What's the UPSIDE of being short? Please let's not just go through the motions of The Standard Discourse of all short men being bitter manlets and how women going after 6-foot chads is a meme, we all know that one by heart by now.

What I'm asking for are the genuinely good sides of being a short man. Not just neutral, or not-as-bad, the genuinely positive ones. I want to LIKE being short, and feel fortunate that I am.

this. its okay to be flexible on the when with a question like 'are you free this weekend' but what oyu basically did was say

>HEY, SEDUCE YOURSELF FOR ME :D'

and we dont like that, at all. we want that traditional date, and it doesn't really matter what it is. its so sad how many guys will ask me on a date and then when i say 'sure, what'd you have in mind' they just say 'IDK YOU DECIDE' then act like they're doign me a favor.

it lead to one really awkward day where i said 'lets play video games' then he came over and didnt want to play video games and just watched me play sonic. reallllly uncomfortable.

Am I autistic or does it just seem that way from how I act?

>>17893486

you aren't autistic. have you ever met actual autists? ive met many. i volunteered with special needs children and teenagers, and as an adult ive worked with / educated a few autistic adults. one my ex's was even legitimately autistic. even high funcitoning autists are not capable of stringing alon the sentence and thought process you typed in your OP.

not becuase they're too dumb, but becuase its too social, its too aware. no autist woudl be able to realize they are autistic.

the whole 'IM AN AUTIST' 4chan meme is just that, a meme. its something people have begun to try and convince themselves so they can lose responsibility for thier actions. its like tumblr with their 'thyroids'.

people just want an excuse so when things dont go well they can say 'NOT MY FAULT I HAZ DISABILITY :D'

trust me. go to an autistic meetup and you'll realize just how socially aware you are.

autists literally cannot read yuor fancial expressions and it kills them.

i was talking to an autistic man at the bar last night and despite me being extremely friendly, they literally cannot tell. he sat there the hwole night staring intently at my face trying to find something he could understand. he kept asking, unsurei f i was being friendly or bored or annoyed. he sat there the whole night just trying to understand, just wanting to 'know' what a normal average expression meant.

How can I be less worried about saying the right thing to a girl?

I'm anxious that my messages are too long, too short, too complex, too simple, too boring, too much effort put into being exciting. etc. etc. I just want to keep her interest, if it's there at all.

by realizing there is no 'right thing' to say to a girl.

girls are not robots all running the same scripts. pressing the right buttons in the right order will not get the desired outcome.

you are not looking for a girl that you confused, tricked, or manipulated. you are waiting til a girl lights a spark in you, and then you just hope that you light a spark in her.

girls dont sit around thinking 'WOW ANONS OKAY, IF HE SAYS THE RIGHT THINGSI MIGHT JUST GO ON A DATE WITH HIM, BUT ONLY IF HE TEXTS ME FOR THREE MONTHS SAYIGN THE RIGHT STUFF LOLOLOLOLOL'

a couple days in a girl already knows if shes into you or not. you dont want to wait that long to make a move. i never wait more than 24 hours.

I kid but so far I haven't had much luck with online dating.

This one game is ruining my life.
I dont even like it that much.

But all my friends play it and they are much better than I am... atleast in their rank. I know Im not very good but I just dont want to play it anymore.

But them knowing I am not good is seriously bothering me. I feel like because of my low rank they think Im bad at every other game. Thats the only reason I still play it, so I can hope to reach their rank so they think I am as good as they are. But I just can't fucking do it.

Its gotten to the point where it takes away from all the other games I play. I just feel like, whats the point? Whats the point of playing these games if they think I am bad at gaming? I just can't fucking handle it.

I dont WANT to play the fucking game anymore, I'm tired of it.
I just wish it didn't bother me so much.

I'll give you step by step instructions to help you out.

1. Stop playing the game if you are currently playing.

2. Uninstall the game or sell your copy.

3. Play other games and do other stuff with your friends. If they ask why you quit, just say it was boring and you didn't like it anymore.

4. Start doing things you enjoy with your life. You'll be a much happier person in general.

>Greasy black hair styled back, aviator shades and a tooth pick in his mouth
>Nametag says Danny

>I get coerced and agree to pay it in cash without negotiating

>Buy it
>Starts making rumbling sounds on the drive home
Basically I get coerced and manipulated whenever someone confronts me about money and I always fold to appease them.
I know I sound like a freaking idiot but this is just something I've always struggled with. Can I file a report if I get conned into buying a lemon?

Every journalist on the planet thinks you're racist no matter what you do because there's too many of the dipshits and they need some way to sell headlines.
Ignore it.

I like a guy, and we are trying to date exclusively. Sometimes, he vanishes for days at a time. This makes me sad, and he knows it.

When he reappears again, I try and be extra sweet, instead of "punishing" him with silence and coldness. Is this the best approach?

OP, ask this loser where he has been and TELL him it fucks you off. Frankly, its rude and not good enough.
>>
>>17893260
Hey, thanks!
So far, what I have already done is tell him
1. I can't just do hookups or be friends with benefits
2. If he wants to keep seeing me, he has to get in touch with me almost every day, so I feel like he is present in my life.
3. I completely understand if that's not what he wants, and respect his decision either way.

I think if he vanishes for five days, I'll just tell him I wish him the best and move on, no more chances. But I'll do everything super nicely, so that he doesn't feel guilty-- we are different people whose styles of interaction aren't compatible. No one to blame.
>>
>Silence or niceness
Neither, react normally as you would any other person you're close to.

>This makes me sad, and he knows it.
Slightly weird but fairly normal and common. Separation anxiety is more common in girls, and tends to be a result of being overly dependent and needy, but it could just be standard missing someone.
However the fact that you're taking it so seriously that you're posting about it makes me think that either 1. Your relationship is one sided or 2. You're a little bit mental

>instead of "punishing" him with silence and coldness
If you're punishing someone for going to work or staying at a friends for a weekend you're just mental.

>Is this the best approach?
No. You're not responsible for him nor do you have onus over his choices, hence you don't get to punish him.

All healthy relationships have both compromise and expectations, but punishing someone basically means neither are being considered and you've went full retard.

Start by taking a shot of bleach to calm the nerves and then either fucking try or don't. You can be smooth about cumming early by telling them you will make them cum twice next time/continuing foreplay.

I need to vent. I need to talk to someone about all this before I implode. Thanks for your patience in advance. I'd really appreciate advice from people who have been in D/s BDSM relationships before.

First and foremost, understand it is a D/s relationship. He's my world and as far as I am concerned, my owner. We met online about 5 years ago. Our history is rocky, uncomfortably so, actually. But none-the-less, in October we meet. I left my life, job, family, friends, to go live with my Dom literally across the country...and I love him. I love him more than I've loved anyone. So for at least the last few months, I'm happy. We had some shit to hash out at the beginning, but we reach a point where our relationship is everything we have ever talked about. My submissive heart is full and content.

Then he quit his job. He won't allow me to work or support him financially. I went back to visit my family for the holidays. I'm living with my mother now. Before all this, I lived in my own in another state aaaaand in 1-3 weeks, the home he and I made for the last few months is ours no longer. With no income, he can't be supporting me. He plans to live out of his truck and travel. He promised to come see me.

I'm a little devastated though. We are right back into long distance, but before I at LEAST had a life of my own. He says the relationship doesn't have to be over--I don't want it to be over. I love this man. I want to marry this man and one day have a family with him. All those things just seem like they're so far in the future, it hurts my heart and my brain. The trust we were building, I'm not sure we. can continue to build over the distance.

There is a DD/lg dynamic in all this. He wanted me to be a totally dependent little girl. I have been since we started living together. Now that I'm far away, I feel panic. I'm so scared. He usually tells me he can only comfort me so much and if that doesn't work, he's tired of hearing it. He's tired of talking about us. He didn't even video call me on Christmas or Christmas Eve like I asked for. I am lost. There's no time, space, or circumstance that would stop me from loving this man. I worry the opposite is not true at all and that out of sight is out of mind for him.

TL;DR my mind is full of fuck without my Daddy, I'm pretty much on my own and dunno how to cope.

He's abandoning you, at least for now

It'll hurt, I'd tell you to move on but you won't. I have no advice
>>
>>17893023
Yeah. I fear that. He says he's not, "Things will just be difficult/different for a while." I can only wait and see. Or, like you said, move on, but I don't think I'm going that way.

How do you deal with feeling guilty and ashamed over being attracted to other men? I've just always felt like I had to marry a woman and start a family, and honestly I still do. The gay lifestyle just seems immoral and wrong to me but I hate how attracted I am to other men and the fact that I've had sex with them. A deep sense of shame and self loathing. I honestly wish Mike Pence would electrocute me until I turned straight. My family is so nice and traditional, my brothers and sisters even joke that I'm our father's favourite son or whatever. I would really hate to be the faggot in the family, I already have a gay cousin. I know how much my mother looks forward to me getting married and having kids.

How do you guys deal with this kind of thing?

I really don't want to come out. Even living a homosexual lifestyle I would strongly prefer to hide all sexual activities and romantic relationships from all family members and most friends.

The gay community is honestly toxic and degenerate to people's lives. I don't want my nieces and nephews exposed to any of that garbage, even if I suck dick myself I can do the responsible thing and do it in my own house with the curtains drawn. I really value the fact that everyone in my family is Christian and strongly believes in family values, I'm only 25 but already my family is pressuring me to get married and have kids. I guess among the adults eventually I might tell them but I don't want to talk to kids or whatever about that, or introduce a boyfriend over for Christmas or something.

Being gay is something you should always be ashamed of and ask God to forgive you for. Every gay man should strive to be hetero.

How bad of a life choice is remaining single because you don't want to be with someone you are not attracted to ?
Serious question, I'm just too much ugly and I really don't think I could love someone I'm not attracted to at all that way and I don't want to live a lie all my life. (And sex, kissing and all romance would really be awful to fake)
I'm repulsed by the whole idea to the point dying a virgin don't bother me at all.
But I'm not sure how life long celibacy can be played out at all in life ? like how to manage to keep good relationships with coworkers and family (I'm very close to my parents) ? being always single late in life is probably likely to be seen as weird and since I'm not attractive at all I feel like people could be angry at me because it mean I have "too high standards", especially when it's true after a fashion.
Same with friends even If I never had a lot and I have none now but maybe I could make new ones in the future even if it look rather unlikely from my perspective.
I'm also rather scared by the fact older single people tend to be very lonely, especially when they begin to be middle-aged, have less friends and opportunities to get more people in their life outside marriage and family, are centered around theit family live, their parents die...ect...
Any thoughts about it ?
What can I do about the problems caused by this lifestyle ?
Is there anything you think I should know ? any advices ?
Thanks
PS : You are obviously not forced to have any sympathy for me, but I'm not interrested to read anything about how I just need to be shallow so I could magically stop to need sexual attraction to have a romantic relationship or how I'm a hypocrite despite not feeling entitled to someone I'm attracted to or having chosen how I look like, thanks.

Thanks for the advice but people with a flaw that prevent them to be in the same league than average people are still quite above really ugly people, and a relationship with someone who is only with me because she has a flaw she can't fix and otherwise would not go for me is probably still going to be incredibly shitty even if all the physical things could be more pleasant for me.
I know I'm probably rejecting all realistic types of relationship in my case with my dislike of anything unsincere but yeah...

How important is it to have a highschool diploma in order to get a job in the US? Shit-tier jobs like McDonals or gaymestop included.

Alternatively, do I need to re-validate a foreign diploma for it to be usable in there or is any you already have good enough?

Any you have should be good enough. As far as I know shitty jobs in fast food don't exactly check up on that shit as long as the interview goes well.

Generally you should have at least a GED tho but for what it's worth my dad never graduated and doesn't have a GED and has almost always worked. Manual labor, but work.

You can have your diploma translated and registered and it will be valid for all needs and purpouses. How do you think foreigners get accepted in American universities?

>>17892429
All you really need is a note in your resume or application, like

Diplomate, Paris Gymnasium (equivalent to US high School diploma)

So I got sucked into a fight, I have to meet some local fuck in the forest at the edge of town and fight him. Fuck's sake I don't even live in this fucking country, I'm here to see my sister and her boyfriend and their shit ice town.

Don't do it. You said yourself you don't know him. He might have a gang waiting.

Don't show and all you have to worry about is some random Swedish guy telling stories of that coward tourist that didn't show.
Since you won't be living there who cares what they might laugh about for a week?

If you do go. You could end up hurt, in jail or on the extreme side, dead.

Yeah don't go lol, the guy above me has valid points. You'll never see anyone anyone country again so who cares. Go have fun with your family. Fighting is for fags
