I really need to talk to a therapist. I just need to see someone in person and talk about this without being judged. What do you think the therapist would tell me? I mean as long as we're not making deformed babies, is it really that bad being with your grandfather?

You are broken. Your DNA didn't have the right recipe and now you are some fucked up version of what you should have been.

It's not your fault I guess but you are a problem that should be eliminated anyways. Your genes anyway.

No judgment here. Just facts.

I'm sorry in advance, but no matter where i go i can't find the answer and this is the only place left for me to look.

Can people actually do the thing you see in movies and videogames and anime where someone with a jacket just pulls it out and throws it aside in one fell swoop, without damaging it? Legitimately curious. If so, how?

>implying i'd use my cool guy moves to impress women
nah, i just wanna do it in my room once and feel really cool for like 5 seconds until realization sets in that i'm a virgin loser who will never actually accomplish anything in life

so uh anyone know how to do the jacket thing

We've been engaged for about 6 months, and he's steadily becoming more controlling. He used to be very lighthearted and stuff, but now he's becoming really intense. I'm suddenly not allowed to wear anything at knee height or above (I don't own anything that goes any higher than just above the knee anyway), nothing that's not high necked, no skinny jeans "because I'm going to be a married woman soon".

Everytime I go to work he says "you won't be doing that in 6 months" even though I earn twice what he earns and it would be foolish to give up on my salary.

He won't let me take my birth control because he wants children straight away, even though I've tried to tell him that we're not in a financially stable place at the moment and need to get that in order before having children to give them the best possible life.

He refuses to listen to me or take on board anything I have to say, including that I want to work, don't want children straight away and don't want to be his housewife.

He was never like this before, but I'm really worried. Should I break the engagement? Is this going to get worse?

Not sure if I'm just crazy and paranoid or if colleague hates me to death.
Or a bit of both.
Please help me out and give me some input.

I suffer from anxiety and ADHD and I'm quite erratic and unpredictable. There's shyness and low empathy mixed with flamboyant energy bursts and outbursts.
I'm good at coding and extremely passionate about it though, which saves me.

Anyway - the past week I've noticed that a colleague who used to be nice and up for friendly chit chat seems annoyed with me.
He doesn't initiate conversation anymore, doesn't maintain eye contact, seems to avoid me in general and tries to overshadow me in social situations. That's how I act when someone annoys me and I can't stand them, so.. yeah, that's fine.

But the following makes me question my sanity:
The past week we've been part of the same lunch gang multiple times, but not seated next to each other and I've overheard him say things like during these occasions:
"..Yeah..or bipolar or drugs..."
"..But acting loony like that...from stress?"
"..Mhh..ah but he could hear.."
"There's a bit tension between them.. just saying. Look."
"..Don't hate.. but can't stand him. Just want to stay away"
I've also noticed him and the people he's eating with going completely silent a couple of times while staring at me with a shocked look.

Things that make me believe it's real:
*It feels real.
*The fact that I've been promoted while he hasn't could be angering him and cause jealousy
*His change in attitude
*He's an ex druggie/raver turned straight edge health freak with far out spiritual beliefs - cray warning

Things that make me believe I'm imagining things:
*No idea what I could've done to piss him off and obsess with me
*I've had similar experiences before where I keep hearing my name everywhere at work and I'm convinced they are plotting and spreading rumors
*It seems unlikely that he would trash talk me in front of a group multiple times, when I'm nearby

What do you think?

Dude first of all I am you. Down to personality. Second of all this happened to me. But to the point where local businesses folks and my family and old friends and gf and brother and dude I know that got shot were all involved. Lol perks of a small town. I thought I was gonna get locked up. Then I realized I need to be locked up for a bit. Dude it's real. It was for me too. Then drugs and a psychotic depression linked with repreced guilt (diagnosis post paranoia) took hold.

Basically the level of drama in my life (and america in general) got so harsh I went insane people noticed and it got more and more exaggerated.
I tried and tried talking it out. Figuring our who did what. Who said which thing. I started noticing things that definably didn't happen. My mom woke !e up, told me she didn't believe I was going crazy (because everyone thought I was making stuff up I think I still am not sure.) And aiad I just need to clean my room. I confronted her. Totally didn't happen. Lots of other stuff started. Literally dude literally constant synchronicity and metaphors. Literal and metaphorical literally became the same things.

I am an African-American and I've recently been redpilled by /pol/. Now I feel like I am and absolute waste of space and that no matter what I do or what I accomplish in life, I will always be a lesser being. It's kind of bad enough I've had an inferiority complex BEFORE browsing /pol/. How do I stop feeling like an inferior being?

You are black. By pure statistic you are better at various sports, more resistilent against diseases and a LITTLE dumber and more likely to do crime (due to shit family upbringing).

But do you know what statistic is? A game with heavy datasets. Determine what you want from life and act like it. Being black cant stop you following your dreams. The racist era is long gone.

Your only enemy whose holding you back is yourself.

And stop going to boards intended for hardened mature people. Try something safer next time

As a black male, I can honestly say that I fear dating any women really. I feel like I am not "black" enough to date black women or any other minority race of woman. I just don't have that black guy swagger that so many girls crave.

My friends say I am basically "white guy lite" which to me means why would a girl date me when she could just date a white guy and not have to worry about stigma?

My friends say if they never saw my face, they would never know that I am a black guy. I am full black too. I don't feel mulatto or look mulatto. You can blatantly tell I am full black.

What am I to do? I am 28 now and still have not managed a successful date. I am running out of time. I didn't realize just how weird dating is if you are a minority male.

Female minorities are super weird too. Like dating to a Puerto Rican girl from the Bronx and dating to a black girl from the Bronx is like night and day. It's weird. Probably a urban thing more than a race thing.

Don't let society pressure you to be something you aren't. Tons of minorities go through what you're experiencing. "You're black but you don't ACT black" is just a bullshit way of saying "I think all black people should act a certain way"

The reality is that we are all different people and we don't all correspond to racial/social archetypes.

It's a corny cliché, but that doesn't mean it's not good advice: just be yourself man. Whenever people say shit like that to you, tell them you resent it. It's fucking dumb and look, it's got you feeling insecure about your skin color for no reason.

Just act however feels natural to you. Fuck people's expectations. You shouldn't let other people define your identity.

Have you tried any online dating, OP? Lot easier to find more accepting people online, and if you spend the most of your time chatting via online text, then they'll spend a lot more time getting to know your personality (as long as you aren't trying to fake your way into a date with a cute person). Then if you click, and if you've been spending a decent amount of time chatting online (voice or not), they'll be much easier in accepting your appearance and personality not stereotypically matching.

So three weeks ago the guy that rents a room from my house lost his job. "No big deal," he says, "I'll drive Lyft to make up the cash while I search for jobs."

This would be fine, but the guy hasn't picked up a SINGLE ride in three weeks, and told me today that he just spent his last money paying a speeding ticket, and that he's unsure if he wants to go pick up riders tonight "because he kind of wants to go hang out with his girl."

I tried to casually suggest that he could make great money tonight because it's Friday night in Vegas and tons of people are getting in town to party, but he kind of shrugged and went upstairs to play PS4 and drink more soda.

I want to yell at him -- but the one hitch is that as of today, I'm unemployed too. (Quit my job, don't start a new one for another month, but the difference is I have tens of thousands of dollars in the bank.) He might accuse me of the pot calling the kettle black when I'm not doing anything, but I need this fucker to start making some money and not just sitting in the house.

I went on a tinder date with a beautiful asian girl. we matched the day before, she was responding fast with complete sentences (you know it's uncommon on tinder). She asked me if she we can meet that same evening.
At the bar I was shy and awkward, she was beautiful, smiling and laughing a lot. we complimented each other for our looks and she encouraged me to drink more so that I loosen up.
At one point I thought that she was just messing with me and trying to break my heart, but at the end, arriving back from the bathroom, she had paid all our drinks. I walked her home and kissed her goodnight. She told me that I will have to play ''hard to get'' because that will make her more interested in me.
my question is: how do I play 'hard to get' without being some kind of asshole? Is this a sign of trouble? She already texted me back saying that I need to be a bad boy, I teased her a little bit then stopped responding. now we haven't communicated for 40h.
She gave me more than enough signs of interest (and I feel very fortunate for that), but what if she gets bored by my silence?

What's the problem exactly?
>>
>>18177392
I hope you will understand, since I have a poor english.

It's been my first and I was his (so lot of mistakes happended), we met when we were 16/17 and he was really alone, builled as a child and didint go to school after 12. At the beggning, he was doing everything for me (my hobbies etc) then the relationship became really serious (about a year) and I started to see that except being with me, talking to me, playing he wasnt doing much for him, when I was not here, he was doing pretty much nothing and didint know how to live his life whitout me. But now its been 3 years and we're pretty happy, and he's far away from what he was before its been a harsh period, we were arguing everyday, I couldnt stand him but we worked this out and i'm really happy with him now.

Now, he got hobbies and everything hes really confident etc but I think there is a little bit left of it,. When we argue, I'm always the one who is "right", its always his fault when we're arguing (wich is not true) i'm really straightforward and tactlessly, even If it's rare, I don't want to be this way with him, like i'm not nice and I dont know when I'm doing too much since he dosent tell me anything. When there is somehting like this, he completly forgets his feelings, he said, just today that it was hurting him but he didint care and forget it quickly that because he couldnt be mad at me, and he said it's because he loves me too much.

now I just do not want to hurt him, I feel like i'm his mother. I just want him to do and say what he wants when there is a problem, or not and not just follow everything, I feel like i'm stopping him from being the way he wants because he's focusing tooo much on me. And its putting pressure on me because I never know if i'm doing the right thing etc.

I probably forgot some points, I hope it make sense.

I'm currently 20 years old.

I've no desire to do anything in this world. There seems to be nothing worth working toward.

I can't solve the morality of having children, and I can't force myself to bring life into a planet where most human beings exist to suffer. I see so much shit and hear too much to say this world is worth while.

It's all built on a fundamentally broken system that's so far from how human beings evolved, and there's no way out but suicide.

I see people that realize this and some have kids anyway.

I intend to blow my head off when my mother dies if I never see a reason to bring life into a fucked-up world.

30 year old guy here that's had an issue with erections for a few years now. I'm 5'11, 180, and an alcoholic that faps too much, but I've been sober and on nofap for three weeks and can still barely get a semi.

Around 27 I got a girlfriend and I just couldn't get it up for her. I assumed it was her... as we dated she put on weight, didn't move right, just wasn't my type physically, I was nervous, I don't know what it was. I dumped her. For the next couple months, I could only get hard for a girl that was like a legit 10/10, and two other girls, my cock just like... wouldn't work. I started to panic, and then just got fat and nothing worked.

So my sex life has been dead for years, and I'm basically afraid of sex now, and haven't even bothered to hit on girls anymore because I can't satisfy them in bed anymore.

Is Cialis/Viagra my only hope? I have no blood pressure issues or health issues but I don't want to talk to my doctor about this because even though it's illegal he talks to my family about my health issues.

why in the world does your doctor talk to your family if you're 30?

do you experience a lot of stress at work, do you have a fetish that makes it difficult to get aroused?
>>
>>18177304
To make your dick work again you have to
>solve health problems
stop stress
stop alcohol
stop being fat
start doing some sport like swimming
>solve mental problems
stop thinking about your dick
stop fapping
stop porn
stop overthinking problems
stop stress

Also you are 30. So you cant be horny teen anymore. Solve your life first and dont worry about your dick.

Once you get morning erections you are ready for girl physically. Then you have to lose the stress and you are good to go.

Also change doctor.

For the first time in my life, I'm financially stable. Not making shitloads of money, but through a combination of decent pay and years of habitual minimalist living, I don't worry about money anymore. The job is pretty easy, too.Now that I don't have that intense existential angst over merely surviving, I have no idea what to do with my life.

I have a beautiful girlfriend and I love her very much, but things still feel purposeless. I'm saving for a house now, I guess? It's not that I'm unhappy in any way - I have a good enough life - but I'm missing that drive to live, the joie de vivre, you know?

What's the point? What keeps you going?

>>
>>18177260
The drive to live comes from a desire. Look for another goal. To start with, find out why it feels like purposelessness feels bad to you. Why should things have a purpose? Meditate, go without some things you normally enjoy from time to time and study how it affects you.

That's what keeps me going, the "why". Once that why is answered, in theory, there really is nothing left to do.

Some good books are: Mindfulness in Plain English, or The Collected Teachings of Ajahn Chah. I found Franny and Zoey useful too, but that might be too specific to my life.

My boyfriend mentions his ex girlfriend 2-3 times a day. It bothers me a lot.

Should I ask him to stop or will I inevitably sound psychotic? Is it wrong to feel this jealous?

She was his ex fiancé, and she cheated on him. They broke up 2 years ago.

Do I really need to help him get over his ex girlfriend? Shouldn't he be over her before dating me?

I was exposed to dangerous pesticides for about 24 hours 2 years ago and my lungs have been damaged ever since. It's not getting better, but it's not getting worse too quickly. Doctors thought it was asthma at first and prescribed an inhaler but it hardly does any good.

I consulted Dr. Google the other day and I'm worried that I have lung scarring or lung cancer or something, and most people with pulmonary fibrosis don't make it past 5 years because of respiratory failure. Like I said, that happened 2 years ago. It's not like I'm a completely healthy person who got a headache and assumed that I most definitely have brain cancer, I have legitimate reasons to be concerned.

The insurance situation is complicated. I lost my Medicare in November and Medicaid keeps fucking up and dragging their asses. I already feel like complete fucking garbage because I can't take the medication already prescribed to me for my fibromyalgia, mental illness, chronic pain, fatigue, etc.

I'm a 24 year old pre-op trans man anon with plenty of health problems already who only has friends on the internet, and my life has been full of suffering. Feels bad, man.

My ignorant dad misused pesticides to try to get rid of bedbugs. He used one of those pest strips that you're supposed to put in unoccupied/vacant houses to keep pests out and it's strongly recommended that you don't breathe that shit for more than 4 hours. It definitely did not solve our bedbug problem but we eventually got rid of them using something else.

Ever since the incident, it seems like I have to work harder to breathe and sometimes I have to take a lot of deep breaths if I'm not getting enough air. My lungs kind of hurt when I breathe (maybe a 1 on a 0-10 scale) and ever since I got over the flu in September/October, I've had a persistent cough. I feel like it might be related. Also, I can no longer run/overwork myself without getting really out of breath, or deal with people smoking around me. Recently, I've been feeling more and more fatigued than usual and I spend a lot of time laying in bed.
