Do people other than me exist?
Am I a person?

I get you but there's no way to say that without coming off as a prententious douchebag.

But I get you. It's like there's this gap between me and other people that doesn't exist for everyone else.

No, you live in "different" worlds as how you perceive it differently than somebody else.

Everyone lives in their own "world" and communicates to other people's worlds that seem simular, but never really are. Some people's worlds are more distant from other worlds, which becomes clear if you try to communicate with someone that has severe autism (not the meme assburger autism that might be somewhat true, but I believe that assburger is something that has more to do with a kid's upbringing --> never learned to socialize properly, and it's getting worse because of new technology).

philosophy of this nature has been turned into something that is viewed as being pretentious or pseudo-intellectual.

Hell, philosophy in general has had shit smeared on it in the past decades. No one likes the philosopher anymore, and for anyone to consider themselves one only serves to set them apart from everyone else.

which beds are best? how do i do research on this i have no clue.

i'm thinking queen size because it's just me. is $1k usd enough?

beds are mostly a preference more than an actual 'what is best' thing. thoguh some are clearly better than others.

if you can, try one of the new purple matresses. its 1000 bucks for a queen size last i checked. you can try it for a hundred days and get your money back.

DONT BE AFRAID TO GET YOUR MONEY BACK. most people just buy and dont fucking bother changing it when they dont find it comfortable.

I'll greentext to make it shorter:
>met a girl one year ago, let's call her A
>I notice some vibes from her like staring at me often and smiling, touching my arm when we are close, laughing at my jokes
>realize she's really cool and really good looking
>suddenly one day she starts being cold with me, avoids eye contact, acts weird when we talk, refuses to dance with me at some parties
>I feel bad for not having made a move or something before
>I notice she likes some guy who's a mutual friend, let's call him B
>another mutual friend sort of confirms this when he starts teasing her constantly about liking B
>B gets a girlfriend and stops hanging out with us for about 2 months
>A starts becoming friendly with me again, but in a more friendish way not a romantic way
>maybe it's because my dad and A really get along in some charity group they are part of (I can't join it because of college)
>meanwhile I try my luck asking out a friend of A but she's not interested in me
>and I'm still interested in A
>suddenly B breaks up with his girlfriend and advertises how single he is

So where do I stand now? Is it too late to make a move? Or should I rush to ask her out soon just in case she gets into something with B? Besides if I ask her out and get rejected it will be a bit weird considering I've also asked her friend out before like I mentioned.
Anyway, thanks.

It's another thing to actually do it. I'm in a somewhat same situation right now.. I did ask her in person last weekend but our conversation got interupted and I didn't continue it afterwards ffs.
She is really "cover-up-shy" /timid/reserved. It's really fucking with my head because I can't read her.

A fellow anon wanted to know more about this in a hobbies thread, but I wasn't able to get to it in time to respond. Making an ama thread in hopes he and others might catch it.

I spend the bulk of my free time doing barbershop quartet singing. I compete and do gigs with a quartet and travel to several conventions each year. It can be a time consuming and expensive hobby, but it's a pretty fulfilling one I'd say.

So yeah, feel free to ask me anything about the barbershop world or just singing in general. Pic related, though its seldom what a quartet looks like nowadays.

>>17356836
Hey homie, that was me that was in that hobbies thread. How do I get started? I haven't sung since elementary school. Do I just find a local chorus and tag a long? There is a men's chorus near me should I start there?

I am not a barber, though people often ask if I cut hair when I tell them I do barbershop. There really aren't any requirements. The vast majority of barbershoppers are amateur singers, so you don't have to be a music wiz to do it. As for what I do, I sing with a chorus every Thursday night and rehearse with my quartet on Sunday evenings. I can go into more detail for both of those things more if you'd like.

>>17356862
Joining a chorus is pretty much how everyone starts out. There are many barbershop choruses or "chapters" throughout the United States and Canada. You can find one by using this link (http://ebiz.barbershop.org/ebusiness/Public/ChapterProximitySearch2.aspx) or simply google "barbershop chorus in X".

Chapters are mostly all associated with the Barbershop Harmony Society of which I'm a member. You don't have to join the society to participate, but you do if you want to sing in a competition and get other member benefits along the way.

Be warned that not all choruses are created equal. There are some large choruses with a wide age range among its members as well as smaller choruses which are made up exclusively of old timers. I've sung with both and don't find the older, smaller choruses as appealing. At any rate, just go to a chapter meeting, introduce yourself, and go from there. Barbershoppers are a pretty friendly and welcoming bunch.

Everyone's always asking the opposite but let me explain my scenario

I have been struggling on and off for 3-4 years now with a condition called Gastroparesis. It makes it extremely difficult for me to eat large amounts of food without being in pain. This, coupled with the fact most of the only foods I like have low calories, is literally killing me. I am 19 rn and am currently weighing 85 lbs, and have never gone above 105

People always comment on how small I am and that I don't care about my health and it horrifies me because it hurts so badly to do a normal everyday thing 3 times a day(and the pain can linger after that quite a long time depending on the situation). I look in the mirror and I can see myself getting smaller to the point where it looks somewhat sickly, and the sight is frightening. I really just want to be normal and be able to live without something simple being so complex.

Please help me 4chan and tell me if there's any way to gain weight without eating a ton, or if there's anything super calorie dense out there other than chocolate or whatever. I'm desperate to get better

Ever considered that your "gastroparesis" could be psychologically inflicted?

Medfag here

Talk to your specialist. I imagine you're on something like metoclopramide or domperidone already?

My off the record advice would be fats. You literally can't eat anything more energy dense than fat, at 9kcal/gram
Try olive oil... But expect some mean poops if you do this endlessly

One pound of fat is 3,500kcl. You'd gain around a pound of fat for every ~400mL of olive oil, on top of your maintenance (which for you would be very low)

Fried chicken, fast food, milk shakes, king size candy bars

I read doujins, watch pornography, and look at x-rated photos but I dont masturbate to them. I just like to look and watch it. Is this weird and not normal? I just cant get "turned on" by this.

I am American. I had a high school French teacher who is from rural France. A friend of mine wants to visit Paris. Is it appropriate of me to ask him for tourist attraction recommendations, interesting things to do in Paris and ways to avoid being ripped of as a tourist?

Has anyone ever tried to change a fetish?

For as long as I can remember, certain smells have really turned me on. It's dumb and I don't know why it happens.

If I see a naked chick I'm limp, but if I smell a girl's makeup, or hair, or sweat I get rock hard. It's at the point where if my girlfriend is fresh out of the shower I can't get hard. I hate it.

have you had great sexual experiences where it involves sweaty sex with running mascara? we relate these 'pheromones' to geunine good times that excites us, it lets us know 'hey this is how it smelled/looked like when i had a great time'.

Its not a fetish.
>>
>>17356736
Yeah definitely, sex while camping with my ex was intense.

Fetish or not, it's frustrating, is there any way to drop it?
>>
>>17356746
Not really. My ex enjoyed the smell of me when we were really intimate(im a sweaty borderline pig compared to her petite big booty frame), its all about hormones telling us to mate with that individual.

Rather than hate it, just enjoy it. It's common with humans.

I seem to be surrounded by people (East coast of the US) that don't know how to communicate with their words.

As kids, we generally learn, "If you need help from someone, ask them", right? It's not hard.

But when everyone has a "It's not fair that I should have to ask for help" or a "Words are too personal a manner of communication for me" mentality...I don't know. I don't even need advice, just confirmation from someone that I'm not the only one noticing this, this weird way people communicate.

Example: Roommate mentions hes going to mow the lawn. We split rent evenly, but he has a kid, which feeds this "My fuckin' house" mentality he has. He mows the lawn, and then later, holds it over my head that he did that, as opposed to me having done it, even though never was there a "Hey, can you mow the lawn".

Do yall know what I mean? Whats up with people's egos and shit stopping them from direct communication?

A better way to word the problem:


People are quicker to find something to be a problem to them, relating to someone else, and then operate on that problem with that person before or without ever communicating that there is a problem.

They develop an idea that subtly boosts their own ego in the form of seeing something as a problem, but they never open their mouths to use words to let reality challenge the words, because they would rather hold it in and operate with it.

dude EXACTLY

There is this co-worker I like, we are both the age and we most of the time work the same hours. I am too shy to talk to him besides small talk before work. Ive messaged him on social media and he hasnt replied and I texted a buddy of his to give him my number and he never texted me. His best friend also told me he likes me as well. What should I do? Am I coming off as creepy?

How the fuck do I stop myself from going full sperg?

When I get angry I can't control my words - sometimes it helps in getting other people's respect by "roasting someone", but my 2 latest relationships ended with girls crying and running away.

I get super butthurt when someone is just stupid or lies to me. A couple of years ago, when my gf cheated on me I literally destroyed her life by screaming at her in the classroom and bringing up all the embarrassing stuff.

Gah, I usually just have a faggy smile on my face while loudly offending someone in a way that makes them cry

It doesn't really look like I'm mad but I'm burning inside. The classroom one was an exception. I'm not proud of what happened.

Hey /adv/, social retard here.

I'm going on a date with a girl by taking her on a trail and hiking trip somewhere in Austin where we live in. Problem is, I've never been on something like this before.

What the hell do I wear and bring for this kind of thing? I literally have no idea. Snacks? Towels? Sunscreen? Keep in mind the Austin's weather is the same as satans asshole right now.

Please don't tell me I gotta bring something like pic related. It's a one day thing.

Not a big ass backpack please, khakis, light shirt that matches khakis, hiking boots/shoes. Trail mix. Water bottles (not alot of them because too much weight), a compass, potable battery charger for phone, flash light, knife, sunscreen, mosquito repellant.

Dont bring alot of weight as I said, if you can a man purse (fanny pack) would be best and just joke about your man purse to your date to break the ice.
