Sup /adv, femanon here.

So I have been dating my boyfriend for about a year now. He's your usual socially awkward, shy guy who usually spends his days on his PC doing his computer science stuff.

We became a couple accidentally, and how we met was also quite accidental. We are happy in the relationship even though it is currently an LDR because I have to complete my year abroad as a part of my college language course. So sometimes we fly over to see each other.

I am his first girlfriend, the first girl he had slept with, etc. I am slightly more experienced than he is on the dating scene (we are both 21).

I am true to my feelings for him, and I am not afraid to tell him that I love him. Thing is that he is still unsure if he loves me. He says he "likes me" and that he takes things slow, but I mean, we have been already together for like a year, I think he should have already made up his mind.

We call often and message every day. He only just left from a visit a few days ago. We both had a cry about it.

Another thing is that he is not jealous at all about me. He says it is because he trusts me, but there seems to be a difference between trusting and not caring.

I dont know what to think. It hurts me, and almost feel unrequited. When I say something about my feelings for him he just usually responds with an "ok" or silence. I feel like I am stuck in limbo.

Could he love me?
Could it be just because he is so awkward?

How long have you been together?

How many previous relationships have YOU had?
>>
>>17801937
We have been together for almost one year.

I have been through two very serious relationships (one where I actually lived with the guy), and a few cases of dating that I wouldnt even refer to as a relationship (as in too short-lived).

I have had three sexual partners before him.
>>
He probably does love you, but he's not sure what it really feels like to be in love.

That's cute that he trusts you like that, you should break his heart so he learns not to trust anyone and becomes hateful and bitter

Some time ago I've met this chick. At first I thought she's posing as this artsy intellectual pixie dream girl, but as I got to know her more she turned to be really cool. Last time I met her we kinda ended up hanging out at her house smoking weed and playing video games and it was awesome. The problem is she's 26 and as far as I know she hadn't been dating anyone since highschool. Still I'm pretty sure she's not a lesbian, because in her social circle people are pretty open about that. Also I don't think she's asexual because I know she's on Tinder. Dear /co/, should I go for it or run away? She seems normal and really smart, regular build, not a landwhale and no crazy tumblr feminist, but still it's really weird for a girl to be single that long.

anyways, just ask her for a date. The worst thing that will happen is that she declines.
>>
>>17801913
Sorry, I'm browsing /co/ at the same time and got it mixed up.

I'm not that affraid she would say no, I've been rejected before and I can deal with this. Thing that frightens me is fact she remains single for so long. Should I ask her about that?
>>
>>17801940
No
Just go for it

I think my girlfriend is unhealthily obsessed with Skyrim.
Normally I wouldn't care, but she just kinda sits around all day playing Skyrim and barely talking. That pretty much goes on all day and then she comes to bed and almost immediately falls asleep. She has other games and I suggest games we can play together, but all she ever wants to do is play Skyrim. She considers it to be time that we spend together and she says that she really enjoys all of the time she spends with me, but in reality she could just be playing at home and there would be no real difference.

I've tried suggesting other games, cooking for her, bringing her snacks, and talking about random bs. She's down to watch a movie with me or go out to places for a little bit but after it's always back to Skyrim.

At this point we haven't had sex in about a month due to the ridiculous amount of time she spends playing Skyrim. The only reason I know she isn't cheating on me is because she spends all of her time at my place playing Skyrim. When she's not doing that, she's working (I drive her to and from work).

What should I do to calm her obsession with Skyrim? Should I be worried?

tl;dr: My gf never stops playing Skyrim and it's starting to get in the way. What do I do?
>>
>>17801898
1. acquire a second tv
2. obtain an immersive single player game
3. set these things up adjacent to her
4. play aforementioned game beside her while she skyrims (yes, skyrim is now a verb)
5. alternate which of you has to use headphones

this may or may not work for you, but i would love to find someone that would be content with this. i am the type that would rather spend downtime playing vidya than watching tv/movies 99% of the time, and it seems your gf may share this mindset

This is a hilarious situation

Just got hired at UPS, and apparently they don't allow employees to have beards? I start tomorrow and have had a neatly trimmed non-hipster beard for years with many other jobs, even in the food industry where it was completely acceptable. It's also just a seasonal job with no promise of getting full time. I need the money for the holidays but feel it's emasculating to shave a beard for a shitty job. I plan on going into work without shaving. But apparently there's a chance I'll be fired which is ridiculous. What would you do? I can't really afford to not go to work unless I have something else lined up.

Shave your beard. You are acting like you have dignity when you don't.
>>
>>17801749
If you desperately need the money and can't afford to lose the job, do what they fucking told you to do, you idiot. Willfully violating policy on your very first day would make an incredibly bad first impression, even if they didn't fire you right away.
>>
A while back, I decided that I wouldn't sell myself out for jobs. For example, I believe in a separation of work and personal life. If a company I applied to asked for some kind of personal information unrelated to the job such as access to my social media accounts as a requirement for the job, I would turn them down.

Have you been explicitly told that you would need to shave your beard as part of the hiring process? If not, I'd go in without shaving and see if anyone raises an issue. I so, I wouldn't even bother going.

Like you said, it's a seasonal job that likely won't result in a better position. It's not even worth much as far as selling yourself out goes.

I want to start streaming on twitch, playing retro video games and a couple other types of games. How cute would I have to be to make this successful? Any advice on getting started, or anyone with experience?

If you're a girl you need to at least be a 5/10. Just simply show clevage and wear tight clothing and lonely nerds with more money than sense will donate to you easily.

If you're a guy, don't bother.
>>
>>17801655
I'd say at least 7/10. OP, post pics.
>>
You can do well without being cute at all by being entertaining or offering in-depth insight of the game you're playing. You know, that's how male streamers manage to do it.

If you're a bad streamer your chances of making a buck from twitch are REALLY low, even if you're really hot. If you're serious about it I suggest you figure out how to be a good entertainer rather than a pretty face. And I'll warn you that most people who try to make a living off twitch fail and those who succeed have to put a lot of dedication into it and they'll still have a pretty long period where they'll work on it and make nothing or close to nothing off it.

"Hey Mom, thinking about installing that security cameras I bought you?"

Who else /retarded parents/ here?

She won't even file a Police Report. Sure, it's $20 glasses and theres no point, but just her mindset is what upsets me.

She blew all this money on nice stuff for herself and our house, but she doesnt buy anything to protect it.

Motion lights don't work, no fence, 60 year old locks, climbable shit in the backyard, big screen door in the back, no security system, no cameras, nothing.

All I literally have to do is get on a ladder, drill a few holes outside, and wire everything internally.

A day project at best - I don't regularly use powertools and would have to move plenty of things within a few rooms.

Such is life living in NYC. Rent is so high and I don't make enough to move out.

Hey /adv/ finally decided to get this off my chest.
I literally scared having sex now. When i fucked a girl first time i went soft after while and it was embarassing as fuck. No i'm fucking the same girl after 5 months in 3 days. I'm scared that i might go soft, again.. i know she likes rough sex and i don't that much. Anyways how can i reduce my fear? I can't drink cuz im driving. Too late to buy cialis or anything (wouldn't arrive in time). I know it's just in my head cuz my dick works perfectly fine when i'm alone. Maybe i should get rid off my own insecurities before going in to relationship idk. Should i just try not to think about it and if it happens again i could buy like cialis or something.
Bro's and sis's pls help me out.

Work out your own securities with baby steps first. No one goes from 0-60 unless they can handle it. You obviously cannot.

I've been slowly trying to brute force my social anxiety and awkwardness away by accepting more social invitations even if I don't feel like it. Occasionally I have success enjoy conversations and togetherness but usually my instinct was correct the whole time, I didn't feel like I wanted to be with people because I didn't have enough energy for them. What I mean by that is, I get hit by a giant wave of apathy and the only thoughts I can find are "I need to get the hell out of here and find a place where you can relax." My expression gets serious, I have trouble making eye contact or bringing up topics. If someone asks about my behavior, the result is often an anxiety attack.

I know I need to keep pushing my boundaries to grow as a person but how do I avoid situations like this or at least handle them more gracefully?

you need to look after your mental health and well being. if you live a happy life and build confidence in yourself, situations like this won't induce so much anxiety. or, at least you'll be able to remove yourself from the situation in an appropriate and graceful way.

Well my biggest unhappiness is tfw no gf and it's the reason I'm trying to become more socially competent. It's kind of a vicious cycle.
>>
I should add more detail. I'm pretty sure the biggest stressor here is guilt. I feel really bad when I fail to provide a friend with a pleasant afternoon or when I make the host feel bad that I left early. People notice my anxiety and I can see on their face that it bothers them, I feel so bad that I get even more anxious.

I think you need attention from others. How is your group of friends? Do you have a boyfriend or girlfriend?

>>17801565
back in high school I used to think that the only reason I'd start doing badly in school was actually because on a subconscious level I enjoyed the idea of working my way to the top, so I'd end up sabotaging my progress whenever things would start to look good. It was a way of spicing up my life with more emotion, I guess.

I'm still not entirely confident if that was the actual reason, but it might apply to you.

Also, the main reason I even opened this thread is because that pic of goku is really fucking cool.

I can relate to this.

I think that to an extent you're what you want to be, but you don't chose what your desires are.

I been working with this girl(18) for the past ~7 months. About 2 months ago I build up enough confidence and asked her out. She responded with a “sure”, but said “not today I gotta go home” when I asked her for her phone number. After that, it was awkward between us. For about a month we stopped saying “hi” to each other and basically tried to avoid each other. But now for the past 3weeks it has been quite the opposite. We have been getting along better than we ever have been.
I still like her and want her to know that I like her. My parents always showed me good work ethics, and i always help everyone, especially her when we are working. She has told me several times that I'm very kind and nice. I don't know what else to do, other than being nice, to show her that I'm still interested in her.

You're in the friend zone by the sounds of it. You already asked her and she never followed up. If she was interested she would have followed up.

Save yourself some time, and work on a new girl.

Hey /adv/

So, I am inferior. I am short, ugly, dumb, also my penis is small. This means that in life I will have less success. I will have to work very hard to get things that gifted people will get easily. Worst part is, this is often caused by other people. Who treat me poorly (differently than they would treat someone gifted).

Obviously this applies to many people. Pretty much everyone actually (to some extent). And everyone somehow deals with it without being angry, even though it is absolutely logical to be angry. It makes all the sense. Or does it not?

How do you deal with your inferiority?

>>17801051
Your logic is faulty.

Let's say you are short and all those other things. That does NOT automatically mean you will be a failure. (Google "short successful men," "ugly successful men" and the like).

It MIGHT mean that you will have to be more determined and active in achieving what other guys might find easier.

But isn't it the more logical move to take your "handicaps" as motivations to work that extra harder to achieve, instead of using them as excuses for not even trying?

You may or may not fail in life. But find another excuse if you do.
>>
>>17801074
>Let's say you are short and all those other things. That does NOT automatically mean you will be a failure.
Sure, but it does mean I am much more likely to be a failure.

>It MIGHT mean that you will have to be more determined and active in achieving what other guys might find easier.
This also.

>But isn't it the more logical move to take your "handicaps" as motivations to work that extra harder to achieve, instead of using them as excuses for not even trying?
It's not more logical. It's other people who put these handicaps into place. Who punish me for them. And I should just accept it?
>>
>>17801079
No, don't accept it. Fight back. Win in spite of everything.

Living well is the best revenge.

Sorry in advance for massive greentext:

>Dating this girl for 11 months
>Generally fine, common interest, similar sense of humour
>Except that quarrels tend to happen around special occasions (i.e. vacations, birthdays etc)
>She tends to threaten to break up when quarreling
>She pulls this shit again recently
>I get pissed and tell her fine, let's split then
>Leaves her stuff on her doorstep
>She calls, says she wants to talk

You probably dodgeg a bullet there OP
Girls that threaten to break up are generally unstable people. Better end it before you are completely trapped

I would just say that she might be triggered (hate myself for using that word) by special occasions. My mom is the same, except I can't break up with her. And this greentdxt happened like 12 hours ago

>few days ago
>mom days big party on Saturday
>tell me to check bus times
>we live a minute from bus terminal
>I tell her 230
>she gets out of work at 2 so fine
>calls me at 1 as she left early
>says were leaving at 130 instead
>panic cause I need to shave shower etc
>tell her I'm ready at like 125
>she says no we wont make it
>she says I said 230
>I get pissed and tell her I'm going to pharmacy
>I go get my wallet and she's rushing me out the door saying we go for the 130
>YOU JUST SAID 230 BITCH

She also flipped out cause I was wearing a white hoodie with a light stain. Like no one is gonna care. But she's done this her whole life with special occasions

>you're wearing that? Ugh
>don't forget to bring the present!
>WHERE ARE YOU WERE LEAVING

Other then that, we hardly ever argue. But its guaranteed for a special occasion. If its too much for you, break it off.
>>
>>17801042
Do you want to keep her?
You did the right thing by letting her go regardless. Her threatening to leave is some stupid power play shit. When she comes back, and they usually do if they have been threatening it for a while, she will most likely be better behaved desu.
Realistically your going to have to deal with some stupid girl shit no matter which woman you are in a relationship with. So the real question is if you want to deal with having a girlfriend right now.
