Is this another self-help fraud, or is it actually onto something?

Somebody recommended it here on /adv/ so I thought I'd ask for more stories either confirming or denying this.

Most self help books are very useful but first you have to learn how to use what you find in them.

I can't tell you how to do that, but these books can. Once you commit yourself to skimming or even fully digesting all of these books then you will understand what I mean.

What's up guys

>Used to have a galaxy 6
>phone fell out of my pocket while I was working
>Phone fell on paint tray, sunk to the bottom
>Doesn't work properly anymore
>Thug friend that I've known for years hooks me up with an iPhone 6 S, or SE I think. Not sure

Apparently the phone still has the SIM card, and has the previous owners info.

How do I jailbreak/factory reset an iPhone 6? I tried searching it up on YouTube but I couldn't find any recent ones. Was hoping you guys had more updated info. Thank you c:

All you can do is contact the owner, there is no way to reset or use it for you. Also stop buying stolen shit, it's just dumb. SE is dirt cheap, just get it.

Also phone in pic is 6s.

Well, there aren't many other options. At least get your money back from Jamal.

The feds paid over a fucking million for a zero day exploit to crack an old iPhone with comparable weak security, the newer ones are practically uncrackable.

Chink stuff is a way if money is tight, and Lumia 635, it's windows phone so fewer apps but still works fine and costs just 60 bucks.

I know you said no meds. but Melatonin is not a bad idea. it does help you sleep.

If you wish to try to sleep without that, The best thing I can suggest is driving around for a couple hours. You'll wear your body out Mentally and Physically

For a six year relationship 1 month is nothing. 1 year may be nothing. Take your time, see a therapist as in someone neutral who you can talk to: how you feel, whats up with you and your whole situation.

>>17732623
my 5 year relationship finished 2 months ago and it's starting to get a lot easier now, first 6 weeks were hell for me.
something clicked in my head, i realised that nothing could be done about the situation so i should just let go of it and focus on the future because that's the thing i CAN change,
remove all the things in your life that remind you of the person, their sentimental value is gone now anyway since they don't care for you,
there's plenty of people like us we r gonna be fine promise ya buddy

First time /adv/ poster here and I need some advice concerning myself and my oneitis.

>fall in love with oneitis
>be me
>virgin
>she lives a few hours away
>we manage to see each other every other week or so
>I'm starting to realize my feelings for her arent mutual
>she seems interested in me. Shell put her head on my shoulder or chest, always sits right next to me, props her legs on me, teases me, touchs me often
>we have hooked up multiple times before but never fucked
>she has slept completely naked with me before
>I've fingered her and sucked on her titties also
>I've tried taking it farther but she won't let me
>kinda want to drop her for the good of my mental health
>these games really hurt my self esteem
>she has only kissed me once, she is not really receptive at all when I try to kiss her on the lips.
>I feel like I'm just one of her little backups

She is now in the process of moving really close to me. Shell pretty much be working and living in the next town over from me. This is really fucked up because I'm having thoughts of dropping her and now shell be living really close. I'm conflicted.

Idk what to do I still have feelings for her, I love spending time with her, we share the same hobbies. She makes me happy but at the same time she makes me miserable. But it just hurts that she doesn't feel the same way. I feel unbelievably depressed and just want to move on but shell be moving so close to me and its just going to make this so much harder.

>find someone else

Ever heard of the saying "diversify your assets"

Find someone who won't say no.
>>
>>17732685
The thing is I've never been good with girls. Sure, I can converse with random girls but being intimate with them is a totally different story. It took me so much just to come out of shell with this one. I've invested so much time with her too. She perfect for me, same exact hobbies and very similar hobbies.

I now have more experience now though so if another girl comes into my life, I'll be more confident. I just want her though

I live with my parents in a wealthy neighborhood but recently there has been a lot of petty crime lately of people breaking into cars that are parked outside. I knew we should have lived in a gated community. Just last night our neighbors across the street had their truck broken into. Now I'm worried because the crime was never that close. I was awake all night and would have confronted them if I knew. We park our cars inside so we're good for now, but if this is happening now then armed robbers are going to come next.

My parents are very anti-gun democrats and refuse to buy a gun for protection. Even if we got robbed at gunpoint they are the type who still wouldn't buy one. How do I convince my dad at least to stop being a cuck and buy some guns? And how can I alert myself when criminal filth are in the neighborhood so I can kill them, or at least call the pigs to come do it? I'd get a gun myself but I'd probably end up killing myself with it at some point to be honest, so I can't trust myself with one

You're the worst kind of person who could ever own a gun, because you would use it without thinking just to satisfy the hero complex that you desire, you will end up killing a relative or a dog walker.
Criminals are like foxes, they take opportunities when they see them
>If you park your vehicles off the road, they won't risk getting that close and being heard
>If you check your doors are locked, they aren't going to get in by trying the door
>If you don't leave valuables on the seat of your car, your windows won't be smashed so they could get your sat nav
>If you don't leave your windows open nobody will climb in.
>If you don't leave your keys visible from the doors/windows then robbers won't put a fishing line through and steal your cars
>If you have CCTV it acts as a deterrent
The best way to avoid being robbed is to not make yourself an easy target.

Thieves aren't working their way to your house, they are finding easy targets, they aren't bringing gangs in to roam your street and rape all the white women.
There's probably too many easy targets to rob near you to risk breaking into your house and taking your hentai body pillow.

Where?

Quick backstory;

>I was her first serious relationship, her first kiss and first everything else. We done many things together, were very close, opened up to each other basically just completely in love. But we broke up, nothing major happened but now shes saying she just don't like me anymore? This was our convo just now;

Me: (Long message of our ups and downs, and wanting to fix things, we've done so much together, lets not walk away from this etc)

Her: No I don't want you i dont like you no more seriously did you not listen to a word I said earlier
Like wtf i swear all i do is talk to a brick wall
???

Me: Feel like I'm talking to a brick wall too.

Her: Wtf how can you say that

Me: because of everything we been through it was worth fighting for to me, but you're acting like you don't want anything to do with me like I've cheated on you or something

Her: Fuck sake
You just don't understand do you no
Don't know how many fucking times i have to say it

Me: No you made it loud and clear, I go from being the best thing that's ever happened to you, us being so close, to you don't like me anymore and want nothing to do with me. I just wanted to try one last time, so I can move on without regrets. Because I did try hard, and I know I treated you good. But after today, I'm not contacting you anymore.

Her:Good im glad..finally, you make me sound like such a horrible pathetic person you know that dont you, why bother coming to see me earlier like seriously

Me: Yes finally the best thing we've had is over what a relief. And you make me feel worthless and not good enough, and I came to see you earlier to show you how much I care but obviously I'm just stupid

Her:What? and cause of the things you say to me and do
And yeah seriously
Whatever im going hope you have a lush life with out me

a single conversation can't gold a decision about your whole relationship with someone, identify if she was specifically mad about a situation, or your whole relationship, if it's the latter, maybe it's too much trouble at this point.
>>
>>17732556
Seems like it's over. The thing is why?
First of all,how old are you both?
How long have you been together?
What problems did you have in the relationship. She talks to you so bad,if you were great to her,why does she talk like that? She should at least show some respect and explain you why she wants to break up. So tell us more about your problems
>>
>>17732580
Still me
Also,since you are her very first,she should be more emotionally attached.

How do I stop being depressed over my height, /adv/? I'm a 5'5" male.

I can't stop thinking about it every single day. I can't stop comparing my height to every male and every object I pass.

Please help me. I'm at my wit's end. I don't know what else I can do.

I know I'm genetically inferior to taller people, and I accept that. That's not the issue with it. The issue is that I can't feel like a man or build any self confidence over it.

Please, /adv/, help me. I just don't know what to do anymore.

I'm a 5'3" man, and have never had a problem. Why does it bother you so much?

>>17732525
I don't know. /r9k/ made me aware of the manlet thing and ever since I just can't stop thinking about it. It kills me inside. I was fine before I went on there.

It's made me feel suicidal in the past, even though I know I'd never go through with it.

I feel like drinking alcohol is my only escape from the emotional torment of it. I just wish I was 5'9" or 5'10" or something. I'd kill for that.
>>
>>17732538
Your growth plates don't close until you're 22-25. As long as you keep a healthy diet and exercise you have a change of growing taller.
Not that being short is as big of a problem as /r9k/ makes it out to be. I know a 5'1" guy who is a captain in the army, and he doesn't get any shit for his height. I never had an issue with it, nor does any other short guy I know. Personality and achievements matter a lot more. It's like crying over not getting that 1 % chad face.

How do you deal with the fact that, as a healthy young man, you have an almost innate, healthy set of romantic and sexual desires that will likely not be fulfilled at any point in the future given your current state?

knowledge that at some point in the future your current state will be different

>>17732462
By spiralling further downwards. It's not a solution but it's how I deal with it. I'm nearly past the young man stage so hopefully these feelings will die off one day, they make me so bitter.

>>17732462
>any point in the future given your current state
What kind of shit tier logic is that? Your current state will change, it's up to you that the change is in a positive direction that allows you to fulfill whatever shit you want to fulfill.

Also the sooner your start, the sooner you'll arrive there.

When I start smoking weed regularly, my grades drop as expected. Do you think this is more likely due to the time consuming nature of getting high interfering with my study or more to do with a persistent cognitive impairment from a generous daily dose of thc?

Depends on whether you even attempt to study.

I do still attempt to study but I the difference is with no weed, I study in throughout the week and with weed I usually do all my studying on the weekend after it has piled up... Which I realize is precisely the way you aren't supposed to study.
>>
>>17732409
...then don't do that?

I smoked almost every night in college and graduated in a STEM major with a 3.8 gpa.

The trick is to treat it like a beer after school/work. Don't do it til everything gets done. Use it as a reward system.

I no longer smoke except 2-3 times a month due to work. I still use it as a reward from time to time with important stuff. Like if I have a huge project or cleaning to do at the house. Having the thought that after I finish I can do something or consume something fun motivates me even more to do the work and get it over with.

Basically my parents always kind of had a terrible way of bringing me up. I feel that they were almost not up to it and eventually it just went over their heads. They always lied to me and lead me on with false promises. I/E don't get a job in H.S so you can buy a car we will buy you a car...same with college even though I went behind their back and got a small one anyways. I wanted to go away and they lied about applications and such. Recently my father was going to bring me to an important interview a few cities away. I wasn't really into it(but was going to do it for the exp) and neither were they so basically he decided to take the wrong exit at least 3 times to ensure I would be late and not make it. Fast forward to a few days ago when I spotted a job for my father on the internet which has excellent benefits so I told him about it...He refused to apply unless I guided him aka did it for it. When I confronted my parents about how that is unacceptable for the child to do their parents job applications they scoffed as said I was wrong and out of place. Basically I called them shite parents and said that they are far to involved with everyone else than raising their own children and that they should wake the fuck up because they are complete jokes. Aside from this they always modeled their parental decisions of the fuck ups of other family members, ie he or she didn't messed it up so my kids will as well. We always had shit relations but lately I getting older and want to fix them but they are so fucking clueless and will never accept their faults because "we didn't know " or "but we told you". At this point I have no clue how to even approach them about it and honestly...don't even respect them as parents, but love is love I guess..even when the other party is basically detrimental to yoru success

I found out my girlfriend lied to me. Last week, I asked her what she was up to and she said she was just at home. I offered to come over and she said sure but to give her a 20 minute warning before I get there. Later, turns out I had forgotten to give her the warning, so when I drove to her house, her car wasn't there, which means she wasn't home. I gave her her warning and 20 minutes later, when I came back, she was back home, with going out clothes and make-up. I didn't say anything and she doesn't know I know. I asked if she had been home all day besides an errand she ran earlier in the day and she said yeah.

Should I bring this up? It's kind of killed my trust in her a little bit, but I also don't wanna make accusations without first having hard evidence. It just seems sketchy to me that she'd have to lie about being home if she was anywhere I wouldn't have to worry about. Is it even worth worrying about or bringing up? If so, how should I bring it up? Thanks, /adv/.

Personally I would bring it up in a non-accusatory way and gauge her response. If she apologizes and explains that it was a white lie and she is really trying to break the habit of telling those and that the situation wasn't what it seemed, OK. I would consider it a definite "strike one" to the relationship.

If she gets all defensive and starts telling more lies, yikes.

Don't bring it up yet; you'll blow your cover. Like you said, wait until you have hard evidence. You might have to do some creepy stalker shit like follow her or something, but it shouldn't be too hard to find out.

She's already lied to your face so if you bring it up to her, how can you really trust anything she tells you to explain herself? She'll only be more cautious and on her guard.
