Guys I need some help. My cat who has been with me for 13 years has been diagnosed with a disease that will kill him in 3 short months.
I know what some of you might say "Oh it's just a cat" but he will come in at night and sleep with me, lead me places outdoors, and is always wanting to cuddle when I get home from school.
How do i handle such a loss?
Pic related. Its him

Your cat is very cute, anon. Anyone who comes to this thread to post anything relating to "Oh it's just a cat" should be gassed... With that said, don't let the negativity that could be posted about your cat upset you through this rough time. You've shared a connection and it's difficult to cope with loss of a dear friend [pet]. Please know that this is not goodbye forever and that your cat will be in a better place waiting for you on the other side. Spend as much time as you can with your cat and enjoy the good memories and have no regrets. You've done everything you could and have given your cat a long, happy, healthy life. I wish you all the best and your baby, too.
t. someone who has lost many pets in her lifetime.

It's not at all too late to get an abortion at this stage.
If she doesn't want to, well, the answer to your question is "extremely".
So i quit my job recently because my new manager was a cunt
Been working their for almost 5 years, i thought that experience would make getting a job a piece of cake. A month and a week later im still jobless doing applications. Bear in mind all im doing is trying to find a simple minimum wage job to live.
I dont know what im doing wrong anons. Im thinking its the gay ass questionnaire at the end that fucks me up. Like, how the fuck are you supposed to answer those stupid personal questions? Am i supposed to give an honest assessment of myself? Am i supposed to lie through my teeth and pretend everything is flowers and rainbows? Or does answering like that prove that im a big liar and get my application thrown out? Or am i supposed to cater my questions towards the type of job im applying to?(for example, social outgoing if i want to work directly with people)
I. I just dont know
that's why you don't quit your job. What else were you going to go to?
>18133452
I wasnt the only one who quit, the place lost 10-15 people over the course of 4 months after the cunt came. Even some managers left. Shit wasnt worth some fat cunt watching and criticizing our every move 24/7
>>18133452
that and i forgot to add, i didnt really need the job per se, now i just can have a social life like i used to. Im living at my moms place til i join the military near the end of the year. Just wanted some disposable income
I accidentally got infatuated with a milf who is 43 years old. She is hot, attractive and I was being stupid so I crossed the boundaries and opened up to her. We've been talking for the past 3 weeks, being all romantic and shit.
Now I realize I fucked up. It was just a temporary infatuation.
How do I make her go away without making her sad?
I'm 19
>>18133430
>how do i make her go away without making her sad
find someone more attractive than you and make him niteract with her until they have chemistry and she chooses to leave you.
thats it. really, if there was some normal way to break up without emotions then you'd already know it
She knows anything with you is temporary.
Don't be a faggot, have dem experienced sexes whilst they last.
Life is too fucking short to not take any oppertunity for fun and happiness when it comes along.
Are friends overrated and not needed?
>>18133427
they are actually underrated, they are treated like objects you can discard as soon as a romantic interest walks by.
>not needed?
depends on the person, but on a physical level no friends are not needed, you can live your whole life without them, though it would not be fun 99.999% of the time
>>18133427
I prefer a wide circle of acquaintances to friends. That way you get the company of people without having to commit to anything.
"Friend" is usually an euphemism, OP.
>found first boy willing to have sex with me
>really cute physically and personality-wise
>offering to let me fuck his ass the first time
>also willing to be my first boyfriend
>he's had sex with six people since he lost his virginity three years ago
should i pursue this? the relationship will definitely be temporary but in that space i just want to feel like he's mine and mine alone. unfortunately, i don't think i'll ever really feel that because he's already taken 3 feet of cock.
>tfw we live in the same town but he went to the rich school where all the cute white kids went and i had to go to the poor school with all the blacks
>>18133386
faggot
>>18133386
You're autistic so you missed out on getting a virgin bf when you were younger. Suck it up.
Also don't get AIDS
>>18133393
what do you suggest then
>18 years old, currently finishing up high school
>All the things I used to enjoy aren't enjoyable
>Even my main hobby, music, has been uninteresting for the past few months
>Have little energy, trouble paying attention to things
>Started seeing a therapist and taking walks, but no changes yet
I'm extremely lost. My mother and therapist have convinced me that antidepressants would be fine, but the internet keeps telling me to stay away from them. Anhedonia/apathy is the only symptom of depression I have, but I really don't know how to get rid of it. Will exercise and a good diet actually make life enjoyable again?
>>18133365
i wouldn't. anti depressants can help, but they also come with their own issues, which is why its a last resort.
its kind of like plastic surgery. everything could go wrong and you could be happy, but its often better to deal with issues yourself
>>18133365
I'd say wait a bit. You're finishing high school, so life will change somewhat, no matter what direction you go. Sometimes that can help. Try to introduce some changes it you can, despite the apathy and see if it helps. If it doesn't, then consider meds. Medication, however, is not a solutions in itself. They at best give you the energy to make the changes required for improvement. People who complain about them expect mircale solutions and are dissapointed when it doesn't happen.
>>18133369
From my understanding, since my problem is mild compared to others, the side effects should also be less severe. I'm willing to cope with a lot of bullshit if it's temporary and will help me enjoy life again. Unlike most people, I can't find a source for my problems, and fighting them directly looks impossible. The people in my family tree are really erratic, and I could have definitely gotten a shitty roll genetics-wise.
>>18133382
What kind of changes would you suggest? I know there's diet and exercise, but can they do more than boost your energy level and give you a temporary runner's high?
I am at a lost at what I should do.
I've been dating this guy for 8+ years. Talks of marriage is in the works but I don't know anymore. I really, really love the guy but he has anger issues.
Small things become this big blow out argument that leaves us not talking for a few days, then him apologizing and me forgiving him. I have told him about his anger issues but he refuses to do anything about it.
He has never hit me, but he has pushed me three times, one of those times last night. I'm starting to get a little worried that if he pushes me, would that ever escalate?
He is always quick with the insults too. It's like...0 to 60 with him. It kinda surprises me when it gets so personal because I'm kinda afraid to do that. I can't stand confrontation at all and always bite my tongue. Like an insult is in my head but unless I'm pushed to the brink I never say it. I don't want to make it worse. (Not just with him but in general)
I don't know what to do.
break up wtih him
>>18133340
Leave him.
If he hasn't always been this angry the rage could be from guilt. Either way end it, find someone better.
>>18133340
>but he has pushed me three times
Spaced how between those 8+ years?
If they're isolated incidents that happened between long periods of time, then it would seem that he's able to exert at least enough self-control not to go all wifebeater on you. If it's a more recent development, then it mostly seems like a matter of time.
Pursuing an attractive girl who is interested in you, but has tons of other guys interested in her and you don't have a commitment yet.
Any advice on this? Is it alpha to chug ahead and compete? All attractive girls are going to have options so while it's intimidating it feels like what the natural order of things are.
>>18133339
why worry about whats 'alpha' when literally no one else is going to sit around saying 'WOW ANON I MEAN YOU GOT THE GIRL BUT WHATS IT MATTER SINCE IT WASN'T ALPHA?'
the truth is shes probably not interested in you. if she is just go ask her on a date.
>>18133339
Is she specifically interested in you? Or are you just one of the guys she's playing?
>>18133522
OP is probably another orbiter who thinks he has a chance.
I'm running under a high risk of getting deported back to Russia, because I'm disabled and don't fulfill the revenues criteria because I can't work.
In case if the deportation is confirmed, what would be the best suicide method in terms of effectiveness?
I was thinking of either jumping in front of a train, overdosing on paracetamol and sleeping medication, or setting myself on fire in a public square as a big f*ck you to the administration that deported me.
>>18133335
marriage.
>>18133363
Won't work. I haven't had any friends for a decade: how do you expect me to find a spouse? Plus, I'm way too young for marriage (I'm 21).
Is death really a preferable option to Russia?
I want to go to university but i don't know what to study
I like technology, science, books, exercise, film and music
>>18133318
Combine what you like with what you're reasonably good with and imagine a job that would include those things. Then pick a field according to thar potential job. Studying is mostly shit, regardless of what you study, so set your goals beyond that.
beyond doctor, lawyer or scientist. I guess there's writer, film maker or musician.
I can never see myself doing any of those things. Is something wrong with me?
>>18133318
If you're in the US, the first 2 years of college are mainly required and shop-around courses, specifically to allow you to explore and discover what you want. You can get away with not declaring a major (or declaring one at random and later changing it) until as late as your third year.

Destiny DMCA'd the clip where he says "What's wrong with communism?," because he felt it was taken out of context. I need it right now so I can share it with a friend. Did anyone save it? If not, can someone timestamp it from the JonTron debate?

Who the fuck cares? Genuinely?
Why do you want to get your political views from let's play youtubers?
>>18133320
Jesus christ, I need it to prove a point about how people react to certain things. An anecdotal example won't be as convincing as an actual fucking clip of someone saying X and reacting to Y.
>>18133320
Okay, here's what I was trying to do.

The friend thing was a white lie so I wouldn't get a bunch of "Le Reddit" shitposters, but I'm getting shitposts anyway, it seems.
He comes along with his bright ass fucking idea and makes a complete mess out of what i very carefully calculated would be the most efficient way and he makes 3 times as much work, scrapping everything i had laid out.
i didnt ask for his help, i didnt ask for him to come over and take a look at it. he just come over to check out how things were going and he gets a very dim light bulb over his head and fucks shit up royally. and im left fixing and cleaning it up.
pics to help illustrate what the fuck it is that im dealing with.
Explain to him in detail why your way is better, then do it your way
>>18133255
Do it his way - he's the boss.
Should I get a Nintendo Switch or a nice Wacom animation tablet? I say nice because $300 can get you a higher end one, compared to the $70 ones. Im split between the middle and my paycheck is coming in soon
On a side note, I've never animated before, BUT I really want to get into it. I can pay for Adobe or whatever need be
wacom
Wacom unless you're a die hard Zelda fan
How do I channel my "I want to watch the world burn" energy?
It results from a lack of purpose and my viewpoint of how shallow life is.
>It results from a lack of purpose
What activities in life do you find worthwhile? What goals do you think are worthy of achieving?
Life doesn't have to be shallow. You can give it significance once you answer the questions above.
>>18133214
find some purpose and change your viewpoint on how shallow life is.
