This is driving me insane, I NEED TO KNOW.
Do I biologically share most of my attributes with my grandmother? I suspect her of having autism.
[spoiler]Is there still hope of finding out even if she's been dead for 2 years?[/spoiler]

Did you skip high school biology? You share a quarter of your genes with your grandmother, just like you do with every other grandparent.
>>
>>18159655
A more advanced class than high school biology will teach you that your mitochondrial DNA comes only and directly from your mother in all cases. And that nearly 100% of the genes for brain development come from the mother aswell. So, if she's on your mother's side, maybe!
>>
She was always introverted and had anxiety issues. In fact her reason for death was a clogged blood vessel in her brain.
I need to know what genes I'm passing on and if I will be healthy at the age of 40.

Where do I find an introverted gf at uni?
It seems all of the girls I meet are outgoing and to be honest pretty superficial.
If not uni, anywhere else?

Have you tried the Introverted Girls Club? Or the IGC as most people call it? It's basically a club of women who gather and sit and wait for guys like you to pick one out to date.

I have serious enemies and problems in my life, but I don't want to just post my backstory here out on a whim, to potentially get doxxed and not even get any real advice out of you, anonymous.

Been lurking here for 8+ more yrs.
Story short: been in love with one single girlf for over 6 years & never been with "her" only as friends nor gifts nor anything helped.
Even when was in relationship with other girl thought of her all the time yet it ended 3 years after and all seemed somewhat Ok.
But now this thing just popped again, how to fucking live now again I have no idea this shit became paranoidal for me.
Even when we are together at parties or like so everyone says as it was ment for us to be together, yet it is not. She has changed bf's multiple times, not including me.
And that fucking feeling like you feel that this is your person is just killing you, any adviced anons?

I gifted a friend a puppy golden retriever and it is really stressing her out.
She lives 5min from work so she has to go home during lunch and walk him. She also can't go to work early/leave late because she feels bad for leaving the dog in his crate.
She has no one to help take care of him and is complaining that it is affecting her work and social life.
What can I do to help? What's some advice about taking care of puppies?
She told me to leave her alone when I asked about how she feels...

Gifting someone a pet is a really bad idea. My mom keeps doing it and every time she ends up having to raise the animal herself or find a home for it.
>>
>>18159513
Did you "surprise" her with it? Constant responsibility for another living being isn't just something you give as a "gift." If she didn't agree to the puppy before you gave it to her, I honestly think you should offer to adopt it from her and take care of it yourself
>>
>>18159588
She went to get it with me.
I hang out with a study group 2x a week and had a huge crush on a guy in it for a while but never worked up the courage to do anything even though I was pretty confident that he liked me too.
It turns out he now either has, or has had the entire time, a semi-long distance girlfriend (she is an ex that I think he got back together with).
That's fine. My crush on him is weakening but still exists.
That's not the issue though. The issue is that another guy in the group has been sniffing around me and I think he's getting ready to ask me out. I'm not interested, and truth be told, I don't want to date anyone in the group that's not this guy I'm crushing on because part of me still hopes something will happen should he and his girlfriend ever break up.
I am willing to date people outside of the group though. I would just feel weird dating someone in this guy's vicinity...I'd be wondering if I was making him jealous. If he and his girlfriend separated, I'd want to dump whoever I was with for him if I thought there was a chance that something might happen. It doesn't seem right.
So should this guy ask me out, what do I say? Do I just tell him the truth? That I have a crush on someone else in the group and don't want to date anyone else in the group?
I do not get asked out often so sorry if this is a stupid question.

guys, what would you want to hear in this situation? i don't want to hurt anyone.

Anyone? I know it's not the most interesting question, but I want to be prepared.

If it was me (f here) is say that I d9nt date friends because you don't want to ruin anything. I did this in work. If the guy you like ends up asking you out and the other guy gets annoyed just make out that you weren't that great a friends to begin with.

I have some incredibly negative and insane ideologies, but I need to express them in such a way that people won't think I'm full of hot air or genuinely insane.
I'd like to read some books on vocabulary, writing style convincing skills.
As well as some psychology on how to manipulate specific groups of people to see it my way.
How do I talk to an introverted dumb personality compared to a slightly more intelligent and very impulsive angry person? How will they react to what I say and how can I bring them to a specific agreement point?

Experiment. Talk with a lot of people. See what works. Be a manipulative bastard. Write a book. Be a guru.
>>
Practice doesn't do me any good if I don't learn and I really need a book to learn.
>>
I need this because 1) I'm sick of everyone calling me an idiot, despite how truthful it is. 2) By everyone I mean including genuine intellectuals I want to approach and discuss at their level, but I'm not that eloquent and intelligent enough from my autism and lack of a quality writing style.

So my boyfriend feels like he's about to be fired from his job of two years, and I need your help /adv/, he feels devastated.
He says new management has made the work environment very (for lack of a better term) toxic, that the new manager has fired several people to bump up profit, which looks good on paper but they're severely understaffed, very disorganized and mean-spirited.
On new years eve I was meant to pick him up at 11:30 to go celebrate, I left my house a little earlier than usual so I could drive slowly in case of drunk drivers, I got there at 11 (thirty minutes before he got off) and so I was waiting in the lobby when his manager told him I couldn't just sit there and that I had to leave, so it feels very personal and vindictive.
My question is, should he quit before he gets fired?
What are his options? What can I do? I feel so unable to do anything.
I wish I could just contact the company and let them know what's going on but they probably hold the manager in high regard so they'd probably just dismiss my complaint.
Thanks for reading all that, I really appreciate your help.

Careful when you complain up the chain of command. It isn't always anonymous and in some places it ends up just going back to the management of the location you're complaining about.
Have him start applying and interviewing elsewhere. It's better to put your fate into your own hands rather than letting the company make the decision for you. Feels a lot better than getting fired too.
If he finds a better job, cool. He can leave that toxic environment and he'll probably be a lot happier for it.
>>
>>18159488
>should he quit before he gets fired?
If he can line up a job before he does, then sure.
>I wish I could just contact the company and let them know what's going on but they probably hold the manager in high regard so they'd probably just dismiss my complaint.
Don't get involved yourself. Just support him.
>>
>>18159488
Make him update his resume/CV and start looking for jobs, if he thinks he is going to be fired, it will be better to find a job and leave, rather than explain to a new potential employer why his last job came to an end.
Networking isn't a bad idea provided you can keep the fact he is looking elsewhere a secret from his managers.
>I wish I could just contact the company and let them know what's going on but they probably hold the manager in high regard so they'd probably just dismiss my complaint.
That's an awful idea, don't even entertain the idea of doing that working in any way, don't even mention the idea to your boyfriend as it will only add to his stress if he thinks you are that stupid.

If you have to ask , it's probably not okay
I'm gonna behave as if I don't give a shit about anyone. Of course, I do, and I'd rather see people happy than miserable or hurt. Still, I am absolutely sick of the overly complicated dysfunction of modern human society. I'm going to act as if I have antisocial personality disorder. Fuck honesty, fuck respect, fuck order, and fuck cooperation. It's, "I, me, mine," from now on, because these stupid pussies (humans) ruined my life.
Thoughts? Advice?

If we all became shit, because others have been shitty to us, an eye for an eye, makes the whole world blind.
Tribulation is essential for growth.

>>18159483
Just because other people are shit, doesn't excuse you for being a shitty asshole. Actions have consequences, no matter what you tell yourself to validate them.

>>18159501
Totally, but you are probably relating this topic to yourself, and not me. You don't know how many years I've spent in Tribulation and how done with it I am.

I would definitely not expect you to excuse me.

This guy thinks I'm a feeder because I talk about food a lot. But I just like food and I'm a curious person about people's diets etc
Anyway, I've never really gotten rid of this perception and he asks me weird questions like do you want me to be a pig and I'm going to fill myself up for you and things like that
What should I do?

He could just be teasing you. Sometimes people give soft-tells about their kinks and it's fun to push buttons. But if you're completely fucking wrong, then it's like whoops. If that's the case it's really easy to get him to cut the shit. Just be like "Seriously that isn't even remotely related to my real fetish...". Whether you have one or not he will start trying to figure out what it is and abandon the fat thing.
The other option is that he is projecting and really wants you to be a feeder. In which case, abort B)

>Be best friends with this dude all through middle school and early high school

>In the year following this we talk and hang out less and less, until we just stop talking altogether
>We've both changed a lot and moved on to different social circles. I become a little more popular and better with girls, he's still kind of a geek from what I can tell

>Only problem is that he has one of my gaming consoles that I lended to him a while ago, really want it back before I go off to college
How do I approach this without being aspie or a douche? I don't want to open the door to befriend him again, but I also kind of want some closure on why exactly we fell out. My theory could be wrong and we just drifted apart naturally, or I could be right and he hates me for all the reasons I listed. But I just want my shit back, mainly.

My boyfriend recently told me that he eats Ezekiel bread. This bread is named after a bible verse. I know it is healthy etc etc but, my boyfriend is an atheist. How the hell can he eat this. I feel I've lost respect for him and just want to end it. Am I overreacting ?

Who cares? I'm an atheist too, but I don't consider it a major component of who I am. I don't think about it daily, I don't try to meet other atheists, I don't eschew things and people that are biblical or religious. If something tastes good and is healthy but has a religious name, I'll eat. If it's something like the Chick Fil A situation, I'll make my own decision.
Atheists that get hung up on being atheists are usually pretty off putting anyway.
