more or less. the thing about most art fields is that they dont actually require a degree. an art degree can help you hone your craft if you're sloppy.

but its a lot like playing a lottery, but instead of a 2 dollar ticket you're paying a 120 thousand dollar ticket, and isntead of waiting a week, you cwait your entire lifetime.

my advice is if you're able to go to college get a real major, and just fill up your extra curriculars with all the art stuff you find particularly interesting.

It's like every other degree. Usually you should go into it knowing quite a bit of your craft to get the most out of it. Otherwise you'll be lost. In a field like graphic design and the likes what matters is your portfolio and your marketing ability.

This. If your art is going to sell, it's going to sell without that degree. You're better off building up a portfolio. In that sense, it's kind of like programming, really.

reminder not to do the following
>Girls or guys:.....
>everyone/all

Girls: I'm in a weird situation. I guess my relationship is open now and my gf wants me to casually fuck other women (but not date/catch feelings) but I'm not sure exactly how that can work, dating is all that makes sense to me to get to sex. There are a few girls interested in me that don't know I have a gf and I could easily date them but obviously not easily just have casual sex with no dating. What do I do?

Girls, I just recently broke up with my gf but we live together and are under a lease. She says she's okay and seems like she's moving on - she's out almost every night, but she still wants to kiss and cuddle occasionally and always says how much she misses me and seeks me for comfort.

She obviously still has feelings for me and I her, but I don't feel like this is a healthy way for us to move on. Do I give in and give her what she wants or should I establish a boundary? Is she really moving on or is she just saying that? Is this normal behavior?

Never broke up with partner before.

The irony is that having a big dick does not preclude one from being skilled with his tongue or hands. So you'll just have to accept that there are hung studs who are better lovers than you in every regard. Hope this helps.

But what if they only get off on deep vaginal stimulation?
Fingers and tongue only go so far, anon.

>>17917142

why do focus so much on woman? you should only finger or eat them out when it suits you. they derive most of their sexual pleasure from you deriving sexual pleasure from them. if you really wanted to please a woman, you would focus on pleasing yourself first.

>>17917119

you cant be friends if you have feelings for her and wont tell her. you have to be honest with your friends.

You'll grow to resent them in the long run trying to suppress your feelings. Just be honest.

>>17917130
trust me we're great friends. we talk for hours back and forth, no double texting or one sided conversations. im genuinely fascinated by what she has to say and we have hilarious banter. its just in the back of my mind when we're alone or if i look at he a certain way.

Hmm

>>17917070

It's a preference. Some women do, some women don't. I'd wager more do than don't, however.

This is a repeated thread. Stop it.

It's enough so that it's one of the reasons I regularly contemplate suicide.

I don't know, I'm not a girl, but girls do have insanely high standards nowadays (and so do I)

The top of a building like that should do quite nicely, especially if you make sure you go headfirst. Good luck, OP.

>>17917016
The building was a random-ass building from Google images. I want to know a distance.

three stories is the safe minimum. from that height there is no way to survive unless you're the main character.

>>17916983

when do you know if you care? by caring or not caring.

ultimately you will always be conflicted. everyones conflicted about everything. its hwy people on this board tend to give you a pros and cons list instead of just picking an answer for you.

>>17917057
I dunno it just doesn't cause me mental pain as much as it used to.

>>17917065

ur on the road to not caring or making peace with it at the very least. does it really matter WHEN or if you knwo it?

Most people here will tell you no, but that's not true. It will be hard to find a good balance between all of those, and part of finding that balance will have to do with how well you can realize not everything is perfect. Learn to be happy with what you have, and I'm not saying you need to settle or lower your standards but you need to be realistic. It's a fine line though.

That being said, it's hard to achieve all that in life. The roller coaster has to come down sometimes.

>>17916939

possible to happen yes, but possible to achieve? well its kidn of hard to say you can achieve a wife or stable family.

you ahve to remember that despite all the psychology books out there, there aren't very many cures to the human mind. you can't control whether or not your kid comes out with a physical defect, much less a personality flaw that tears the family apart.

stable is definitely different than 'perfect' but its the kind of thing thats hard to sit down and appreciate.

same thing goes for wife. i mean you can get a wife tomorrow if you lowered your standards. a lot of men say they 'cant get a gf' but what they really mean is that they can't get one who is attractive to them. they refuse to date within their league and call others shallow for it but not themselves.

the problem with making a 'wife' a goal is that you're just trying to check something off of a list. you could get married tomorow and hate it for the rest of your life and miss out on everything the world has to offer... including the possibility of a wife you actually like.

unfortunately the top two causes of marriage are 'im pregnant' and 'well we've been dating for a whole year, i guess we have no choice but to get married'.

>not being absolutely miserable

those three things above won't cure misery, so consider figuring out WHY you're miserable... or even if you're actually miserable and just not wallowing in misery.

>>17916966
My parents divorced. A lot of people who are married seem absolutely miserable and I don't want to end up like them. I really think the key is marring someone who isn't extremely flawed and has some values aside from just doing what is fun.
I just want to be good enough to earn all of those things.

I'm so nervous now I don't wanna get in trouble for something so stupid like this. I let my lust get the better of me

I usually always act like I'm interested even if I'm not. Because why not?

>>17916955
So you can touch a girl even if you're not really interested? Even making out with them?
Oh yeah I forgot men just want to fuck.

>to get an education, you have to be interested in that particular line of work

false. you should go get an education

>>17916920
I've been turned down from every line of education with hopes of employment due to either my stupidity or lack of interest. Save for one, where I dropped out. I was too stupid to become an electrician.

One does not simply walk into an university here.
