So i've been talking to this girl for about six months we first met at an event at the start of the year, we hit off really well and have been talking ever since, but the thing is she lives on the other side of the country and its really awkward, and im not sure if she still like me or not, at the time she had a boyfriend but we still made out and a few months later right after prom she broke up with him and after that we've been snapchatting even more we've also facetimed and shit, i havent been able to meet up in person cus of final year of school and my 2 month holiday in america, and right now she tells me she went on a date with some guy for the last 3 weeks they've been together and im here acting like it doesn't hurt and still acting the same way but it does hurt and i dont know what to do, we were planning on her coming over this week but i just dont know
Forget her. Considering the fact she was with you while she had a boyfriend shows she's a cheating whore. Just get rid of her. Just going to cause more problems the longer you wait
But the thing is she was planning on breaking up with him anyway but couldnt cus she had prom with him
What a cheating whore

(M) Is a stuffed animal a bad choice of the birthday present for a girl friend I am not interested in ? She always complains me about her lost stuffed animal, so I thought it will be good birthday present to buy a replace for it. Btw. she is interested in me a lot.

Old female friend ghosts me from time to time and gets mad when I call her out on it.
How do I stop being a beta male?
>>17679962
>she is interested in me a lot.
Don't do it, it's going to send the wrong message
>>17679971
Have you tried accepting that she does that and not letting it bother you?

I asked a girl out on a date and she said, "yes, I'll think about it".
I saw her again today and she smiled at me, but we didn't have a chance to talk.
Did she just try to put me down easy? Should I ask her if she thought about it? Or should I let her bring it up, next time we talk?
Thanks

How would I go about teaching myself to play bass?
I guess first I need to learn to read tabs, and then I should just practice every day. But does anyone have any useful tips/websites/advice/videos/whatever?
It would be ideal to have a teacher, as they can show you what you are doing wrong, but I understand if you can't/don't want to. Tabs are fairly easy to learn, and there is plenty of material online, specifically youtube. Also MAKE SURE YOU LEARN MUSIC THEORY. It is important to learn it while you are just starting out, because it is very hard to correct bad habits later.
For tips, since you are going to be a bass player, you need to have a good sense rhythm and timing. Pay attention to the bass drum in songs and when it hits. Typically you want to play a note every time it does, and "sync up with it" but this is not required for all songs. Also you should get a metronome if you don't already have one.
Lastly, for technique, it might take a while for you to get comfortable playing. Start out playing slow, and then you will start to build up speed over time. Like I said there are plenty of resources out there: video tutorials, guides, and if you are into vidya Rocksmith is a good game for beginners. It is basically like guitar hero but with a real guitar/bass and has a bunch of helpful tools as well.
>>17679955
Thank you!
Learn to play normal guitar first, practice chords and finger agilitty.
Anyone with medical knowledge out there? I have a growing mole on my scalp, it is brown and pink, it doesn't itch or bleed. Is it fungus? I did have fungus problems in the past which I treated with medicine applied to the area and special shampoo, but that was 3 years ago. I always had a lot of sebum secretion in my life...
Should I see a specialist? What over the counter treatment can I get ?
go to a doctor
>>17679899
looks like surface level sub-tumor
Could be a small cyst, go to a dermatologist.
I really like this girl, but she can't be with me.How do I stop having these huge emotions for her, but still maintain a friendship?
I feel you anon, want to know that too
Ideally by not seeing her for a while and distracting yourself from her with other people. If after that you see her again and you still have feelings, you can't be friends. If you don't, then problem solved.
You can't just skip the whole "getting over people" part of feelings
>>17679887
for how long should i stop seing her
not op
and of course no fantasies with her right?
I just lost a job more or less because I'm socially awkward. This is actually the second time this has happened. For all you normal people, I'll explain:
>be awkward
>say/do something stupid because of awkwardness
>get judged
>become self conscious, and more awkward
>people think I'm retarded
>start talking to each other/the boss
>get treated like shit
>hours get cut to an insulting degree
>stop showing up
How can I stop being socially awkward long enough to keep a job. I'm starting to worry I'm going to work my current job until it eventually drives me to an hero. What do I do?
>>17679877
try not being a little bitch first and foremost, but we dont know what awkward things you say or do. they are the problem.
>>17679892
How am I a little bitch? I can't control the things people say or do i.e. talking shit about me behind my back.
>>17679915
>being this dumb
I use to be a social retard like you and thought that I couldn't control anything. Then I realized the only consistent thing in the equation was me so obviously I was doing something wrong and needed to improve but you don't sound like that. You sound like a scared child looking for a hole to crawl in and hide.
No one can help you with your vague as fuck description of the problem and I can tell you right now nothing will fix it unless you are willing to at least slightly fundamentally change yourself.
>at work
> have no friends in real life or at work
> just work by myself
>see coworkers getting lunch together, walking together, talking to each other, messaging each other on our office messaging system, etc
> overhear coworkers talking about getting drinks after work
> the likeable and better looking coworkers are given better performance evaluations (paid much better, promoted above me)
> most of the people I work with are actually terrible at their jobs
How do I deal with this? It seems so unfair
>>17679830
start convos with them , maybe you could make some friends
>>17679830
Talk to people. Be sociable. You have to initiate it
>>17679837
>>17679859
I rarely see anyone I know
I have a cubicle, but I don't even know the people next to me. It would be weird if I just started talking to them. They don't talk to me...
What would cause your gf to go from "I love you and want to move in together next year" to "I fell out of love and need to be alone right now" in a matter of literally 2 weeks? We broke up and I'm trying to give her space but I want to text her every second of every day and it's killing me. I know she is depressed and has anxiety but I didn't think it would cause her to burn it all down...
>inb4 it's another guy
Self bump because I'm desperate
Did you ask her about it?
>>17679814
How long have you been together?
im getting a car soon and im having quite a dilemma what to choose.
should i take older but better car (2009 e class mercedes for example) or should i take newer but worse car (example: 2014 peugeot 508)?
should i buy cheaper car for cash only, or do i get better car in leasing?
im thinking opel insignia from 2012 with like 20% worth lease or insignia from 2015 with 40% lease.
i cant fucking decide. halp please.
>>17679776
depends, where are you in your life right now? how much are you making a month? how old are you? what kind of car is your favorite?
you can build up your credit a bit with financing and shit. if payments are not a problem i'd say go for the better vehicle so long as you can afford it.
regardless expect to take it into the shop for small things.
>>17679797
is op even here??
Hi everybody, I don't know if this is the best place to ask but I'm not doing that great at the moment. I'm struggling with some kind of weird food obsession/preoccupation that has developed from what I think is anorexia, though I was never diagnosed. I'm male, but I lost over 100lb on liquid diets and severe calorie restrictions for months - I went through a phase briefly of starting to look like a prisoner in a Japanese POW camp but I think I'm coming back from that now.
The problem is although I am eating more now I eat weird stuff - like nuts and fruit and tins of fish and stuff throughout the day. I've forgotten how to eat properly/normally. I've calorie counted for so long and been on diets for so long, with both of my parents who are still dieting, I don't know what actually makes up a "lunch" for a normal person.
>>17679764
Every time I try to figure out what people normally eat or try to think of a lunch, I think it's probably something like a 200-300 calorie sandwich or something, but then I see people eating pizza and like what would have been a full dinner for me (500 calories) at lunch time. Normally if I go and buy lunch in my college canteen I'll get a sandwich and some fruit with coffee but what am I supposed to eat after that if I only had a big bowl of oatmeal for breakfast?
If I try to imagine eating 500 calories for breakfast, lunch and dinner, that's me still at 1500 - which is still weight loss for a young adult male like me. There's a big movement now away from all the bullshit dieting stuff towards "eating when you're hungry" and "eating mindfully" and stuff like that, but I don't even know when I'm hungry - I don't feel it, I just get light headed and have to remind myself to eat.
What do you guys typically eat on a daily basis? Most people don't think about food 24/7, like I do, they just eat when they're hungry, but what the fuck do you actually eat that keeps you at a weight you feel comfortable with?
>>17679764
aren't you that guy who posted this back on /fit/ months ago?
>>17679766
I sometimes try to remember what I ate when I was a kid, but the problem was that my mother often overfed me with portions that were too big, and I ate calorific fatty food for breakfast and dinner because my dad did. Now all they eat are main meal salads and shit like that but if I'm cooking/preparing meals for myself, I have no idea how to even make those or how many servings they are - and because they're low calorie, I'd probably still lose weight if I ate them.
I may be charged with a felony.
I have not been charged yet.
There are no warrants out for me yet.
If I leave town, and am never served the warrant, am I good to go?
>>17679763
What felony?
>>17679767
The one that seems most applicable is "Discharge of a firearm", possibly Aggravated Assault, although I made it clear that if I were attempting to kill or injure the other party, they would have been shot. In a very pro-2a state.
>>17679772
I don't know, man.
>Girl very flirtatious, likes hanging around me.
>Cool I'll ask her on a date
>When that though hits my head, the next day she just avoids me like the plague for some reason
>We're literally sitting in class and she looks at me about 50 times
>Class ends, she quickly leaves and goes back to her dorm, whilst she looks at me one last time
>text her if everything's alright
>she says she has a lot of stuff to do
>I say I'll listen to her if she wants, because a lot of stuff isn't being communicated
>no response
Why? She's still staring at me for some reason so she doesn't hate me, I think. Do I just wait? Do I still greet her? We haven't said a word all day but we've basically been in one another's presence all day.
Idk why, I can only guess and my guess is as good as yours. Worrying about "why" is pointless here anyways.
Don't contact her, wait for her to contact you. Greet her like you would greet any other classmate.
>>17679729
Gotcha, I think she's been playing hard to get and I did something I probably didn't realize and she bounced off of it. I'm not very perceptive.

Where do I find a girlfriend with her own apartment who either lives off her family's money or is a self employed entrepreneur?
