Go talk to girls

Where abouts in the UK are you dubsman?

>>17465039
Somewhere in London. Used to be a shit estate but it's become flooded with hipsters, yuppies and students.

It's a little too soon. How long living together? How much do you fight over stupid, meaningless, material things?

Each couple is a world on its own. We don't know any of you. We can't give you that answer.

I got married at 21. Never regretted it.

But for today standards it's odd. People keep pushing marriage years later with each generation - and not only marriage, also moving away, getting a job, etc. 30 have become in many ways the new 20. It's a shame.

I read somewhere that it takes around 2 years to fully get to know someone.
So I'd say yeah go for it.

Some skills I want to learn:

>drawing
>sound design/music production/composing (idk what you'd call it.)
>computer programming
>being able to talk to people well and make them admire me
>more articulate writing skills
>cooking skills
>design sense/aesthetic quality
>taking better pics

I'm not that smart, so I may not be able to absorb skills like these immediately. What's the most effective way to do this?

ok i can help you with the first one

start here

Why? Once you die everything will be lost again. Do one thing and do it better than everybody else and you will be remembered.

Of course. Some random NEET is going to give some words that'll magically fix everything.

Go to a doctor, explain your situation/symptoms, get appropriate treatment.

It is the Universe you're feeling.
It will end, and it is all just an idea we're collectively creating.

Have fun becomming enlightened and don't

>>17464965
do you feel a sharp sensation in your chest? i get that too sometimes but its really rare. it ends when you get away from that environement.

>>17464945
You would be surprised what a man would turn down for a decent night's sleep

Why are you fucking at 3am?

>>17464970
We work in service, so sometimes we're up late.

Awfully broad question, what are your study habits

>>17464932
try to write up an assignment a week before it's due, email your teacher/professor with said assignment requesting feedback because you want to attain high mark, feedback given, follow feedback, submit final copy

>>17464932
first thing you need to do is talk to your professors and your advisor about this, not 4chan

You could change the genders of every quote in that and it'd still hold true (arguably, it'd be even more true). Hypocrisy is not limited to one gender, now stop trying to start shit here and take it to >>>/r9k/

>>17464933
This board is reversed-r9k, that's why I posted it here.

>>17464955
>delusional the post

Also its fairly obvious if you ask girls about this they will be more inclined to, ya know, defend the girl over the guy

Its much easier for someone to sympathize with their own gender, and as the post said above, you could easily reverse genders and get a similar resopnse

>>17464926
I've been sexually active for ten years or so and I haven't really had a problem with premature ejaculation since I was much younger. It's all mental; you just need to chill out and be present, focus on the rhythm and keeping it going and push everything else out of your mind. Worry will make it happen sooner. Easier said than done maybe, but after a certain point it's just like flipping a switch.

I honestly think overthinking it is the worst enemy.

Masterbaute a lot. But try not to jack off to porn, unless the porn resembles and looks like the girl you are dating. This allows for you to develop a prolongation in sexy-times and also reinforces your sexual image of your significant other.

Engage in a lot of foreplay. Stop periodically during sex to eat her out, finger her, make out, etc so that your penis can recharge.

Make new friends. Its not hard with the internet.

fuck internet friends. Go find a guy who parties a lot. Make him your friend. He will help you by going you to parties and events. There you will get drunk and start talking to people without a probloem. Then new friends etc you got the idea. Go !

What's your economic level right now?

Former touring muso, have recorded, etc.

If you can't play the guitar line while you read/hold a conversation/ etc, you don't know it well enough. Practice doing this. Then, when you can, you'll be able to start singing over the top.

>>17464911

Funny you mention this OP, Kurt Cobain couldn't play and sing earlier in his career too. Just practice it like crazy. Nirvana is easy so once you're done with it you can problably play more stuff, get some gals (although if can sing AND play nirvana at the same time you will problably get girls too)

Me? I don't really have the talent, but you can do it man.

>>17464911
It really depends on the song. When I look for songs that I can play and sing I look for songs that revolve heavily around a particular chord progression.

Songs that feature a lot of intricate guitar-work, or that aren't carried by a distinct linear progression that gives you room to sing your lines and has key marker points that you can reference with regards to parts of the lyric are almost impossible to sing and play at the same time.

When I hear a song that I want to learn how to sing and play, I don't look for tablature on the intricate guitar licks and things like that... I search for the song chords. Ie. "Bright Eyes Lua Chords"

If you get a lot of hits, it's generally an indication that the song translates well whenever you try to perform it with just a guitar/singing

If I looked for chords for Golden Earring - Twilight Zone, I might be able to find a few hits, but I highly doubt that when I play it it's gonna sound anything like the song does for the mere fact that its not based around a central guitar chord progression... it's more bass-heavy with guitar licks and riffs and a lot of tactful drumwork

Tinder is still decent. POF is good too but it really depends on your location and how far you're willing to travel. One app that has really gone downhill in recent years is OKCupid. While other apps have embraced a mobile and sleek interface, OKC is very clunky.

There is also Bumble which I have not used yet but perhaps others can chime in.

Also is that pic of Emma shopped or real?

>>17464918
Cool, thanks for the suggestions, I'll have to try those out. The city I'm in is mostly populated with uni students, or it will be come September, so I'm hoping that will keep these apps promising without having to travel too far out.

And I wish it was (it could be) real, but as far as I know its shopped.

>>17464956

Good, you'll be fine and you will have success if you keep at it. Take some relief knowing you're new to the city and you don't have to be embarrassed about it.

I didn't start online dating until after college. I've had several dates and they were ALWAYS hot chicks, and had sex with two.

Dress up as his mom.

>>17464851
This. Whether a guy wants to admit it or not, he always has a secret desire to fuck his mom

>>17464950
Freud is that you?

>>17464809
>don't speak to her, but keep her on social media if she ever decides to stop being a cunt
this. She'll eventually miss you and contact you. Don't be needy/desperate. Act like you don't care.

>>17465038
Was leaning towards this. All the doubt and wondering really eats away at you though, goddamn.

>>17465061
she's probably interested in getting back with you, but she's not completely sure and you're going too fast, so this is scaring her and turning her off. Just pretend you don't care for a bit.

Stay hydrated and eat lots of fiber. Seems to be result of your diet and nothing too serious. Remember this happening to me two years ago and the doctor told me start buying fiber cereal to move the stool along better.

>>17464769
I typically stay really hydrated, but could definitely do better with fiber. Thank you, I'll try and get some in me tonight. Do you think I should wait til tomorrow to go to the doctor or hospital? I'm kind of worried about waiting if it indeed is some sort of blockage.

>>17464777

I wouldn't go to the doctor until a week after you change your diet a little. Then if it is still blocked go to the er then.

/ic/ sticky is supposedly good.

Pick random things to draw.
Animals. Fruit. People. Shapes. Whatever. Just keep doing it and constantly look for ways to change it up. Also be prepared to take hard criticism

You really need to learn the fundamentals and draw with pencil and paper.

A tablet cannot accurately replicate the subtle hand movements.

Tablets are good for touch ups and basic drawing.

Someone good with pencil and paper can easily migrate to a tablet for coloring and finishing touches.

Besides, a pencil and paper are cheaper and easier to carry everywhere.
