I wrote a letter to my ex. We've been broken up since april 2014. I have a girlfriend and she has a boyfriend. We both have some unresolved feelings for each other. Should I send it or should I just get my shit together? Pic semi-related.

I wanna send a big email to my ex, telling me exactly how much he hurt me. So I have been wondering the same thing... Also have a bf and he would probably think I still love my ex or something. :/

>tfw in amazing relationship with gf who is literally the female version of me
>tfw old fwb came back into my life after a big fallout we had because she misses me and the sex we had

I honestly don't know what to do anymore. I want to be faithful, but I enjoy having some variety. Additionally, said fwb was also one of my best friends, so Im wondering if it's even worth trying to keep that as well.

Through a loophole in the permission-system in the company i work for, I am able to see all transactions going on. Including of course salaries and other usally confidential things.

How can i proceed to make the most of it?
- Telling the Boss now
- Telling the Boss a week before asking for a raise
- not telling anyone and using information from the list to my advantage. Not sure how though

Seeing all these transactions tells me quite a lot about what is going on.

What would you do?

Pretty sure this is ground for breach of confidentiality if you choose to disclose the information to outside or 3rd parties. Its like working in HR and using your status to steal SSN.

Should I be horrendously embarassed that my girlfriend is better than me at smash and my 13 year old brother is better than me at drawing? I used to worry about how other people will make fun of this fact but now I realized I should just practice harder and more often and not compare myself too hard to others. Am I handling my sensitive feelings more correctly and maturely now? I used to want to kill myself for these facts

This is 4chan. A guy here had a fucking floor tile fetish. I know my post sounds ridiculous but it's just as ridiculous to dismiss it as bait. Or maybe if this thread was talking about sex problems or wanting to an hero, you'll take me more seriously, despite how repetitive those threads supposedly are.

It comes from childhood for me. People, even Girls used to be stronger than me, faster than me, and better than me in sports. I eventually improved a bit but the belittling and humiliation took its toll. It destroyed my worth as a person. Several times I nearly brought a knife to middle school to kill my bullies or die trying, since I felt my life was dead. Even to thus day it's hard to people as "good" since if you mess up at something, they will always get angry about it (i.e. my brother) or make fun of you about it. Hell they'll even baby you, which is what my girlfriend did.

My boyfriend is a wonderful person. I'm approaching my thirties (mega old) and he is genuinely the first person I have ever truly loved. I couldn't wish for a better partner and every day I'm grateful that he exists.

I'm having a really tough time at the moment. Work is difficult, I find myself getting stressed, my confidence is at an all time low and on top of that, it's January and therefore a super depressing month.

This is probably the first time he has genuinely seen me quite down. As in...ratty and snappy and incredibly negative towards everything. I'm normally a person who encourages stability but at the moment I'm pretty unreliable. I also love arranging things for us to do but at the moment I have zero enthusiasm for anything.

I know people go through bad patches but I don't want this to have a long lasting effect on our relationship or cause any issues. How can I ensure that I fulfil all his relationship needs and continue to keep the relationship awesome, while also working through my temporary slump?

I should add, he is just fucking wonderful when it comes to supporting me. I'm ridiculously lucky to be with him. This is just to ask for advice on how not to cause issues even though I feel shitty.

>How can I ensure that I fulfil all his relationship needs and continue to keep the relationship awesome, while also working through my temporary slump?

Stop right there. I know you're approaching your thirties so at this point you have to know that perpetual happiness is not the key to a succesful relationship.

If he isn't able to hang with you through life's ups and downs then this isn't the right guy for you. I'm not saying that making an extra effort to inject positivity in your relationship during this trying time is a bad idea. I'm just saying don't get caught up in this "Oh I'm so lucky to be with him, oh I hope he doesn't hate me." mentality that you forget to focus on yourself and invest all of your energy into pleasing him.

A good relationship with a good partner means that you can focus on yourself without having to worry that your partner is going to run away as soon as things get tough. It takes a bit of trust and a lot of communication.

Its okay to feel shitty. Communicate with him. Tell him everything you just told us. Do your best to be positive but don't sacrifice yourself to accomplish it.

If this guy is as great as you say he is, he'll completely understand.

If he's a piece a shit he'll make you feel guilty for being stressed and temporarily unavailable.
>>
You need to work on becoming emotionally stable and healthy. If talking to him about your problems doesn't help, you can always get therapy. Talking out your problems can do a lot to make you feel better and then you can work on improving your situation. I have a close friend who deals with anxiety problems and I always let her vent to me and listen. She gets really calm near the end and it makes her feel better. I am sure the same can help you.
>>
>>17925386

Thanks - you're awesome.

I'd never sacrifice my own mental health just to keep a relationship, regardless of how great it is. The point I was trying to make was that I don't feel shitty because he isn't putting the effort in, it's just because I'm in a bit of a negative cycle.

You're right though, a relationship should last through the good bits and the bad, without negative influence. I just need some advice on how to get a grip without it becoming extremely damaging.

Stop trying to get 'a girlfriend'

You will never have a succesful relationship if you are just going to try and get any girl who will have you.

Just talk to girls like they are human beings and eventually you will meet one you have a natural connection with.

I need adv /adv/, basically my sister is in college, has no job and is nothing but an expense on my family. I would explain all the bullshit things she's done but it wouldn't fit in one or two posts. I have ignored her alarming behavior but my family is now having financial problems. My father is a senior engineer for the government and makes 250k a year. My mother also works, we are a family of five and should not be in this situation. My sister is a failure and emotional wreck, to start it off, she takes classes she is interested in, my dad then pays for the expensive classes. Once the classes get hard she cries to my parents and drops the classes, no refunds. She has done this multiple times. She rented an apartment with a roommate. My father signed a one year lease and she didn't like her roommate, cried and moved back home after a month. She found a house with a friend and they lived there for a year splitting the bill. Her roommate is moving out and she cried to my parents and got them to rent the entire house to herself. My dad is depressed, every time he calls my sister out and says he can't afford these things, my sister says she'll kill herself for being a problem. I tell my dad to call her bluff and treat her like a child but he says he could never risk his daughter killing herself because of him. She always ask for money to buy makeup and useless things like expensive dinners. I can't stand being around her, I hate my sister. She is a 21 year old brat with no job, she majors in veterinarian science to pursue a career as a vet. My family is falling apart because of my sister and neither of my parents will call her out. I talk with my parents in private and they complain so much but they know they have to be careful. I'm not sure what to do, what can I tell my father, what can I tell my sister? It is depressing to see how hopeless my family is

Right now my father is sleeping on a twin mattress in our living room while my sister sleeps in my dads king sized bed. I fucking hate that bitch. My dad worked so hard in college, had no money. Worked summers and breaks. All while at a military college, he has had an amazing career and provided for his family, and just seeing him on a twin mattress makes me so fucking angry. Me and my brother start college very soon and I can't imagine what my dad is thinking. Unrelated, my mom filled for divorce and wants the house, my dad overheard them talking about how unbearable he is. My dad doesn't deserve this.

Your sister and mom sound like cancer. I can't even add advice in this situation beyond bumping the thread. Holy shit I feel bad for you and your dad op. My mom was a huge burden on my family so I kinda know the feeling. I only hope your situation gets better anon.

Your sister is a lost cause. Your parents made the mistake of raising her as a spoiled brat. And a spoiled brat will remain a spoiled brat, believing herself entitled to everything, forever - or until she is finally cut off, at which point she will become a resentful spoiled brat.

Give up on her. Focus on supporting your father in the multiple shitstorms approaching.

No idea if you guys can help me, but does anyone have experience or advice finding people with limited information?

Basically I lost contact with a girl overseas who I was really fond of her as she was of me and I would totally go and visit, but we hadn't shared much personal information with each other up until that point.

She sent me a dodgy link one day and whereupon googling it it basically said her Skype account had been hacked / compromised and I don't have an alternate way to contact her. She hasn't been online since.

I had hoped to find her on FaceBook as she doesn't have a super common first name and I know her city, but I couldn't find her. Short of hiring a P.I. I'm not sure what else I can do. If this had happened to any other of my contacts I would have got over it, but this girl was special to me.

I'm not being a creepy stalker who got removed and is ass-pained about it. She appears to have genuinely lost her Skype account (I haven't been removed from her contacts) and it really wouldn't make any sense for her to stop talking to me.

do you know her last name too? did she give you pics?
>>
>>17925463
I've reverse image searched pictures she's sent me to no avail.

Neither of us know each other's last names and I'm not sure if she has a FB, she was pretty insecure about sharing personal information considering I was technically still a guy on the internet even if we really enjoyed each other's company.

I wouldn't have been so withholding myself, but I guess it was kind of playful with me not sharing more personal details because she wasn't either (see who would crack first).

Main things I know is her first name, city, age, what she's studying and her interests.

Anyways OP, I recommend not watching porn, it's unhealthy for you. I used to be like you but I stopped watching porn, so my meat-beating sessions got boring, so I didn't do them as often. I've beat my meat 3 times in the last week or so, which is better compared to the twice a day routine I had for myself a few months ago. The big thing though is do something with your time. Go work out, watch a movie, cruise around the city looking for shit to do.

>tell her I changed my mind about giving her power of attorney over me while my parents are suing each other, so she rips up the contract.

Technically the only way to revoke the contract is by writing up a letter, notarizing it, and sending it to my mother through certified mail. (Basically serve with with a legal notice that she doesn't own me anymore.)

I'm worried my mother will hate me for displaying the fact that I don't trust her. It's just that I don't trust anyone anymore. Should I legally revoke our contract and risk straining our relationship, or just trust that she won't fuck my life up?

WHY would she ask for such a thing?

Moreover, why would you provide it to her?

Why would she be doing YOUR taxes?

It reeks of shit. You should have gotten more information.

>>17925223
I still live with her and rely on her for money, because I graduate in a few months. She claims she wants to do my taxes while I study abroad, because I will be out of the country.

I agreed to such a thing because I am a doormat that needs therapy, thanks to being my daddy's punching bag.

>>17925230
Are you working and going to school? I'm not sure what taxes you would need to file otherwise.

There's this girl that I work with. Her and I have gotten close over the past few months and we kinda bond over being depressed and having shitty pasts. She says she cares about me and says she loves me but it's almost always in a platonic and friendly way. The problem is I think I've really fallen in love with her. The thought of never being in a relationship with her makes me want to kill myself more than I normally do. I know this isn't healthy, but what should I do? I feel like I see signs every now and then that she might be interested but it really just doesn't make sense. I've never wanted anything so badly in my life.

If you think you love her then you can't be that depressed. Nonetheless stop being a pussy and ask her out. Not like "hey will you go on a date with me??" More like a "hey Ima go to Starbucks or some shit, you wanna come with?"
>>
>>17925226
Well, something that makes it more complicated is she is already in a relationship, though she doesn't seem to happy in it from what she tells me, but I'm not going to assume anything or say she should dump her boyfriend for me. I've been depressed my whole life but it was usually for no reason. Now it's like, just being around her makes me happy and talking to her is so great. I've had crushes on girls before but this really does feel different to me. Another problem is, I feel like I annoy her when I talk to her about my depression, even though she says she wants to talk to me and that I don't annoy her.
>>
>>17925234
Fuck it, soccer has goalies and they still score. This is especially the case if she doesn't seem happy in her relationship, finesse the guy. But If you really want to, say what I said but say "just as a friend" at the end so she doesn't feel awkward. Also find something to talk about other than depression of you really are talking about it too much. Talk about music or concerts or funny high school experiences, even if you have to make them up (but don't exaggerate the story or you'll sound like "that guy")

>>
>>17925162
the basis of all comedy is tragedy. every joke that is funny is at the expense of someone else.
take the chicken crossed the road joke
this isnt very funny but its considered a joke because it plays off of the expectations and fools the person youre telling the joke to.
another staple of comedy is the reversal of expectations. when something happens that doesnt make sense or you didnt expect to happen it can make you laugh. to 13 year olds this is just loltehrandumbXDpancakesnWAFFLES humor but there are definitely more mature versions of it.

writing original jokes is difficult because its easier to add onto something than make something new, hence why a lot of people can be clever/sharpwitted in social situations but wouldnt work well as a standup comedian.

don't be afraid to be mean to people, but never be cruel in person. (the idea of someone being unnecessarily cruel to someone can be funny if written right in a joke but in person it might now land well) don't take yourself seriously, avoid inserting your gender or your vagina or dick or fart jokes into comedy since those are almost always cringey and always be thinking about how other people view you.
if you play the fool make sure you act like it, if youre being the straightman or monotone sarcastic character make sure you look like it as well in delivery and facial expression to really get the most out of a joke.
