My friend told me that she thinks I'm an old soul, and that any girl would be "lucky if they got to know me."
That line of hers came from a conversation where she asked me what my insecurities are (We were on the topic) and I told her none of them are physical, but are personality based.

I feel like I don't relate to a lot of girls my age. None of them share similar interests as I do. More or less I don't share as many interests as they do. It feels like I'm the minority, because between college and work, I seem to socialize more with professors and co-workers in their 30's+ than I do with my own age.
>Music, vinyls, playing piano, etc.
>Traveling and hiking/camping (And I mean ACTUALLY doing it, not fantasizing about it)
>Really interested in literature/history, so I watch a lot of documentaries
>I'm not concerned with trivial shit like social media drama between celebrities, I'm not interested in reality shows, or many sports.
>I've been told by a few friends that I'm extremely "wise and introspective" and that's why they come to me for advice on things, because I "offer alternate outlooks".


None of this gets me past the first date though. I only tend to meet girls that are, as my friend says "girls that have nothing to think about other than surface level things."

Am I fucked for now? I just have the worst time finding girls that seem like they actually have things to talk about. They always seem uncomfortable talking about unconventional topics on the first date.

Nah you're just a hippy you'll find someone anon

Being into music and stuff is a pretty good way to meet people. Do you ever go to shows?

I don't know. It sounds to me like you have enough interests to be able to find someone.

>>I'm not concerned with trivial shit like social media drama between celebrities, I'm not interested in reality shows, or many sports.
Also, most straight dudes are like this, sans the sports part. But most girls aren't very interested in talking about sports anyway.

I got a new job a week ago and really regret the change.

>old job, hardware store
>full time hours, a little above min wage
>got along with everybody and did a good job on everything
>left due to money and was off only on sunday/tuesday

>new job, installing windows
>few dollars over minimal wage
>busy all the time, full time, overtime optional
>everyone is a meth head and i can't relate to anyone
>one team leader refuses to train anyone, including me
>joined only because of money and was off on weekends

What should I do? I really, really miss my old job. Will it get better?

go beyond the team leader and explain that oyu arent being trained and its going to bite the company in the ass.
>>
>>17989510
He's worked there for 8 years and the owner likes the guy.
>>
>>17989518

so if you go to the owner and say 'the team leader refuses to train me, please make him train me' is the owner just going to say 'NAH I LIKE THE GUY, YOU'RE FIRED TROLOLOLOL I DONT CARE IF MY BUSINESS FAILS'.

you literally have no other choice other htan just quitting anon

I just had a startling thought... Is my boyfriend lying to me about still having his job?

He went to work (which is at a fast food chain) last Monday, but he hasn't gone since. A while ago, he expressed worry at being fired, because he was consistently late from oversleeping. That stopped happening, but because of school, he was switching his schedule at work around. He didn't go on Wednesday, because of school and rescheduling. He told me that they scheduled him on Friday, but he slept through it (he has a skewed up sleeping schedule) and told me that he won't face any consequences and that they haven't contacted him. On Saturday he didn't go, because he said he rescheduled from Saturday too (to match up with my free time). Finally, he was supposed to have work today, but he is still sleeping and missed school and now work...

What if he got fired and is afraid of telling me because of pride, and that's why he's not bothered by consistently missing, because there's nothing to miss? Is this too paranoid? It literally only occurred to me today because that's one too many absences from work...

Sounds like he is lazy and going to get fired

If he was afraid of you finding out he was fired he'd be doing a better job of hiding it like actually going out etc

You should probably just ask him about it
>>
>>17989262
>being so shit you get fired from a fast food restaurant

Get a better boyfriend
>>
>>17989281
No, because I love him for other reasons. His motivation and conscientiousness is just really low.

Friend is sick and asked if I could cover for him at work

I told him I didn't want to, but the experience confused me.

Is this normal? I've literally never worked in a restaurant before, don't know anyone there, etc etc

I've given this guy $500 rent money when he's been going through bad times so it's not like I don't care about his well being or am unwilling to help out but...

What I don't understand is why he thought I would be even slightly interested in doing his job for him? I don't give a flying fuck about his job, and his job doesn't know I exist- so why would I be dragged into the equation at all?

Have a weird picture of a doll for your trouble

That is a weird proposition, and quite honestly if one of my friends asked me that I would think he was joking.

Obviously, it doesn't seem to be the case in your situation.
So yeah, it's pretty weird to ask someone who doesn't work at the same place to cover your shift at work.
>>
>>17989270
Thanks, that's pretty much what I thought. I'd understand if we worked at the same place

that is a weird proposition. i mean do you e ven have any restaurant experience? let alone working here for a day would slow down the crew more than it woudl help him. it is a weird request imo

Anybody here get frustrated at the thought of sex and just sexual nature?

it just really makes me feel bitter. This whole "everyone's fucking everyone" thing. Everyone gets fucked silly in their offtime. It bothers me how it's so expected and important in society.

I haven't had sex in a really long time by choice. Do I get sexual urges? Yes, but I reject them. I have the opprotunity right now to go have sex with an 18 year old this weekend if I chose to. She's been texting me about getting together. But I won't, because I'm stubborn.

Why tell us?

Sex is fun and it feels good.
>>
>>17989219

rejecting sex doesn't really make you better than anyone who has sex.

the problem here isn't that sex is everywhere so much as you think you're above it.

i get your basic sentiment i have a similar issue with romance, because people act like romance and dating are the end goals of life.

I've been having this problem falling asleep for years, basically whenever I try to fall asleep I get these "phantom itches" basically it feels like its an itch that appears on my skin purely to stop me going to sleep, if I scratch it that wakes me up and another one will soon develope, if I leave it it will either spread to making more itches, or become so unbearable I can't ignore it, wither way I can't go to sleep and it takes me hours every night, I have been going to sleep at a regular time and everything in a completely dark room so I just dont know whats wrong

You might have bedbugs. Wash everything and vacuum and preferably steam clean your whole house. Keep cleaning and washing everything for a few months. New eggs will hatch, the goal is to kill all bugs before they reach sexual maturity, thus killing the entire population.
>>
>>17989222
I wish it was bedbugs, but unfortunately it happens wherever I go, even after moving to a new house with a brand new mattress and brand new sheets
>>
>>17989244
I had similar symptoms and almost a year into it, one night, i suddenly woke up and felt an itch on my arm. I quickly turned around, pressed my hand onto the bed, and stroke it, until i felt a small hard lump, like a breadcrumb. i held it there, switched on the light, and saw a bedbug. I took my glass of water, tossed the water out of it on the floor and put it over the bug. I lifted the sheet around the glass, maneuvering the bug into the glass, and got up. I kept the bug in the glass, got some clear tape from a drawer in the next room, and dumped the bug onto the table. trapped it with some tape and stuck it on a piece of paper. Then I went online and found out from photos what it was. I had no idea i had bedbugs, and it was the only one i ever found.

Over the past 2.5 years I've had 7 major falling outs with people. I feel that each individual one has its purpose and isn't my fault, but I'm sure the respective people feel different.

I'm not speaking to (or didn't for a span of over six months): my mother, 3 of my closest friends, one of their brothers, my ex girlfriend, and a former coworker. The last two make total sense - I dumped my ex and refused to talk about fixing the relationship, and my coworker is mad that I quit and left her with a huge workload.

But I want to be honest with myself and fix my problems if I really am the person causing this. Is it common to have this many falling outs with close people in your life? How do I objectively look at each situation and solve the problems? At what point should people just bury the hatchet and try to resolve issues as opposed to holding grudges?

>>17989185

depends. in most cases its neither parties fault, its usually both to some degree. someone might have started the fight but others escalated. it alldepends on what happened.

your mother is worrisome but im the same with my father (though he left us for a year then lied about why). as for friends, it kinda depends. you sound young, possible in college, basically in a big transitional period and you might find that people you were close to ebfore was only because of convenience.

we'd have to dissect each issue seperately and even if you explained it to us, we can't be sure you're telling the whole story.

the best advice is to just talk about why you arent talking out loud. your brain will hear it instead of just thinking it. then you ask yourself. is this petty? are you ignoring people over minor arguments that you take seriously? or are tehy real issues caused by them being bad people?
>>
>>17989213

I'm actually 30, which is what makes this real contentious. I'll try to touch on some of them...

>Mother
I got a new job, she called me a disappointment and a failure because she didn't like the new job, told me I was squandering my future, and kicked my dad out of his house for three days, threatening to divorce him unless he forced me to take my old job back.

>Close Friend 1
I've known this guy 20 years - he and I have always had our squabbles, but he told me I was an awful person and not a trustworthy friend because I was friends with someone he didn't like, and couldn't make it to his girlfriend's kid's rescheduled birthday party. We didn't talk for two years, but he's fallen on some sickness/alcohol related issues and we're at least on speaking terms again.

>Close Friend 2
Actually the guy that #1 didn't like, he's got alcohol problems ever since his dad shot himself while they were on the phone together. He and his brother both fly off the rails when drinking sometimes, but are otherwise good dudes. His brother got a DUI, and I had taken a cab home, so he blamed me for "abandoning him and his brother," since I guess he expected me to get them home safe.

He ended up telling me this while drunk and screaming at 4 AM in a hotel room while we were on vacation. He dropped his pants and pissed on the floor, saying it was a way to pay me back for what his brother has to pay. Security came and I decided just to leave. Haven't talked to him since.

The last isn't as extreme and we're kind of okay again, maybe, but she's struggling with alcoholism and is mad I'm still friends with her ex.

I'm in a LTR, love my boyfriend etc. But sometimes, I have dreams about being in a relationship with another guy (a colleague). The weird thing is, I don't really find this guy attractive outside of dreams, and I don't want him over my bf.

It's always this one guy.

Is it my subconscious having a crush or something? Obviously I'd never do anything because I am happy with my boyfriend when I'm awake.

Is there any way to stop this?

>>17989174

no way to stop it really. if you are close to him at wokr, like buddy buddy your brain might just be interpreting it that way because it doesn't know how to handle someone that close.

some people have gay dreams because they feel so close to their friends that even if there's no lust, there is love. sometimes people even have sex dreams abotu their parents because of how close they will feel.

We're not even close. He's just a guy.

I'm a virgin not by matter of appearance, and I think I can now act out a fuckable persona, but where do I go to find partners with whom to have sex? I'm not old enough to go into a bar and bring someone home, and I'd rather not wait until I am.

No I'm a virgin by matter of turning half the girls at school off by acting autistic around them and turning the other half away because i was autistically chasing some random other autist. If I had a location and watched my demeanor i guarantee you I'll lose it within a week.

I'm currently 19 male and have never had a girlfriend despite trying since 15 and don't understand why I can't get a relationship. I have many close friends and at highschool, collage and now university I'm fairly popular so it's not like I'm a creepy outsider who doesn't talk to anyone. Also although I don't rate my self as more attractive than average I can get with women in clubs if I want to and have done in the past as well as had a few casual sex partners in past years so I don't feel my attractiveness is a problem. I've also been on a few dates with people I've met at collage or online but it's never gone anywhere. I've tried apps such as tinder and sites such as tinder but these haven't worked out for me either, I also have standards but I still find many women attractive. What advice would anyone have?

A job your family or friends can get you is the best option you have without experience.

Any other job that would take you won't pay you much, but at least you get exp to move on to better stuff.

For my job, I have go all the way to Brazil for almost an entire month.

I'll be away from my girlfriend, and it'll be the first time since my early teens that I'll be an entire month without sex.

Anyone have any tips on how to get through this period?

I'm from brazil. Where are you going? Depending on your destination the bitches are so ugly you'll forget sex is a thing lol

There's a thing I did a few occasions that might help keeping your urges in control. As you start to cum, force your muscles like you are peeing. This will make your cum come out in a steady stream and you can drain your balls that way. Not as good as a regular orgasm, but an efficient ball drainer

Long story short: a family member owes me a significant amount of money. I have the chance to take it back, but I'm not sure if there's any hidden consequences there would be if I were to, even though I've read up on the situation. We have a joint account that we use to pay certain bills and whatnot. It's come to my attention that the other party has put in an amount that is nearly the amount they owe me. They know I want this money. However, I feel they are trying to trap me, cause they are like that. Even though I read that it's legal for me to take this money, I just feel there's some sort of trap door waiting for my step.

Even though we both are owners of the account, would it be legal for me to withdraw the money that is owed to me, even though I wasn't the one who put it in the account?

Yes, because it's a joint account. If you used their information to withdraw money from an account you aren't apart of, then it would be illegal.
