High school teacher
Work for a relative
Work up from some shit job
Law school maybe
With a degree like that, if you don't have a PhD, then you've wasted your time.
Go back to school and work for a PhD or change your degree.
A BA is 5 credits less than a BSc. Putting BA on your resume is like saying "I was too lazy to work for half a year"
Are there any good books on how to organize your life and not be a complete fuckup?

What's the real average of pickup success rate?
It seems even with pros from 20 girls they approach, they get 1 date.
>>17875028
5% is about right for anyone. the difference with them is they keep trying. They may ask 30 before one hit but hit another withing the next 10 they ask. Still works out

Is it inappropriate to get a girl a Christmas present if her boyfriend is already uncomfortable with your interactions with her?
Won't I seem like a jerk if she gets me something and I don't get her something in return?
Depends on what's your relationship with her. Generally speaking, if your presence is already creating sparks in their relationship I think you should just leave her alone, you don't want to get involved in this kind of shit.
It's hard to know without details. Just don't get her jewelry.
>>17874978
I was way too close with a girl for a stretch while she was in a 'committed' relationship and as long as you're respectful of the couple I think it's fine. He's going to be jealous but let's face it he's going to be jealous of any guy she so much as looks at, buy her a present but something quirky that won't get confused for you trying to be romantic.
ok so im like super broke and i can't afford food so i was thinking i would trade in some games at gamestop. the games i'm going to trade in are pokemon moon and omega ruby (both in good condition with cases) but i don't know how much i'll get. i don't want to sell them on ebay because i need the money quick. so should i trade them in at gamestop?
>>17874976
Bro you're gonna want to play Pokemon in a week, sucking dick on the side is a way better method of making money.
But in all seriousness how is the situation that you're so broke you can't afford ANY food but have two 3DS games, one of which is a new release? I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume you're terrible with money and if that is the case yes, you should trade them in so you have a reminder of what happens when you don't budget correctly. Ingrain in your head that irresponsibility = losing what you enjoy
>>17875009
the games were gifts bro
>>17875013
Then yes, sell the games and buy half a years worth of ramen
I think about sex way to much I think. It causes me to whack it too frequently, I think it's a huge part of the reason I struggle to maintain normal friendships with women and it just drives me insane.
How do I deal
Welcome to puberty, in a few years when you are old enough to drink it will solve itself.
>>17874981
Get a gf? Dunno man. Its not too hard. Even a cute chubby girl. Theyre really nice and keep you comfy.
Whack more.
I know there isn't any easy method to move on from someone. Specifically unrequited love. But for those who have experienced it, what have you learned from it and what did you do to move on with your life?
Not going to go into details because i don't like to talk about it, but basically: things happened that eventually replaces feelings of love with feelings of nausea and vague disgust. That made it much easier to move on.
Cutting all contact is literally the only way. Trust me.
My only solution is not seeing them. Or meeting someone else I like more. Sorry!
My gf's period started last week, lasted like a day or two then stopped. What could be the cause for this? She bled for like one day then nothing afterwards.
I know it can't be pregnancy because all the last times we used a condom and I came in her mouth. However I'm worried, it seems abnormal.
Antibiotics or stress can mess periods up
She could just be stressed or losing weight.
Maybe she's not eating well enough and just a little unhealthy.
Tell her to get a pregnancy test just to be sure. That'll be one less thing to stress about
>>17874911
>>17874916
She has been very stressed, yes, and she eats horribly, although she's very skinny.
from the girls you know (roughly aged 20-30) from your social circle, work, school, how many are a normal weight, how many are chubby and how many are fat? also, where are you from?
i'll start.
from 19, 1 is fat, 2 are chubby and the rest is thin to average
middle europe
I like to fuck chubby girls so about 80% around me are chubby
>>17874892
a bit more specific please?
How do I into this?
Gf wants me to be more sexually confident/dominant in bed. She is a sub and wants to be my dirty little whore.
I've never done it so idk how to do it correctly. Any tips/guides/stories?
Op didn't you ever watch porn?
1) Sexual choking
Squeeze the sides and the back of her neck pretty hard like you're trying to choke her but don't press on her windpipe, this will cut circulation off to her head giving her a dizzy feeling, most girls love this if you do it from behind and slam into them. Esp if you have a big enough hand to do it one handed while doing part 2
2) Spanking
Light or hard depending on her preference, all girls love some form of this
3) Don't have them get into the position you want, PUT HER in the position you want
Thats really all there is to it unless she wants you to do something more extreme in which case thats kind of a red flag imo unless its very light bondage.

So I met a girl, very smart, pretty and bisexual.
We liked each other kinda quickly. And she says she likes me. We barely dated yet, just once or twice. Talking with her yesterday I found out that this girl is not ready for a relationship and that her life is, according to her: "Directed and commanded by her sex drive and hormones".
So she wants to have it all, because she really likes to flirt and get sexual experiences. She's a virgin but she has some close experience with almost sex.
I can't wrap my head around that, and I consider myself open minded. Because all of this sounds more like fear of being hurt to me, since she had some bad experiences in the past with serious relationships, maybe she wants to invest little, try to get most of the fun and walk out when something happens.
I'm pretty confused, since she says she likes me but never sexualized me, and this girl is able to go to a party and have oral sex with a guy she met 1 hour ago.
Any thoughts on this? Maybe I should walk away for my own good, or should I give it a try? Keep in mind that i'm virgin as fuck and I don't enjoy sexual stuff or kissing unless there's feelings with it. For me sex without love is just a whim
This is not the type of girl you OP she's a basket case she wants the thrill of being a slut but is still a virgin? That's just a delusional nut job. Stay away there's nothing to be gained here since your interested in romantic attachment.
>>17874793
Yup, maybe we just have different opinions. I was thinking about giving it a try since I have very little sexual experiencie and I consider wrong or negative the fact that sometimes, we humans use other people as fucking objects to please ourselves, and since we are emotional beings, there can't be a "no feelings, just physical" stuff going on.
But at the same time I feel like i'm being close-minded. I don't know, being so firm with my principles of "romantic relationships" gave me some pretty bad experiences, and while I don't regret them at all, I see that all the superficial people have way more fun than me, fucking someone different every week, ignoring deep stuff and feelings and just not giving a fuck about compromise.
Not saying I will start a relationship with this girl, but should I try to get more laid instead getting connected and feeling meaningfull with people?
You want a loyal girl, and this girl will fuck everything she wants, it's simple, you can't be together thanks to that.
Please tell me all about pubes and invasive shaving.
They say the moment a young female shaves their legs they will need to keep doing this for the rest of their life, the new hairs are forever dark and noticeable. I live through something like that. The hair line keeps getting lower and lower down the leg, and now if unshaved my briefs can't censor it anymore. All is good but I fucked up and pretty much a shaving junkie at this point. What do?
One bump.
>They say the moment a young female shaves their legs they will need to keep doing this for the rest of their life, the new hairs are forever dark and noticeable.
Never heard this. Sounds like bullshit.
nah, shaving has no effect on haur growth. you don't alter rhe folicles by getting rid of what's outside the skin. that's simply impossible. the only thing i could imagine is that the hair might get slightly thicker after years of shaving since the body thinks it is adapting to some friction.
what happens is that you cut off the hair's fine end. imagine a needle that someone cur off the tip. ofc it will be more stubbly and appear thicker. but it really isn't. all you need to do is stop shaving and start waxing. it will take a good while till every single hair went trough the process .probably about 7 years to get back to how it was prior to shaving. that's the average lifespan of a hair. after that and with sticking to waxing, you will have only hairs left with fine tips again. but it won't take that long to feel the effect. i can notice it after the first waxing. but to get rid of every hair with a blunt end, that's the time it will need. and remember, everytime you shave, you have to start from scratch.

Ok i know for a fact im not autistic, but its some strange thing, that whenever someone gets into conversation with me, they just seem to fade out. I havent always been like this. I mean ive been going through a bit of a rough patch with depression, but its just killing me now. Its not gender specific, or at least as far as i can tell. for example I was talking to my dad, and for some reason its as if he just faded out, and my mind refused to acknowledge him. Whats worse is that i just feel so empty inside. I dont dream or even have nightmares. My mind is just so blank, and its really starting to take a toll on me, mentally and physically. Im guessing its obviously tied in with the depression, but i just have no clue what to do. anything helps. also share anything related , and how you fixed it
>inb4 Op's an autistic fag
>>17874572
Obviously it's not they who fade out, but you. Does the same sort of thing happen when you're reading a book - does your mind just wander away from the page?
It sounds like a kind of ADD, an inability to keep your mind focused.
>>17874572
get some professional counseling
get a complete physical
maybe your brain has chemical problems ?
we don't know shit here
op here, I can read and focus just fine. I'm a pretty normal person. It only really effects me when I'm talking to anyone. I can sort of describe it as if they are completely blank faced. Another example was when a lady I know at my gym offered me a coffee, and she even said herself that she noticed something odd with me and how I was responding. She said it was as if I kept forgetting she was standing right there. Not to mention, I live in a pretty isolated town, quite far from the nearest psycologist and I dont really want to waste petrol just for someone to tell me something I already knew.thanks for the quick replies though
I have a family history of mental and addiction disorders and lately I've been having this stuff happen to me.

I never have this compulsion, or at least not strongly, when I'm with someone else though.
>While I'm sleeping I'll sometimes feel like I went numb all over and I'm vibrating as well as a very fast heartbeat.
My mother who is the source of my mental illness heredity says those are night panics and she used to get them. I never had stuff like this as a kid and I'm 23-24 now, about the age mental illness manifests.
Oh also
>I tend to get angry pretty quickly if somebody is belittling me or trying to bully me, like I go from zero to violent threat almost instantly. However I don't act on it, I find another way to really piss them off the same amount I am.
For example if my sister starts talking shit at me rather than beat the shit out of her like my head is screaming for me to do I just go get a cup of cold water and dump it on her and that soothes my temper. Otherwise it will bother me like a bad itch for at least an hour.
Being quick to anger isn't a sign of psychosis.
>While I'm sleeping I'll sometimes feel like I went numb all over and I'm vibrating as well as a very fast heartbeat.
How do you feel it if you're sleeping? Do the vibrations feel like you're causing them, or something else is?
>I have compulsions to do weird stuff and mutter to myself when I'm alone
Does it feel like you're being forced to do that by something other than yourself?
>While sleeping, I'll suddenly hear a scream from inside my head, like someone trying to wake me up
How is this any different from a nightmare?
>>17874585
>How do you feel it if you're sleeping? Do the vibrations feel like you're causing them, or something else is?
It wakes me up, it feels like my bed is vibrating but when I stand up the feeling persists, I had my pop grab my arm to make sure i wasn't trembling and he said I wasn't.
>Does it feel like you're being forced to do that by something other than yourself?
I don't know, I just find myself doing them fluidly
>How is this different from a nightmare
Because I'm not fully asleep when it happens
>>17874557
I just read your post, you're not "crazy" but you most likely have an anxiety "disorder".
>While sleeping, I'll suddenly hear a scream from inside my head, like someone trying to wake me up
Pretty common. Extreme cases are called exploding head syndrome (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding_head_syndrome). Speaking from personnal experience I generally associate those with "relaxing" while being in a stressful/anxiety inducing environment. It's a fight or flight response, the type that's most likely triggered by my subconscious trying to get me out of bed because my surroundings - on an emotionnal level - are shit and/or dangerous for my psyche. A kind of "don't let your guard down" signal. Used to get those when I was still at my mom's. A subconscious wake-up call for me to get out of here ASAP if you wish. She's a very anxious and emotionally unstable/weak person and it always fucked with my own feelings.
I'm back at my parents' after 4 years leaving independently and I had one or two of those while half-asleep. Nothing major, small cymbal-like sounds, small voice-like things. And guess what, their lifestyle and problems are slowly starting to eat away at me again!
While I wouldn't worry over such things, those are signals you should be attentive to. Do not undermine their potential interpretation, but know that this is just your brain firing signals for you to notice an underlying condition.
>I have compulsions to do weird stuff and mutter to myself when I'm alone, like to vocalize the thought static that runs through every-bodies brain. A funny joke, a line from a movie, having a mock conversation with somebody on a topic of an article I read.
Again, nothing weird. I play scenes in my head a lot, even smile to myself because of made-up dialogues or made-up situation. Usually situations I long for, or some distant reality that I can connect with to escape reality. This is daydreaming...
