i just dumped the shit out of my girlfriend and am full of regret.

i'm a sensitive, romantic, successful, dude. she's crazy about me, is hot, and amazing on paper in every way. we've had a mostly great 5 months and she's pretty awesome.

but she's often emotionally clueless in ways that make me really uncomfortable. for example, she wants to stay buds with all of her exes, and hangs out with male friends in ways that i think anyone would consider date-like, generally behaves behaves like her actions don't effect others.

i found out she was going to watch election results next week with some dude she talks about sex with all the time, and i dumped her cold.

we hashed it out and i honestly don't think infidelity has even crossed her mind, she's just clueless about how i feel, and i think she's insensitive and will inevitably invite more drama than i want. she's sad that i didn't bring up my discomfort with her boundary crossing and emotional distance, because she said could have learned to adapt and understand me. she's right-- i bottled it up, rationalized all the things i hated, and then popped when it went too far and dumped her.

i've been reading about differences in relationships and started wondering if she's not neuro-typical. it's hard for her to make eye contact, she hates loud noises, she has near singular obsessions with a topic or two at a time, she's awkward physically, has weird boundaries, is offensively direct, can communicate better in writing, and can't read social cues.

so whatever you want to call it (pic related) may be unimportant, but if she's different, maybe i could set some boundaries and learn to work with this? what do you think /adv/, should i give this another shot?

Given the context, I'd try to make up with her if I were you. You seem to genuinely like this girl. I hope she knows it and I hope the best for you two.

Yep, that sounds like the bergs. I have that shit too, it's makes me hard to function in general.

OP you should have talked to her. In fact I would say you are just as bad, if not worse, for that. In any healthy relationship you need to be able to talk to each other to communicate you feelings. People aren't mind readers. You say she wasn't emotionally clued in but I would say you're the one being immature. If your first reaction is to dump her then you should leave her alone for her sake, and not date anyone for a while because that just isn't right.
If she's kind enough to forgive you for being a headass then take her back and learn to fucking talk to your partner.
I've found that if they let you put your dick in them, they usually don't get too upset about some putting some feelings in too.

I have the same issue but I am the girlfriend and my boyfriend and I have had great repercussions in our relationship because of my behavior. I have PTSD from an abusive home (loud noises terrify me, express self poorly, prefer writing, oblivious socially) and a generally unforgiving upbringing with very poor health and no real socialization from my family. I hang out with men, have had a lot of male friends, and generally prefer men because I hate my mother, and enjoy male-dominated hobbies since I was a child. I violated our relationship's boundaries many times flirting/having sex when we were broken up/open relationship, et cetera.. got a beating real bad from my boyfriend once as well from this and generally very rocky relationship but incredibly hard to break up because of our attraction and compatibility. We worked on it.
Greatest advice I can give to you is to establish boundaries as soon as possible, and enforce them by immediately bringing up to her what is unacceptable behavior the moment you feel something is going the way you don't want it to. It is like training a dog, unfortunately. The boundaries must be black and white and laid out quite clearly so in her mind she knows that there is no gray area with her actions. Never assume she knows, never assume she just might not be so oblivious concerning something---consult together. Never bottle up your feelings and be as open as possible to what you feel because she lacks this on her part and needs you to be the one to guide her to open herself up as well. She will refuse, or not know how to, or this and that, but it is something that is extremely important for her to learn---how to process such feelings and discuss them in person, even if it causes great distress.
Either way if you think she's perfect but this is an issue, no problem, just work on it.

My coworker calls me a virgin and teases me because I'm a little shy and hate talking about sex or my personal life.

She and my boss laugh at my expense then call it "playing". One time an older coworker coughed & mumbled something, they looked around and asked who said something. Then my boss said "it was probably anon, I bet he talks to himself". When my boss transferred to my office first thing he did was stare at me on lunchbreak, frown and call me awkward. When I asked why they like being so mean to me they talked to me like I was a baby and said "nooo, we loooove you anon". It's annoying. They always treat me like a fucking invalid.

I don't know if it makes a difference that she gave me a reference before and he gets all worried when I'm sick or upset. But I can't tell if that's virtue signaling or not.

One's got 3 kids and the other has 1 kid.

Should I have them fired? I almost want to call Child Protective Services on the female because her daughter lives with her and her degenerate boyfriend who they previously investigated for child abuse. And I strongly suspect my boss is stealing.

I work about half my work day in one of more dangerous parts of Detroit. I live in the suburbs and I'm white. The worst part is I'm also losing my hair prematurely so I shave my head. There's no safe way to dress to blend in when your a white guy that shaves his head in Detroit. I don't want conflict so I try to blend in


Anyone know some street slag from Detroit?

I like rap music so I listen to amateur Detroit rappers on youtube. I understand some of the slag but not all.


What does "triple beam" mean?

What does "buro's" mean?

What does "jars" mean?

What does "slip" mean?

What does "choppa" mean?

What about "do a whole click" (I saw a black girl say this to a 3 other black chick)
Also any suggestions?

woah there polmaster
this is a blue board

So, some friends and I are organizing a party. We plan on heavy drinking and smoking, and some of us get noisy when in said state of mind.

You kniw any life hack so that the neighbours get as little pissed as possible? The fact that we'll be smoking makes me a lot more terrified of them calling the police.

Thanks in advance /adv/ !

keep it on the weekend or major holiday. explain that you are having a party in advance and if its too loud they can give you a call. try to have the party over by midnight.

I have no personality, I think it's mostly cause in all honesty, not trying to be edgy or say to damn good for it but talking to people does not interest me. People don't interest me. I realized this once when I was with a friend, a really nice girl who commented while we were sitting line a a pub "I love people, I wonder what they are all like, where they are going, what they are doing" after that I realized. Shit. I don't care about any of that.

I don't think that means you're broken. Not everyone is as socially driven. You can still enjoy talking to people now and then without being endlessly fascinated by them. What makes you say you have no personality anyway?

SO SO sick of being an introverted autismo, people around make connections so easy, I don't want to be lonely anymore, can't ever have a conversation without feeling like I am an interviewer. I blame all myself I know it's my fault, I need help.
I'd try r9k but I feel a bit better after not browsing it for the past few months

Well at least your not blaming others it's a start. If you suffer from real diagnosed social anxiety then seek counseling.
Otherwise you gotta do some soul searching.
If you dislike parts of yourself then improve. Hit the gym. Force yourself into social situations. Watch yt videos on conversation skills and most importantly find your self worth. Get a hobby or develop a skill and you will feel much better. Pursue your dreams and be happy with yourself, for if you get your own self worth from others then you will never feel worthy. Being an introvert isn't a disadvantage of you don't let it. Focus on what you are. You aren't a Chad who hooks up with basic bitches every night and that's ok. You are probably sensitive and shy and you just need to accept that, and improve on it. Build around it not over it. Be you and be ok with being you, cuz that's all you can be.
If you choose to take charge of your life and to be a man, it will get better.
If you do nothing then nothing will happen.
Good luck m8

The only possible place is outlined in red.

However, if this is only a PCI slot and not a PCIX slot the you might as well get a new computer.

The wire you are asking about is not needed for your motherboard.

I've come to terms that I am addicted to taking stimulants such as adderall and I don't know how to break the cycle. The biggest issue is that I'm a student and now that I'm dependent on these pills, when I'm not on them I have literally no drive to get anything done. It's gotten so bad that I don't even find the idea of playing video games fun anymore when I'm sober. When I don't have any pills I usually just spend my day sleeping and experience many depression like symptoms, which I'm aware are just part of the withdrawal from stimulants. I don't know what I hope to accomplish from this post, maybe I'm just venting, pretty much as soon as I have a full month where I do not have to do any work that requires hours of focus I will stop taking these pills and allow myself to get through the withdrawal without fucking up my grades or life. I guess what I'm asking is: am I a piece of shit for still taking these pills while knowing that I am addicted?

replace it with another addition. Best one is running if you have the time and commitment. Running all the time. multiple times a day. When I was in college I ran 10 miles a day to break all of my bad habits. Not that I intentionally did it. Just would run 2 miles in the morning, 3 mile job mid day, and at night I would run until I felt I ran off whatever I need to which was usually like 5 miles.
Broke my shitty diet habits as well.

Would doing this help with the depression-like withdrawal symptoms. That's a big issue with quitting and when I have this withdrawal I have no desire to do anything including my school work.

Former meth addict here. It took me literally 5 years to stop. Do whatever it takes. Don't swallow everything AA teaches you whole, and don't get shamed if you don't believe their (shitty) beliefs. Look into SMART recovery, but don't swallow everything they say whole.

Read the wikipedia on addiction so you can get an idea of what's happening in your body. Understanding why your mind wants the drug helps put things in perspective.

People who call you stupid or weak haven't been truly addicted. People who shame you for it, or tell you you're inherently a bad person, are just assholes.

Things will go back to normal. It doesn't sound like you used huge doses or have been using for a long time, so the damage to your brain is probably minimal.

Kind of an odd question; why do girls nowadays relish the fact of being a shitty person? Can someone explain this phenomenon to me?

Its probably just a Western world thing, or even a metropolitan thing. What's up with every young female basking in negative traits? It's as though they love calling themselves:
>Bitch
>Mean
>Basic
>Thot/ Ratchet

God forbid if you called them stupid, though. You can hint with every other word in the dictionary but the ones that specifically mean dumb.

Is this just low IQ people taking pride in their ignorance or a new way to try and weed out impatient guys? I'm assuming the latter. Can only go about 2 weeks before I burst and say something like, "you can't be this simple".

It's because if they take these negative names and make them their own, then guys like you can't use them to insult them. It's really quite simple.
>>
This happens all the time. There's a social norm that some people resent and/or cannot live up to. They feel like a loser, or suffocated by the expectation that doesn't suit them, and after wrestling with it for a bit they decide to steer into the skid and embrace them not fitting in rather than continuing to feel bad about not fitting in.

Most girls who will call themselves, say, a bitch, won't think of it the way you do (nasty, unpleasant girl). They'll see it as a label they get for not being cutesy, patient and sweet enough for a girl. They probably think of themselves as (for example) sarcastic, cynical, straightforward, but a good person at heart. Just a person who will be seen as a bitch by people who expect girls to be all smiles and awws.
Or, slightly more radical, they mostly pride themselves in other qualities (like courage/spirit, their strong will and sharp mind) and feel like they might not be the friendliest girl around, but they're more interesting or more real or whatever than the friendliest girl around.

Hope this gives you an idea.

So im in love with this girl, like really in love. Stomach pain, cant sleep and have a hard time eating and stuff.
The worst part is that she does not love me back and there's no chance that we will be a couple.

Anyway. She wants to sleep with me and are open to that being it or if it turns out alright, open to some kind of fuck budy relation.

I really wanna fuck her. I really wish I could get rid of my feelings for her and just have fun. I dont know if I can.

Anyone had any experience with this kind of situation? Any advice?

Having sex with you isn't going to make her fall in love with you, and having sex with her isn't going to make your feelings go away.
>>
>>17726143
I know she wont fall in love with me. But im just worried that sleeping with her will mess me up even more.
>>
>>17726143
This.
Additionally, it will probably amplify your feelings towards her and cause you to do something extremely BETA and completely ruin any chance you might have with her.

I mean like "don't ever talk to me again" type of thing.
