I'm 24, I've been dating a girl for a little over a year now, she's 22. I've gotta say she's really special to me. Her mother however is overbearing. She's rude, in her 60s, pretty racist.

It wasn't too bad at first. She used to just pressure me about my career decisions. I don't want to be an engineer or a doctor. I just want to be simple, like an electrican. My girlfriend is the same way. We've both talked about it extensively. We want to live small and simple in a cheap area, preferable far away from cities and people. We want education, but we don't want to spend then next decade of our lives learning to be things that have no guarantee, its not for us but I understand it's important for other people.

Lately things have gotten worse. To the point where I cant ignore it. She tells my girl friend to look for richer men, right in front of me. It's embarrassing, I'm left speechless with how rude she can be. I don't say anything. It doesn't influence her, but its rude as fuck.

What do?

we have time

I've met this woman at her work. She told me she is 53yo, but I promise she looks at most 35 (awesome genes). Clear eyes, blonde, no ring on her fingers nor husband on her facebook.
She told me to call her if I have any doubt, but this could be interpreted in many ways.
Should I try something?

I'm in my twenties, btw.

>Pic obviously not related.

I add this from the last thread:
We joked for a second about her age. I told her that she look a lot younger. She thanked to me, and said "Everybody thinks the same. This happened to my mother too." She blushed a bit and avoided my gaze for a second, I let out a gentle laugh, and she kept talking (see OP) with a sweeter voice.

Here is the problem my family is having in the most concise manner I can describe:

We changed ISPs after moving, since Sky Broadband disconnected us and simply didn't want to help us, so my father changed back to British Telecom.

At first things were fine, but around the time a thunderstorm occurred, I started getting random disconnects. The router often keeps showing an orange light at the bottom (it's a BT hub) which basically means it can't communicate with the internet, or whatever the technical term is.

1. The disconnects are mostly random, regardless of how I am using the internet. Even if I am just using my PS3 (without really using much bandwidth) it still disconnects.

2. The disconnects often require me to close ALL of the programs on my laptop that use the internet, even ones that barely take up any bandwidth, once I do this, I can reconnect to the internet just fine.

3. The disconnects happen very suddenly, so I think sometimes it will just disconnect if I open a new link for instance. It's very annoying.

BT have already monitored the connection for a 48 hour period and caught a few disconnects, but in a very professional way they didn't call my father back to tell us what happened. My father is trying to get in touch with them, but he couldn't last night as the phone line was held up by other callers.

Another thing that may be of interest, the BT hub is very close to the Television and Phone. I dunno if this is causing issues in and of itself though.

Some advice would be useful. I am a video gamer, so if this happens while gaming, it will be pretty freaking inconvenient and disastrous.

Does anyone know what usually causes issues such as this?

>>17807055

I have BT and get exactly the same. It seems worse in winter but happens all year round. I say I get about 5-10 disconnects a day where the orange bit just starts flashing randomly. My gut feelin thinks it might actually be the line/box on the pole itself, if weather seems to make disconnects more frequent.

No solutions unfortunately, but I'll be following closely

Could've suffered a power surge.

What's their policy for replacing their modems?

Also, perhaps a dumb question, but have you ever restarted it?
>>
>>17807071
What do you mean by restart? Turning it on and off again or restoring to an earlier firmware?

My fiance and I have been together for a while now, we're thinking about getting married late next year.
She's great, I lover her, theres just one slight problem. We both want kids, of that we're sure. However she is Asian (Chinese) and I am white.
to be honest I'm not exactly excited about raising a halfie, they seem to be discriminated against, have identity issues and such.
So, one alternative I've thought about is to use a white surrogate mother. I wouldn't want to adopt since the child wouldn't really be mine then.

So how do I break the ice about us using a surrogate mother? anyone have any similar experiences?

I'm a married 28 year old man. About a year ago I had a one night stand with a friend of a friend that I haven't seen since. However very recently I find out that she has given birth, and she contacted me to tell me this and also claim I am the father. The dates matched up but I was still sceptical, got a paternity test confirmed and it is indeed mine.

How the fuck do I approach my wife about this?

You're fucking stupid. That said, just tell her. There's no way to sugar coat this type of news.
>>
wow you're lucky I wish I had half exciting as life as you and I am same age

what you should do is well it depends on were you married at the time of this one night stand in other words did you cheat on your wife? that would make this very awkward indeed but in either case you have to come clean because this bitch will force you to go on maury and make you seem like a piece of shit

take a paternity test, face the music. you'll have to pay the piper no matter what you do

maybe next time you'll use a condom. god bless

I seem to be extremely attracted to losers.

I just want someone who I can rely on to remain trustworthy no matter what and someone to take care of. I want someone to depend on me.

Is it bad?

Doesn't sound like it, right? But what if I secretly WANT them to fail at whatever they do so they'd depend on me even more? Doesn't mean I'd actually sabotage them or anything, but the mere fact that it's what I may want is bad enough, isn't it?

I thought I fell in love with someone but then I started thinking and noticing some patterns and came to this conclusion. Can this even be called love, if it is true? That makes me a chaser, kind of, right? Like this is my fetish, but an emotional one instead of sexual.

Is there a term for it? Anyone got any information?

I hope I'm just overthinking it and being paranoid (which I do often).

You just seem like you have such low self-esteem that you think you're only worth (or able to maintain) a co-dependent relationship.

Just work on you, and your worth, then you won't feel like only someone who is needy or down-on-their-luck would have you. You need to build enough self-worth to know that someone would be happy to be with you, and lucky to have you.
>>
>>17807033
I do have low self esteem and your reply is what I've already considered.

However it does not explain why my feelings for someone would only go stronger the more trouble they're in.

Settling for someone "safe" is something you do knowingly and willingly. You make concessions and settle for someone you know isn't your dream partner, but the safety of the relationship is what makes up for it.

This isn't the same with me. The worse they are doing the more I feel that I want them and the closer they become to my dream partner.

In school there was this new girl I had a huge crush on because she was new and a somewhat of a social outcast. But as time went by and she turned into a 'normie' I gradually lost all my interest.

Incidentally (and this is where the negative part of whatever this is comes into play) I occasionally teased her with others, just to reinforce her outcast position. Maybe we were just kids and kids tease those they have a crush on (don't they?) and I'm just overthinking this or maybe there is something more sinister about and I need to fix it, assuming it's even doable?

A friend of mine received an email from some douchebag slamming a company I just started. The email came from a yahoo acct [email protected] from someone going by the name Peter Lynn who states that he works or, is associated with the FCC. From doing a google search the only professional person with that name on the web is a kite maker from New Zeland named Peter Lynn.

I want to find out who the person is that created this account so I can expose them and bury them.

How can I do that?

Hi /adv/ I was going to go on /b/ to ask this but I realised that would probably be fruitless, or would derail into banana guy and spiderman.

I'm late 20s, over two years into practising as a lawyer and I'm feeling a constricting, depressing sense of my youth and life being wasted. I just kept my head down and grinded through all uni whilst being smothered in family bullshit and keeping to myself. No girlfriend, no excitement, no adventure and no good memories. I mean, I had fun and have a great group of friends and co-workers but it's not enough.

I thought life would kick in and I'd be happy but it never came. How silly I was to think that it would happen without doing anything fun or dangerous, but I guess I was fooled by movies and TV where everyone has a happy ending and some serendipitous encounter will lead to true love. God that sounds stupid when you actually write it out. I thought optimism was a virtue, but it's just a crutch that slowly lures you away from where you need to be.

Sorry to go on. The sum total of things is I Want w to do something different and stupid and leave it all behind.

What would you do? I want to do something crazy like leave for south America or Europe (ausfag) and see what happens. I'm just completely ignorant of what I can do and where. I've got no dependents or anything I can't leave behind. Thank you for any help.

Changing where you live will only temporarily distract you from some underlying issue or trauma you're not dealing with.

You have to realize that in the real world, the only person you can rely on is yourself. It's all a game really. As you acquire more wealth and age, you'll have the external appearance and trappings of a happy life. But true happiness comes from within.
>>
>>17806940
thats a bad idea and you won't be any happier for it. Youll reach your destination in excitment and then quickly end up broke, miserable and depressed in foreign lands with no way back.

Find a goal and persue it. Be it financial success, a family, or seeing the world.

Dont just throw caution to the wind, have a real plan, make sure your needs can be taken care of and if it falls through you have a way out. dont make the last 20 years meaningless because it wasnt the adventure you hoped it would be.

Instead sit down and have a serious think about what you want out of your existence, and make it happen.

Whats it sounds like you have is just a whim.

>>17806940
Have heard this before. You don't make a more exciting life by escaping your current one. Prepare yourself for a midlife crisis.

Yeah, he could be insecure, maybe worry about what the ocean's bros are going to say about him behind his back, but nigga that shit don't PHASE him. He's a chicken.

Hey adv. Need some not depressing advice.
So in my country we have this thing where everybody dresses up on the first Friday of December, like everyone else does on Halloween. It's not reaaallyy Halloween, but kind of. People dress up. Not normally sluttily, though.
So what I want to do is dress up as Quiet.
I've been wanting to for about two years now.
I'm really hesitating though. Going out in public half naked is.. Eh. It won't be too cold that day, and I think I could look half decent.
I just hope people won't think of me badly for doing it.
Might post pics of what I have so far (I just need to buy her military stuff which I will on Wednesday if I do decide to cosplay her.)

TL;DR Don't wanna seem needy but really have no reason to worry about it

So I have a new-ish girlfriend. I've had a lot of short-lived, shitty relationships but this girl is such a sweetheart it's jarring to be with her. It makes it hard not to spend a lot of time and energy (but not money yet) on her because she deserves it. She constantly tells me how much she appreciates it and how much she, quote, adores spending time with me. How happy I make her, how she loves when I come over, how her friends like how I treat her, how I turn her on, how she breaks down certain boundaries for me, enjoys co-sleeping, etc

But for some dumb reason my brain tells me that spending all this time and doing nice things to brighten her day is too needy. For SOME REASON I keep thinking she's getting put off by me putting a lot of effort into her.

I almost called her out over text one day but decided to let it sit until I saw her again. We hung out the next night (tonight) and the first thing she did was smile, rub my chest, kiss me, thank me for coming over, and ask me how my day was. Somehow hanging out for an hour became four. So clearly there was nothing to worry about. But then I'm driving home and we had talked about seeing each other tomorrow and potentially Wednesday and I feel like I'm needy or something for asking for so much time.

What the fuck is wrong with me? Why can't I just let myself be happy?

You let something other than yourself dictate your expectations of what you should be like, or how your relationship should work.

It isn't something youll get a hold of in just a handful of days.
Accept this, work on getting over it, and more importantly, talk to your gf about it. This is a problem that can/is affecting your relationship together. You should let her in on it.
>>
>>17806839
You've been brainwashed by TV and media that you should be having problems and drama. You don't know that you can have a nice life with a sane, appreciative girlfriend. You even thought about starting a fight/drama because you've been brainwashed into thinking that your relationship should have more friction. Stop being a dumb ass and appreciate the blessing you have been given.
