Hey /adv/.

One of my best friends is engaged to a woman who loves him dearly. He has asked me to be a groomsman for his wedding. His fiance is Jewish. The wedding ceremony is going to be Jewish which means he's joining the tribe. However, I harbor some negative feelings towards the woman and her faith. My grandfather's home was foreclosed on accident during the last recession and later auctioned off to a landlord who was Jewish. All of his belongings and anything of material value were taken and sold by the landlord. Grandfather lost the will to live and passed on not long after. Dad has been extremely vocal since then about the Jews and it rubbed me in a negative way too.

What can I do? I know anti-semitism is wrong, but I don't know if I can be around people that I resent even though my friend wants me to attend the wedding.

What's more important, your best friend or your ill will towards the Jews?

>>17358339
>person doing job indirectly leads to a persons death without their knowledge
>happens to be Jewish
>"Jews are evil!"

No, sorry, but your dad is an idiot. Would he blame anyone if it was a white Christian? My bet is no. He is racist and looking for excuses to complain.

Don't be an asshole. Support your friend, learn just enough about Jewish weddings to not make a fool of yourself, and just get on with life.

>meet a girl
>talk to her a lot either IRL or through text
>she really enjoys talking to me and if she shows up at a party I'm at or a friend's house or something wants to spend majority of time talking with me
>I develop a thing for her but am too scared if I start showing overt interest too early she won't go for it
>Takes like a month for me to finally build up the nerve to ask her out
>Literally the day or sometimes even the minute after I finally work my way up to it I see or hear that she's in a relationship with someone, usually from my circle of friends

Why the fuck do I keep doing this to myself? It's like I either know with a high degree of certainty that a girl likes me or know that if I ask her out it won't be awkward between us afterwards because we always end up becoming friends after this occurs, but I just get never get myself to do it. It's like there's some automatic mechanism in my brain that forces me to wait until it's already too late to ask someone out or make a move. This has happened with the last 4 girls I've liked.

Maybe you're the DUFF (Designated ugly fat friend), it might actually be a real thing.
>>
>>17358307

maybe you are using that as an excuse. like 'OH SHE WOULD HAVE TOTALLY DATED ME IF IT WASNT FOR THE FACT THAT SOMEONE ELSE ASKED HER OUT FIRST'

there is no mental trick to beating this. you know the problem, you see it before you. start asking girls out.
>>
>>17358319 It would make sense desu. All of my dude friends are super attractive compared to me and that's not just low self-esteem talking it's something we've all pretty much agreed on before. We did that whole shit where we figured if our life was a sitcom I'd be the funny fat guy (even though I'm not that big anymore)

>>17358321
>there is no mental trick to beating this. you know the problem, you see it before you. start asking girls out.

I guess the real question is how to deal with low-self esteem issues. I've had pretty bad anxiety and self-esteem issues since I was about 13 and all throughout middle an high school I had really bad experiences with girls that I won't go into, but they're cringe material for various reasons. These left me really jaded for a while and when I finally lost a bunch of weight and actually started trying to participate in my friend group and have a social life I knew that women didn't automatically think I wasn't worth dating or whatever but I still react the same way I did when I thought all women hated me back in high school

Hey, /adv/. My girlfriend wants to give a semi-popular singer she's seeing in concert a gift (which is a collection of drawings).

How would we go about getting these to her? I know sometimes it's pretty hard to do these sorts of things, but I'd like to try.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Is it a stadium concert? How large is the venue?
If they're still a down to earth musician then showing up at the venue before things get crazy and talking to the merch people about taking something backstage for you might work.

Who's the musician?

Guys stop. This feels like a troll thread. It has the same formula where man does a favor for women to gain favor from a man. We put in effort trying to find out his story, which involves some form of unrequited feelings, cuckoldery, and weakness.

How fucked up would it be to go out with my best friends ex? Gymnast ass for your time

It depends on the context and on the people involved, but usually it's at least a little bit fucked up.

Also that is a sad bottom.
>>
What kind of split did they have? It's kinda fucked up, but if they split up mostly amicably it's probably okay.

I'd be worried about bringing them around each other. How much time do you spend with your best friend irl? Could you successfully segregate the two? Did your buddy break up with her because she's a crazy bitch? all important factors to consider.

Hey /adv/.
I've recently converted to Christianity and I've a friend who is religious who I want to talk to but I don't know how to go about doing it.
I was an agnostic atheist for a long time (as long as I've known her) and she's been pretty aware of that. I'm studying physics in college atm and part of what sparked my interest in science was my belief that it is the best way of describing the universe so I mean, this is a pretty big left turn for me from where I was just 6 months ago.
She's probably the nicest person I know but I don't know how she'll take it if I tell her. I don't exactly have a lifestyle/opinions that aligns with church teachings (the initial event that helped me find faith was drug related, I'm a homosexual, I believe in sexual liberty, abortion, etc.) but I am certain I believe in God and Jesus. I don't want to lie to her but I also think she won't take me seriously if I tell her and I might even offend her.
What do? Advice from any Christians is especially appreciated. Pic slightly related.

Do you go to church at this point? You need something concrete to prove that you aren't bullshiting. What made you convert? That actually might be the best way to explain it.
>>
>>17358281
No I don't. I'm friends with a lot of people in my local church who I amn't comfortable with talking with about it atm.
I feel ridiculous just saying it but I was high and I thought I "felt god's presence". I wasn't sure what to think at first and put it down to the drugs but I have been praying, meditating and reading the bible over the last two months and I don't even know how to explain it to myself but I really sincerely believe God is hearing me and even answering in small ways.
>>
>>17358306
Maybe go over bible passages that have helped you. If you were making it up you wouldn't be wasting your time going through the bible. I don't think she would think that you are putting on some sort of ruse at that point. I guess I don't know why she would think you would be fucking with her.

Not OP but is it worth telling my parents that I have a personality disorder?

It might not be coming totally out if the blue since I have a brother with diagnosed autism and anger management issues and I'm already on Lexapro for anxiety/depression.

I'm not going through any issues or anything but my hope in telling them is that it'll help them understand why I'm adverse to people and relationships.

I'm currently living at home while attending college.

depends what it is. and whetheri ts real or if you are just using it as an excuse to be the way you are.

all that being said what would you rather
>explain that its just part of 'who you are' and reach a level of understanding
>or instead have them NOT truly love you for who you are, but just excuse it since ur technically retarded.

id rather just explain it as a part of me, rather than a part of a brain disease.

>>17358235
Shame, it would be a nice touch to the personality disorder.

I used to hate being alone, Then i got smarter and realized that im better off. I already lacked friends to begin with and the ones i had weren't really friends. I spent 3 years single after my last break up. Then my old co worker reactivated her facebook and started talking to me. we've hit it off well after the first year and now im really starting to miss being alone. we've hit a spot where we kinda end up arguing over some stupid shit every day. mostly because im irritable and hate everything around me.

My suggestion is, if your alone and okay with it. Stay alone.

Hey guys, I'm kinda fucked. I've been getting steadily sicker over the past ten years, and I can't seem to find any doctors who don't give me the same "YOU HAVE DEPRESSION HURR HURR" bullshit. Sorry, but severe (puking and rolling around in agony) dysmenorrhea, hypothyroidism, sweat that smells like wet hay, confusion like I'm constantly drunk, and constant exhaustion don't sound like depression to me. Where do I find a doctor who isn't a total dipshit? Kansas City area.

I do have suicidal depression that comes with it so the doctors overlook the physical stuff. I'm so frustrated that sometimes I want to just go jump in front of a truck. There's got to be a way out.

I'll take any suggestions, from herbs to cutting off an arm. Been researching online for three years or so to try and figure this out but there's gotta be something I missed.

I would see a nutrionist or gastroentologist. Could be diet related, seems to be the root of what fucks up a lot of people. Hell maybe even try a holistic healer. I view most of what they do as common sense for the most part, but I got a bunch of cysts on the back of my neck and they gave me some asian herbal supplement that looked like black BB pellets and the shit cleared up in like 2 days.

Generally no.

but context is key. If i was really into someone and we had a long term relationship, and there was going to be a period of no more than say, six months, where we wouldn't see each other at all, i would consider it.

but as a general rule, no. your question is very vague. its like asking 'would you date a blond'. sure... depends on the blond though.

good luck

I don't feel attracted to women like I used to. There was a time where I used to feel active attracted to women, where an attractive woman could turn my head; where I used to pursue them and play the dating game. But for two years now I just really haven't had that interest any more. I still get laid semi regularly, but the desire to have a woman in my life is almost completely gone. I'm just totally indifferent to any chasing or pursuing of women. If they don't come to me then bad luck, and I haven't come close to meeting one I'd shack up with again. What's wrong with me?

Have you ever heard the theory that time is relative?

basically, the way it works, is that the more time you have, the less time feels like.

the first day you were born was the longest day of your life. day two was just a little shorter, and so on and so forth.

once you've lived several years, a single day doesn't seem like a big deal. but you remember how days seemed to be never ending as a kid?

factoring in memories oyu lose in early childhood, some scientists estimate that your entire year at the age of 75 is the same length as your summer when you were 17.

even more interesting, even with those calculations, scientist estimate that by the time you are 17, you have already experienced half of your life in terms of the length of time. thats right. 18-90 feels only as long as your childhood.

now take that logic, and apply it to women.

the first time you loved is so hard, and each times a little less. you chase that feeling, but as time goes on you realize people are more and more flawed. you become more comfortable on your own becuase the more girls you have (and even the ones in porn count to some degree) htere is something less exceptional about each new one you meet.

its normal more or less. its a bit more extreme for our generation cuz we are basically all sluts and expected not to settle down til thirty at hte earliest. but that gives you an amount of romantic and sex partners most generations didnt have, as they used to marry quite young, and even if you werent married, courtship and sex were a lot different, less 'to the point'.

people used to figure out if they liked each other before having sex. now they have sex to figure out if they like each other.

this isnt bad imo. it makes you more independent. and when you DO meet someone exceptional, you know they really are.

Is it too old to be going dating during your 40's? I've been single for ten years and my brothers have formed a family but me. I don't want to be called a loser but these days dating is hard. There are less straight women out there and let's not forget the damn untolerable friendzone bullshit. Many tell me that life during the 40's are better than the 20's but that's midlife crisis mumbo jumbo. I need help asap.

p.s. please exclude suggestions like online dating,going to bars and joining clubs. Been there done that.

Yes. legally speaking you are only allowed to date until 28. at that age you have two years of legal grey area where you may 'court' a woman, but if you dont propose by the third date you could be fined, or even arrested depending on your state.

It seems like more and more people my age are getting married. Its actually kind of frightening because I have not even had a girlfriend yet and I am mid twenties. Just the other day, a old friend of my mine got married at age 26.

I am scared shitless because it makes me feel like I am missing out on life.

My primary issue is that I can't provide what women want. I have no car(decent used cars are so fucking expensive.. 7000 USD for a fucking toyota carolla around here. USED.), I don't really have a funny personality. I don't like taking the lead and I am pretty boring.

I have to force myself to seem exciting and it comes off as unnatural and try hardy.

I am fucked. Its strange because find that women wonder more about "What can this dude do FOR ME" rather than "What can we do for each other?"

I also find that women are really hive mindish. They won't think themselves through problems or opinions but instead just look at what everyone else is doing and just do that. Even if its shitty. Remember the ugg boot craze? That shit is STILL going on up here in new england.

Anyway, am I missing out on life? People tell me that I should just live and women will come into my life. I have been living for about 2 decades and a half now and zero women have come into my life.

Don't worry. The dirty secret in life is that there are a ton of people who will grow up and be alone their whole lives. We've all been conditioned to believe everyone will find someone eventually, and make babies. There are a crap ton of people who will die alone, ;)
>>
>>17358194

Why haven't they rebelled yet? If someone said "You are destined to die alone."

I would definitely fly into a rage and kill fate or something. No way in hell you are going to make me live with the urges and then tell me that I can't fulfill said urges that were given to me per being a fucking human being.

FUCK. THAT.
>>
>>17358167

your logic implies its a race, or that there is an endgame. and while marriage may mean the end of a lot of adventure, its not the point of life. we are not racing towards getting married.

my friend recently started dating. ditched me for his girlfriend on two important occasions. I called him out on it and said he was pussy whipped. everyone said i was just jealous that i was 'behind'.

but its simply not the way it works. everyone knows they're going to get divorced anyways, so why not skip that step?

it sounds to me like you are missing out in the dating field, sure. but you aren't missing out on being married.

Hi 4chan. In the past I have said some negative stuff about you. A person that raped me used to frequent /b and I attributed his sexual violence to that but I realize that things must have been much deeper then him just frequenting a message board.
I was raped three times by three separate people. The police won't do anything because there isn't enough evidence. I don't know what to do anymore. I am probably going to take my own life in the next couple of years. The flashbacks are intense. My labia is permanently scared.
One of my rapists raped me a month after I was raped by his friend. He knew about it.
I need help. I need something. I don't know how to reach out to anonymous. I know they go on here a lot and I am begging them to please help me. I don't know what they can do to help but it is my last resort.
I wanted to try to press civil charges against all of these people but I can't find a lawyer willing to take on the case and my parents won't pay for lawyer fees. They think I'm just a fucked up druggie (I'm into psychedelics and that is it) because of their conservative outlook on life.
I'm scared. I'm reaching out to you all. Please help.

We're you doing drugs or currently high when these events took place?
>>
No. I had a couple drinks when one person kidnapped me and raped me. Not enough to get me drunk.
The other person gave me a mixed drink with ghb laced in it and I had about half of it before I felt the effects and passed out
>>
I should also add that two of these people come from extremely wealthy families and I think that is why the police will not pursue charges against them. I don't even want there fucking money. I have family money of my own. I told the one that kidnapped me after I pressed criminal charges that I wasn't going to pursue civil charges because I didn't want his money but now it seems like that is my only opinion but no lawyer will take my case. I just want sebelence of justice. I want them in jail. I don't want there money. I want them to be incarcerated so they can't do this to anyone else.
