Makes me feel like he doesn't care about being married to my mom or her issues and he doesn't care about our family issues.


I think he his cheating but I just don't know.

That's because he doesn't care. If he did, he wouldn't be doing this. What's your living situation like? If your mom is unhappy, and he's not willing to work on the relationship, you're both better off leaving him.
>>
>>18106422
We live in a upper class neighborhood, although we live in his grandfathers house. Grandpa is still alive but we have to take care of him.

My mother said she would have left him but since she is a christian and the bible says that that unbeliever should depart first she says she will keep her vows before God and honor her word.

I think he doesn't care about any of us he just wants what he wants that's all.

>>18106404

At the end of the day this is not really any of your business. The well-being of your parents' marriage can't be your responsibility.

Your mother and father are grown people with the capability of controlling their own lives and doing with it as they see fit. I'm not telling you you aren't allowed to take sides or be supportive but its not healthy, nor is it really appropriate for you to be so involved in the ins and outs of their marriage.

If they want to fix it, they will. If they don't, they'll split up. Either way, its your responsibility as the child to live your life and better yourself and their responsibility to leave you out of it and prevent the consequences of their decisions to fall onto you.

I'm a fair-skinned white guy very much attracted to black, Latina, Asian, and middle eastern women, but never white women with extremely rare and few exceptions like Mila Kunis or Kat Dennings, and even then I'd prefer an equally beautiful woman of another race Could there be an underlying issue that I should look into, or does it matter?

Why would there an issue? A beautiful woman is a beautiful woman, and god knows there's some gorgeous brown skinned women out there like in your pic.

Do you.

Interracial dating and sex are fun. I doubt people on here would give white girls so much grief for fucking black guys if they'd ever had sex with someone of a different race. But that would imply that they'd ever had sex
>>
>>18106129
interracial dating and sex is indicative of mental illness. I would recommend a pyschologist.

I need thoughts on kicking out my manchild roommate, to replace him with our old roommate that moved out because of him.

>Live with roommate, let's call him B, for 8 years
>Awesome dude and one of my best friends - clean, quiet, no drama
>Have a couple of shittier roommates through the years but nbd
>New guy, J, sucks
>Collects toys, doesn't clean, doesn't pay rent on time, says he'll do what we say, doesn't
>But I kept him around because he used to travel 2-3 weeks a month, so putting up with just a little of him for 1/3rd of the mortgage is cool
>He's too messy though, B gets an offer from his dad to move into his old house for free while his dad moves to Thailand
>Now I'm 100% covering B's rent
>J won't split the rent down the middle, can't find a new roommate
>B's dad suddenly has to move back home, B doesn't want to live with his dad, says he'll move back in with me and pay more if I kick out J

J's a nice guy, just immature, and he doesn't have much of anywhere to go. He doesn't have a a signed lease, but hasn't done anything to fully warrant kicking him out. His feelings are going to be very hurt if I tell him B doesn't like him, and I prefer B over him.

What do I do?

are you responsible for you, or are you responsible for him?
>>
>he doesnt have a lease
Then kick his ass out

If you really want to be diplomatic try to get B to come back under the condition that J do <agreed upon concessions> or J is out

Don't pay double rent because of fee fee's. That the guy wouldnt go half on the mortgage tells me he's an asshole

Hi. I'm an intern in a consulting firm but I graduated last December and my internship has no end date. It started on January 3rd of this year. I want to work here but I'm not sure what to do.

My boss is only here 2 days a week and the office is entirely self-directed. I have virtually no work to do 90% of the time despite very frequently telling others in the office that I have time and would like to work on a project for them. When I was first hired, the HR messed up and made me a regular hire instead of an intern and this was only just changed last week, so I don't know whether to be concerned about it. I currently receive full benefits of regular employees and a 401k, and reimbursements for expenses, but the difference is that I'm paid hourly (with a ton of self-reported overtime) instead of salaried (with bonuses).

Should I just wait out a few more months or something? Should I wait until mid-April or something and then approach the boss to ask him whether I can move out of the intern position?

>>18105870
Ask ASAP. Your position is very precarious.
>>
>>18105875
What do you mean?

What should I ask exactly?

When I spoke to the boss originally, after about 2 weeks of working here, he simply said that he wanted me to try it out here as an intern for a while before he would hire me as a regular because he hired 2 people as regulars in the past and they were terrible fits with the company so he is being more cautious. I said ok and agreed to keep working as an intern.

Now that it's been a little over 2 months I was considering waiting just a little more, like til mid-April and then bringing it up with him again.

It's just that I have no communication with anybody all day here and have seen the boss twice in 2 months. It's as if nobody knows I'm here.

Should I just walk in his office and say I have just a few questions if he has any time? Or rather should I send him an email asking to meet and discuss some things with him whenever he has time?

Been with the same girl for 5 years as of the 23rd. We've been pretty great together and totally dedicated. Problem is she wants to wait till marriage until we... You know. However I'm not only flat fucking broke at 20 years old and can't/ don't wanna marry atm and I'd like a more physical relationship. She's ridiculously shy and locks up when faced with the subject of sex in any way. How do I go about approaching the topic to her respectfully? She sure as hell ain't gonna fall for shit pickup lines.

If she hasn't decided to put out in 5 years, that's fine, that's her choice.

It's also your choice to be with someone who will open up sexually.
>>
True enough but sexuality isn't a deal breaker for me. Its just something I want to get into and explore before settling down with her. Not leaving her over it but it's a difficult topic to approach with her.
>>
>>18105800

ur fucked mate. shes had five years to open up to it, shes not going to, and chance sare even if you did marry her the sex would be very few and far between, since as you noted its hard to even talk about. that means its not REALLY an issue of marriage, but more of a personal one.

good luck

/pol/ here. I'm Republican but not a Trump supporter (in fact I'm fairly liberal for a Republican.) How do I maintain friendships with my very liberal friends when every time I hang out with them they start going off about how they think all Republicans are stupid and evil racist Nazis? I find it more and more of a struggle to bite my tongue.

If you're not stupid, evil, or racist and your friends don't think you are either why does it bother you? They're talking about a very specific type of person.
>>
>>18105708

By not getting bothered by groupthink?

I'm a registered Republican that hates Trump. I let that be known, and I don't think any of my friends hold my party affiliation against me when I express how I actually feel.
>>
>>18105711
It's more the blind hypocrisy of it all. They'll insist they're enlightened and above making generalizations then proceed to generalize about Republicans or minorities (they "should" all be Democrats, as a Hispnic that annoys me) or they'll complain about the Republicans being paranoid then eagerly buy into some Liberal propaganda (they were all-in on the "Trump is a pedophile" story.) Maybe my issue isn't so much that they're liberal, but that they're blind to their double standards?

So.. I'm sort of confused.

I'm 25 years old, and most of the people I get along with are 40+ years old. Most of my interests are the same as people in that age range. For example, I can sit at home with a beer infront of the TV and with my phone, and watch Politics all day long. National and International politics as I try to keep up with the world. Looking at stocks, future investments, things like that.

Here is the thing. My friends have told me that I act like an old man. That I "need to be my age". That one day I'll regret it because I have the rest of my life to be old? What is it I'm suppose to do, to be my age?

I don't understand what that even means. I don't see what's going to be so different from me now, and me in 10 years in the aspect of what "I can and can't do"?

They mean you should go to parties and be dumb while your body is still strong enough to handle it and while you don't have a fanily to support and shit.

You can live however you want, but that's what they probably mean.
>>
>>18105401

Well, I've never been to a party before. But it doesn't look very fun to me anyways.

>while you don't have a family to support and shit.

This won't be an issue for me. I made a promise to myself that I'll never get married or have kids. So that limitation won't exist

>gf doesn't want to get married

We've been together for 4 years and I would like for him to finally propose to me. I finally lost it and asked him why he does want to get married, he never gave me a straight answer.

I want to finally settle down and he's acting like a manchild.

Marriage isn't a relationship upgrade.
Maybe he's not ready for marriage, maybe he doesn't want to get married at all, maybe he's not 100% sure of your relationship.
Let him take things at his pace, don't be the neurotic girl who wants a big wedding and a nice ring to show off to her friends. This is the kind of people who get divorced.

Is it possible to make friends/get a gf in the South if you don't believe in God or go to church?

Currently living in Alabama, you can, but it's much harder as more people in this part of the country consider the church a crucial part of their identity and their life.

What's your thoughts on septum piercings/rings? I got one a few months ago and recently went on reddit, shared a picture of me wearing one, and got a bunch of backlash. Apparently most guys think they're ugly, is that true? Should I get rid of it? Or stick with it? I personally really enjoy it, but if it makes me look like an idiot to others, then i'd rather not.

Do whatever the fuck you want. Someone out there is bound to like it, and if not, plenty of people who'd merely tolerate it.

Also >>18103658

Everything he said.

But yeah... if you're only wearing it because you thought it was attractive and you actually wanted to attract guys (/adv/ will be waiting for when you want to complain about men approaching you, as women tend to do) then yeah, it was a dumbfuck move.

If you're wearing it because you like it, keep wearing it, fuck other peoples opinions.

I'm 26, I've never had a gf, I've never had a kiss, I've never had a hug.

I've done really well in school, I've been employed for years, etc. I go to the gym, even though I have a long way to go.

I'm really sad and lonely all the time. I have a lot of really negative thoughts all the time and think about ending everything quite a bit lately. I'm really close to giving up.

I don't know what I need but I'm so tired and sad. Please help.

Tucanos. It's a Brazilian-style grill (rodizio.)

Should I refrain from dating or approaching girls if I am insecure?

I'm already doing this to begin with because I can't see how a girl could like me since I'm a boring person, and this falls in line with mantras such as "how can anyone love you if don't love yourself"?

No, but accept that you are going to fail several times. Learn something each time and become better at it until you succeed.

>>18105868
Not OP but when you're insecure your tolerance for failure is much lower. Being rejected even once or twice is devastating, speaking from personal experience. It's hard enough to try the first time but even harder to try the second time and harder again to try a third.
