A lot of people who are dissatisfied with their current lives think they'll move to some magical new place, and everything will be better.

The fact is, the same guy who finds little success in Dallas will probably find little success in San Diego IF he continues to put in minimal effort.

Acknowledging that, going to San Diego might be really good for him. He'll be closer to family, he might run in with a bigger music scene, and he might get the kick in the ass necessary to really hone his music skills.

When he leaves, you should feel happy for him. You're both around 18, it sounds like. You both have a lot of growing and developing to do. You'll be completely different people in as little as two years. Don't give up hope on him yet, yeah?

This sounds cheesy, but as a friend, you should remain cognizant of his current faults, but continue to have his back. The next few years might be hard for him, but I think he'll appreciate your honest criticism and encouragement.

I know you'll miss him. But this is something everyone has to go through.

"We were best buds in high school but grew apart in college" is a tale as old as time. You're in that age range where, whether you go to college or not, you both have to start living your own lives and defining yourselves. This process may very well separate you two. Learn to accept that and grow with it.

I want the best for him honestly. He doesn't have an amp for his guitars and is counting on his brother in law to get one for him (he's been waiting for over two months) so it seems like he's waiting on him but he certainly could have gotten one for cheap by now. And he's been talking about moving for years now. So I doubt he'll want to stay unless he finds a girl who won't go with him. I think if it's really what he wants and needs then yeah that's great. I'm just not understanding the big picture he's got in his head about it, which upsets me.

You should opt for sick gains you skeleton fuck

One pieces are cute.

I feel so self conscious with boobs this tiny. Every girl wants at least a C cup

My current major is computer science. I picked it because, when I was applying at my college, I thought they offered an information security major. They didn't, and so computer science seemed close enough.

So far it's more math than I would have thought or would like. Still, all my professors have been cool.

I kept changing it and then just chose non-profit management because I enjoyed helping people out. Ultimately I didn't get a job with it. I work in recruiting now.

>I don't know what I'll do but I like genetics so I'll do cell bio
>Year 2: "fuck this neuro is cool"
>End of Year 2: "fuck science is a bitch, fucking bio, but math is ezpz. Econ is ez too. I'll do applied math and become an actuary"
>Year 3: "this is great but linear algebra sucks ass (still pulled off a B and an A for the two parts)'
>Year 3 summer: "wow insurance wants to make me off myself! My god why would anyone do this?"
>Year 4: graduated with applied math degree. Get job through long time girlfriend's dad

In my experience a lot of people take similar roundabout routes to their degree and career. Just pick something and don't be afraid to change.

eat more garbage food.....

Why? I don't want pool water to get into my eyes

>>17409664
The first thing is knowing survival skills. One of the first is knowing how to lie on your back - fill your lungs, and recline back in the water until your legs, arms, stomach and head are all roughly level with the water. What this does is makes you as buoyant as possible (air in your lungs acts as ballast, and your create as much surface area as possible to keep you above water.)

After that its a case of staying calm, keeping your bearings, and kicking softly until you reach the side of the pool.

Just remember to keep breathing, filling your lungs does no good if you hold your breath and end up passing out.

There are other techniques you can learn, but those are probably best learned under supervision of someone who knows what they are doing, so for now just stick to the basics.

Where are you planning to swim anyway? Try to go somewhere with a lifeguard, just in case things turn pear shaped. Being in the water isn't all that dangerous, but things can go bad fast so it helps to be aware of the risks and prepare for them.

I'm fairly sure I don't love her anymore. Why do I still feel anxious when we talk? It's been almost three months since the breakup.

I don't think you are a bitch. I think you are just a sad person. You live a sad life in a shitty apartment with just your cats and only living off sad frozen pizzas. You look like a middle school English teacher and so your act passive aggressive and shitty to everyone because you have nothing else. :)

I haven't slept for three days, meds don't help and i want to die.

>>17409246
dont say anything just fuck her right in the pussy. If she has one.

>>17409248
the problem is
in her mind i'm just this nice dickless friend, so if i suddenly get intimate something is not going to seem right.

she's a bit older than me (about 10 years), so I think I can play the 'I'm still learning' narrative and she'll be understnad

>>17409246
Always through actions, man. Girls don't want you to tell them what you will do to change your miserable character. They want to see the positive change to get sexually attracted to you.

How can I duck out of a date early without hurting her feelings? Assuming it's a coffee date, how long do I need to stay? How can I give a clear sign I won't call her without being a dick?

So when is the point where you can actually fart while being in the same room as your girlfriend?

>>17409155
At least stay 30 minutes if it's a coffee date. How do you know you want to leave in advance anyway?

>>17409156
Whenever she's comfortable with it. How are we supposed to know?

>>17409106
just get a gf lol

>>17409108
I do have a gf and she's actually a year older than me lol

>>17409106

Just learn not to stare at people like a creep when you find them attractive. It'd be almost as bad even if they were adults

>>17408392
don't do it, it might cause you to really lose your job this time

I'm sure you can find another guy with a sub-par body in your city that you don't work with. Don't get involved with this guy.

>>17408392
One guy calls you cute and you lose your shit?

Oh boy, attention is a hell of a drug

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

what the fuck is this

The only thibg I can think of is to convince her that he is her half brother because her dad had an affair or something.

But this is contingent on the kid being born in a placd her dad lived at the time.

I like this thread already,
I got a dream project I want to do anon, but it's gonna talk a long time, which is fine, but I keep not working on it. Quite often I'll think about it, and want to start working on it, but I jist dont. and even when I do get to work, I stop after a couple days, but still keep thinking about it.
How can I stay om track to finally finish it? Or atleast get om the road to finishing it?

When I was 15 I left highschool and taught myself programming at home. This was when PHP was just getting started so I chose that and made a browser MMORPG game. Unfortunately it was a huge project and I was a lazy shit, but I knew that when I finished it I'd feel awesome for accomplishing something big and just sticking through it. Sometimes it was all I did all day, other times I spent 5 minutes here and there and hated even those little periods. I failed so many fucking times it hurts to remember, and I wasted a huge amount of time. But I kept going. I kept fucking up and kept failing and I kept fucking up and failing. After fucking up and failing a few more times it was finished and I was done. That was www.colony-wars.com (no longer around, but it had 60,000 members in it's prime and made me a lot of money, especially for a 15 year old).

Moral of the story: You're supposed to hate it, that's what hard work feels like.

Some other tips:

>Stop worrying about perfection. Identify the MINIMUM key steps you need to accomplish for your project to be done with the least amount of work and work towards those linearly if possible.
>Set out a roadmap of targets, and set a goal and process for each one. Google SMART Goals and use them, they work.
>Just keep working, once you have a roadmap/targets then all you need to focus on is the next thing you need to get done.

Sex, power and the occasiotional recreational drug

>>17404081

Doesn't matter, we can't get it in this day and age so we settle for video games and dead-end jobs.

I'm sorry that I don't try harder to deserve you.

Maybe someday my head will convince my heart. I'm looking forward to it.

Put your dick away you stupid butch bitch
