I got ghosted by an online friend three months ago but it still hurts. We talked everyday for a few years. Any of you ever experienced this? Do you think the feels will go eventually? I don't think they'll come back so it just sucks that I still feel sad about it.

I am the one who ghosts. I move around a lot in my life, I'm friendly and sociable, so I make connections with a lot of people. I can't just keep in contact with all of them forever. I've left a lot of friends behind, or cut them off if they couldn't take a hint

I actually did once, but he came back. Just said he didn't have access to a computer for a few months, or some bullshit like that. Don't know if I believe it, but didn't complain at the time, was just happy to have him back.

How do I smooth out wrinkles around the eyes and generally make my skin look younger? I am a dude, 27.

I've heard drinking a lot of water helps. Anyone actually try this? Any creams that you know work?

Start taking a daily multi-vitamin if you don't already, and water does help along with greens like spinach. Also, vitamin a cream with retinol helps diminish the appearance of wrinkles.

So, long story short, it's over. Or is it?

Been together with a girl for about half a year, then she said she doesn't really love me as much as she used to. I got mad, threw her out of the house. We're not a "couple" anymore.

BUT

She still wants to be friends and begs me to fuck with her.
I made the mistake of shagging her multiple times, but it just felt like stress release I guess?
I decided to ignore her for a while, still felt like loving her, but now I just see her doing various stupid shit on facebook, like taking dance classes or whatevs. She started immediately after breaking up with me, said I was her only thing in her life and she needs to do something else too to "fill the gap".
I have no fucking idea what that means.

Anyway, now that I think about her and seeing her having "fun" or whatever, I feel absolutely mad. Everything about her makes me mad. She writes me on fb, but I just answer with several words, not even holding a proper convo.

I'll see her in a month, wondering what to tell her - last time she said she wants to be "friends with benefits" - which is kinda good - I get to fucking dominate that bitch every time, I slap her, choke her, pull her hair, cum inside - which is really, really great. She loves it. But on the other side - I don't really know what to feel about this.I just want to be truly loved.

So, wat do?

Its over.

Terrible idea.

No, its bad.

Cut off all contact.

Guess you're right, thing is, I'll definitely get to see her during the next school year.

Also, I really don't get her. Everything was so great until this point, I don't know. She started saying how she's a terrible person, coming up with her own trivial problems that she made up herself, various stupid shit in general. I just was there for her, to help her get through it.

It's almost like she enjoys feeling bad? But with me, she had little to no problems to deal with. She kept saying how safe she feels with me, but when she's on her own, it's suddenly terrible. I don't know, she seems to get along just fine, after a month of almost no contact from my side.

I just think I didn't do anything wrong, well, until that point I basically told her to fuck off if she doesn't love me.
>>
>>17424930
Leave it alone. You're an ass for dealing with her feelings by throwing her out. You don't love her, your reaction to her shows it.

On some level you realize you have some power over her, being that it was you who ended it and you are the one who decides whether to get back together. That's some manipulative bs you need to watch out for - don't get used to using people's feelings against them. If you get used to it you'll ruin your chances for a happy life with the next person you fall in love with. Cut contact. She will do things to reach out or to get your attention because she's hurting. Let her hurt, ignore it. It'll heal. You'll both move on.

I feel trapped in a bubble guys, I cry myself to sleep a lot because of how lonely and empty I feel. The thing is I'm a decent looking guy I just have no confidence because I was a late bloomer and was always teased for being short/squeaky/young looking, now that I'm actually a decent height, fairly muscular built, starting to look closer to my age my mentality is really holding me back from talking to girls and people in general. I don't know what to do.

Has anyone rented a room from craigslist before? I have never done it before and I just emailed a bunch of posts saying that I am interested in checking it out tomorrow. Except I'm not sure what the procedure is exactly. Do I go in look around and just ask general questions about parking, laundry, utilities, and stuff, then sign papers?

One guy agreed to let me see one room tomorrow and he said "please bring a $600 deposit if you like the place." Is that normal? I don't want to give that amount of money without receiving "collateral" first. I can't move in tomorrow as my out of town school starts in 2 weeks, the whole reason why I am looking for a room.

Yeah, but beside that how can I guarantee I'm not just forking over $600 for no reason? What can I do to make sure I don't get swindled?
>>
>>17425028
He said bring it if you're interested. If you like the place, then give it to the guy and continue with the process (signing the lease, etc.)
And as far as your question goes, yes. Craigslist is a great place to find rooms or roommates.

About a year ago, I was close to being homeless and needed a car for my job. A friend of mine I was venting to about it gave me some great advice and encouragement that lead to me getting a new place, a used car and a new job. When I got the car and place, I asked what I could do for him and he only asked for dinner at my place, gas for his car for a week and just that we remain good friends.

We were good until he found out the job offered me more money than expected. Instead of being happy for me, all he would talk about is how much money I was making and how I owed him big for everything he helped me with.

I didn't really know how to react to this except that I told him I appreciated him being there for me and that I'm always there for him if he needs my help for anything.

That was about 5 months ago. I didn't hear from him until about a week ago. He calls up wanting to catch up. The conversation leads him to demand I go switch to his bank, insurance company and mechanic. When I told him I was good with what I already had, he went batshit and told me I still owe him for "getting" me "everything" I have. He's "casually" mentioned his girlfriend not having sex with him anymore and needing a loan for a new car so I'm thinking he wants favors along those lines.

While I'm grateful for his advice, in the end, everything I did was with my own money and effort. But still I don't know exactly how much thanks I am actually supposed to give him. If I help people with things I'm usually good with a thanks or them helping me out when I ask but I've never asked anyone for money before.

I'm starting to feel like I stepped into some kind of trap with him and I don't know how to get out of it without being ungrateful. I'm not going to have sex with him and I don't have enough money to help him get a car so what do I do, guys?

Just give him the same advice if it was so good and tell him to fuck off.

I borrowed my roommate's playboy, just to try fapping to something not on a screen. It was in the magazine stack in the living room. I set it aside mid-fap and got a little water on the centerfold (Not cum) but it kinda looks like I came on it (which i wouldnt do) what whould I do? Put it back? Make it disappear? Fix it somehow?

How do you deal with having good quality of life if you work a night job? Specifically, for jobs from the afternoon to midnight?

Give more info. What days do you work, just for starters?
>>
What do you mean by "quality of life"? Do you mean a social life? I worked that type of schedule (2nd shift) at a 24 hour call center. I simply made friends with coworkers who were on the same shift as me, and all was well.

If you're taking about just general life quality, then I don't know what to tell you. I loved working 2nd shift. Sleep until 11 most days. Have time to squeeze in appointments, errands, or school before work if you need to. Go grocery shopping at midnight when no one else is around. Avoid ALL traffic.

Maybe this should tell you something. If all it took is a bit of kindness from a stranger to turn things around for you, maybe your problems aren't bad enough to kill yourself over. She's not the last person you'll ever meet who'll make you feel this way. And maybe next time, the timing/circumstances will work out better.

Hang in there, anon. Everyone wants to kill themselves when they're 19. I sure did. I'm glad I didn't do it.

>>17424799
Maybe you could find a way to keep seeing her, that you could stay friends or whatever you are (over internet even).

If not, your problems were obviously due to loneliness.

can you record abuse without the abuser knowing in Georgia?

Maybe you have a recorder on you in the middle of a fight, do you have to tell them?

I write professionally for an online company. I had trouble finding inspiration/motivation, the same as you. But I find that if I'm given a deadline by someone else, ie my boss, then you bet your ass I'll find some motivation. It's my rent payment, food, etc. on the line if I don't.

You'll never get 'serious' into writing unless you have some big incentive. Think of it like a cliff: unless you jump off, you'll never get the skills to fly.

So, as you guessed, I quit my day job and became a full time freelance writer. That got me going, that's for sure. But I forced myself into a crisis situation where I needed to hustle to make money and become better at writing.

So unless you do that OP, you're not going to get anyway with poetry writing.
