how do I live an interesting and exciting life /fit/? All I do right now is lift and sit in my room in my free time

>no friends, no social media account
>average income

what can I start doing that will get me friends and a gf? and stories to talk about with people?

what are some approachable hobbies that are fun and will make me more interesting? (watching movies and playing vidya in my room is fun, but not that interesting to other people). gym is not very fun or interesting, but coworkers have asked about my workout routine (but just to be nice i think)

what can I spend my evenings and weekends doing instead of staying indoors?

is it illegal to scam someone for money on the internet?

for example: scamming people on discord for 10-100 euro's

and what kind of problems can you get if you do those things?

>is it illegal to scam someone for money
This is the real question, and the answer is maybe. I'd say that scamming people on discord for a paltry sum of money is definitely not that big a deal, but it also depends heavily on what the hell kind of scam you're running. The only problems you can run into all involve running amuck of people who could actually track you down and fuck you over for it. See https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/ and the first few results for this kind of shit on google.

Honestly, considering it's the internet and if you're obtaining the money through fairly untraceable methods, you'll be fine. Honest. I'm assuming you're not doing anything like phishing or identity fraud? Those have very real punishments that you can look up relevant to where you reside.

Hypothetically speaking, if you were interviewing someone for a coding job (specifically webdev) and you see that they have multiple unfinished waifu games and apps along with some finished "professional" apps on their github, would you hire that person?

Also on their twitter they only post updates on their waifu games and other apps. Literally no other kinds of discussions or photos of social interaction.

ok /adv/ this will be a long one, so please bear with me, last year, met two incredible girls (for the sake of less confusion, I'll respectively give them the alias of Israel and Pocahontas) hit it off with both, realized I can only be with one, come this year, I decided that it was going to be Pocahontas, by this time I've connected emotionally with both, bad move, I know. The relationship is going well with Pocahontas, so I decided I have to wean Israel off of me, she refuses because of the experiences we had and it was too sudden for her, cries all the time about it and makes me feel like shit but it's the right thing to do, planned a trip to travel to NY, 2 weeks before my trip I found out Pocahontas slept with someone before we got in a relationship but it was on her birthday and she was drunk, I got mad and revealed to her I had slept with 4 girls whilst getting to know her and 2 days after finding out she slept with someone, I slept with Israel. We decided we'll continue the relationship, I go to NY, things are going well, at this time I've successfully made Israel my friend only based on the prospect her parents are basically leaving her on her own and I'll assist her financially, 3 weeks past, I return from NY, the first week of seeing Pocahontas (my gf) everything is well, up until sunday where she just sends me a message "I want to break up" i asked "why?" she replied "I just feel it's necessary" come to find out that on Israel's instagram there's a shirtless picture of me with the caption of how much she loves me, get furious and message her to take it down, I had gotten her some stuff from NY, so she came over for them and I was done with her but she started crying, made me feel like a p.o.s, we had sex, come this week, gf refuses to talk to me but keeps wanting to see me but only for our interaction to end with "I can't do this" but everyday she requests to see me, later find out that gf and Israel are in contact, exchanging everything that happened

cont page (2/2)
between them and I respectively, wednesday go to see gf, says she wants to work it out but would appreciate me helping the other girl financially since I promised her I would although it'll bother her, tell her I have to think about everything because I was drawn aback by the entire situation, currently gf is still mad at me and quote on quote "done with me and wants nothing to do with me" she called and told Israel that Friday, gf and I didn't speak up until saturday since thursday only for her to call me 2 am in the morning today when I was already getting over her wanting to know if I'll leave her alone by not contacting her since she doesn't want me to ruin herd happiness, now I don't know what to do since Israel is still sticking with me comforting me but I want my gf back because I felt this connection I never had before with anyone and I love her and she told me the same but it felt like she gave up on me too quickly and she still has not told me she was in contact with Israel but Israel showed me all the messages and to make matters worse, she took advice from her friend to leave me, whose bf cheated on her and she still took him back, should I just give up in this girl or show her how much I want her back? thanks for sticking with me through the end of this long explanation /adv/

Disclaimer : I don't have much experience with relationships.

What you did wrong : giving false hope to 2 girls at once. They probably both feels like they are your rebound choice, and no one wants to be that.

option 1: apologize to both, then cut contact nicely from both, and don't make the same mistake the same time.

option 2: apologize to both, make sure both accept your apologize, then propose to clear up the relationships and restart from the beginning to both. You choose one as a friend, and the other as gf. You don't fucking cheat on one with the other.

option 3 : Same thing, but both as friends.

option 4 : Propose a threesome.

Protip: You were a PoS

I'm an INTJ. I have no problems speaking to anyone or even to large groups.

Generally speaking I don't really care what people think of me because my self worth isn't determined by others and even if I'm rejected by someone I like, there are more fish in the sea.

All the doctors I see and my family are urging me to go on antidepressants

However I'm scared of them and have always had bad side effects from them

I'm also scared of them permanently fucking up my sexual response as I've seen online, and there was a study showing that antidepressants decrease life span

They want me to go on it because I'm an emotional suicidal wreck who cries every day. Every day, huge great heaving sobs and litres of tears

CBT has a response rate as high as antidepressants.

Unless your depression is very severe, you should have CBT therapy as a first line of treatment.

A few months ago I won circa 3 million dollars on a lottery, I'm 22 and I want o spend 700k on a 5 year degree on a really famous american uni.

I won't speak with this to anyone because I'm embarrased because it's lots of money

I'm not from eu nor usa, live in a shithole of a country, do you think this would be ok?, i would invest 2 million on various assets that would give me annual returns and only after that I will buy things for my family, what do you think?


I know they will get mad if I don't buy them houses and shit but I don't want them to hate me, what can I do? I'm not a doormat btw, just young and stupid but very lucky it seems. My mom is really old and it pains me to see her work though, my sister is a neet.

Help

For those of you who have children...

How easy is the decision to have them?

My partner and I have secure jobs, we are very much a compatible couple and are great together. We don't own property at the moment but have a very secure home.

I am almost 30. After a recent scare, I think we both realised that having a child is more of an attractive option than we thought.

Anybody care to weigh in on their experiences of parenthood?

>>18685636

Not married, no. Heathens, I know. And no particular reason. We would be happy to marry, we just never got round to booking the appointment. Neither of us want a big wedding, so it wasn't something we thought to arrange.

I see your point though.
>>
>>18685631

If your life is sorted out properly, then the only question that really matters is do you actually want kids. You can divorce your partner, you can change your job, you can move houses. But once you have a kid, then that's it. It's gonna be your damn kid for the rest of your life. So, unless you're absolutely 100% sure that you actually do want to have a child, don't have it. It's one of the only truly life-long commitments you will ever make. If you're sure you want one, then sure, go ahead.

/adv/, wat do? I've been thinking about going back to school and changing careers, but I worry that a few years down the road I will encounter the same thing. I hear that this is a pretty common practice, so maybe someone here has been through something similar? Or maybe you think I'm just being a whiny little bitch. Whatever you think about my situation, let me hear it. I feel like I'm going crazy trying to work this out on my own.

Why do you swear loyalty to a company that treats you like shit?

Just start looking for better jobs. If you find something better dump them.
>>
So, your job told employees there was no money for raises. So a lot of them leave. Then your job offers them higher wages to come back. Your loyalty is rewarded with nothing.

Call their bluff. Tell them you want more money and if they say no, leave.

I want to learn meditation but it seems impossible to me. I have several problems that could theoretically be reduced by regular meditation such as anxiety, better sleep, short attention span, lovesickness, procrastination and others. These are especially bad because I actually have a feasible future ahead of me, I'm in college and such, so I really shouldn't screw up.

The problem is that I can't for the love of anything meditate. I keep thinking "don't think of anything don't think of anything fuck what am I doing stop thinking of not thinking anything stop thinking this stop stop stop this is not working" through the ENTIRE FUCKING PROCESS. It seems to be completely ineffective with me. Even if I force myself to spend 15 minutes while sitting down and trying to empty my mind it seems to have no effect.

Can any anons give me advice on meditation? Any meditation methods for beginners like me? I especially want one that gives me patience and force of will to study. I'll follow any advice.

Thanks.

Mediation isn't about not thinking about anything, it's about metathought, which is thinking about thinking.

So for example, when you find yourself thinking when mediating, a metathought would be "A thought has automatically arisen into my consciousness; I accept it".

Concentrate on your breathing. Focus on the ins and outs. If thoughts arise, you acknowledge the thought and accept that it has arisen.
>>
>>18685579
I meditate. I started with random generic self calming mantras. Started out by focusing on breathing. Read somewhere that we tend to breathe in more than we breathe out, so when meditating, you breathe in 5 counts and breathe out 10. Focus on that for a few minutes, then start a mantra. Some relaxing generic but true thought like "death is inevitable and a part of life." While it kinda sounds morbid, it's actually very enlightening.

I switched gears after a couple of years and took up kundalini (the one you have picture in your OP) for more of a guided meditation. I swear by this meditation but it takes at least an hour or two to complete and reach nirvana.

I also use the "pink bubble" method for stray thoughts. Any time a thought comes to your mind, imagine a serene place (I always thought of being near a tree on a hill at sunset, and any thought you have, imagine putting it in a bubble, letting it go, and watching it leave while doing a 5/10 count breath.

I highly suggest kundalini when you go into guided/healing meditation. It changed my life completely.
>>
>>18685603
Also, always meditate in a quite room with absolutely no clutter. I live in an apartment, which is annoying for meditation. Found that the best time for meditation is between 4am and 6am as that is when it is most quite and peaceful. But that's probably for a much longer meditation when you are more comfortable and experienced in it

Need some /g/ood advice

Looking for a powerful enough laptop under 1,000 USD for primarily animation, therefore preferably one with the whole touchscreen gimmick since I can draw right on it.

Looked at HP x360, people apparently shit on HP as much as I thought, being a mid-level tech guy at best, Dell was shit on, now I'm unsure. A lot of comments on the jewtube video made it seem like you need a 'dedicated gpu', better memory, etc. I don't know my way around these basic terms because a lot of it is bullshit "bigger sounds better" marketing.

So I need the real answers from you folk

Artist and animator here.

Actually try a touch-based laptop before you buy one. I tried a surface pro and thought I would like it, but it was endlessly frustrating when the heel of my hand kept switching the layer on me. You need something pen-sensitive with a way to disable touch.

Also, I recommend checking out the Tiger Direct website. They have a lot of good stuff and it goes on sale a lot.

I've also personally had very good experiences with ASUS products. The hardware is solid and powerful and the customer service is pretty good. They have some annoying bloatware (Splendid Video Enchancement is one you gotta be wary of, it makes your screen yellow), but I;ve been very happy with their stuff.

I also have a friend who swears by the larger iPads. Procreate is a good app for it. Dunno if it has good animation software, though.
>>
>>18685580
The kind of software you need will also depend on the kind of animation you do. Is it frame by frame? That's relatively low-cost. Is it motion comic animation? That needs a stronger PC. Is it completely 3D with a lot of post-processing? You need an absolute powerhouse of a computer.
