Attainable natty? If so any tips?

Yes.
Tips: fucking wait and pray you have good genetics. If you have the right genetics that kind of build it will take literally a decade.

healthy bulk and hope you have good genetics. most people cant get a build like that natty, they end up starting to get fat.

>be me
>studying computer science
>hate it
>want to drop it and study psychology

Computer science would give me a stable financial future, but it gives me tons of anxiety and stress. Psychology is a lot more risky, but it's what I would actually like. Should I drop everything and start over? I would be a year behind from all of my friends. I'm lost, please give some advice.

Actually you've got it backwards. CS funnels you into a job in CS and nothing else. Psychology gives you a lot more options, from academia through counseling to such purely business areas as HR, sales, management, etc.
>>
>>17771834
are you trying to justify why you studied psychology instead of CS or are you just retarded ?
>>
>>17771834
So in that case, the obvious decision would be psychology? Still not quite sure though

(End of a conversation I had with a girl I met on Tinder.) I want to wait a while before I say something else. I feel like came off like a fuckboy. Did I blow it? I want to apologize for being too forward. What should I do?

She's not interested, move on. It's just Tinder.
>>
>>17771713
guessing you're green. i wouldent say you sound like a fuckboy. she just doesent sound sure about you, and honestly she sounds a bit apathetic. women are often like until you have been speaking to them for a few days. its annoying but its how it is.
>>
Stop spilling your spaghetti. You shouldn't have mentioned " hanging" twice so soon. If you have HBO you could've just let them know you do and the implication is there. Don't apologize, but you may have missed your chance with this one. Let conversation flow;ask about themselves not what they like. You end up writing yourself into a corner.

So long story short, I got depressed last year when I started my first job and moved from my parents. With time, I reconnected with my friends, I got a gf that I love and I started taking lexapro to handle the stress. I'm almost off the meds, I have reconnected to the interests I'd lost, I'm more outgoing at work and I no longer cry in my bed eveytime I get home.

Yet this intense period of introspection and overthinking seems to still be going on. I've always been of the thinking type, but when I was depressed it got so bad that I couldn't have sex without thinking about having sex (I've always had a confused sexual identity so doesn't help).
Life feels like half acting and half spectating, and while I enjoy the things I do, I can't stop having metaphysical thoughts about every thing while I'm doing that thing, if that makes sense. Every activity, I think of in relationship to my past and my future. I live in the present, but not quite. These feelings make me feel nostalgic for when I used to just enjoy myself and not give two shits.

Is it possible that I fucked up my neural pathways so that I can't live the present anymore? Is there a way to train myself to get better? Meditation? It's like everytime I catch myself spacing out, I think about why I'm spacing out instead of just doing what I'm doing and enjoying it.

I can relate to most of this. I feel like an alien and at times it's gotten me to want to kill myself. I'm hoping a skydive can somehow break me out of it.

Is this the intj circlejerk thread?

>>17771649
I don't think the depression fucked you over nearly as much as the lexapro did.
Habits trained during the depressive period are probably going to stay with you for a while, although different kinds of therapy might help.

i got it bad, guys.

before you go judging me you should know that i didn't know he was married when i met him. our relationship has been purely sexual from the start, but now i'm actually in love with him and i don't know what to do about it. how can i convince him to leave his wife?

Life is about spreading our DNA, thats our primal intstinct. In my opinion making babies is the neaning of life. Its all a game OP, we live to die, and the only thing we leave behind are kids. By not having kids, youre ending your DNA. Wiping you from existence forever

Life is about struggle.

I think life is about trying to find happiness. Mostly by connecting with people and trying to spread happiness and stop suffering.

Give me your best advice for fixing a destroyed relationship. Broken trust, insecurities, constant fighting, mismatched world views. I want to die trying to fix this piece of shit and so does she.

You don't. If she caused this whole mess, abandon her and leave her to rot. She ruined a good thing. However if you caused it, you have to call it off and leave her to get your own act together.

< university student
<had my last exam today
<Noticed that i had my phone in my pocket in the middle of the exam
<Panicked and tried to hide it in the pocket of my jacket.
<Acted suspiciously worried during the last hour
<Was caught
< When the examiner looked away i kicked the phone to the spot next to me
<Was caught again

The good thing is that my phone was off during that exam. So after that the examiner took my phone and student card. Had to write a report of the little accident that happened. Nowadays i am waiting for a call from them to either talk about it peacefully or had me punished for me being stupid.

Any advice? What should i say when they call

Well at my university, having your cellphone on you during an exam is misconduct, whether you used it or otherwise. Unless it's a shitty candybar phone, you're probably going to face consequences, because even if the call log and your messages are empty or show that you didn't send or receive anything during the exam, you could have been on the internet for all they know. Sure, they could get information from your provider, but that's more effort than it's worth. Plus, if your university is anything like mine, you were probably reminded repeatedly to check you don't have your phone on you.
>>
what do you mean by caught, they looked at you or they went over and talked to you?

Did the exam officials actually see you looking at your phone? did they tell you they saw you looking at your phone?

If yes, be emphatic that your phone was off and you didn't look at it.

If not, I would just try to be honest with them. You forgot that you had your phone on you, panicked when you realized it was on you, and that made you nervous so you tried to take it off your person.

Is taking pictures of scenery with people in it illegal? Some lady was pretty mad I took a beautiful photograph of the scenery around me, and she was claiming I snapped a picture of her, which I did not. I am a professional photographer, i know what I am doing. She kept shouting cops and i got the fuck out of there. Can I be charged because of a photo lol?

It is incredibly annoying. I spend half my day getting advice from people who honestly are not that bright themselves. I work for this old racist bitch of a woman. She keeps giving my hours to either her favorite boys or this typical black woman who hates doing anything which requires energy.

What does she do? give me retarded advice like "Yeah we have to be nice to people" or "Don't touch the computer you don't know how it works" or this and that. I have a BS in biology and I am working on my math major. This woman has never walked outside her own office, yet she thinks I am a little dumb child.

Same thing goes for my relatives. Give me no respect yet the pedophile in our family is god's gift to humanity. Same thing with my professors, my grades are higher than other students but they talk to me like I am dumb shit.

Is it my look perhaps? is it because I am polite and nice? is it because I am quiet? I don't fucking get it but I am starting to get sick of being treated this way. What do I do which leads people on to believe I am stupid (maybe because I have an accent?).

I can't handle anymore and lately I am just being rude back to people and it seems they are dealing with it. I do have anxiety and I used to have bad social anxiety, but I have slowly overcome it now.
>>
>>17771405
Nothing you can do about your boss. Basically do some extracurricular work for your job and prove you are smart. Grades dont mean anything. Talking to your professor more gives them more chances for them to think you are stupid. A smart kid with bad grades is unmotivated. A dumb kid who ask for help all the time to get a b is still dumb.

What do I do to stop being boring?

I never thought of myself as boring. I just always wanted to fit in, be friendly to everyone, helpful, considerate, and I think I am those things. But I also think this is something extremely grey and boring.

I am in a theatre group at university, I act, I also love to write, I try to hold interesting conversations and I am, like I said, friendly and considerate. I also seem to get laughs from people regularely because I can be witty from time to time. Nontheless all off my dates so far ended with girls either not being interested any more, or straight up telling me that I'm a nice sympathetic guy but nothing more - and I guess because I'm just flat out too boring.

Do I have to become one of those bad guys to become interesting or is this a meme? I do shit, I mean I do shit with my full heart, like acting, sports and writing, how am I boring? I really wanna fix this, because I met a really awesome girl who may or not be into me and I don't wanna scare her away too by just being a fuckboring guy.

Is this just bad luck then? I mean, how come that so far everything what attracted my dates in the first place, wasn't enough to hold on to them in the initial stage?

I am aware that I can't do the same old schtick all the time if I wanna hold on to a girl, but so far I couldn't even get second dates until now.
Girl said she's into theatre and culture and doing shit, nature, hiking, so I thought I either take her to a play or to a longer walk along some riverside here in town at night, that's sort of romantic and shit, but I don't wanna bore her away too, fuck me.

Or are girls just so shallow that they pretend to be cultured and interested in shit, and if you actually do that shit, talk about that shit and participate in that shit they realize that they don't care?

Everyone hates these people. They are the ones who will never argue with you and always try to pacify everyone when there is an argument. God you remind me of that fag from college I hung out with
>yo what do you want to do today
>hurr whatever you want to do
Fuck I hate people like you.

So basically I just started online dating for the first time but I'm unsure as to how to start a conversation. I don't want to come off as generic as creepy.

Suggestions?

Start off by complimenting her on domething she posted or tell her what made you choose her profile. Something like, "hey thanks for accepting my invite or whatever it is,! I really was interested in your profile when I read you are into photography and dinosaurs. I have been wanting to get my own camera for a white perhaps we can go out to buy one. Want to meet at the dinosaur exhibit at the museum on la brea?" Pick something or two from the profile and start the conversation there and that will lead to other things. Following the example, she can say " oh I've been to that museum it's Kane, I've really wanted to visit the one in the other city." " oh yeah, I hear that city has one if the best beaches too, perhaps we can take photos there together with my new camera. " Just a suggestion, good luck!

advice

I'm in a bit of a situation

Probably easier to tell it through greentext

>I'm 24, girl is 22
>dating current girlfriend for about 3.5 years
>previous to this relationship, I had dated the same girl for a few months but we broke up when she went away for school
>I was really hurt
>she came back and we got back together
>it's a pretty decent relationship, but I don't feel the fiery passion for her I did before
>still, here I am three years later with her
>she thinks we're going to get married
>I don't think I could see myself marrying her due to no passion and the breakup
>much of the time we do stuff, all I'm thinking about is how much more I'd be enjoying myself if I were with a different girl
>she gets along with my friends and family and is engrained in friend group now to a degree

I more or less feel like I've been living a lie for the past three and a half years. I think things need to end between us. What do I do?

Would seeing a therapist help with this? Sometimes I feel like I'm telling myself it needs to end because I'm still associating her with those negative feelings from the breakup or something.

IDK, any advice?

You do know you can end a relationship amicably, right? Relationships end, it's normal, no one ever said you had to be with her for the rest of your life. Not feeling any passion anymore is a completely reasonable reason to breakup.

>>17771351
>you can end a relationship amicably
but...how though?

Just talk it with her. Be honest about what's going on.
It's probably going to suck a lot, but you'll both get over it. The sooner (and the cleaner) you do it the better. Any time you spend in a relationship that doesn't make you happy anymore is not only a waste of your time but also of hers. If she still loves you, she'll need a lot of time to recover, but in the end you'll thank yourself for what you did.
Just go and be honest. Don't let her expectations (or anyone else's) define what this relationship has to be. You're both young, you'll be fine.

How do I improve my life overall?

I have a ton of problems, both minor and major, that have made my life stagnant but I fail to have the true motivation or will power to take steps to truly improve myself. Whats worse is that I really have no one to really talk to about it. I do see a therapist on a weekly basis but he can only do so much and has so far not been able to do much.

I feel like the biggest hurdles are:
No one to really help me or coach me in taking care of my issues

Lack of motivation due to pessimism/fear to kick my own ass and force myself to change

Is there some kind of service or program or self help book that would help me be able to solve my problems

What about your life do you want to improve? List them, both the minor and majors.

Same here man, though I started trying to fix my problems.

Got my mental health checked out and am now drinking medicine + know whats wrong with me.

Trying to get back on track with my college classes (hopefully I wont get kicked out) this is my first day of trying.

Started chatting with girls for the first time in years.

For me, the key thing was to think really hard about my life and what needs fixing, making a list of stuff I need to do, figure out and just doing them one by one.

I believe in you OP. Even though I just took the very first steps to a better life, it's better than nothing. If a loser like me can get off his ass and start making changes, so can you!

No friends since high school. Mostly likely due to social phobia

Never had a girlfriend or so much as a date for same reasons

shit part time job, can't seem to land an interview to get a better job. Not even sure if my field (Information Technology) is even really a good fit for me

Due to shit employment can't afford to move out of my parents house and get my own place or room with someone

Various psychological hang ups (such as the social phobia) that get in my way of accomplishment anything listed above

Improve physical fitness. This is probably the least troubling thing as I am not even overweight but could definitely use more exercise to improve my physique. I do go to the gym at least twice a week but I haven't seen much improvement

Guys I'm depressed. I struggle to shave and shower properly a lot of the time and I sleep 12 hours a day and I'm getting fat because I cant get up the will power to exercise or walk anywhere. I'm on antidepressants but I don't feel happy, although I'm not as depressed as I was. How do I cope? Are there truly happy people out there? If so how do I become one?

Take solace in the small things
Growing out of of a depression is like rolling up a shallow hill
It gets easier as it goes

Take one day and buy some good food
And then cook a good meal while listening to music

It grows on itself
Do small things for yourself and it's like a snowball rolling down hill
>>
No one's 100% happy or satisfied with their life..
When I was in your place I would just find stuff to fill my time and also maybe get passionate about them.
Get a job, go to the gym, start playing an instrument, meet new friends.
Don't even think about doing this all in once or even in a year, it's something you so gradually and eventually the bad thoughts will vanish since you're so busy and content with what you do.
Good luck
