Maybe making assumptions but it sounds like she was raped
>>
>>17253957

I'm partially the same as your gf. I feel for her.
Let me show you examples :

> " I love you, I cannot tell you how much I love you, and I'm seeing those scars. I mean I understand that if you don't talk about it, then I will never push you to do it. I just wanted you to know that I will always be here and that if someday you need to open your heart to someone, I will be here for you, as long as it takes."

Watch out, if this is really important she might get on the defensive, don't answer back, just say that you're sorry, and that you will never bring that subject again if she doesn't want to.

In the end, you don't need to know if she doesn't want to, maybe after years and years, in a drunk night she will tell you about it. Maybe not, never push her, you have the right to bring the subject once as the caring bf you are and you can't ever pressure her to talk about it, some people can leave you for that shit.

Also, remind her how beautiful she are, how you love her and how you will make her forget every bad memories. From your description, she's sad little woman who fought her own destiny to get money, studies, got out of her shit-hole of a family. If you're 100% confident she's self-concious about it, make her forget that pain.

You wanted to ask about her scars, I'm warning you about her, don't mess this up man. You've got yourself fragile but magnificent girl there.

>>17253962
Yup that might be it, but it can only stay as a hidden assumption. Break her privacy and she will feel attacked in the deepest scar, her psyché.

Doesn't really matter as long as it's easy to remember, not too weird, well structured. I can advise you on the form of the username, not the content.

Example :

> if you know pun with animals, always works
> foreign words
> avoid weird characters : x / digits (unless with a certain meaning)

I'm so tired of being sad
I'm in my mid-20s and since I was a very young teen in middle school I have been depressed. Not a week has gone by in the past decade where I haven't thought about suicide. Been to a thousand doctors and tried different medicines. Made a few attempts and fucked up my kidneys permanently from too many sleeping pills.

Just grinding through life missing out on things. I hardly even react to my own sadness anymore, every time I cross a bridge I visualize jumping to my death and the thought doesn't even phase me anymore it's like I expect this normalized reaction from myself. Sometimes I'm too sad to do anything but drink and don't even eat, just alcohol.

And I'm so sick of it. I've reinvented myself, moved away, moved up in the workplace, new clothes, lost weight, everything. But I can't stop wanting to die.

I hate this.

Your brain is hell-bent on destroying itself. You have to break the cycle.

I don't know if that would help, but here is my a short version of my story. I had simillar problem, sadness, numbness, suicide thoughts almost every minute.

My first memories are filled with feeling misplacement, sadness, strangness. My first suicide thought and "attempt" was when I was six years old, when I crawled under my desk with a knife and tried to slice my neck, thankfully (?) got scared of pain and blood. I just felt like such a disapointment and waste of time/space despite being one of the best students in school and having many acomplishments. All those feelings lingered through my whole life I managed to get to best schools and get decent studies but it was only when I was 24 I realized what it was because. I was never loved.

Now my parents on the surface are decent folk but in family interactions they are toxic, narcistic motherfuckers that only saw their children as their property and pillows to cry on. They told me regulary that they "love me" but noone ever cared for me. Everything I know I had to teach myself. Everything from the most basic things. Only thing that they suplied was money but I always felt ashamed to take it because they were always fighting for it. They were always critical.

Now comes my worst problem/decision. I assumed it was norm. I didn't rebel. I was good kid. They absolutely "love" the way I act. I was good son, who always helped them and never gave problems. I just internalized all the problems, feeling of being unloved, unlovable even (feelings that I didn't understand), hate, rage. Nobody ever taught me anything about life, nobody ever helped me in normal problems of growing up and I felt too ashamed of myself to even reach out to other people (I guess it is subconcious realization that if my own family doesn't help me I must not deserve help of other people) and didn't want to shame my family (which always was first thing they would say to me).

It all changed first time I ALLOWED myself to feel loved.

Tell me please anyone who is familiar with this concept, is this bullshit or not. Because to be honest, I can't really believe in these "success stories". I've recenty read this book about porn by Gary Wilson. Seriously, how is this book supposed to be "scientific research", it's like 90% of its content consists of reddit posts. And almost EVERY post out there and on NoFap.com forum is quite the same: "blah blah, I was a hikki/basement dweller/hermit, virgin (or had girlfriend - not really my case) had no friends, did 100 days - and now I have made few friends, I meet girls and feel great".

Now I admit I do have a strong porn addiction. I waste a lot of time thanks to this, and I also admit it would be great if I'll manage to overcome it some day. Yet I can't force myself to believe this bullshit success stories. I mean for instance, if you don't have enough social skills to even introduce yourself properly, how the hell stopping jerking off would help to gain some?

Can someone convince me that I'm wrong and still should try rebooting?

when you masturbate, what do you think of yourself?
is what you're doing really okay for you?
once you have your answer you know what to do
>>
nofap only works because it takes away the reward for doing nothing

you're basically trying to trick your body into realizing that the current behavior you're having is no longer giving you the positive results.

the same could arguably be achieved by cutting out junk food entirely

it isn't some magic thing that boosts your other senses and personality, you're just reconditioning yourself. it isn't going to fix any real internal problems.

sometimes i get really turned on thinking about being collared and trained to perform for my bf sexually however he wants. it's really hot and maybe my #1 fantasy. first step is to find a boyfriend, but when i get started on this part i quickly lose interest and decide i don't have time for boys and they're all shitty anyway. doesn't seem to help that none of them live up to my expectations i guess.

Help me understand women, /adv/.

Why do they completely lack self-confidence?

I'm doing some work over the summer to pay for uni, and one of the women at the place I'm working is a nervous wreck when other people are around. Every time I'm around, she starts talking to herself (not serial killer "talking to herself", mostly just verbally going over what she's working on at the time, like she's nervous), fidgeting, shuffling through papers, etc. She doesn't do it when she's alone; only when someone's there.

Also, when I walk by in the morning, her eyes go all wide and she blurts out "ohhianonhowisyourdaygoing?" in the fastest, quietest voice I've ever heard before scurrying away to her office like she's afraid I'll attack her. I'm not a nig nog, so I've got no clue why someone would be that afraid of me.

And then there's the fact that she's apparently terrified of going anywhere alone. When one of the people in the office had a birthday and brought in a cake, she asked me if I wanted to go with her to get some, like she was afraid she'd get raped by our company's token black employee or something if she went alone. And when I said I was busy with work she said "oh -- maybe later then" like there was some physical barrier preventing her from getting her own damn cake.

Do women just completely lack agency? Is self-confidence a completely foreign concept to them? How the fuck do I get inside their heads and figure out how they work?

Pic unrelated.

So I've always done open relationships because my last few solid ones weren't solid due to lack of honesty and communication. So I said fuck it open relationship. Then what seems to be out of nowhere I meet this girl and everything's great. She's been so open and honest so far and out connection is amazing. Then today she says that there's someone she likes and she doesn't know how to feel. Mind you we have been dating for awhile and she declared that she wanted to stay exclusive (Mono). Guess not. Idk what to do Because if I stayed in an open relationship it wouldn't have bothered me. But she hooked me and now I just feel even more dead than I've felt before, except now there's a girl that I love and who constantly tells me she loves me But is thinking of someone else. Mean while I'm very picky with my companions because I don't trust anybody. This is my first time in advice 4chan lets see how badly you can disapoint me.

It seems that open relationships were never your thing but just a way to avoid danger of heart break. Tell this girl how you feel and go from there, heart break is worth it rather then being cucked. Just my opinion.

Never a good idea to willingly get cucked.

>>17253339
Your first mistake was willingly becoming a cuck. You should tell her how you feel or suffer the consequences, either way you should probably break it off since she lied.

Hi /adv/

Last summer, I moved into an apartment complex in Middle America. The neighborhood was great. However, everything has gone down the shitter since then. Syrian refugees started moving into my apartment complex. The grocery store has stopped selling pork and is full of Muslims. The fitness center at my complex now has women only hours for females. They stop and pray facing in a certain direction in public. Several businesses have opened catering to Muslims with signs in Arabic. Now they're building a mosque.

This is not what I had in mind for a neighborhood. I'm fed up. It's like a 3rd World Hellhole in America. I didn't expect Muslims to be living here. Worse, I have already signed a lease for next year. I can't break a lease cause no one wants to sublet since Muslims are everywhere. Someone keeps taking my Trump sign. I can't date any of the Muslim women cause they all have white bfs or gfs. I feel like a beta cuck.

What can I do here? Non-violent and legal suggestions here.

>First off, you're a racist sack of shit.

I am not a racist. I'm addressing the issues in my neighborhood. Also I believe it's ok to stay racist stuff in America. I don't believe we need to be holding stuff back any longer. We shouldn't be nice to people we don't like anymore. It's protected speech.

>Just break your lease and move out if you can't deal with them. Fuck.

Here's the problem. This is the only place I can afford with my salary. Rent prices went up 20% in my city this year. 20%. This is probably due to the Muslims refugees moving in thereby creating a housing shortage.

hey guys i need some financial advice.

im currently trying to buy a used sports car and am asking a credit union for a loan of 7k, which covers the dealership cost. but as a car on a loan, i am required to have full coverage. my quote for that was 350 a month, and the 7k loan on a 6 year payment plan was around 100 a month give or take. i can afford it, but by the end of 6 years the total amount that car would have cost me is around 30k with full coverage insurance. is there a way around this or anything?

the reason my ins is so high is because im only 19, been driving for 4 years with a clean record but i dont think that matters

It is a fun hobby and very rewarding.

Just personally never understood buy a car like that just to drive.

Buy the car outright

Get a three year loan and pay $200 a month on the car. Once that's paid off, go to minimum coverage.

No but seriously if it is bothering you enough, find a coping mechanism. I too suffer from a similar problem.
