What do I need to Convince a cute girl to go on a weekend backpacking trip?
post her picture

You should know that this sounds a bit like a serial killer.
Know her for many years in advance on a personal level.
I really want to fight someone right now. Like anybody. Just want to beat some ass. How can I find someone willing to fight right now? It's almost midnight and I want to release this urge. Don't want to start random trouble but will if necessary to beat someone's ass
>>17634907
Craigslist? Where do you live? I could use a beating.
>>17634913
I live in the south. Craigslist would be weird for trying to fight, I would rather see the person beforehand
>>17634922
Damn. You could exchange pics online before meeting.
I really don't like my boyfriends best friend
He's just been really mean to me since day 1 for no reason. I've always tried to be nice to him despite him saying rude shit. My bf says he doesn't mean anything by what he's said but I don't care he clearly has a personality disorder or is just rude
I'm really starting to hate him bc whenever my bf and I are hanging out he's calling him or asking him to ditch me to hangout etc. he messages me on Instagram once and asked if I knew where he was bc he wasn't answering his texts. It's just weird and annoying.
I'm especially like annoyed bc my bf has fsmily that lives in another country and is going to go there for the first time this summer and I'd die to go and his family was asking me if I wanted to but he said he already made plans w his friend to go a while ago and it just makes me feel sooooo bad bc I'm the girlfriend.. Not his best friend
What should I do :( am I overreacting . Ughh
>>17634866
if you don't like the best friend then leave, you can't control your bf or his friend but you can control you
>>17634885
Yeah I know that but I'm dating him not his best friend that's a bad reason to leave someone..
>>17634887
if that's the case then it's a bad reason to be complaining isn't it?
PS: I don't agree that it's a bad reason btw
>got a B.S. in Engineering Tech degree
>no internship while I was a student
>no engineering experience
>good gpa at least
>got my degree a little under two years ago
>applied to some jobs, but no interviews to show for it, much less a job
I've made some bad decisions here (not getting an internship for starters) which has led me to my current situation where I can't seem to get an entry-level engineering job
I need your advise /adv/
Am I completely fucked? (I'm probably fucked, but I gotta ask.)
What are my options and what's the best one? I don't want to keep on making bad decisions here.
>pic related it's me feeling like shit because I've likely fucked this whole thing up
>>17634851
I don't know shit about this but no one is giving you advice so I feel bad. If I had a degree in a field but could not find a job in it, maybe get a job at a workplace that has a position that would require your degree, but get like the lackey job, like a janitor at the place? idfk. If you show you're a good worker maybe bring up to your boss that you do have a degree and would like a shot at the engineering job. Idk, sorry if I can't help much.
Instead of applying to advetised jobs, have you tried directly approaching companies?
>>17635161
Maybe not janitor but, you get the idea. A lesser position where you could still work to the position you studied for.
As a child and a teen, i used to get lost in a book. I was hooked from the first word on and would be totally immersed in the story.
I want that again. How is this even called? How do i do it again? It was pure bliss...
>>17634843
There's no name for it, though I think Stephen King once called it the "I Gotta" effect. As in: I've been thinking about having sex all day, my wife just went up to bed, she'll be asleep by the time I finish this chapter, but I Gotta find out what happens next.
You just need to find a good book, dude. What kinds of books do you like? What did you like as a teen?
If you want to be immersed and hooked on a story, try a popular fantasy series like Name of the Wind. Lord of the Rings too if you've never read that.
>>17634850
Yes, exactly. I was in another world when reading.
I've read anything i got my hands on. But my most intense reads must have been thrillers. I stopped reading them though and changed to drama and fantasy. The last thing that REALLY got me hooked have been the asoiaf books. I've read one of the books in one night. In the bathtube... Couldn't even stop to get out of the water.
Other than that, i really like authors like irving. I noticed that i like books that seem like they could really happen. As in, the protagonists aren't "perfect". They are humans who could actually exist. With flaws and all. The only book i have ever read twice was the pigeon by süskind. I'd like to find more books with good character developemen.
I've been a NEET for more that one year. My mum seemed to be slightly OK since I don't drink/smoke/take drugs/have friends/leave the house, but a couple days ago we had a talk and she's no longer OK.
I haven't finished High School (the equivalent in my country) and the exams are once every fucking year. I'm planning to take a "Certificate in one test" course and enter University the next year. The problem is I still don't know which career should I take.
Yeah. I still don't know what I want to do with my life.
Almost two years ago I went to a local art school. I also have been participating on /ic/ for more than two years, but I don't feel actually good. I finished the course in July and had to hand two final assignments since then. So, technically I haven't finished.
I'm stupid. I have the stupid dream of creating a videogame and selling art commissions. I have taken courses on Codecademy. I wanted to study music, writing, programmingand things I considered "necessary" to make a videogame on my own.
But it is the time when I feel that all of it is pointless. I feel left behind; I'm a loser because the situation I'm in is all my fault. Almost everyone I know is on the way to become a wagecuck with more reasons to be proud than me. Well, you can only imagine how it felt to discover than a classmate went to the same art school I was attending, painted better than me and was also studying medicine.
As of now, I dropped everything but art, writing and programming. Those have been easy for me since I was younger.
So, I'd like to hear some career choices that may help me fulfill my dream, since is the only thing I really want to do.
I want to fix my life before I turn 30 or more and cannot find a job because I don't have a stupid paper telling me I finished High School.
If you can recommend some lectures for unorganized NEETs with zero communication skills, I'll be reading them.
Thanks for reading my blog. Sorry for my shit english.
>>17634827
Shameless self BUMP.
>>17635742
Where the fuck do you live?
>>17635752
Mexico.
>Inb4 le spic.
I'm being serious.
Guys.
I feel so fucked up.
To make a long story short I broke up with my girlfriend of two years and she recently tried to make me think she killed herself, because of that I told her to not talk to me for at least a while.
She blocked me on all forms of communication, but I've heard around that's she's already got someone else in her life.
This fucks me up bad. We always talked about waiting a long time before getting back into dating, and I meant it. It just feels like another kick in the stomach after her whole threat of suicide shit.
What do I do?
Pic unrelated, just wanted something to put up along with this.
>>17634771
Let her kill herself.
Haha no that's not funny.
>>17634785
If anything ever actually happened I'd honestly never know. I don't know if that's better or worse.
>>17634771
Chances are she remembers you saying so and is particularly getting with new so fast as revenge. Let her be petty. It's over just worry about you.
Can you use Tinder to just make friends? Or will nobody take you seriously? I'm a 20 year old male in college and have trouble approaching people irl.
If not, are there are any other apps/websites I can use to meet people online in my area?
>>17634725
Look into MeetUp.
Select your hobbies / things you are interested in.
Search for a group.
Go to an event.
>>17634735
I'm not trying to meet groups or anything, I want to just talk with and meet individual people.
>>17634789
Not him but, you can do that in a group. A lot faster
Serious question: are there any girls who like thick muscular Big Guys? Or do quiet nerdy types assume we're all douches?
>>17634671
>are there any girls who like thick muscular Big Guys?
yes
>do quiet nerdy types assume we're all douches?
yes
>>17634671
didn't you ask this yesterday? what's the point of asking something if you're not going to accept the answer you get
>>17634671
I'm in my 30s, I'm a power lifter, I play prop on a rugby team, and I have a ring on my finger. I get plenty of attention from women, especially younger ones. Lots of girls go for the massive alpha male, even over the lean chad if they're starting to get to the point in their life that biology is dictating who they want to fuck.
At the same time, a lot of people assume I'm an asshole. I could give a shit what a guy in skinny jeans who rode a fixie to the bar thinks of me, though. In a business environment, I'm just a big guy.
Look, someone is always going to judge you for something. Thats just the way things are. Do you really want to spend your whole life reacting to the judgements of people who's opinion means nothing? Danny DeVito got married. Gary Busey still gets work. Rosy McDonald became famous. Dick Cheney looks like an angry tumor. Who cares?
Sorry For re-post
Why are women so emotional especially when they are on their period?
>Today
>GirlFriend on her period
>This has never stopped us from having sex before
>She comes over today
>Fed Ex delivers a package to me(Its her birthday present)
>She gets all excited, keeps asking what it is
>I say she has to wait
>She says if she doesn't tell me she wont have sex with me
>I say you cant withhold sex becasuse you dont get your way, Thats what bad girlfriends do
>At this point i knew i fucked up
>She is distant with me the whole night.
>Watching shit on her laptop, Giving me one word answers, Ignoring my i love yous
>She later says to me all i care about is sex and i dont want to spend time with her
>30 mins later she started to really make out with me like we normally do before sex
>She then says she wants my dick
> I give it to her
>It was awkward sex, it just didn't feel right. Not nearly as emotional as usual
>She just left, The goodbye was even more awkward then the sex
WHAT THE FUCK. Why is she being like this? Did i say anything that bad?
Did you tell her that it's a birthday surprise?
Other than that, you handled it good. I think it's very good you called her out on withholding sex on purpose. On the other hand, it was very bad from her to have sex with you because of passive agressive shit. She basically brought this on to herself.
As a girl with strong pmsing. I sadly can fully understand why she got so upset and acted in such immature ways. The hormones seriously fuck you over. I try to not interact with people when pmsing because i tend to mess up so badly it's not even funny anymore. And i'm a rather rational and mature person normally. I warn my bf in advance...
It's seriosuly messed up. In that moment you KNO myou have a bad case of overreacting and not being reasonable but you are merely a bystander to your cringy behaviour. I'm working on my pms-selfcontrole full force but damn it's hard.
Cut her some slack but talk it out so this episode won't leave any hard feelings.
>At this point i knew i fucked up
Naw it was at that point you did right.
Your girlfriend actively tried to use sex as a bargaining chip, that's a huge "fuck you" to you.
Especially followed later by the "all you care about is sex"
That's some irrational bullshit
>>17634665
hormones, did you do biology?
Long story short I was friends with my crush on Facebook for a while,
>we use to work with each other but he left
>I asked him if he wanted to hang out one time, never replied so i'm guessing he didn't want to but didn't know how to say no
>month later we're still friends on fb but I don't like his posts for a while bc I don't want to come off as desperate but that ship has probably sailed
>recently I tagged him in something he would like
>instantly regret this
>feel shitty about myself
>I feel like that Greek mythological figure, Tantalus: he's basically punished by standing in a pond that recedes when he tries to take a drink
>To me I know I don't have a chance with this guy and I know it's unhealthy of me to keep thinking about him
So I unfriended him...I was planning on doing this for a while but I wanted to say something before I did..I was too angry with myself and ashamed of myself to send him a message. I wanted to confess that he was my first crush..
Not sure if he noticed that I unfriended him but I regret it. Because it's my own damn fault that I fell for him and it's my own fucking fault for putting him in this awkward position.
I can still message him, should I say something before its too late? I feel like shit and I don't want him to feel like I hated him...I know he'll get a girlfriend eventually and I know that would just put me through shit...
I kind of want to get off my chest that he was my first crush but at this point I don't think it matters..But would it be weird? I just don't want this to go unsaid.
Has anyone else been in this situation ever?
okay forget the whole admitting my crush thing, i'll just stay friends...
I sent another friend request so i'll see how this goes...
hi OP, you sound very young.
i don't have advice for you, but i wanted to wish you luck anyway. i think you messed up by removing them as a friend, and then proceeding to add them again.
if anything, they may think you're crazy.
good luck friend, and remember, i love u
Okay, so I'm taking a fifth year in high school and I'm also retaking a few courses. Basically, if you retake courses universities kinda look at those retaken marks more critically because you have an advantage over people who took it only once. They give exception to this if you provide good reason in the AIF why they should treat your retaken course marks as regular. What are some good reasons I could list?
Why are you retaking classes?
>>17634638
Because I got poor marks the first time around
couldn't grasp the material properly the first time. personal internal and external stress factors
I'm 22 years old, being driven to insanity due to confusion
here's my status
>want to be rich
>not interested in accumulating large amounts of money
>want to end it all
>i have a gf to live for
>I'm driven by my goals
>I don't know what my goals are
>I work hard to achieve my dreams
>yet I have no idea what I want to achieve
>I've started diving into business opportunities
>but I don't know what business I want to get in to
>I look at the positives in the shittiest situation
>yet I see the negatives in a good one
halp?
>>17634608
>driven
think you're using the wrong tense there
>>17634608
Eat a Persim Berry
>>17634608
>I'm driven by my goals
>I don't know what my goals are
There's your problem, buddy. Humans are driven by a desire. This desire will differ from person to person and can manifest itself differently in the same person, but there is a desire. Find out yours before continuing
Someone I know was telling me how they were bothered by a comment from someone about how "I wouldn't date them if they were the last person on Earth." They said it was because they're black, and when I told them they can't just outright say that and there could be plenty of reasons why, they said they know what microagressions look like and they're a shitty person. I don't think this is the case knowing the person, being a mixed person and getting shit tossed at me for this, that, and the other thing. What are your opinions?
>>17634600
I don't think we have enough to work with here but let me just say that the way you experience the world/other people may not be the way that your black friend experiences it so don't write off their concerns
>>17634600
I think that's just what he needs to tell himself, because that's a pretty harsh thing she said about him, and it's easier for him to think "she's racist" than "I am the most undesirable man she's ever met."
It's a bit immature of him, but I'd just let him have it, unless he starts to go around telling everyone that this girl is a racist. But even if he does that, most people will recognize his butthurt for exactly what it is
>>17634600
No different than saying they wouldn't date someone short. They're simply attracted to certain types of humans. Even if the thing they're attracted to is something that a person cannot change.
Being fat or ugly are things people can change with enough effort and money. Race and height are not. But either way, it doesn't really matter. You are attracted to who you're attracted to. People can't change that. And it's not their fault.
What's the worst that could happen if I lied on a resume and someone found out?
I'm a recently graduated tradesman with no job experience, but I have been keeping myself busy with complex personal projects. I want to put these projects on my resume as experience.
So instead of saying I kept myself busy by improving my parent's house, I'll put down that I did this work professionally for some small unknown company or client and got paid for it.
Would anyone find out if I did this?
>>17634598
>What's the worst that could happen if I lied on a resume and someone found out?
Uh, you'd be fired and would have trouble finding work in the industry again? This is especially risky with a trade, as tradespeople generally know each other so word will travel fast.
well obviously you have experience in home renovations
put that on ur resume
>>17634632
this. no need to pump it up into some big contract or whatever.
either say you have experience in home renovations for a family member, or at least say it was a family friend that paid you to do it for them.
