I want to do a 180 with my life. I'm 23 and I've literally only ever had videogames (and my ex) as an interest. But for the last few years I've gotten increasingly disinterested.

What I want to do:
-Lose weight (I'm a 5'4'' fat manlet), been my dream for a decade, but always lacked motivation
-Get a "new" (old, repairable, preferrably free) bike, and go wherever with it after work every day (can't get- and don't care for a drivers license)
-Reduce time at "home" (I live with 0 affection parents) to something like less than an hour a day, sleeping excluded
-Learn to meditate or such
-Maybe meet someone to call a friend again

What I'll do instead:
-Get home, sit at my computer and lurk all day
-Sometimes play a videogame
-Get annoyed and feel like shit over old internet friends who I don't like anymore (including my ex who I wanted to try to get back together with but she proved to me that she isn't interested in becoming a decent person)

Well man what do you want someone to say?

You've just said you'll ignore what people say to you. I get that. But you probably also "know" the answer and you just have to work on it.

You'll need a job to get away from parents. You'll need to forget about this "ex". You'll need to exercise. You'll need to at least reach out to old friends. If it feels weird, cut it, but if they extend a branch go for it.

This is fucking 4chan. Nobody is gonna tell you what you don't know. Just try and make a move man. You need to motivate yourself. For me, it took a lot tries losing weight, eventually I committed. I hope you do too.

>>17263474
Yeah that's right. I know exactly what I want but I'm too retarded and lazy to do anything about it. I dunno.
I'm depressed and suicidal, so I'm just venting.
>>
>>17263478
I get it. I'm a fucking alcoholic idiot refusing to graduate college. We all have our issues. You're ahead of the curve by knowing them and how to solve them.

I'm also super depressed and have thought of suicide. Seems nice but also weird to me. Also painful to anyone and everyone around me. Don't wanna be the guy who at 23 dies because he gave up so early while others went on.

I honestly hope you the best anon. I think about suicide often but I have to objectively disencourage just because of its nature.

I hope something good happens to you, anon. Go for a bike ride at night, you may enjoy it.

Not sure if I totally understand your question, but here goes. You're on the advice board, which is a SFW (safe for work) part of 4chan. The "shocking" stuff is on b, and likely other NSFW boards. Just avoid those. I'm not so tech savvy as to say that you can individually filter the stuff you see on 4chan, but maybe other folks can chime in here.

1. Lurk more
2. Don't click on gifs
3. Don't browse /b/ or /x/
5. Recognize that those things aren't even that common on this website

Ok so I'm gonna try my best to explain what happened. A friend got me into this fat mansion party, and as soon as I showed up I saw a ton of kids from my high school that i hadn't seen in over a year. (I'm graduated, in college btw) and immediately went to go drugs weed lmao with an old buddy. So before reading, remember I'm pretty damn burnt AND i knew or at least knew of almost every person at this party.

Theres a girl there that I've always seen at school, but never had a class and never talked to (legit no joke 10/10). There was this circle of me, a few friends, and her next to me. I can say for a fact that I'm not sure if it was intentional, but she was slightly scooting closer and closer to me in this circle as we were all talking.

Some drama breaks out, and everyone is going off in different directions, and it leaves just me and her there. I'm gonna try really damn hard to list what was exactly said.

QT: "O what the hell, what is everyone doing?"

No idea, i swear there is tons of drama going on all over this party.

"Right? Its crazy"

Yeah I got no idea.

*theres a slight kinda awkward pause right here*

Hey you went to Anon High right?

"yeah I did"

I think I always saw you walking, never had a class with you or anything"

No we didn't, but yeah I've seen you around."

Well hi, I'm Anon (I go to shake her hand)

"O cool, I'm QT (fuck yeah she shook my hand and is smiling"

From here I don't remember. We talked, it didn't seem awkward, and then we sat down. I didn't take the seat next to her cause I wasn't sure if she was interested or just being nice, so I sat across from her. Rest of the night we were in the same area, but not really talking much, cause I'm seeing so many kids from my school.

So today, I went to work and around 1 PM I followed her on Insta. I think she legit may not have seen it, cause she has like 4k followers and hundreds of likes on each post. She has her Snapchat in his Instagram, and my friends convinced me to just message her.

So I did about 25 minutes ago. She added me back really quickly, but opened the message and never replied. Now obviously if she does end up messaging me I'll try talking to her, but I have another question. The kid who threw this mansion party might have another one tomorrow, and she might be there.

If she is, and she doesn't reply to my message, I should leave her alone right? I'm assuming she isn't playing hard to get or anything, she was just being nice and I took it too far. I just want another opinion to make sure I'm not missing anything.
>>
Hey so a fucking update. I'm a dumbass, shes in my Snapchat contact list under "pending" which means I sent a snap long before she even noticed the notification. So now I look like a sperg.

She still opened it, is there anything to salvage this? Or do I let the ship sink.
>>
Ask for her number next time instead
Don't go looking her up

Unfortunately dude, motivation is a byproduct of doing. You usually can't just motivate yourself. How about, just get the fuck up, and go do it. And afterwards you'll realize it wasn't all too bad, and you'll want to keep up your momentum since you already started. Motivation.
>>
>>17263294
Motivation is useless.
You need discipline.
Do something and do it every day. Don't make it a choice. Just get up and do it.

i absolutely cannot survive the amount of memes that they literally talk about in real life.

or all the anime references they do. or how they are lol so randum.

they are prisoners to the owner of the tabletop store. they come in weekly and spend +50 on toys from their mothers allowance at 30 years old.

they are literally the physical manifestation of social rejects. id rather not befriend them for more than a boardgame or two.

Really decide if you want out, or if your just trying to survive. There is a difference you know, and as much as it may feel like you just want to die, you might just be looking for a desire to live.
Seems like you've started adventuring through life experiances though, so maybe it times to commit social suicide.
have you considered going on a walk about?

A friend of mine did some stuff over time that I, instead of confronting them about it, I repressed. That is until several months ago when they something that set me over the edge...

Long story short, I snapped and said some pretty nasty things. Our conversation got real heated real quick and we haven't talked since. I know that we both are prideful enough to take this to the grave, but I'm trying to work on that part of myself.

I think this apology would be a leap forward for changing who I am, but also would ease my conscience.

I'm planning on leaving a voicemail or just straight talking to them if they pick up. Little more personal that way.

So how would you all go about this? Are there things to avoid? Things to touch on? Should it be pretty short? Pretty long?

All advice is appreciated.

First of all, I don't know how severely this has impacted your friendship, but be prepared to apologise without the expectation of your friendship being repaired.

I would say that you should invite them out to talk about it over coffee, face to face interactions are better for this sort of thing. If they don't pick up, I wouldn't leave them the apology through voicemail. That's tacky desu.

Good on you for wanting to get over your pride, anon.
>>
>>17263141
>In person

I'm not even sure this person would pick up the phone if they saw I was the one calling. There are also a couple unfortunate details that complicate that narrative, but I think that a phone call/voice mail may be my most personal option.

Is it that bad? are there any other ways to go about this?
>>
>>17263141
Also, I have no intention of this person accepting me as a friend again. I just want to get this off my chest.

so where i work we ask people if they're gift card members. this really cute girl comes in during the morning, I ask her if she's a member, she says yes and tells me her name. it was a pretty busy day, and I forgot what her name was. towards the end of the day, I look at the past transactions throughout the day and write down the names of about 20 people that came in around the time I thought she came in so I can look her up on facebook. my female coworker catches me, and I make some shit up and tell her the manager asked me to write down the names of everyone I checked out prior to 1pm, and that I didn't know why.

how creepy is this? in hind-sight I probably shouldn't have done this. and I'm a little worried my coworker thinks im a serial killer.

The more I hear about my boyfriends past the more irritated and anxious I get. We've been together 10 months and so far I've learned he..

>fucked a bunch of whores in high school
>been in bands where he fucked groupies
>been part of a gangbang
>has had fwbs
>was hooking up with someone a month before we met
>once fucked someone's wife(claims he was immature and wouldn't do it again)

I was a virgin when I met him and had very little sexual experience. Whenever I hear something about his wild past I get anxiety and I don't know why. I am also disgusted by this and it makes me think less of him... it also makes me trust him less...why is this? Am I the one with the problem? How do I stop letting this bother me?

Also when we met he told me he was "not into hookups". Which was clearly a lie.
>>
Definitely something to watch out for, considering you said he was still on this streak a month before y'all met, so he doesn't really know being single.

Doesn't mean focus on it, though. Someone like you would also be perfect for someone who's exhausted their sexual drive.
>>
He lied to you, and doesn't respect his body and sex the way you do. You have a major difference in values and honesty.

Im a short 5'8, and I've met a wonderful person who happens to be an inch taller. I can tell she's interested but its so awkward for me and clearly she doesnt care. Is an inch really that big of a deal or is my inferiority complex in overdrive? Reassure me /adv/, I'm an alpha, I can own it.

It's not a big deal mate. I'm like 5'7 and have dated girls taller than me.
It's the short ones who make a fuss about the guy's height. The tall ones usually don't care all that much.

Taller girl is non-issue. Inch difference in hight is next to nothing. Relax and go for it.

Does being single too long fuck with your ability to have a relationship? I am approaching the five year mark since I properly dated somebody and I don't know if it's good, bad, or neutral.

For clarification, by single I mean rigidly, exclusively single. No sex, no one night stands. Went on two first dates this past spring, but other than that absolutely nothing substantial has happened to change this.

I'm in love with my best friend. No contact is almost impossible because she always wants to talk to me and tell me how important I am to her. I told her how I felt about three months ago and when I told her about NC she got mad and upset. I really don't know what to do. I feel like I'll never find anyone like her. Should I just NC without warning her? Stick around and just stay in love with her? Please, help. I'm such a pussy and I know it. Just, if anyone has suggestions or similar stories/experiences they can share that'd be great. Thank you.

Okay /adv/ so this is the situation, my ex girlfriend lied to me about being on the pill way back in 2014, we only fucked without a condom twice and she had a new boyfriend fairly quickly after I broke up with her, we were only together for a very short time (because she was fucking crazy and I realized this just after we fucked without a condom) fast forward a few months and I see she's pregnant, she never said anything to me, so I casually brushed it off, we were only together a really short time and I didn't even know at what stage the kid was in development in. However I saw a picture of her yesterday on Facebook with her kid and the kid kinda has similar features to me, same eye colour, nose, ears, even the fucking chin is similar to when I was a kid. Although it doesn't have either of our hair colour, which is making me think it could be the guy after. The kid looks around 10 months old, which would make sense given the time we fucked as well.

Again she's never contacted me or said that the kid is mine, I don't want to drop her a message after not speaking to her since we broke up nearly 2 years ago and say "hey weird question, is that kid mine?" but the girl is fucking insane and if that kid is mine, I'd kinda want him to have some chance in life by having at least one stable parent.

What should I do /adv/? Should I just ignore it and if she ever contacts me, we take it from there? Or should I drop her a message and find out what the fuck is up with this situation?
