It's my birthday. I got 120 bucks as a gift.

What should I do with it? I would prefer sensible recommendations. If it's an investment idea then I'll only go for something that'll provide returns at most within a month. If I don't see any good ideas I'm just going to waste it on internet poker I guess.

Yesterday I texted a girl who has been very flirty with me over the past month, she has a bf but has frequently said shes not happy with him several times and are pretty much on the verge of break-up. Anyway we texted for a couple of hours, it went really well and we planned to text again tomorrow.

>Yes, we both got a little flirty
>I said I'll keep an eye on her "because I've got nothing better to look at"
>She said she wants to come round to my house for a meal and called me her "sweetie" a couple times

Thing is all 3 of us work in the same place. I was at least an acquaintance with this guy since we work a couple days a week on the same shift, but he found I was texting her today (And I think he read the texts but I'm not too sure).

I cut him a deal that I won't text her for a week until he sorts his relationship out with her in exchange for no drama at work. After that its fair game for either of us.

What are my options? This girl is going to keep trying, and this guy will probably keep getting upset at that. I'm not sure what to do from here.

I really have a strong urge to pick a fight right now. Like a physical one.
I want the adrenaline rush of punching someone and being punched and I want to fight someone who deserves to be fought.
Someone who either wants to fight or someone who is a bad person and deserves it.
I dunno why. I just want to fight
Anybody know how I can get this going?

I'm feeling pretty down right now. I turned 20 today and I feel empty.

I'm not going to college. I have no idea what I want to do for the rest of my life. I have a part time job that pays okay, but I blow most of my money on Blu-rays and music downloads. I do donate a decent amount to various organisations I support, but I'm not really saving anything.

All of my friends are still in high school. I don't want to look like Matthew McConaughey in Dazed and Confused, but I have no friends my own age that I still see.

Like Morrissey says, I am a human and I need to be loved, but there's only one girl I can see a relationship with, but I feel like I'm so far from being worthy of her. I've been jerking off to teenage actresses and models for years. Now that I'm 20 it's probably time to grow out of that habit. I don't want to simply fap to only adults. I want to quit wasting my time and energy masturbating entirely. It's just so hard. I wish I had more self-control.

I spent most of my day in bed because yesterday was really long and tiresome. I usually get some food from one of my favorite restaurants on my birthday of course, but today my dad brought some KFC for lunch, but because was asleep until he came back, I wasn't hungry so I let my brother eat it. I had an apple later. I'm not bitter about this, it's just the first time I've had a birthday that doesn't feel like a birthday at all.

I've just been sitting here thinking about my life and it's bumming me out. I'm looking at Facebook and the 17 people who wished my happy birthday. The one highlight of today is the girl I'm in love with commented.

>Happy birthday buddy!!!!!

Right now, all my hopes and dreams are contained in those three words and five exclamation points.

Thoughts?

So I'm stuck in a red state and don't make enough money with two jobs to get assistance for living. I barely make $600 every month and have to live with my parents because it's not enough to live off of. I even held a manager job and all they would pay me was $10/H.

I am sick of this shit and I'm I'd say a 6-7/10 in good clothes and make up, so I was considering extreme measures to raise some money. A friend of mine suggested I camwhore, but I feel awkward about that. Flat out prostitution I don't think I could do because I'm too vanilla. Someone else suggested I just make tease videos but I know nothing about this. I've heard horror stories, but I've also heard good things on the subject when you're a decent businessperson about what you do/do not do. Does anyone have any suggestions? I was actually offered a camera service by a friend if I would agree to make porn where I take guys' virginities (willing guys, as I've been a lot of 25+ year old's firsts but that was just because we're friends) and he said I'd keep any money made off of it.

I suppose if it's a friend and I care about them, I wouldn't mind so much and it's not really prostitution because we're friends so I would care for them and not just fuck/buck/and tuck away. He said that sort of stuff would sell well. Would it?

I have a girlfriend that used to "fuck around" alot, and now it's looks like as we are just friends. There's also the looming thought that I will move away and I won't be able to see her anymore. What do I do? gif not related

So I crushed hard on this girl back in highschool and eventually asked her out. I asked if she'd like to do something sometime after talking a little bit for the first time.

I probably came off as desperate and I probably was I guess. She told me no she has a boyfriend and I just fold her oh alright, bummer. Cya!

I'm thinking of asking out more women in the future. What do you guys think of what I said?

I don't normally do this so this is why I'm asking haha.

So, today I celebrated my 11th anniversary. Small party, some neighbors and friends came over. My wife kept introducing me to people as "her boyfriend", which she's done on and off (but mostly on) for most of our marriage.

Should I be worried? Should I divorce her?

>Be wary of autism

I can't even try anymore. There's no point. I try to talk and people laugh because I apparently talk funny. I can't tell when people are being nice and when they're mocking me. I can't have fun around other people.
I wasn't meant for this town, country, world. I just keep to myself now, hope no one talks to me.

If I killed myself no one would remember me and I'd waste my only life. I need suggestions about what to do

Hi all, need some help with a girls in general. Basically i'm a 20 y old virgin dude that never messaged a girl, or even had a relationship. Dunno why, i do not consider myself ugly and/or stupid (that required some work though, low self esteem problems). Lately things changed quite a bit and i was able to set a date with a girl tthat was older than me.......we both agreed it couldn't work. It all comes up to yesterday, when i sent a friiendship request on Facebook to another girl, which according to a friend of mine should be interested in me. The problem is that i'm fucking scared, and i don't know why. The very moment i sent her a message saying "hi" i felt like shit, thinking about "wtf you doing man she won't ever like you, get over it". What The hell is wrong with me, do i just need to step out of my comfort zone and grow some balls?

What's the point of being black if you have no real friends and shit at basketball?
> inb4 practice. I did that shit and only got slightly better
I'm anxious as fuck, which is in fitting for a black. I swear I hate being black. Living in Brooklyn was a fucking mistake. I'm 18 what do I do
