Serious question here.

What percent of women out there do you think know about the alpha/beta dynamic? I am not talking about whether women prefer alphas over betas (that much is obvious).

I mean, if you just went up to a girl and said you're alpha, would any of them even have a clue what you are talking about? And no, I am not suggesting that is a good pick up line.

Assuming that by alpha/beta dynamic you mean that they are two discrete categories and not a spectrum as most guys here tend to understand the concept, this is a stupid question.

I fucked up and entered all my information into a spam form. What do I do to stop the person who got it from doing anything bad with it?

By information I mean litterally everything important down to mother's maiden name.

Yes, I know this was stupid. How do I fix it?

You can't take it back. What you need to do is change your passwords and security questions for everything you can think of, from your bank accounts to your old Neopets account.

One, why would you enter all that stuff?

Two, change your passwords. All of them and starting with your email.

realistically how bad is this? i know they can buy a lot of things with your info but they can't make you pay for it or stuff right? like it's a pain in the ass but not the end of the world?

My gf is boring.

The most "fun" thing to do is "le clubbing xD" and that's pretty much it. She has no hobbies, nothing to really enjoy. She said herself that she doesn't really like anything besides her job which is some boring computer programming transjigamarig mumbo jumbo.

I once joked that she's got no personality and she laughed, but inside I was crying. She's not passionate about anything other than basic shit like going to coffee with her gurls and talking for hours on end.

I find myself lonelier and lonelier and I would very much like to be like all the other happy and passionate couples I see.
Thing is, there has never been a spark even from the start. She's just not passionate beyond shallow, everyday mundane shit.

What can I do? I don't wanna leave her because she's so cute, like a kitty.

Well, it's perfectly normal for someone your age to want to masturbate, and do it often. I'm guessing you're a male, between the ages of 18-28. Plus, it's a good way to relieve stress and keeps your prostate healthy.

However, just because you can and should doesn't make it right. Remember: pic related.

I'm halfway through a restaurant management course, and I've realized it's not really what I want to do. what I want to do is hairstyling. The thing is it's pretty shitty pay. After the course I'd actually be starting at $3/hr less than what I was getting at my job BEFORE the course I'm in now.
If I finish the management course, then went into hairstyling I'd be paying off 3 years of student loans on basically minimum wage.
If I quit now I'd save myself the extra year of loans, but wouldn't have much to fall back on if I can't make it as a stylist.
I've always wanted to do hair , but the low pay is why I didn't seriously consider it.
Should I do the smart thing ? Or do what I love and be poor for the next 15 years.

What is that?

Why do you "love" "doing hair"? Is it really rational?
>>
>>17537767

Finish what you start. You can start hairstyling when your debts are paid off, and you won't have to feel that pay decrease if you budget accordingly and focus on paying off your debt while working as a restaurant manager.

>[I] wouldn't have much to fall back on if I can't make it as a stylist

Considering you just took on a great deal of debt, it doesn't sound like a wise decision.

Okay so I fucked up and I need your advice. I broke up with my gf a week ago, cut communications for the next few days, then met up with her yesterday, mainly to give her back the stuff that she left at my place. We had a few drinks, she tried to convince me to give the relationship another go, I told her repeatedly that however much I wanted this to work out, it didn't and it won't, then she asked me if I could sleep at her place... One thing led to another and we had sex eventually. This morning, just as I got out of bed to leave for work, she asked me what'll happen next. I know that I should've answered something like "this was a one time thing, I'm sorry but I won't go back on my words", but I couldn't muster out a reply of any sorts, just hugged her and left.
So I ask you, /adv/: what do?

You fucked up your break-up. Do you actually want to break up? What you need to do is have another conversation with her. You fucked her again, so you can't just continue with the "cut-all-ties" schtick.
>>
>>17537737
Yeah, I do want to break up with her: she was suffocating me, got jealous when I would spend my time with friends or at home with my family instead of being with her (even though we spent at least 4 nights a week together), didn't want to understand the concept of "the need for personal space", hated the fact that I would enjoy browsing 4chan in my spare time, cost me a lot of money (for example, we always had to eat out because she can't cook, and we went on vacations abroad four times in a year, even though I'm still paying off my student loan), and was all in all a really controlling, uncompromising partner.
I know that another talk is imminent, but I just can't think of a way to explain both my decision about the break-up and what happened last night.
>>
>>17537729
Oh my fucking God.
You can find someone steaming hot without wanting to have a relatio ship with them, right ?
Be clear and honest with her : you still find her hot enough to have somd fun with her, but you aren't compatible on any other levels. Period.

It's up to her if she wants to go on this way, but I do recognize myself in the girl you described (sadly) and went with a fwb kind of relationship with my ex. You'll have both your physical needs cover, and it honestly is a ton of fun !

I fell for the psychedelic propaganda

"They're harmless, so much safer than beer or cigarettes. It's mind expanding and it will show you thinks you never imagined. It's unlike anything, it's a necessary part of the human experience, it's a crime that it's illegal and everyone should try it"

Well it's not for me, everyone takes a risk. You don't know how it will end up for you. I still feel weird, I developed moderate anxiety after taking it a few times, and it has worsened after smoking more weed lately. I'm stopping all drugs completely except alcohol (alcohol is worse on the body but safer on the mind)

Guys and girls if you're one of those lonely kids who think psychedelics are something to look forward to in life, some rewarding experience that will change who you are and make you a happier person - it's time for some tough love - no they fucking aren't. Psychedelics can help you but only if your life is already in order. You take from what experience what you want, but they can open doors you wish you left shut

Just fucking trust me, it is literally impossible to explain. I just don't feel the same ever since my first time. I wish I never tried it, I wish I could rewind the clock. I'm hoping a year or so of sobriety from all psychedelics will get me back into reality

I want to throw up this red pill of psychedelic insights and take the blue pill again because psychedelics are innately pseudo-intellectual, one of the negative effects is "HEIGHTENED CERTAINTY". Look at all the hippy stoner fucking burnout losers who are 100% sure their retarded insights are real. It's not enlightening it's misleading. The answers psychedelics give you are DELUSIONS.

We can understand the nature of reality and our own minds through SCIENCE and PSYCHOLOGY. This first hand rock-thrown-into-the-cogs approach is fucking bullshit and it won't give you any legitimate insights.

These are REAL negative effects, this isn't anti-drug propaganda

http://www.drugfreeworld.org/drugfacts/lsd/the-harmful-effects-of-lsd.html

-Delusions
-Visual hallucinations
-An artificial sense of euphoria or certainty
-Distortion of one’s sense of time and identity
-Impaired depth perception
-Impaired time perception, distorted perception of the size and shape of objects, movements, color, sounds, touch and the user’s own body image
-Severe, terrifying thoughts and feelings
-Fear of losing control
-Panic attacks
-Flashbacks, or a recurrence of the LSD trip, often without warning long after taking LSD
-Severe depression or psychosis

Please, only do these if you are a happy social person with a fine life already who just wants to augment it. Yeah the great experiences are beautiful, enhanced empathy and feelings of love and connectedness, BEAUTIFULLY enhanced perception of music and art. But the negatives are so bad it's legitimately not worth it

Psychedelics increase the amplitude of the wave that is your life. Higher highs, lower lows - but guess what, it deepens your lows more than it increases your highs

Stay stable, stay drug free, I'm dead serious. Yeah maybe I'm just pathetic and can't handle bad trips, but there are millions of people out there who this advice applies to. I want to go cry, the bad trips I've had are so fucking bad and they're stuck with me. I wouldn't wish them on my worse enemy

"Flashbacks" are FUCKING REAL okay it's just that the term is bad. They are just manifestations of increased anxiety upon experiencing something that reminds you of a bad trip

Ever have a bad trip and go hide under your bed to avoid the evil spirits? You MAY have a flashback and experience a sense of dread any time you look under your bed now. It will go away eventually but it's still unpleasant. And this can apply to normal everyday objects

What's horrible is when it applies to things you used to love.
>>
>>17537736
tl;dr

Don't do drugs kids especially psychedelics, and especially in large doses and without proper preparation

The highs are high, but the lows have the potential to be literally lower than you could possibly imagine. Nightmares you could never have conceived of before they happen to you.

Your mind expands, but guess what - sometimes you don't want it to expand into those dark corners. Sometimes you WANT to be able to ignore reality and just life your life. Some realities are unpleasant. Leave them untouched, leave those cobwebs where they are. Psychedelics will reveal them all and you will never be able to forget them again

This gets worse if you're an intelligent person with a good understanding of philosophy and world affairs. The more you know the worse LSD has the potential to be. Jimbo McBobbington the retard's mind can't go in too many directions too far since it's already pretty small. But if you're an intellectual, or consider yourself one in any way, and you are prone to depression or anxiety - STAY THE FUCK AWAY

YOU WILL WISH YOU FOLLOWED MY ADVICE ONCE YOU EXPERIENCE THIS.

I got drunk and got dicked by a guy I didn't particularly like nor want to get fucked by. It didn't hurt and I barely remember it, I don't give a shit, but my ex heard about it and he's fucking livid, insisting I should tell the police and pull rape charges.

I don't recall protesting to being fucked, even thought I thought we'd just agreed he'd let me crash on his couch before he started goading me towards the bed.

I told my ex that it doesn't matter to me, and it wasn't that different from all the times I've let him fuck me blackout drunk, and while I'm not glad it happened, it genuinely does not matter to me. I'm not putting someone in jail just because I can't speak after half a bottle of whiskey.

How do I keep my ex from tracking down and murdering an innocent guy?

Hey everyone,

I've been seeing this girl on and off for a long time.

Recently we have been on for almost a year. She has a drinking problem, and when she would get shit faced she would text other dudes. I caught her, and then we decided to we needed sometime to think about our choices. If we're making the right choice having a relationship. We decided to stay exclusive while we take time to think about it.

I texted her today and she says since she has not been with me she is a lot less stressed out. Shes avoiding having conversations with me. She says she loves me, and I'm the only person she cares about. However she seems like shes doesn't want to continue on making this work. She keeps telling me "It shouldn't be this hard".

Just looking for some advice, on what I should do. I want to make it work. Is there anything I can do? What should I do?

Dude fucking cut ties with her. If she thinks things are "too hard" than she needs a re-evaluation of how life works and a re-evaluation of if alcohol is even worth it. This bitch is delusional you need to see a different girl
>>
>>17537626

Bump. Anyone else got advise?
>>
>>17537626

Try to have a real conversation about why it is hard and why she feels stressed around you. We can't answer that for you. Remember that you have to commit yourself to an HONEST conversation.

Im going to a party later this week where everyone's going be wasted on Ecstasy. I want to take it too, but this would be my first time. I know pretty much all the people that are going to be there, so i dont want to embarass myself.. Any advise on how I can not freak out, get laid, and just in general have a good time? Im not a *complete* social idiot but I've got zero experience w/ mdma or people on it.. Thanks

Just don't even go to the party. If someone needs drugs to have a good time then it's nor really a party is it? Just a bunch of bums being delusional
>>
>>17537676
Ehhh, the principle is not entirely solid, but the advice for this party is. If you don't have a plan or don't think it's safe, and if you're not very interested in taking mdma, don't go.

You don't indeed need any substances to have a good time, but it doesn't mean you can't have a reasonable amount of fun with them. That being said, you don't need a full blown out hard schedule 1 drug to feel good.

Yes, you don't need any substance to have a good time but good company, but there's nothing wrong with a shared drug experience. Adults partake in moderation friend. Its not that I'm afraid at all, or that anyone is pressuring me. I just wanted the advise of people that have done it before.. What should I expect to see??I've wanted to take MDMA for a while now so I just want to maximize this experience!

I am a penniless NEET mustering up the willpower to finish college. For some inexplicable reason I am like catnip for young female professionals with a high degree of education who come from affluent backgrounds. I have even had an outright marriage proposal involving becoming heir to a girl's father's business. This has held true with both American and foreign women.

I am unable to wrap my head around this. You might say "good problems anon hurr hurr", but not really. To me it feels more like women see me as a man that they can mold into some ideal that they have, or they see me as a way of rebelling,and it doesn't feel good to be used that way.

Can anyone offer advice on how to deal or cope with this?

I've been in the same position. Basically, you are probably a very stable and reasonable guy, the kind that is not going to randomly blow a million dollars on hookers and blow, get arrested, and fuck up his life.
This makes you a safe bet for rich girls, since their daddies will approve of you.
They're not really looking for a soul mate, more of a partner. The business kind. And they think you fit the bill pretty well.

I moved from a Scandinavian country to Australia some months back. Back home, I lived in the capital. I never had any issues finding men to date and every time I went out, I talked with several new guys. This despite the fact that Scandinavian men in general are of high quality.

Here in Australia however no man has even talked to me yet. I wonder why is that so that no man finds me appealing here, even though I'm able to date handsome men back home.

How tall are you? If you're taller than the average guy - or if you look taller than them when wearing heels and wear them a lot - maybe you're intimidating them. Other than that it might just be that there are different norms you haven't picked up on yet that might make the process to finding a boyfriend somewhat different from what you're used to (maybe you're coming on too strong, not strong enough, maybe you're trying to meet men in the wrong places, or meeting them too passively - you no longer have a circle of friends to reliably meet people through).

Anxiety meds.

Realize that won't happen. Convince yourself logically that it's unlikely.

If you can't control your emotions at all, go talk to a therapist.
Pills help but they're a temporary solution, you'll need a long-term fix.

Why do you respond to these illogical feelings?
You can't just assume this stuff without a basis therefore your fears are irrational and you have to recognize this
