What do?

Kek just dump her if you feel insecure. Not youve invested much time into her.
Oh don't be sad cat!
You picked up a stray who wants to go home. That's all. But no, you are insecure and want to vent on a Korean Knitting Pattern Exchange Board.
If you can't trust her two fucking weeks into your relationship, how do you think that's going to work when she comes back from her little vacation? You gonna go through all of her clothes, sniffing for some foreign cologne, inspecting her body for marks, reading betrayal in her eyes?
Yes to all, son. Yes to all. You aren't mature enough for a relationship yet, probably due to some separation issues with a parent. You absolutely must get over that first before any relationship has a snowball's chance in hell.
Think about it.
>>17417509
Thanks. That is actually solid feedback, except for the separation issue.
Let's say, she is kind of flirtatious type of woman who has mostly male friends and aquaintances. Hard to say if he is just orbiting.
How do you cope with Health Anxiety? 6 weeks of therapy and i'm still going crazy over every little thing.
Any /adv/ers deal with this?
>>17417427
Ativan
If you can't get an RX you can try Kava Kava... stuff works pretty well with no side effects and is available at any whole food/sprouts
>>17417427
Have you talked to your therapist about it? You may change doctor or start going to a psychiatrist and start taking pills. Nevertheless I have 0 experience with therapy and pills but I think you should seek for help to a professional. Even though here there are a lot of people with anxiety problems, r9k is a board with lots of these people so they may understand you.
>>17417449
My alloted sessions have ended, I would have to go back on the list and wait another 3 months. Building up the courage to go to the doctor.
Is it normal for a LDR to fizzle out once you become comfortable with each other? And by that I mean, is it normal to not talk to your SO for a few days to a week+? Just complete radio silence?
I want to believe he's still interested and just very busy, and not trying to ghost me and hope I lose patience/take a hint.
Am I stupid?
>inb4 LDRs are a waste of time

>>17417394
What do SO and LDR mean?
>>17417394
how long have you known each other/ LDR dated ?
>>17417440
Significant other; long distance relationship.
>>17417441
I met him about 2 years ago, and we've been dating for most of that.
>Found job on Craigsist for driver position
>Few E-mails later he tells me all of this
>Tells me to put money in my account then transfer some of it to somewhere else
How shady does this sound to any of you?
Seems legit, might be an immigrant with only a decent understanding of the English language.
Dude, this is the like #1 internet scam.
They write a bad check
You cash it and send good money
Bank comes after you for bad check
Now's the time where you fuck with him.
I remember when I was feeling out a car ad job for Redbull, and then the dude dropped this scam on me.
Then proceeded to be like "I'LL HAVE YOU ARRESTED FOR STEALING MY MONEY" when I told him I cashed the check and am spending it.
But, I know better I ripped the check up and threw it away and trolled him until he quit.
>>17417380
It sounds like pic related though.

Kill all distractions. If you waste time on websites (like this one), get a browser blocker addon or go study in the library.
Hey /adv/
Is anybody willing to give me their impression of a girl's behaviour towards me?
I admit I am fairly retarded, mentally, so I would like to see what you guys think as to whether I ever had a chance with this girl.
I will post a relevant greentext if anybody is willing to respond.
Go ahead
Sure OP

Thank you both. I'll try and keep it short, though some detail is necessary:

>another small company moves in to the floor below
>we share a printer with them and it's in our office
>don't pay attention to them at first
>notice a girl who is attractive but only at a distance
>walk downstairs one day and she is talking really angrily with her co-worker about another colleague who keeps leaving early (the time I am leaving)
>figure it's her responsibility for that kind of thing so don't think badly of her, but still don't feel any way towards her
>look at the ground and walk between them
>go to the bathroom one day and she is at the bottom of the stairwell wanting to come up
>wait there and she leaps up two stairs at a time but I stare without expression down the stairwell
>I have to move seats to sit near the printer
>one morning she gets my attention by saying "excuse me" and asking if I know where spare paper is kept
>when I look up towards her our eyes meet and I feel like it lasted for ages

Cont...
So I'm an alcoholic.
Saturday morning at about 5 am, I'm hammered and decide it would be a good idea to hit the highway with my bike. I tried a stupid manouvre (so I'm told by the er staff), and rear-end an SUV at 70 mph. Lucky to be alive.
I was in the hospital for about 18 hours. My injuries are actually minor, but for some reason knowing I almost died doesn't do much for my motivation to quit drinking.
Anyone have a similar experience? What's the best way out of this mess?
This fucker hurts a bit too.
>>17417135
The obvious answer. Stop drinking. Get help if you need it.
The way you're living right now is like a coward's version of suicide. It's bad enough that you don't care about yourself, but when your cries for help put other people's lives/safety at risk, then you're just being a bad fucking person. I hope they take your license away from you. You shouldn't be allowed to have a car or a motorcycle
go to rehab
I think I lost interest in women
I'm 30 years old, software engineer, decently well off, decently good looking.
During my 20s I lived a few relationships that all lasted around 2 years, and all ran into the same roadblocks - refusal to respect my hobbies, refusal to not try to manage my life, sexual incompatibility (mostly me being bored out of my mind during sex and all my suggestions for some play being refused), playing mom unsollicited then complaining that they had to play mom in the first place...
I've grown to just want to be left alone to pursue my goals and have absolutely no time to devote to a relationship now, but at times I miss the occasional emotional validation and physical intimacy - not hard enough to look for one night stands tho, I get nothing out of those.
I'm not sure if there's a particular problem. I guess hearing a friend of mine talk about the sex he's been having made me jealous. I guess I'd just like some outside perspective on the matter, or benefit from someone having had a similar experience and having learned from it ?
Gonna give this thread a second shot
It's hard to say without knowing you whether you had some bad apples or (given that a few people had the same response to you) you're not that self aware and don't realize that there's a reason for you being the element these issues have in common.
But either way, you should look after what YOU want in life. If you are happy being single and don't feel the desire to get with someone, why would you care how others live their life? And you can still decide you want to try to get laid every now and then without having a relationship.
>>17417100
Like I said I don't really care for purely sexual relationships, I'm mostly a pretty sentimental guy when I get going that mostly desires mutual intimacy more than anything else
I guess I still have some kind of hope that I'd meet someone decent for me but I don't feel like putting any effort into finding them because there are a lot of other things I'd rather pursue and my energy and time are finite resources
Ultimately I sometimes wonder if I'll come to regret those choices but for now they seem right, but the 30 years mark has been kind of a wake up call for some of my insecurities I guess.
Is there any reason I should go to college without knowing what I want to do as a career?
>>17416976
The first year or two of college are general education anyways. You can go to school and get an idea of what you'd like to major in after your first semester or two.
I changed majors two years in and still made it out in 4 years.
>>17416979
I've gone for two semesters, though, and I took general education in high school, and I still have no idea what I want. Should I just take a break and do something else with my life until I decide?
I went to college without knowing what to do as a career. I wasted a few thousand dollars and then dropped out because I still had no fuckin idea after a year.
Now I'm 26 and still don't know. I work in a warehouse and it's total shit.
What the fuck is life?
I made some bad decisions and now I have Hep C. For my insurance to cover my treatment, I have to be sober for six months. I actually made it six months without drugs (drank here and there though), amazingly, but recently relapsed once on cocaine and benzos.
Long story short, I don't know what the testing process will be. If it's just a one-time urine test, I'm good, but I doubt it'll be that easy. I think the chances of it being a hair follicle test is pretty good desu, and I simply can't pass that.
If I don't get my treatment started soon, and my insurance rejects my treatment, then my parents who otherwise think I'm sober will know I fucked up. Plus, you know, I'll still be infected with a deadly illness.
What're some practical options? They knew I drank, so I could tell them that the insurance companies wanted an EtG hair follicle test, and I wanted to have more time?
Any personal experience with blue cross blue shield drug testing?

My girlfriend doesn't like being with my best friend because she's insecure and gets jealous. I love both of them very much and want to spend time with them as often as possible, and not choose between them. What is the best way to deal with this?
Be honest with her about how both of them mean something to you. You shouldn't have to cater to her. Say that you love her but you're not going to stand for an ultimatum between her and your best friend. Don't cater to her irrationality es and enable further situations like this. She's the type of girl that'll cut you off from family too if she thinks she can.
>>17416924
I already told her. I just want to go to parties, hang out etc. with both of them. Should I force that?
>>17416886
are you really this stupid? You cannot expect to continue with your hot best friend the same as you did when you were not in a relationship. Back it off some or choose one.
Would 50 tablets of 5mg diazepam be enough to killmyself with if I weight about 80kg's?
In b4 hate/abuse. I hate myself enough thank you I got that part covered.
Don't try to off yourself using pills. Far too often it doesn't work and fucks you up for life.

If you really wanted to kill yourself you wouldn't be using pills.
Backstory: I told myself I wouldn't get into LDR again because of alot of shit I've been through that messed me up emotionally and hurt me alot. But I met this girl months ago and we got talking and over time she said she had a crush on me and as time developed I started liking her too. She's smart, pretty and sweet though she lives across the planet from me.
I used to tell her to tell me if she ever likes another guy and she would tell me she worries that I flirt with other girls and etc. But the thing is Im scared of LDR and I don't wanna hurt her even though I like her.
Recently, a friend I got talking to again has been convincing me to meet other girls or to talk to girls or "have a backup" but I feel like I shouldn't treat girls like that, that's just not who I am. But I worry alot because I feel alot of temptation and dirty though about the things I could do if I wanted to. I need some help on this. I don't want to betray her trust, even if she can't see what I'm doing but we're not official yet so I'm confused on what I can or can't do. I'd never try to hurt someone on purpose or "cheat" (i do not respect cheaters) but if we're not actually together then whats wrong and whats right?
If you're still just talking you aren't in a relationship
First off, an LDR without actually ever meeting each other in person isn't really an LDR, and people should stop pretending it is. You're roleplaying boyfriend and girlfriend, but if she truly lives across the planet, it's very unlikely you're ever going to meet, and ever going to be intimate. Your friend is right that you should be talking to other girls in real life.
As for the broader question, there's nothing wrong with talking to multiple people at once, but I've normally found that if I have too many options all at once, I get too indecisive and end up with nobody. You could be different.
>>17416884
Is it worth asking her to make it "official"?
>>17416885
I plan to visit her country next year though. Also to add, this is the last time I'll ever consider or get myself into something "Long distance".
Also before I have ended up in a love triangle over a year ago which also messed me up, so I worry about talking to multiple people.
How can I make myself cry? I feel terribly sad and frustrated and having a good cry would be a relief. I'm on the verge of tears, but get stuck on that stage. I really want to get this feeling out of me.
I tried thinking about sad things and listening to sad songs, but so far nothing helps.

Dig up the video of the nog throwing boiling water on a cat. Make sure you listen too.
If that doesn't make you cry, I don't know what will.
