My dad died when I was 15, two weeks before my 16th birthday
Am I broken? Am I ever going to be an emotionally stable man? Or are things like this forever?
I just turned 18
Who knows? You're still young. Literally anything can happen within the next 1, 5, 10 or even 20 years

Everyone is going to lose a parent at some point. Sad fact of life and sadder still in your case that it happened at such a young age. No point dwelling on the fact that it happened and how negatively it may have affected you. It has already happened and now you adjust your course moving forward.

I grew up with a shitty dad. I'm 23 and he and my mom split up when I was 17. I had issues for 3 or 4 years but I'm all good now.
It's normal to have issues for a little while.
So my only parent is dying of cancer and has SSDI income and Medicaid. They're receiving radiology treatments which aren't covered by the insurance. When they die will I be responsible for the bills?
I am sorry for your impending loss.
>>17266521
>When they die will I be responsible for the bills?
You speak of SSDI and Medicare, so I assume you're in the US. In that case, no: there ARE parts of the world where debt can be inherited, but the US is not one of them. The only debts you can be held responsible for are ones with your name on them (for example, if you co-signed for a loan or something).
That said, you won't be responsible for the bills, but your parent's estate will be. Before inheritance can be settled, the estate must first pay any taxes it owes, followed by any debts that it owes. If it can't finish this, then the government/creditors have to eat the difference -they cannot go after the heirs- but there is nothing left for the heirs to inherit.
Now, all of this said, be careful not to put your name on your parent's loans or bills if you can possibly avoid it. Some unscrupulous folks might try to trick or force you into doing so, but don't do it unless absolutely necessary. This would also be a good time to get your name taken off of your parent's credit cards, if it is on them.
Your picture is pretty cool opie. Why does the fish in sushi have to be raw? Is it always raw? How come I don't hear about people being poisoned from it?
Your picture bothers me. Half of the the "rules" are "EAT IT A CERTAIN WAY EVEN IF YOU PREFER IT ANOTHER"
Like why the fuck does the amount of soy sauce or what touches your tongue first matter
How do I get over my trust issues?
I've been having trust issues for a long time... It all started when my mom started cheating on my dad. Overheard her conversations through the other line. Saw her deleted text messages, whatever...
Found out multiple friend's girlfriends were cheating on them over the years. I just always happen to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, and get exposed to shit. I know two guys who are married with kids who aren't theirs, and they have no idea.
Basically... I'm really having a hard time trusting women. I've already been cheated on twice, and both I found out after. I'm scared of commitment. I just don't want to be hurt.

So I'm at a nice restaurant in downtown Houston
Girl I've been talking to apparently ditched or something, she called me a minute ago saying she'll be right there
Itl take her 20 minutes probably to get here
She cancelled plans twice before, should I just pay and leave?
Oh I've been here waiting for an hour and a half, I've already started eating and I drank a beer already
You're already her bitch, waiting for her for 90 minutes.
You should have left after 15 mins. She knows she can trample all over you now and you'll never get her respect again.
Yeah you should just leave and forget about her. Better luck next time. What restaurant you at by the way?
Today, I was supposed to go out with this girl I've been dating for a few weeks. I hadn't heard from her all day so I text her around 6 if we were still on for later tonight. She replies with "yes, after I pick up my sister from the train. I'm leaving in 10". I tell her no problem, let me know when you're done.
An hour goes by and I hear nothing from her so I shoot her a quick "will you be ready soon" text only to get no response until another hour later with pic related.
I go with it and respond to make sure she's okay.
Another hour goes by and then she says she's home now. It's already 10pm at this point and I just tell her it's pretty late and I've been waiting around for 4 hours for you. She then proceeds to turn it on me as if I don't have a right to be annoyed and say
>Your mad because I had to pick up my sister for father day right now
My question here is, am I really in the wrong here or do I have a reason to be annoyed at this?
>>17266467
She sounds like she has a lot on her mind
You are in the wrong. You had your time wasted for four hours, she broke down completely. She has a worse night I guarantee
Neither of you are in the wrong, you just have different views on what happened.
I wouldn’t give it too much thought, she sounds like a headcase
First time poster in 4chan.
Background on me: Moved from EU to my grandparents outside of EU because of being alone and depression. Managed to pay off all debts with help of grandma. Under these 2 years I have been taking care of my grandma, met a girl online back in EU who is now my gf ( I visit her whenever I have enough money) meanwhile been working on finishing my university degree online.
Now to my issue: Back home seen first hand a canna grow managed by a close friend. Now a new friend in this shit country proposed we do the same here so I can save money to move back home one day and he can fix his financial troubbles.
Said and done, I took care of the planning, importing what we needed and he backed everything up with the actual investing.
two days into the grow he started acting impatient whenever I put new rules for the handling of the plants or if I explained something in detail etc. Basically every time I took the lead because of my experience he started being kind of a dick. He even included a new guy as a partner without asking me. Two weeks into the grow I couldnt take his shit anymore as it got pretty severe and basically told hom to fuck off and that Im splitting.
Was I right and fuck that guy or was I just stupid and should try to mend this for the money?
>>17266429
I think you were right to leave, a stupid partner isn't someone you want to be working with when dealing with anything illegal (and just in general.)
>>17266429
Haven't you watched Breaking Bad?
>>17266429
Hes goin to llse a lot of money and learn the hard wY.
I backed a boyfriends DREAM and he pulle what your fried did ad it all felll apat an cost a lot.
I'm a 25 year old woman. Being Asian, watching anniemays has been my best childhood past time and hobby. I've had a lowkey obsession with qt anime schoolgirls and a slight obsession with collecting anime figures, esp. with characters I love (e.g. Oreimo girls). I also have a lot of half naked figs. My husbands chill about it, not too into it but he's always known me like this.
But I'm pregnant now. What should I do with the anime figures? Are they inappropriate for the baby? Should I sell them? At the same time they're my pride and joy.
I would sell them or give them
To someone who will enjou them
>>17266394
Your kid comes before your hobbies. You obviously have doubts about this hobby because of your kid so you should drop it.
You'll not even miss your figurines once you give birth anyway.
How do I get my Japanese wife into liking anime girls? She only seems to like anime guys. Weird that
as soon as I asked my boyfriend what are you doing he just disappeared from text?
and now I'm freaking out. because we were having a short convo but he replied to everything right away within the first 3 minutes, then I said what are you doing lol and he disappeared. I thought I knew what he was doing today but he sent me a snapchat and he didn't look where he said he was gonna be (unless the snapchat he sent me was taken earlier in the day and it just didn't send all day which has happened a few times)
I'm literally freaking out........I don't get why he just disappeared. I would call him but I feel like that would make me seem clingy/desperate/whatever I just don't know what to do. it makes no sense to answer every thing then disappear when I say what are you doing. all I can think is tht hes up to some shady shit........=/ and its really hard to stop myself from double texting/ wondering/ callinghim but I know I have to but I'm just scared and I don't feel good=/
chill love hes just taking a shit
>>17266386
If this was one instance, I wouldn't worry (but don't ignore it). Sometimes shit happens or maybe he didn't see it and doesn't check it.
If this happens a lot then you need to flat out ask him and get a straight answer.
>>17266386
I'm so close to double texting him.. someone stop me please
Sometimes I feel that my partner is not attracted to me anymore.
>>17266322
And why's that?
>>17266324
I like to have more sensual lovemaking and he has always liked it hard and rough.
I feel he cannot be sensual because he lacks physical attraction to me.
Ok /adv/, I have a question.
There is this girl I really like and I know she likes me alot (she even told me that) since we've been kissing and cuddling. But here's a thing. She feels conflicted because she likes me and wants to be together with me, but at the same time she wants to have this "soulmate" type connection with me, but I can' t provide it for her.
The question is, should I give her time to sort her conflict, or should I just cut all contact with her and move on.
I have discussed with her this thing and she said that she doesn' t want to hurt me anymore, but also she doesn' t want to let me go.
Any advice?
>>17266319
>wants to have this "soulmate" type connection with me
What's that supposed to mean? That she wants you to be a mind reader instead of having to communicate?
You can talk to her about reality, but if she has unrealistic expectations you should bail. This is not heading toward a happy, stable relationship.
Also are you actually interested in her as a person, or do you "like" her because she's willing to give kisses and cuddles?
There's a difference. Me, I like kissing and cuddling, but literally anyone can provide that. The important part is finding someone you actually like and enjoy being around even when there's nothing physical going on.
>>17266319
She's literally saying that she wants you to stick around until she finds something better.
I'll write this as short as I can.
A friend of mine broke up with her boyfriend and I helped her. I spend hours of boredom just to entertain her and I started having feelings for her. After a while she just started dating another dude and I don't exist to her unless she has a problem.
The fact that she is dating another dude hurts me but it's understandable. The problem is that I feel used and my feelings get toyed with and I fall for this every time. Just fucks with my self-esteem and everyday activities.
She doesn't know I'm into her, but she stills neglects me as a friend. What should I do? Can I control myself somehow?
>>17266309
She probably knows but she likes having you arohnd
This is a very simple problem with a very simple solution.
That's not to say it's easy, emotionally speaking, but it's not complicated.
1. Stop initiating contact with her (it seems to make you feel miserable).
2. If the next time she speaks to you is because she has a problem, let her know that it bothers you because it seems like she's only interested in using you for advice or support and not being an actual friend.
Don't be an asshole about it.
>>17266350
I guess I already knew the answer, just not what I wanted.
>>17266328
Probably, only makes it worse though.
Anyone have any tips on having the discipline to get up early in the morning?
I've been having to do this recently. Me and my roommate have been getting up at 6:30 AM to go to the gym to lift every morning.
Its fucking rough for the first few weeks, but once you get into the groove its fine.
>>17266279
go to bed earlier, set 10+ alarms about 2 minutes apart from one another, if your window faces east leave the curtain open overnight so you get sun in the morning, don't eat cheese before bed because a good dream makes it so much harder to get up
>>17266279
stop sleeping in on weekends. ive read it takes about 8 days in order to create your sleep cycle. the problem is after five days we ruin it by staying up late, sleeping in, and then just start over again on monday.
you gotta remember evolution had no ewekend. cave people did not take saturday and sunday to sleep in. if you want consistency, you ahve to be consistent.
also consider drinking water as soon as you wake up. immediately. then eat immediately. the reason breakfast iis called breakfast is because you are 'breaking' a 'fast' (which just to clarify is when you dont eat for a prolonged period of time.
night is the longest amount of time you go without eating. your whole body shuts down when you sleep. putting something in your stomach forces your body to wake up. thats also why its hard to sleep when you've eaten something complex like protiens. its harder to digest and takes more time, keeping you up.
consider buying sour candy, or even a little thing of lemon juice by your bed, and as soon as you wake up, put it in your mouth. it is a 'shock' but not as unpleasant as say, your father pouring water on you.
How do you let go of a want to be normal?
>>17266237
the world isn't divided into normies and weirdos.
some people want to be normal cuz they are horribly disfigured. others just arent what others might call 'mainstream' or just have peculiar interests. the definition of normal is weird. you might actually be normal but not feel it cuz the way you experience everyone else is through their facebook posts, giving you this sense that they only experience what they post.
its hard to say. the best way to let go is to simply embrace who you are. whichever way you have to.
>>17266261
I can actually pretty confidently say I can't really relate to 90-95% of the world population and they can't relate with me. People have started fights trying to politely ask me to explain my existence to them.
It's cold, dark and bleak and embracing it feels roughly like hugging a snowman buck naked.
>>17266275
maybe you're being edgy. but maybe you are not. can you please explain what it is about you that makes people insist you explain your existence?
>cute face
>body of a fridge
How do I deal with this?
Fuck her. In my experience those chicks are great, cute but no self confidence and a really wanting to please.
And you really like and her and want something long term, you can get her /fit/. Girls get addicted to being /fit/.
It like fixing up an old house.
>>17266177
Breed her and hope the good genes are passed on.
>>17266177
the face is most important to me. Nice bodies are only nice for banging before 35 years old.
I just graduated HS, and some guy (the class prez actually) invited me to his grad party via Facebook a month ago or so. I basically had no friends all HS and most of the people going were the "popular" kids. Should I even bother going? I doubt any of them would welcome me into their conversation groups or come to talk to me.
>>17266131
Why would he invite you then?
>>17266136
We spoke a lot in one of our classes, I guess you could say we were friends in a vague sense, but I never saw him outside the classroom.
>>17266144
Ahh I see. Well I honestly think you shouldn't go, I know that it might be good to socialize but it might end bad (Nobody talks to you, your just bored and awkward there) Do you still have no friends?
