I'm more attracted to CGI women than real ones.
This is no different to being more attracted to anime women, so I guess I have hopes y'all will have some experience even from just reading threads within which people had similar problems.
So yes, help me. How do I normalise my sexuality?
Pic related, it's an example. I'd rather have intercourse with this shit-covered knife-face with a birthmark than a kinda pretty French girl at work.

Masturbate to regular porn for awhile.

You're not attracted to cg women you're attracted to having a guarantee that you won't be rejected a cg doesn't exist so she can't reject you or reveal a flaw or anything like that. That why you obsess with escapist fantasies. If you want to get over this stop trying to escape and live life no more roleplay in no more childish games just go out have your own real life adventures

so, I'm 30 in a week. I really thought by this point I'd have something figured out. I make enough so I don't have to worry about bills, have a few creative projects on the go, in good shape (not brilliant, but I look after myself), eat right and moderately, don't have any bad vices, don't smoke, drink occasionally, no drugs, in a long-term relationship...
So why do I still feel unfulfilled?

Impossible to tell, because people find fulfillment in different places. For some it's job, for some family, for some religion, life experiences, hobbies, etc. Obviously you just haven't found yours, so keep looking and refuse to settle even if life is somewhat good right now.

>>17817418
Dunno m8. Do you think nobel prize winners don't have their regrets?
At 24, fulfillment as some perfect destination just seems a little bogus. Do you think you will be frozen in the emotional state of fulfillment when you get there? I've always felt that it's just a bunch of disconnected feelings of validation, and achievement. That it might just be the ability to reflect on your life and be glad.
My buddy tells me he wants to enjoy life without expectations about it. Easier said than done. But it sounds like a good idea.

Satisfaction and pride in oneself come from working towards your goals
Whatever you're working towards isn't right for you or you've given up. Remember, satisfaction and motivation are the result of working TOWARDS your goals, not accomplishing them. This is why the self help books are all bullshit selling motivation as a roadblock or the key to happiness- they know you'll never get there because there's no such thing as happiness other than satisfaction and feeling good about working towards your goals

Tech moron here. My laptop refused to turn on today and I don't have a recent backup. I have loads of important work on it, including a 50 000 word document that I have a deadline on a week from now. Basically I need to get the info somehow. Now, I don't think the laptop is completely fucked. The on-button is messed up, and I think it finally quit on me. Is it possible to start the computer without it? Bypass it somehow? What are my best options?
inb4 opening it. I did (and have done so in the past) to fix the button but it didn't work. It doesn't react. It is very dead.

Well you might try taking out the hard drive and loading that on another computer. IT might be the processor (in which case you're fucked) or something else. Best to just get what you need and get another laptop
>>
>>17817423
How do I do that without breaking anything?

go to you tube and search for:
<laptop model> disassembly
Most are very difficult
Do you have a "mom & pop" computer fix-it place nearby?
You could pay a few dollars for them to take it out for you.

How the fuck do you build a sense of confidence? I think mine got fucked early on when I got my heart played with a bunch in middle school and early high school. I'm finally getting to a place where I'm feeling good about life. New job in an industry I love, trying to learn as much as I can to start my own business out of school, and even out of the major I hated. Even at that my new job bosses and shift leads are constantly telling me to be more confident and have more of a sense of urgency. It's like everyone somehow got conditioned to better deal with shit than me.

So you lost confidence due to some bitches? What the fuck, I know when people lose it due to abuse at home or bullying, something like that
Anyway, you can't gain it like a damn trait, got to build it up, start working out, read something, maybe Will of power by Nietzsche , do some sports or something like that

Does anybody know any real ways to make some easy money on the internet without doing too much? I know that makes me sound like a lazy bum, but that's cause you don't know my situation. I have a job. I'm a busboy at a local restaurant where I live, and i get paid cash about 300 bucks every two weeks. Here's the kicker. I've worked there for 3 months and have only 350 saved up. Not because of MY spending habits, but because my family leaches off of me. To them, I'm just a source of extra money. The only reason I still have that amount of money is because its in my bank account that I made without them knowing. I take a little bit of cash and put it in each pay period, but not enough for it to seem like alot of money was missing when my mom takes it from me. I'm turning 19 in January and I want to be gone by then. Yes, I plan on leaving. But in my current situation, I won't have enough money to survive long enough to get back on my feet wherever I choose to leave to. I just need a way to make some extra money without my family knowing so I'll be set when I leave. I hate that I'm doing this, because I truly am a hard worker, and I love my family, but I don't see myself having any sort of future as of right now. Just. Anything helps guys. I know you guys can help me out.

nope. there isn't. you can find ways to make money online but they involve being entrepreneurial, not just shit we can sign you up for. if things like that exists they'd be over clogged fast.
my advice? just move out to a shitty situation. people act like their only choices are the american standard of comfort or homelessness.
but you could say, move out, live with 4 dudes in a studio apartment eating nothing but chicken and rice and still save more money than you save at home.

have you tried to talk your family about what you're trying to do

But does anyone know where to find roommates that would be down for a shitty apartment
I wanna save as much money as possible to start a buisness
I've got a problem /b/. I'm going to be smoking weed with some friends at 5:30 (not a regular smoker, once every few months), but my friend who cannot know about this wants to come over to my house at any reasonable time, I guess 9 or 10 would be the cutoff. I don't really want to hang out with him, but I would enjoy it.
A high lasts 2-3 hours and I want to do both. What should I do?

Yeah, don't go overboard. Just relax and let your day flow.
i am completely incapable of feeling anything beyond indifference (in the positive spectrum) towards other people.
i want nothing more than meaningful human connection. i have no trouble meeting people, getting dates, making friends, etc. i am just literally unable to ever feel anything about the people around me beyond literally not giving a shit about them at all.
it's not even hatred, or anything like that. it's just like i couldn't care less about any person i have ever met in my life.
how do i.. get myself to feel, i guess?
i'm not even sure what i want advice on. have any of you learned to love? do i have some kind of whack personality disorder or am i just sort of cold?

Maybe you just haven't met any worthwhile people.
>>
>>17817242
but i have met people that i think are funny, or cool, or interesting. it's sort of like i can feel positive emotions towards the things that people do, but can't actually find any meaningful connection with them.
i don't think the problem is the people around me, honestly. i find it really hard to believe that everyone i've interacted with is a vapid shell.
people feel connected to me, i just fake everything back. it feels empty and cruel.

>>17817250
Do you remember a time when you did feel genuine connection to somebody?

Here's the sitch. I'm a bad person.
Not "I feel like I'm worthless", or "muh motivation". I am a bad guy. I have done and said awful things in the past that can only be justified by the fact that I didn't think they were wrong at the time. No matter how many times I ask I will not be forgiven, and my past has come back to haunt me. I'm full of nothing but regret and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. I accept what I've done but I can't lie and tell people that the rumors are false anymore. I'm essentially cucked if I admit anything. I don't like being bad, and I don't think I still am, but who would believe that?
What do I do? It's encroaching upon my ability to go about the day.

Time to move to a new place and try to move on

first and foremost, tell us what you did. yes, it does matter, because it defines what you can or cannot do to move on.
but ultimately the easiest option is as the other anon said. move to a new place.

Can /adv/ help me get my finances in order? I make about 700 a week but I have a lot of bills with past due balances, most of witch in the 600-800 range. I'm thinking if I can somehow get my bills to fall on payday that would help greatly. I've already axed all the recreational stuff, and I'm seriously considering taking out a small loan to pay off said balances if I can get a decent monthly payment.
I'm fucking stupid as a brick when it comes to finances and whatnot, so anything would be helpful.

What's your debt situation look like? All bills besides rent/heat/phone/internet/insurance, etc.
Also what state?
>>
>>17817158
Can you give more details about the bills? Why would pay 800 a week in bills?
>>
>>17817158
we'd need to see waht your bills actually look like to know how to help you.
i managed to get my boss out of debt pretty fast, but yeah. if you're making minimum payments it might be easier to just put 800 at a time towards one bill until its paid off, then move to another.
this doesn't work well if they are all active bills that you use lin your current home tho

I feel I am finally ready to experience by first relationship. I am 26 and looking for a decent woman. Where do I begin?
My hobbies are male dominated and I hate going to bars and clubs. What are my options?
I don't want to go trolling around for women but would rather meet one spontaneously.

you are contradicting yourself. you cannot ask for advice on how to meet women and then say 'BUT I WANT TO MEET SPONTANEOUSLY'.
you cannot orchestrate spontaneity. your only option for that is to keep living your life and hope you meet one spontaneously. you can try to broaden your horizons and try new stuff in the hopes of meeting girls there.
>my hobbies are male dominated
but not male exclusive. so there is that. but your other option is to try new things, things that arent male dominated.
but the further you get into that the more you get into 'trolling around for women'.
>>
>>17817145
Just expanding your social circle in general is useful. Friends and acquaintances are a good way to meet new people and maybe find a woman you could be interested in.
>>
>>17817145
As others have said: live your life and meet women. You don't need to go to bars, but hang out with friends and join social outings (birthdays, new year, etc.)
Have fun and meet people.

22 female here. I've had a comfortable, close friendship with a guy online for two years. we get along well since we both have the same interests and can play video games together literally all day, and nothing really ambitious is happening in our lives that takes away time from each other.
the thing is, he's incredibly lazy not just in what we do, but his whole life in general, refusing to get a job or go to school. he won't call me his girlfriend even though he acts like I am, because he "wants to be free," which I think is an excuse to just keep being lazy.
I already put in the time and money, on my own, to visit him, where he seemed very genuine and acted like we were in a relationship. but when I left, he wasn't phased and never pushed for another meet.
after more pushing on my end he's "allowing" me to come stay with him for a month, even though I tried to convince him to come visit me instead, he completely refuses because "lazy" and having never flown. although I can pay to see him again, he won't even offer to pay for me. I can tolerate it if he's just emotionally stunted, but I don't know if he's knowingly leading me on.
tl;dr should I keep trying to make things work with a lazy guy who never says he wants a relationship, but acts like it?

its not leading you on.
he literally says
>I DONT WANT A RELATIONSHIP.
you literally said
>after more pushing on MY END hes 'allowing" me to come stay with a month
hes made it clear. he gave leeway on your side because it seems to be something you want. but he made it clear. hes fine with a fling. its not 'lazy' to /not/ date someone who lives so far away that it takes a vacation to go visit them. it requires flying in a plane for christs sake, its not lazy to say 'nah id rather be single than put up with that and try to uprooot my entire fucking life to figure out how to accomodate you'.
hes laid down what hes willing to do, play video games, do romantic stuff if / when you visit. but hes made it clear hes not uprooting his life to accomodate some girl he met on a video game.
you aren't in the wrong for wnating what you want but dont blame him. dont call him lazy. dont say hes leading you on. becuase by your own account hes been 100% honest with what he wants and what level of you he is comfortable with.
if i were you I'd move on.
>>
Dump him. Reading this thread was a waste of my time for something so obvious.
The interesting question is, as a 22 year old girl, why are you trying stick to this guy? What happened to you in your life to feel this way about someone who has no respect for you?

I broke up with gf from 4 years and went no contact a week ago. From that moment I can't concentrate on anything. I've wasted this entire week playing vidya when I should be studying for a math test coming on Tuesday!
It feels so painful. She was my best friend. I feel I've lost a part of myself.
I suspect she's in a rebound relationship with a guy online from another country. That makes things worse, but at least I know they won't have physical interaction.
How can I focus on my studies in this situation?

I need some advice.
I went to home school all of my life (I'm 17 right now and I know this is an 18+ board, but I act suprisingly older than what I actually am) and that really affected my socialization skills and behavior towards other people. Don't take it the wrong way though, I've been out in public and at a few concerts with my sister. So I know how to act and how to behave in public and online. Anyway, I was told on Steam that I act Sociopathic and Narcissistic by at least 2 to 3 different people. I brushed it off for like a month before I realized that some of the things I do are kinda sociopathic and narcissistic. I need advice on whether or not should I just improve myself on caring for others and making more friends or just do nothing about it. This has been bothering me for the past week and I just kinda need closure on the situation. (Pic Not Related, I just needed something to post)

Be a little more specific, what kinds of things do you do/say to upset people like this?

You probably are since you don't have social skills to help you see what is and isn't acceptable to say to other people
Basically think before you speak and try to think like a normal person

I think I usually treat people with respect online and IRL. Is it possible that what I do may come across as rude
