What is your definition of normal?

>>17391665

Y-your asking on an anime image exchange weeaboo site?

I have a 'weird' question, that I don't know how to feel about. I'm quite depressed, unmotivated and have hard time focusing or enjoying company, but when I drink about 0,06-0,1l of gin/vodka I suddenly want to sort out everything that is on my mind and become happy.

I was thinking if drinking 2-3 shots in the morning could be beneficial with my coffe, since it would motivate me to do stuff. Or maybe through out the day when I feel lazy and spend time on computer do no reason, instead of learning. I don't drink or smoke, I live healthy and active in sport , but I've noticed that I'm doing extremelly better when 2-3 shots are done.

I'm bartender so.. Despite me not really drinking, I do sometimes make myslef 2-3 gin tonics and I feel as if I could do anything and am happy about myself again, therefore also enjoy company and talk with strangers about nothing as much as they want. I don't know if this is becoming alchocolic or what, but 2-3 shota last me about 2 hours of focus/motivation/happiness and no worries/anxietis about myself and future.

Any personal experiences with this?

>I don't know if this is becoming alcoholic or what

Yes it is. You're dependent on alcohol to provide you with happiness and comfort. It's incredibly unhealthy and you'll develop a nasty addiction, kill your liver, and end up depressed and desperate for another drink.

Either learn how to function without the aid of alcohol, or have fun developing cirrhosis and dying alone with a bottle of gin by your side.
>>
You are alcoholic.
>>
>>17391687
Okay, I drink 2-3 shots about twice or three times per week when I'm at the job and have nothing to do other than feeling depressed.

However, I thought it might become handy drinking everyday if I procrastinate too much. I guess you are right.

>>17391689
Lol, this is like saying my father is alchocolic for drinking some wine after a work. It's actually normal to drink wine daily where I'm from (Europe). Some even consider it weird if you don't drink a beer or two, glass of wine per day. Especially in summer. So I'm far from being alchocolic, but just wonder where this might lead to and if it is normal to function like that.

Break into their homes but don't steal anything. Repeat this a few times. They'll lose their minds trying to figure it out. Also once you get bored you can leave like a lava lamp and it'll totally mindfuck everybody. Even the police

I started dating about two months ago, I know my girlfriend loves me very much, so we started talking about our past. I am an ordinary guy, I never did shit besides smoking pot and getting drunk, but she told me some pretty dark things that have disappointed me a lot about her. She had a very destructive relationship, her ex bf forced her to have sex or throw her out of his home. After they broke up she started doing coke and having sex with random guys which she didn't ever recall their names. It shocked me a lot. This shit was was 4 years ago. I know I projected all my illusions towards her because I felt she was perfect for me and the way she treats me is beyond what any other girl did for me, and when I learned that she is not a princess, not perfect, it disappointed me a lot. How do I do to get over it, taking into account that I love her and I want that our relationship work out.

4 years is a long time
I have done things 3-5 years ago that I regret now, I am a different person and those mistakes from long ago made me learn a lot about myself. I learned a lot of lessons in 5 years.
You are the type of person who gives me anxiety, someone who only sees the me from 5 years ago and not the present me. It hurts.

>someone who only sees the me from 5 years ago
Yes, I know. That's exactly why I created this thread, so someone help/advice me to see her present, not her past. I know I'm very proud of myself and resentful. But the thought of her sleeping with a bunch of guys is killing me. I just need to get my shit straight.

not as good as you would think. alot of cuddling positions are uncomfortable. i love the idea of sleeping in the same bed as my gf but the actual act of it is uncomfortable,i end up just wishing i was in my own bed, on my own. the guy in that anime pictures for example probably has a dead arm.

Had a long list of emotional/mental issues I had to deal with so I'm on medication. Problem is that I now have no sex-drive and find it incredibly hard to get a full erection and really hard to cum. I'm 28 so I really don't want to ask my hot female doc about viagra or any of that shit, so is there an alternative? I don't really wanna order shit from some pharmacy in Poland or take some gas station horny goat weed stuff.

Has anyone here bought new furniture? Anyone work at a furniture store? I'm talking decent stuff, not ikea. How much negotiating power can i expect to have?
4 posts and 1 images submitted.

>>17391594
I just recently was on a bit of a furniture hunt.

New furniture stores don't really haggle on the price much, and if they do it's still overpriced as fuck IMO.

We needed a new couch, and possibly coffee table.

Went to about 3 different furniture stores. One we were haggling with on a couch, and he was actually biting a little, but only came off like 50 bucks.

Ended up finding a great near new couch on Craigslist and haggled with them for over $100 off.

Benefits of having a pickup truck and another friend there and ready to move it out with cash.

It talks.
>>
>>17391604
OP here.

I guess i always thought there was more room to haggle furniture prices. It's not like everyone goes out and buys furniture on a frequent basis, so wouldn't it make sense for them to cut me a break in order to make more sales?

I'll probably end up taking the craigslist route when something decent pops up.
>>
>>17391711
Yeah, that's kinda the approach I was thinking.

But, I guess with all the financing options, and repo's they're seemingly always getting money, and their furniture back. So, I'm sure it's a pretty steady flow.

The one that was willing to haggle with me was a small furniture store in a run down outskirt part of town, and he still didn't budge as much as I needed him to to purchase his couch.

Cash talks to people. But, stores that regularly finance people without cash, and repo their stuff back get paid, and their furniture. So, I can see how cash talks less to them.

I went to a Pokemon go meetup over the weekend and I hung out with one girl for around 3 hours. I ended up getting her number, and she seemed alright to the idea of getting dinner. She mentioned being single and whatnot every now and then.

How do I end up actually asking her out? Do I try to do some small talk or can I just be like "Hey are you free on Friday/Saturday?"

Throw a pokeball at her when the circle is smallest. You might need to feed her a couple of razz berries first to make her like you.

I think what works very well, is just being plain and forward about that type of stuff, but it's pretty case specific. (depending on ur interaction, if u flirted at all etc...)

I'm 25 and I've had a Fiance for more than 5 years and good friends for the same amount of time.
I only feel true happiness when I'm spending time with my friends, all other moments with my Fiance I find myself missing my friends, every time he wants to go somewhere I wish it was with my friends instead.
The thing is I love him, and I know he loves me, We provide for each other, we both probably couldn't survive normally - emotionally and financially....at least financially for me.

But I fantasize about living with my friends instead, should I just give up on my dream?

I don't want to be a leach on him, I do love him and I want him to have want he wants and needs, Id let him have all of what he thinks he owns more, even our cars that are in our names, he pays for them the most because my job is shit compared to him. But I'm afraid I will break him...even break myself, I'm afraid I will end up missing him.

If I leave him for my friends will I truly be happy again?
If I stay- should I be at least honest about my feelings or keep it to myself?

I really think Ive grown as a person since I met him when I was 20, my friends helped me realize my personality and sense of humor...my Fiance is nothing like my friends...this is why I cant stand him near them, is that selfish of me? I feel horrible about it.
>>
I desperately need advice I will wait.
In the mean time I will continue to respond to other questions on this board.
>>
Do you think it's a problem that your fiance is not like your friends? Do you think it's worth ending a long relationship?

Sometimes different people provide different comforts to a person. I really like being around my friends because we can just take it easy and have fun doing just about anything. I really love visiting them and make trips out to see them semi-regularly. My SO has met them and occasionally comes with me, but I mostly go alone.

My SO is my partner in life. We solve problems together and share a lot of the same hobbies. We truly look out for each other and love each other. Sometimes I get anxious about how I feel like I should live my life more like when I'm with my friends, but that's not a good forever plan for me.

What do /adv/, I'm from a latin american country (one of the safest and most economically stable) and I'm 22 and my dad (53) has been talking on the phone with someone (probably a lawyer) about moving to Canada and shit, and he hadn't told me anything yet.

This shit has kinda shocked me, first of all my dad doesn't even has a university degree, and he's sick (diabetes, hypertension, obesity) and we're middle class at most, borderline lower middle class. My mom is just a plain public school teacher.

My dad has his own small business I was intending in inheriting and this shit is like a big red flag for me, I know business hasn't been good lately but this is genuinely a bad choice, my dad is naive and the type of person prone to being scammed and shit.

How do I talk him out of this? For 22 years I've seen my dad making retarded choices but this really concerns me.

I'm not NEET, I got my university degree and work in a good place, I'm more concerned about my parents than me.

Well Canadians are inherently racist. They're a predominantly white country and white operated business will do their best to keep you out and not trade with you.

In otherwords they are alot like Australia and their policy of "fuck off were full". Just tell your dad he will be miserable there and have no one to talk to. People will hate you and your family.

Just approach him with your concerns and see what he has to say.

I just told my dad this, I hate shitskins as much as anyone else but my dad thinks that Canada is a "progressive and welcoming place".

He literally just used the words "sell everything and move out and get a job" and I'm genuinely mad, he's a fucking sick 53 year old guy with no high school degree, he just basically ignored me, also he clearly doesn't give a fuck about handing me his business even though I'm his only son and I got into my shitty career just to inherit it after he retires.

He just fucking lied to me, I asked him if he was talking to someone from an embassy and he's just talking to some random people "that work with the embassy", might just be a scam.

There's a girl I like and I just heard she went on a date with some guy I know and might be going on a second one soon.
Would it make sense for me to ask her out as well? I know you'll say I should just look for someone else but this girl fits a ton of things I want in a person and I don't want to give up on her if there's not a good reason.
And no moralfag advice please. You are allowed to date more than one person when you are 20 years old.

Sure, you're "allowed" to, but it's a shitty thing to do. If she's going on a second one, she probably likes this dude too.

Why didn't you just nut up and ask her out before? Regardless, sure, ask her out, but don't come back here bitching about sluts and whores when she turns you down because she's already seeing someone.

I currently live with two other guys and we all heavily use the interwebs.

The problem is the net is being laggy as fuck, mass ping fluctuations
and sometimes it'll just sit a lot higher than it should be.

The thing is it only seems to be like this when one of the housemates is in.
I currently pay for the internet so I have a greater say in its use however
overall its a shared thing where we try respect each others usage.

I'm fucking fed up of getting shit internet everytime this housemate is in.
I've tried broaching it many a time but he just denies doing anything.
Theres been many a time where I've asked if hes downloading after
a period of really shit internet and suddenly as if a miracle it goes back to normal.

Can I please get some help with sorting this shit whether it be proving
he is using all the internet so I have a viable reason for getting his shit sorted
or a way in which I can be prioritised or have greater control over the bandwidth.

I need your help before I lose my shit and do something stupid.

I am going insane.

I have a pair of bipolar geeks for a family. They switch between extremes - I love you, don't you ever forget that, to their negative extreme: maybe my life would be better off without children.
I don't know which side to trust. The bullshitting "everything is fine, your parents love you, son" or the repressed angry geek side which always talks about selling me for a nickle.

What the hell am I going to do, /adv/.

Seems like shit, anon. Family can be brutal sometimes and complicated. If you don't have a job already, try getting one. If you can, spend less time with the family. Take hobbies, make more friends, etc and generally get air more often. I've been in the situation where it was basically impossible to get away from family, but it helped when I made more room to breathe, moved away, etc. If they've been like this for their entire life, they're probably not going to change on their own. Have you tried suggesting family therapy? Parents can be assholes and a lot of them forget that their own kids have legitimate lives and feelings. Try reaching out to them if you havent already.
Good luck bud

TL;DR
Separate yourself sometimes for a little air
Suggest family therapy
Express yourself if you haven't already

Should I just tell them that if they want me gone then they can arrange me a nice suicide kit? or that's a bad idea cause they're going to send me to their looney bin.
They're the kind of jerks which only love you for being their kid, not for the qualities you have as a person. Some of them are genuinely mentally imbalanced and don't know what they want or how to get it.

They're geeks pretending to be intellectuals, but they can't read the simplest things in a person's mind. Quite frankly they're disabled at being psychologists, they can't help a person emotionally if they got paid 10 billion dollars. They don't know how to react, how to make you trust them, make you truly believe in them. They come off as a bunch of sociopathic hypocrites who don't know themselves what they want: mmhmm maybe I should forgive him, mmm maybe I should kick him out of the house and then call him back 1 month later.

Hey, OP. My father, grandmother and probably my great grandfather all have (had, in the case of my great grandfather) bipolar disorder.

My dad never said abusive stuff to me, but I dealt with his extreme shifts a lot and it hurt. I managed to cope by moving to another city, but not too far away. We've slowly patched things up from a distance.
