Sounds worth it to me, I very much doubt anyone will find it strange, your story of taking up your grandfather's name isn't awkward or weird, I would think you a noble man for doing something like that. Do it OP.

Keep your current last name as a middle name. Solves most of your problems. I know heaps of people who go by their middle name instead of their last name, and most of my mates know me as "Firstname middlename", not "firstname lastname"

All or nothing. This wishy washy bullshit does not pay tribute to your family.

Now this is the kind of thing /adv/ was made for!

Surround, baby. Always Surround.

>>17277450
Use whatever format is optimized for your particular A/V setup. If you've got a 5.1 setup, use 5.1 audio. If you've got stereo, use that. Headphones are stereo, so if this is a queation about what to use with headphones, stereo is the answer.

>>17277450
5.1, idiot. Surround sound is better.

>>17277415
either tell her u changed ur mind OH MAN BIG DEAL
or

>hey babe i wanted to present you with this special treat for our anniversary, a video if you will, it's me and chad having some fun, i knew you'd like it! ;)

>>17277430
Thanks, man. That's what I suspected. Honesty truly is the best policy in these situations I guess.

Being in a constant state of simultaneous arousal and disgust with your own sexual proclivities is a hallmark of the male experience. Its only a big a deal as you make it.

>>17277410
OP here. I kinda just want to know what steps to take as far as CL. Every woman so far has linked me to a site that asks for my cc number, and they say it's free or just $1 to confirm I'm not some creep or serial killer, which makes sense, but I'm not about to give out any info or do any transactions for something like this, unless one of you has already been through this. Help

>>17277424
Idk anything about this but those all sound like scams.

>>17277424
That's a scam, and you're a dumbass for even considering that.

Talk to your doctor. Also, is she hot? Post pics, man...

Really? I have a very hard time (no pun intended) finishing with any girl, although I can get it up really easy. As far as I know, they love that they can keep going on for as long as they want to, although I'd understand it may cause an insecurity issue in your girl.

Try to get her suck or rub you, it may help at least get something into the condom. However, if you fuck unprotectef, it's easier for youbsince it's really easy to fake it: I've never met a girl that actually feels the cum inside her.

The only experience I have with this is that I know Ozzy Osbourne complained about the same thing.

>trying to get her to cum from penetration alone
Found your problem, you're shit at sex

>>17277386
Ok. Then what can i do currectly

>>17277386

Found the little dick

Customer service experience combined with an A+ certification means you're a shoe-in for service desk work. A Service Desk analyst for a major corporation makes a shit ton and all they do is tell people to restart.

>>17277389
do you know how I'd go about looking for a service desk job? I live in Florida so tech work is kinda few and far between
I've checked craigslist periodically but it's always old stuff or obious H1B Bait

>>17277378
Ron?

But seriously, become a server. I work in naples florida as a server and in season i make at mimimum 100$ a day

What you want to be is a linguist. CIA does need linguists, but you have to be damn good at it. Better languages to learn would be Arabic, Swahili, Farsi, or other middle eastern or African dialects

>>17277314
I see, I hate those languages though. I tried them but they were just way too hard, I had better luck with Mandarin and that was hard too. However, I like the Clandestine Services branch the best.

To be honest it depends on what you want to do at the CIA, and whether you want to find yourself in certain countries. If you want the best chance of getting into the Clandestine branch, then learn Arabic, Russian, or an Afghani dialect (Dari/Pashto); graduate with a perfect GPA, and be passionate in what you're doing at college.

I don't work for the CIA, but I do work in the Clandestine Operations branch of my countries' intelligence agency. It's extremely competitive, and although you might be able to get a job while being an expert in German, your chances are going to be much higher with something else.

If you're struggling with learning a difficult/advanced language; both immerse yourself in the culture as best you can, but also 'learn' the language; as opposed to just rote learning / hear + repeat, etc.

What kind of role do you see yourself in OP?

My little brother is Chad and I make fun of him all the time. He doesn't dare do that to me though, he's even stronger than me.

>>17277310
My younger brother is a chad, and the youngest is a skinny nerd, and they both make fun of me all the time. The younger one generally only does it when the middle one is around though. I hear them talking about me in other rooms, and when I confront them about it, the middle one has a field day. "You're fucked why would we want to talk about you? This guy. Why are you so paranoid man?" But I CLEARLY heard them talking about me.

I'm bigger than him, but he's never afraid to physically assault me either, beacause he knows I won't fight back. Apparently he's been doing it since he was two years old. The other week he spat in my face during an argument, and I demanded he apologise, but apparently according to my parents i had to stand down or they'd call the police? Not him?

>>17277316
wow if I was you the next time that happened i'd beat the shit out of him and let him know where he stands with me.

you're like the great dane that gets bullied by a chihuahua, absolutely pathetic

Why would anyone want to be a cop?
Also, being in the military/former military community, a LOT of people I know tried to be cops. It's a hard road (Maybe harder for former military if I believe some rumors), did you take a lie detector test.
Do you have some former neighbors who may have seen you do shady teenage shit back in the day?

>>17277320
I'm actually military haha. I'm a Marine Reservist, no suprisingly for a guy in California I have a very clean background. I passed my polygraph, my written test, my physical test, and my in person interview. I feel like it's a job I'd enjoy.

>>17277320
I'm literally just sitting I limbo waiting for a phone call (hopefully soon) saying I got the job. Problem is I can't apply to any other departments or I'll get dropped instantly and in California it's a very lengthy process so I don't want to get disqualified for applying somewhere else

without reading the rest of the story: no, you know she is bad for you and the only reason she broke up with you was because trying something new. but if you take her back be prepared for things like that happen again. however this is your decision. good luck to you sir, gotta work

I'm in a constant tug of war between getting back and getting over it. On one hand, I love the girl to death and would be happy to just solve everything one piece at a time and have a life together. On the other, I'm pretty much in a heartache that she left me in such a brazen manner, got involved with an ex-friend of mine less than a week after breaking up - and still IS, she can't seem to end things with him before asking me back, if I take her back she dumps him, if I don't she'll just keep going. Can't get out of her comfort zone.

I said I don't want to reconcile immediately and she thinks some time apart will solve things. I don't want to lose her presence completely but also don't want to be a pushover or re-engage a relationship that is fated to fail a month later. Thoughts?

>>17277296
Thanks for the input, I'm just tired of hearing only my own mind about this.

She sounds immature, OP. Not the kind of girl who's seriously considering this future you've talked about with her. Just move on and find thekind of girl you deserve.

You're going to be 'that guy' if you do this

>>17277273
I-I think I don't want to be "that guy"...

>>17277264
My face when OP is carrying around a sousaphone or an upright bass.

What the fuck do you play?.

Drink a lot of water immediately and you should probably go see a doctor. You could have overdone it and damaged your body.

>>17277247
Ive drank a ton of water but it's not making me feel better. Usually I drink like two or three glasses of water after a night of partying and I feel fine but it's been two full days of water and Gatorade.

>>17277242
Something might be wrong with you but it probably doesn't have a damn thing to do with alcohol.

>>17277225

Stop being a faggot who needs cuddles. You're an adult.

If you're not, this is an 18+ site, leave.

>>17277248
I know this is bait but

https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/affectionado/201308/what-lack-affection-can-do-you

>Specifically, compared to people with less skin hunger, people who feel more affection-deprived: are less happy; more lonely; more likely to experience depression and stress; and, in general, in worse health. They have less social support and lower relationship satisfaction. They experience more mood and anxiety disorders, and more secondary immune disorders (those that are acquired rather than inherited genetically). They are more likely to have alexithymia, a condition that impairs their ability to express and interpret emotion. Finally, they are more likely to have a preoccupied or fearful avoidant attachment style; they're less likely to form secure attachments with others in their lives.

>>17277262

It's not bait. It's really not. You need to toughen up and take care of yourself. There's a bunch of shit in life that you're going to want and aren't going to have. And "cuddles" are one of them. Once you hit a certain age, people aren't going to curl up with you and tell you that everything is okay.

More constructively, so I'm not being a total fucking dick, maybe get a puppy, or a cat? That can help with affection.

>>17277203

Try Grindr.

Whats that?
