chatting with a girl who said she was single, but non-monogamous. I was curious about some non-monogamy, but it was really just curiosity at best. Anyway she was pretty fun, conversation flowed easily, etc. I really enjoyed her company. After we hang out a few times, it comes out that she has a boyfriend, but he's leaving for the military in a few months and their relationship essentially has an expiration date. I wasn't wild about the situation, but I agreed to go along with it because she was the first person I thought there was potential with after doing the single thing for a few years.
Fast forward to now, about a month and a half later. I'd told her it would be nice to date someone who wasn't a teetotaler like my last gf, and would at least drink and go out and do stuff with me. She said she didn't really drink anymore, but would do it with me if we just drank at home and skipped the bar scene. That's fine with me, I'm pretty easygoing. However both weekends this was supposed to happen, she's backed out for various reasons. This is after making a semi-big deal about how she struggles with drinking anymore. I'm not really upset about that, but then for some reason she's sent me texts (on two different occasions) telling me about how she's having a great time getting drunk with other people.
This seems pretty crappy to me. I'm not upset about her not wanting to get drunk with me, but after it became this twice-missed out on thing, then her telling me she's out getting twisted with other people just seems kind of disrespectful, and like she doesn't really care about how that information would seem like to me. Honestly I think she should have just said nothing to me, because volunteering that information just seems like a blatant disregard for my feelings, and would only be useful if you're trying to make me feel unimportant.

Nice blog
>>
Honestly, I'm just not sure how I'm supposed to feel at this point. Where before I was ambivalent about seeing how things went, now I'm just downright apathetic. Not to mention that I'm spending most of my free time with her, that I could better be using dating other girls. I'm not in a position where I don't get dates, so this seems like a spot where I'm just poorly using my resources to get what I want (a girlfriend).

I'm just curious what you other anons position on this is?

I've been in college since 2013. I transferred to university this past fall and have had 2 horrible semesters. Just recently been told I failed math yet again. I got myself into 4 classes I hate. I'm 20k in student loan debt. I don't even need a degree to do what I want to do which is writing. I feel like I've wasted time trying to chase something that isn't there. I'm miserable. This isn't what I want but I'm so scared of getting a job like everyone else. I want to sell my books on kindle and promote them on YouTube and podcasts. Basically generate income through 3 avenues. Be my own boss. Not having to worry about co workers stabbing me in the back of saying the wrong thing. My life is being wasted. Im not happy but I know I don't want to be further in debt. Im miserable what should I do?

First time using this board and this is probably gonna sound like a stupid situation but I'd really like to get other opinions on this. So here we go.
My girlfriend and I have been together for 2 years 4 months. Our relationship is great, we never fight, the sex is still great, and we always enjoy each other's company. I've had sex with 2 girls prior to dating her, and I took her virginity when she was 17. She's currently 19 and I just turned 21 a month ago. We've talked about marriage in the next 3 years from time to time, mostly joking about it, never anything serious since it's a bit too early for that in our opinion. She has mentioned from time to time about how she doesn't want to only have sex with one person in her lifetime (if we were to get married and stay faithful of course) She's said that since I've already experienced other partners that it wouldn't make sense to me. (maybe she's right I'm not sure about that) As of right now, I have no intentions to end the relationship and in all honesty hope to marry her in the next 3-4 years and start a family with her. I guess my question is, should I be concerned about her worries of only having sex with one person for the rest of her life? Should I just try to ignore it and keep going with the relationship in hopes of everything working out for us and spend the rest of my life with her?
I can take jokes but legitimate opinions would definitely ease my mind a bit. Any advice is appreciated.

No don't ignore it. She WILL cheat on you and try to act like a victim when it happens. You're both really young and I was in your exact situation not too long ago. I'm only 23 and dated a girl for 4 years and we had similar discussions to yours. You can probably guess what happened.
>>
>>18180287
Thanks man, so what should I do then? Should I talk to her about it? Like explain to her my feelings about it and ask her whether she wants to continue on and stay faithful or can I just not trust her at all? (asking someone on the internet if I can trust my girlfriend lmao nice)

>>18180283
Other girls
>oh how sweet and romantic, i saved myself for you and now i can live with you for the rest of our days.

Your girl
>i want to experience other dicks.

I mean you can try and convince her it's wrong but you can also try to convince a chain smoker it's wrong but in the end their urge and excitement can be of greater value to them than anything else including you.

You can dodge one bullet by taking another, sign up for a threesome.

The past few months I've found myself becoming increasingly irritable, and I don't like it about myself. I don't snap at other people, but once I get alone I will yell, curse, and break my own things. But I occasionally melt down in my car or outside in public briefly, and then feel embarassed about it. But I'm tired of that, and I'm tired of wishing I still had things that I've broken.

What else am I supposed to do with all of this angry energy that I have? I feel like I'm addicted to getting pissed off. I'll find things to get pissed off about, even if there's nothing reasonable for me to be upset about, just so I can release it. But it looks unstable and stupid and I know it, so I want to be able to stop losing my shit every time someone cuts me off in traffic or I see something I don't like on facebook.

I never had this problem to this extent in the past, so I don't know what's changed other than maybe this is how I deal with stress instead of getting sad about it now. I dunno. What do you guys reccommend?

the one time i cheated i told her right away and she stayed with me but i dumped her five months later. i was 18 and really only dating her because she wanted to date me.

fun fact, that girl i cheated on her with happened to walk by me last month, turns out she works by my apartment month, just seven years later randomly ran into each other.

turns out shes seeing a guy and she just cheated on him with me.

No. If I don't love them anymore I'll break up with them. Cheating is shitty.

No, I'm not going to help betray someone.

>If your SO cheated on you would you break up with them?
Yes, my ex did actually. And I broke up with him. Note that I had the same opinions before that happened.
