Before I die my goals are.
>Produce one major philosophical work to the world
>Produce one major mathematical work to the world
>Produce an extremely popular fantasy series
>Produce an extrmely popular video game series
>Make a major technological innovation
>Run a successful tech bussiness.
I know it's wacky to believe this is even possible, however, please humor me.
What would It take for someone to do this? How should I go about doing this?
I have alot of free time and access to extremely smart and weathly people btw.

It takes many people a lifetime worth of work to do even one of these. Every one of these things is difficult and time consuming.
Why are all your life goals about making things that are popular/useful to society? You can have goals just for your own sake too.

So you want to be a Renaissance Man in 6 highly specialized fields and developed fields in a time where every occupation is more specialized and time consuming than ever.
I guess you should start by double majoring in Philosophy and Math. You're going to need a PHD in both to even attempt the first two.

Try focusing on one at a time, just know that one might just take your lifespan.

Long story short: I'm a college student who works at my grandparent's house because it has a quiet room with good acoustics. I've tried to relocate, but I've struggled to find a comparable sound room and the school denied my request to used their professional studios.
My problem is that I've been working at my grandparent's house for over a year and in the last month my grandma has gotten frightfully clingy and creepy. Its so bad that its negatively effecting my happiness and my work. She recently admitted that she has no idea how old I am. I'm almost 22, but she treats me like I'm 7.
For example.
>Grandma demands "huggies from my big boy" when I arrive, when I leave, if I spend the night, before she goes to bed, and at random. I've tried to tell her no but she says I'm not allowed in the house until she "gets her huggie."
>Grandma always acts surprise when I arrive despite that I've been there 2-4 times a week for the last year.
>Grandma touches me as much as possible. Grabbing my arm, hand, rubbing my back, etc. Whenever this happens there's always a "We're so glad to see our big boy!" or "Its nice to have you here." Again, I'm there 2-4 times a week, every week.
>If Grandma finds me on my computer in the kitchen, she'll stand over my shoulder, silently watching me and touching me until I'm done.
>In addition to random touching, Grandma will try to tickle me (armpits and ribs) while I'm working on my computer. I've told her to stop, but she doesn't.
>If I every decide not to go to work, Grandma calls me in a panic.
>A few weeks ago, I walked into town for lunch. Grandma was napping when I left. I come back and Grandma is on the phone with the police, reporting me as a missing person.
Etc, Etc, Etc
I've tried to be respectful, but she won't take no for an answer and it keeps getting worse. I can't stop working because I have contracts with a number of people right now. I'm honestly afraid of her clinginess at this point and I don't know what to do.

Your grandma sounds like she either wants your dick or she has some mental issues. Where's your granddad? Does he never spend time with her?
Just get some friggin egg boxes and tape them to your walls at your own home, i'm sure it'll dampen the sound somewhat. Or buy noise cancelling headphones. Why do you need a room with good acoustics, unless you are a music student?
>>
>>18169242
I'm a voice actor. I need a quiet room where I can record narration in. My voice goes through the walls (my roommate complained) at my apartment and the university denied my request to use their actual studios.
My granddad is always there. He's pretty quiet these days and spends most his time watching the news or eating candy. He's hard of hearing and she's very controlling of him.
She'll say
>Do you need a nap, dad?
>No no. I'm fine.
>I think you need a nap, dad. You're not feeling well.
>Oh. I guess I could use a nap.

I'll give long background of my cousin:
I have a female cousin who're living with me for 10 years and still here. She's 24, still single, and as far as I know never had a boyfriend/long term relationship.
I can tell, since she's never going out in weekends, and all these years the number of times she's going out can still be counted with my fingers.
She's clumsy, often make sullen looks if something not going her way, she's slow, and tunnel-visioned in working, constantly acting like she's hiding something from others/lying.
She never really open up herself to me, or our families, the one she opened up was our housemaid, and her own sister (my other cousin).
6 months ago she was almost get demoted and kicked to faraway state due to her poor work performance (she was brand executive on food product) and got her salary cut, but before it could happen she resigned.
Until this day she still won't talk to us what happened there. We only know it's because of her poor performance thanks to my mom's friend who works there.
After that, she tried to apply for job to numerous place only to get rejected, failed the test/interview.
The last job she got as brand exec is thanks to my mom's connection there. She'd never got the job without my mom's.
The positives I could add is she's a good kid who's still helping with chores and cooking.
She's not fat, but she's close to skelly mode atm, and she doesnt have an hourglass figures. Her ass and bust are almost flat.
Face is average, my male friends told me if it's only based on her face, they would consider dating her. I don't know they're honest or not.
The problem is, I'm really worried about her future. She doesn't seem to be able to form a good relationship with others, I suspect that's how she's still single till today.
If she become a cat lady, it's going to be an embarassment for my family, and of course I don't think it's a good future for any woman.
Is there any way I could do to help her with?

Sorry lol, was just curious. Funny how i can tell right away.
I totally relate, i have someone in my family who i feel similarly worried about. Unfortunately i also havent found a solution. You say she opens up to her sister, have you tried discussing it with her? At the very least she has 2 people she could connect to, my family member doesn't really connect with anyone.
I've seen withdrawn people respond well by mixing with kind and outgoing people who invite them out to things, but i guess it's a catch 82 with your cousin since she can't make friends like that being the way she is.

What if I harassed a family online for the last few years?
I sent a physical letter to their address. last week.
One of them made fun of me a few years ago. I kinda just tell them sad things about my life,
It's gotten to the point where I've just come from sleeping in my car and I have a place to sleep now. But I get high and I send the messages. It's not a sober thing.
Should I just kill myself?
I feel ashamed of it when I do it.
Should I go to the police?
I don't want to hurt anyone. I just want to not have to lie about being a good person, I secretly harass people with my problems.
Everyone would avoid me?
I don't particularity think differently of them. But they know the bad things like being homeless, or my dad hit me.
I'd be happy if they just said, 'It's ok we're not making fun of you'

Certainly don't kill yourself. Maybe cut back on the drugs

>>18168473
Highschool one kept starting at me.
Harassment was about 1ce a month message on their tumblr for about 3 years.
I took Tramadol and cut my arm and sent pictures and stuff like that about 3 months ago.
That's when she turned off her Tumblr asks.
For the last 3 months I made about 6 facebook accounts and just sent random messages.
I don't think they're threatening but the really don't know me so there's that.
I don't know why I never stopped messaging her tumblr, but then again why she wouldn't just fucking turn off her asks is beyond me.
>>
I worry, what are people saying about me and stuff.
I have 0 idea how they've reacted to any of that
I got told I have aspergers but I've been told not to 'hide behind that'
It probably ALL was fine but I've come along and said
'I have all these issues, these are a list of sad things that happened to me, please don't make fun of me'
And by doing that i's worse than it was.
My dad was in Vietnam

Hormonal anticonceptions will
>kill your libido
>weaken your period
>almost eliminate period pain
>make you more fat
>potentionally make you less fertile
>and other very funny side effects but it is rare
If i was the girl i wouldnt touch hormonal based ones even with a stick. But i am just a boy who cant get pregnant so i can talk bravely.
On the other hand there are other methods. Consult your doctor and remember some docs recommends procedures where they get the best cut.
>>
>>18168432
I've been on hormonal birth control for about four years and I like it. You can mitigate weight gain by not eating like a fat retard and it basically eliminated my acne and period pains. My period is also 100% predictable now.
>>
>>18168432
Birth control is not natural. It offsets your natural ability to cleanse your body. Sure, now it's ok because you're young and your body can handle it but think further in life. It can kill your ability to have a healthy child. By healthy I mean as in growing at a regular not irregular rate. Brain cell growth, eye cell and vital organ growth. Just something to think about.
I was with my gf for 7 years and she never got pregnant because my pullout game was on 100! He probably just wants to nut in you for the feeling. Which u still can get pregnant even in birth control and there's an even higher chance your baby will be deformed because of the birth control trying to kill it but not succeeding.. ijs

When i first started we were friendly with each other but for some time she started treating me differently. She's a cool supervisor and everyone thinks shes fun but when i try talking to her she wont even look at my direction. She would be smiling and laughing, i'd walk up and next thing she'd completely turn dull and wont even look at me if i talk to her but if someone addresses her she'll at least faced them. She'll have a detailed conversation with me but the entire time she'll face away from me and its like i'm talking to a wall. Lastly, not often but sometimes she'll kinda act bothered or mad at me when i didnt do shit which really ignores me.
I feel shitty and it doesn't help she's my supervisor and i have to talk to her when i don't even know what i did to her. The only thing i can think of is that her bf works in the same building and maybe he doesn't like me. I'll say im generally liked and respected even among other supervisors although i look serious / mad all the time and i'm overly confident to the point of being kinda arrogant, i'm not self aware and i'm sarcastic so sometimes i unintentionally sound like a jerk, but once people get to know me they always like me. Maybe she thinks i'm just as an asshole? Or rumors?
Overall its not really a big problem but it's still an annoyance that i'm not sure how to deal with. I'd like to get back on good terms with her but idk how. Would it be a bad idea to confront her and straight up confronted her? Thoughts?

You sound just like this one guy at my office. He's really self-absorbed and says he's been told that his overconfidence translates to arrogance (a shock to no one but him). He thinks everyone likes him but most people except his really naive gf and some very superficial people find him annoying.
If you're anything like that guy people (her included) probably find you irritating and or it's further validated by other people talking about your behavior.
>>
If you say you've been arrogant, not self aware and sarcastic, yeah maybe that's your problem. You might have been rude and she took note of it. Maybe be less of that. People's impressions can change over time, be less of a dick and eventually that's how you'll be seen.

Made out with a drunk girl over the weekend, but she had a bf
Went to a party a few days ago, met this girl there. She was with a guy earlier who seemed pissed off and soon left. Then she came and played pong with me and started flirting with me big time. After that she was holding my hand and sitting on my lap. She told me her bf was there earlier, but he was "being a bitch boy" so she dumped him and made him leave. Then a while later we were outside on the porch, nobody was around she jumped my bones and started making out with me. It got pretty intense. She paused to put her number in my phone, then continued kissing me.
Next day, i texted her saying it was nice meeting her and she never replied. Her friend told me it's because she never actually broke up with her bf, she was just mad at him.
How do i take this? Should i feel ashamed that it was the liquor talking, or should it be a confidence boost that she picked me in a house full of guys trying pretty hard to get with her? (I really wasn't, i just rolled with it all)
She must have feel ashamed the day after, which kind is kind of a letdown after how hot and heavy she got with me. I'm not sure if this experience should make me feel a little more at ease when approaching girls, or if it was just a big drunken mistake and i'm not really that attractive. She was pretty cute.

On one hand let it boost your confidence and don't overthink the situation but also know many women in relationships manufacture a reason to be pissed at their bf to give them a free pass for a night.
Let this go. If anything feel sorry for the bf she made an absolute fool of and humiliated and everyone knows it.
>>
>>18168343
Tell the boyfriend, and forget everything else. The only thing to be ashamed about is putting so much thought into a drunken encounter with a floozie.

>>18168380
Don't know the boyfriend, but i suppose you're right. I just don't get out much, and i've never had a girl be so forward with me.

secretly ex-Muslim but family doesn't know, so I have to pretend and shit, because I know they'll never understand..
Especially my step-dad and his anger management issues.
I'm waiting until I am independent before I'm comfortable telling them, cause I don't wanna stir up trouble or get kicked out of the house.
I gave up trying to persue an art/design career because (apparently drawing anything living or resembling a living things means going straight to the (7th) deepest pit in hell.) and my parents will never let me.
honestly I'm getting tired of this shit
what would you do if you were in my place

Well, about being independent and getting a house before telling them is nice plan.
And can't tell you much but IIRC, muslims still do other nice art as well, so you COULD tell them about that muslim mosque art that isn't on living things.
IMO it's nice desu, especially as a mathfag.
Sorry I can't tell you about the problems about your family though, but maybe some other anon will help you.
Also you draw nice.
Oh and have you considered some tablet? Or you don't have privacy? Since drawing on paper while you live with your parents could be really dangerous.
And I'm going to sleep but I hope the thread will be up when I'm awake.
>>
>>18167856
I have 0 privacy, I asked if I could buy tablet with own money, but still got super rejected
>>
>>18167841
Im a bit in the same situation, I have much more freedom but I wouldnt risk bringing a girlfriend home a sth like this.
Do you know what type of man your local Imam is? If hes fairly reasonable (more reasonable than your step-dad is easy) go with your family to him and ask him about your situation.
But you really have to get a house to be independant, otherwise they will always treat you like a child.
By the way nice Kat drawing.

Honestly, I consider myself average looking at best. I'm not social at all. Most of the time I'm in the front of my computer. I don't work out and I'm overweight. I don't look fat but once I rise my shirt there is quite the belly.
When I was younger and tried to get "the girl" she literally told me to go die and that she felt like puking.
Okay, maybe I look more "manly" since then but honestly it's a mystery to me.

How do I drop out of college, marry my 29 year old boyfriend (im 19), move into his house and get pregnant/be his housewife without my parents wanting to disown me? they basically forced me to go to college, I never wanted to. Ive always wanted to be a housewife/homemaker. I can provide more details/answer questions if needed.

You dont need to.
You sound clearly out of your depth.
You're 19, you're not even an adult. You genuinely do not know what you want.
And it is gross you're dating a 29 year old, unless he is mentally handicapped in terms of maturity or isnt seriously considering a long term relationship with you.
The obvious answer is to have a serious discussion with your boyfriend about wanting to move in and potentially have his child. Any other route like trying to sneakily and intentionally get pregnant without his knowledge or discussing it with him would make you an outright shitty person in any scenario.
>>
>>18167589
hes the one that wants me to get pregnant right now, i told him my parents would disown me and that he would need to marry me first. he is very finacially stable, college degree, salary+commission job. same values, religion, and ive never loved someone as much as this. hes ready to get married as soon as i want.
>>
>>18167589
Get fucked, son.
I'm 29, and when I was 18, my gf and I moved in yogether and took care of ourselves. Parents hated us but it's what we wanted - independence and to live our own lives.
You're gonna make mistakes no matter where the fuck you are, or how old the fuck you are. Might as well live by your own standards. We got married for a few years and decided we weren't destined to be, so got divorced and are still friends. I'm her childs godfather now. I have literally zero regrets.
Knowing how I was at 18, if I met an attractive enough (personality, body, etc) 29 year old female, I definitely would have been willing and capable of making it work, assuming we were both patient. Believe it or not, some humans still acknowledge their instinct to flee the nest and start their own lives instead of being crippled by overconvenience from parents.
Op, you can take college classes whenever you want. You just won't get the "dorm life, banged out slut who lies about how many guys she slept with" experience. Employers do not give a shit as long as you have the degree - if you even decide you want to work at a later date. You are only trying to live an existance that comes natural to human females, and I applaud you for having the bravery to do what feels natural nowadays, instead of just what society is yelling at you to do.

I have been texting a girl I met a week or so ago and things seemed to be going well, until I said this. I sent this last message last night when we were talking around 1:00AM and then she stopped replying. It's well into the next day so I am sure she has seen it. Did I scare her off? I don't feel like what I said was that bad, it's not like I told her some vulgar shit.

Did a thread last time asking on whether or not to quit my £8-an-hour-moving-boxes job where they've cut overtime continuously while keeping the same workload. Seems like everytime the beautiful people from head office come in, our overtime gets smaller.
Quick recap:
>shit job, shit pay, shit hours
>want to just walk out
>have 2 months in savings
>a 2.2 maths degree from 2011
>corporate progression is a completely different chain to retail progression in the same company
Responses were mixed but leaned towards keep job while looking for another one.
I've come to a compromise and have taken my holidays early, and was wondering how would I get into the IT industry since it SEEMS like it's one of the few areas that relies mainly on skill/merit? What would be a good place to start?
(To me it seems that city-type careers have a social component to them, I mean, all the city workers I see are fucking drunk every night. What the fuck are they doing that they can come in barely sober and not get fired?)

As someone in corporate that's worked on the front lines before, it's really corporate's job to limit overtime and bring in additional employees if overtime is a recurring thing, or identify efficiencies that can be made to stop it from happening.
But yeah, look for something else if you can, while you have this job. With your limited resources at the moment in terms of training, it wouldn't be a great idea to walk out in frustration unless things REALLY get overwhelming.
As far as city workers go, you learn to handle your liquor. You hit happy hour for a couple of hours, go home, sleep it off, and repeat. In my office, it's a well known fact that everyone is basically a problem drinker and that as long as you're coming in and taking care of your shit, it's acceptable. Not like we're talking to customers or anything.
I took tequila shots at 1 PM in the afternoon with my boss and a vendor in her office on a Wednesday once.

So this qt girl(8/10) has been giving me this big smile whenever we pass each other coming or going to classes. This has been going on for a couple months. I finally sacked up and said hello to her today.
>Hey are you in one of my classes?
> She pauses for a second
>no I just see you coming and going from my class
>I introduce myself and she introduces herself
>we shake hands
>I tell her she's really cute and I would like to get to know her
> she smiles and tilts her heady to the side
>her beautiful dark hair falls down past her head
>I ask her for her number
>she says okay
> I search my pockets for a pen
> she says she has a pen
> I find a pen and tell her I have one
> I get her number
> Tell her I have to go to class
> I say nice meeting you
>she says nice meeting you anon
>she goes to her car and i go to class
>I'm walking on sunshine for a good 30 minutes
She's the second girl I've gotten a number from after asking about 10 girls out. The first girl didn't really workout, although she still gives me a big smile when I see her. I don't really know how to proceed as I haven't actually gone out on a date before (unless you count meeting up to have sex).
So, I'm going to text her my name later today. Now should I just ask her out or should I text her for a little while before I ask her out?
Please help me. I am confident once we are on a date she will like me, but I don't know how to go about setting up a date. If I should just ask her out to coffee or should I banter a bit and then ask her out.

Is there anything i can physically do to make my body stop releasing all these stupid chemicals that make me get stupid crushes all the time, into my bloodstream? It's painful and i'm sick of it.

Wanna stop having crushes? Go out more, have fun, and meet girls. Socially active people don't get crushes.

Fap more. Already doing too much of that? Then what you lack is self control.
