A lot of it is almost assuredly true however I suspect a lot of hyperbole, cherry picking, and lying.

I doubt that the girls that actually stick to their principals are a small minority as he says, not providing the name of the dating website, etc all provide some doubt but there is just a lot of stuff that I can't simply tell are true or not due to lack of information.

it makes me feel like it's all pointless, and it makes me angry at most people for not realizing it

>>17275773
For realizing what? That women are human?
What, you think men wouldn't jump at that chance to go fuck a bitch who was out, hot, and looking for it?

Welcome to reality, bitch.

Here, we've got a small sample size of less than 100 people on a dating site ( A SITE FOR MEETING PEOPLE ) which probably has several hundreds of thousands of members.

So it's a very small pool of people relative to the community, it's a site that exists for the sole purpose of meeting people, and it's backed by virtually no objective evidence.

I really don't know what to say to you, OP.

People want different things, that much is true. When somebody thinks they have the perfect shot at something good, they're going to take it.

If it wasn't for the crippling anxiety a lot of men faced, I'm sure many of them would jump at the chance to do the same.

Pointless? No, you've just been educated. Now that you've learned, you can start making real progress.

Talking to grill is a good start.

Step 1: be female.

That's pretty much all you need.

Wear hammer pants and talk with a lisp.

So what makes you think you're going to be laid off?

>>17275627 I was told today that in the next couple weeks I'll be laid off simply because of seniority.

>>17275631
Depending on the law where you live, that's not an okay criteria for laying people off.

I have no idea what you're trying to say. You're sad that one of your exes has just got married, but not really?

How old are you and how old is she?

you can still be a part of her life as a friend if she doesn't have cut ties with you. I have a relationship like that with most of my ex's. One of which has been trying to get married to her younger boyfriend for the past year.

Do you have a job?

Continue living with your parents, reapply to college and don't fucking drop out this time. You already fucked up, pretending you haven't is just going to make it worse.

>>17275581
Not yet

Boyfriend or girlfriend?

Its for a boy. limit is like $65

Its for my nephew.

Do you feel like you are not deserving of love? Like you'd be tricking them, or keeping them from being really happy, or wasting their time?

>>17275576
yeah that might be it, i don't really see the point of relationships, not even friendship anymore

sounds like you're depressed and/or just need to spend time with other people irl more often.

Fat girls are cute, make her lose weight so she's your eternal waifu

>>17275555
I kinda like her personality, she's into Japan, just like me.

Problem is she's fatter than me, just like the last girl i dated, and she's taller than me with heels on, older than me and kinda looks like my neckbeard friend...

Anways, im torn here. Im thinking about keeping her as a friend, but i also kinda want to have sex with somthing, no matter what right now... and well, she seems like a relationship girl. She didn't want to tag along to my palce after the first date, but she's still showing interest.

>>17275567
Get your blowjobs, don't tell your friends, and keep her a side secret that should never interfere with your life.

Or, swallow your pride, and love the fatty for all she weighs, m8.

>>17275528
Stop being a fucking normalshit and fuck off

>>17275528
booze.

>>17275551
what does that mean?

>>17275507
if you've never had a job before and have no body of work, you have no CV(a CV is a specific thing).

Do you have ANY experience or volunteer work or classes or ANYTHING that could go on something like a skills focused resume? If so look up skills focused resumes and model yours after one of those.

There's millions (probably literally) of guides online that you should read. Find a template online somewhere after doing some research and follow it. Hard to tell you as everyone will probably have conflicting bits of advice due to differing opinions.

Basically, from top to bottom (based on my CV):

>Name
>Contact details (phone, email, LinkedIn, personal blog)
>Mission statement (spiel about why I'm awesome, my career goals, what I know/can do - limited to 2 paragraphs)
>Key skills, e.g. programming languages known, types of vehicles you know how to operate, machines you're qualified to run, etc.
>Education
>Chronological work history, most recent on top - Organisation worked for, job title and start date to finish date
>Each job discusses responsibilities and achievements
>Notable projects worked on or things created. Anything big you can brag about.
>References

That's how mine goes.

I have zero work experience, will this affect me?

You're never too old to get an education. I saw plenty of people in their 30s or even 40s at my uni. 26 isn't even that old, you can still make friends and party with most people at college without it being weird.

You need work experience as well though. You can't afford to do what most students do and live off loans throughout uni. If you graduate when you're 30 and don't have a single job under your belt that's a way bigger problem for you than having no degree.

>>17275514
Yeah, I started college at 24 after working in retail for like 6 years.

You can do A levels at local colleges and if you do well you can jump on a decent course at a good uni. Probably best to get some form of work experience too though, just in case

Have you taken him to the vet and had him checked? Diagnosed? Make sure he's not in pain?

I ask because it may be that he needs to be put down, and then you'll know it's quick, painless and then it won't be something traumatic like accidentally finding him dead.

Read Tuesday's with Morrie. Torrent it or get a library card (you fuck.). It's a really good memoir about dealing with death, hell, even go to the sparknotes page if you can learn the lessons without fluff.

we have, he has a thyroid problem and breathing problems due to his weight, he takes 6ish pills every morning and night, we put them in cheese though, so he doesnt mind. The most pain he experiences is his one leg really. Im reserving putting him down until he is showing no more of his normal happy goofy self.

>>17275470
You stop acting like this experience is unique to you, find another person, and put your wiener in them.

Sounds like you need closure. What about the scenario is still eating away at you?

>>17275470
That feel, I know it.
Were you also the one that fucked up so you can't even be mad at anyone but urself?

>>17275437

I did it with a relationship that was going on almost 5 years, then I got back with them for a month and a half, now I'm back to single.

Regardless if I am single or not, it's me who is miserable all the time.

Sometimes I feel I made a mistake, other times I think about the opportunities...

If you can make it work for you, make it work. I find it hard if you keep in contact with the ex, it makes it really hard in my case.

Nope. I've always felt like the novelty/thrill of new sexual partners is overrated. It pales in comparison to having somebody that you've worked to build a bond of trust and love with.

Of course, I know plenty of people who disagree with me. They can't handle being sexually exclusive with somebody for months or years at a time. I wish those people would do everybody a favor and quit wasting time for people who can handle/actually desire long term relationships.

Yes. That exact situation happened to me. And it turned out it was happening to my partner too, at the time. I was lucky enough to have them bring it up first before I did, though I'm a little embarrassed to say I wasn't the bigger person there for not being first to talk about it. But since we both felt it was the right thing to do, we stopped seeing each other, but kept in contact just as friends and started to try to see other people. Which lasted about a year. Then we got back together again because we missed being together and wanted to hook up. That was years ago, and now we're living together and engaged. But that's just my personal experience.
