TL;DR
>called the gf a bitch
>told her I thought and still think she deserves it
>she mad

I got in an argument with the gf 3 days ago, she said she was embarrassed of me in public when I talk about things she brings up (political). I have no culture, heritage, etc. so I really find my only identity in building knowledge and hobbies.

Hearing and seeing her embarrassed of who I am really got to me especially since I support her when she does some pretty embarrassing things in public.

Even after realizing what she had done, she said she wasn't sorry for it. She proceeded to bring up issues with me that don't fit or aren't true such as me not doing dishes? So I in anger called her a bitch.

We live together and today we talked after 2 days of silence. She calmly said she won't be able to be affectionate for a while because I called her a bitch. I told her I stand by what I said, this pissed her off and were silent again.

Should I feel any regret for calling her a bitch?

Two stubborn ass people in a relationship makes for a roller coaster ride. If you guys don't have the ability to communicate and compromise I don't see how you could live together. You shouldn't have in the first place lol
>>
On the one hand, yeah, name calling is childish and you clearly lost your temper and did it out of anger so, I think regret is appropriate and maybe apologizing. That kind of reaction is just not constructive.

On the other hand based on how your gf is handling this she very well may be a bitch. She is trying to punish you over this incident where it sounds like you were both a bit at fault and the most appropriate thing would be a mutual apology because you both said hurtful things and work it out and make up, etc.

But it seems like that's really not gonna happen because you're both being stubborn and there is no "bigger person" in this scenario.
>>
Neither of you are in the right because you both fucked up. Both of you need to admit that to compromise and move forward, but it looks like you're both stubborn as fuck and overly proud. Sorry OP.

Why is it hard to talk to new people and actually make them my friend? Also anyone want to help my conversation skills? I was thinking talking to a random person would help my conversation skills

Life is not a video game. You can't mash the button against a random person on the street and then become awesome at talking.

Want to make friends? Join activities with people and enjoy yourself. It's easier to talk when you are having fun and have things in common with the other person.

>I confess my love for her (again)
>she says she really really likes me so much but "not like this"
>emotionally destroyed
>want to forget her but we're leading a group in university so we constantly need to deal with each other, plus she keeps sending me messages and photos every 20 minutes

I am starting to think that I will never be able to stop feeling this awful feeling of deep love for her unless I cut contact completely. I JUST CAN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT IT DAM NIT. But cutting contact with her is nigh impossible considering our academic relations and responsibilities.

My god does anyone here know what to do

She does not want you.
Deal with it.
Cut off contact with her in every way you can that does not impede your progress in other areas of your life.
That means telling her to stop messaging you with photos every 20 minutes because even though you like her "you do not like her like that".
>>
>>18628656
This is a huge problem for me. I tried cutting contact completely twice.

It was extremely painful. I felt more pain than being rejected by her now. And she kept chasing me back. She really likes me but "not like that".

If I get things stale between us it'll also damage the group we're leading and I love this group, it's my biggest passion currently and it does wonders for me emotionally.

she just messaged me right now and we're talking about kittens holy shit help

Stop telling yourself things like "She is the love of my life". I bet you're barely out of your teens.

This is what you do:

1) Accept that it's gonna hurt, and be at peace with it. Accepting pain doesn't mean it stops hurting, it means you stop telling yourself that you shouldn't be in pain. it's gonna hurt, suck it up, get on with your life, and it'll fade eventually.

2) Stop making up fantasies in your head about "love of my life", and building this into more than it needs to be. You liked a girl, and she doesn't like you. That's the ultimate fact of this. You can meet other girls, and you'll most likely fall in love again. Your perspective is the most important thing in this.

3) Cease contact. Don't make a big deal of it. If she asks you just say "You know how I feel about you, I need space, can't say how long it's gonna be". Stop leading the group at uni, or at the very least, remove her from your life as much as possible.

Are white guys only attracted to black chicks if they look like "bad girls"? My state is mostly white people and I have never had much luck dating, but this weekend I went to a rock festival with my brother and he let me borrow his leather jacket because I wanted to fit in a little better (I don't have a lot of metal or rock clothes). Then suddenly I am fighting off guys with a stick the entire weekend and got a shit ton of numbers. Do I need to completely change my style if I wanna get a bf?

Music festivals are just filled with horny people in general. What do you normally look like? Race doesn't matter to me as much as attitude and personality like if your a business woman or professor compared to a hood rat or something. I like the aesthetics of people like Lady Leshurr.

You probably looked like a rocker. That separated you from the stereotypical black hip hop chick who is into drug dillers and thuuugs. So they felt like you were a darker version of them

So, I recently found out I won't be able to go to college. I'm going to leave my moms house and stay with my dad for a bit, but. I need advice on what to do once I get there.

>NEET until I can get into community college, take two years (or even one) then and transfer into a four year. I'll have to take the bus to get to the CC. And get a job, just to have some money and not feel like too much of a drain.

>Enlist in the military. Try to get into the airforce. Maybe use benefits to pay for school? I'm physically weak though, so I'd have to train for a month or. A few weeks.

>Suicide. I have a rope, and dad has plenty of painkillers for his back. This is a scary option, but if the first two don't work out due to my laziness, then I'll have to. I don't want to be a waste of space. I'm worried how mom will take it, but she seemed alright with my joining the military. So.

Thanks for reading.

Why are you not able to go to college?
To me #1 sounds pretty reasonable to me actually. Just make sure to actually get a job. It's also a nice opportunity to pick up a hobby and develop some - more or less useful - skills.

A small backstory, my dad is an asshole, but he raised me alone my entire life, I've had a lot of confrontations with him, and he's lost two houses and has now has abysmal credit, whereas I have flawless credit.

Cut to now, he wants to use my credit to get a $80,000 loan on a home, I had two loans making me ineligible to get a mortgage loan and he paid them off totaling around $17k

I'm going to have to get this loan in my name, all the responsibility and the deed to the property is going to be in his and my name.

Am I going to get fucked if I do this?

And how do I NOT do this considering he's already paid my debt off to make me eligible for the loan.

Why did he lose the other 2 homes ?
>>
>>18628344

Depression and medication causing him to not care about anything on the first, and he straight up lost that one completely.

The second because he's unemployed and refuses to look for work, that one we ended up doing a short sale on and he lost about $20k

As title suggest, what can I do to grow thicker skin in terms of my emotional or mental reaction to being insulted or made fun of or being embarrassed.

Im open minded and like discussion yet the mass amount of brain dead hypocrites, people unwilling to accept an alternative view, ad hominem users and etc. rustle my jimmies and often invoke a more sad and disappointed feeling in me, in the sense that people truly cannot come to be civilized in terms of discussing topics or result to abusing people based of views, whether it be social, political or whatever.

If possible I would like to be able to shut off my emotions and be emotionless in a sense with exception to feelings of pleasure, love, happiness etc.

Any advice?

>inb4 cry more snowflake
Call me what you wish, I'm not a "triggered snowflake" I just seek advice on how to get better in this field as I truly believe as time goes on, civil discussion will become obsolete as already in my life I'm yet to be able to talk with people who can discuss civilized and rationally without the need of ad hominems and outlandish behavior.

Really think out what your principles are. Cognisize it and say it aloud. Obviously you don't like it when you beta bitch out when people talk down at you so make it a principle that real men don't show weakness or something like that.

Right now your emotional response is tied to giving you negative feedback when you get in hostile conversations. You need to rewire it so you get a bigger negative feedback when you act like a little faggy cuck whenever someone yells at you or whatever.

Really give yourself shit about it whenever your emotional knee jerk reaction doesn't align with your principles. Trample all over yourself, distress your psyche.

Eventually the part of your brain that avoids negative emotions will recalibrate to avoid breaking your principles instead of making your fear aggressive conversation.
>>
Thick skin doesn't exist. You just need to be more desensitized. Stick around 4chan a bit more and make some posts about topics you know nothing about so people can call you out on being retarded.

Also, kys.

For me it worked when i started to try step back and try not to say anything, just keeping my mouth shut when i get angry over something.
It worked wonders when after a while i got this realy nice self-control.

I also stoped getting anoyed by stupid insignificant stuff, while realy keeping my head cool on bigger problems.

Also when i argue with someone i cant tell you how much you can piss someone off when you are not giving a flying fuck about what they say,especialy when you wait while they scream their head off and you still respond in calm voice what you think.
Derails them hard.

Also when i see something im anoyed, i just move along.Aint nobody has time fo dat.

Im not perfect but i think i achieved a little bit of that thick skin in that mind-selfcontrol i tryed out myself. Its all in your head and your thoughts realy.

Hope it helps.

I have no aptitude or really any skill in any of my interests. I'm bad at everything that matters to me, bad to the point where I give up and feel like shit for weeks on end.

I want to reduce my freetime life into as minimalist as possible. I feel content with the idea to get home from work, eat something, then just lie down and chill with some music or whatever until I fall asleep and then back to work. Since I have zero ability in doing anything that matters, I'm just wasting my own- and everyone else's time by really doing anything at all.

How do I gain my friends back?

I was extremely lonely, and bored, and nobody was responding to my threads here, so I went over to Reddit and found a subreddit called MakeNewFriendsHere. I contacted a bunch of people, some of them responded, some of them did not, and out of the ones who did respond, a few were only into casual conversation like "how is the weather", but a few were into some really esoteric, deep shit and I kept on talking to them. One of them gave me her Facebook, so I added her, we talked for a bit, it was really nice not to be isolated. She then stopped responding for whatever reason.

This one Dutch guy was mildly interesting at first, and then our conversations derailed into useless "how are you today" talks, and eventually it stopped altogether. This other guy was talking about anime non stop, and eventually we stopped talking. This one girl was pretty interesting, she talked about all sorts of stuff, and we were having such a nice conversation.

Then the Unite the Right rally happened, and the SJWs at Reddit started flipping shit, upvoting like 50-60 posts to the front page about how evil Nazis are withing the past 3 days, and I lost my shit so I started going full fascist and just calling journalists cockroaches in the comments section, telling people that I hope Trump does stuff to them, and started posted pro-Trump messages everywhere, and then I also used a bunch of racial slurs and just let myself loose, because I was so sick of the SJW posts.

Now, she won't respond to me, and I feel like I she saw my comment history. How do I change this? I tried telling her that I was just trolling, but still no response, and she was active, since she posted elsewhere in her comment history.

I'm so sorry guys for fucking this up. I was just so lonely, and eventually I wanted to make people feel the pain, I am going through some really disgusting shit right now, I just couldn't help but overreact to the overreaction of the SJWs. So sorry, please help.

What's done is done mate. Beyond apologizing there's not much else you can do. They have the right to refuse giving you another chance.

Why don't you try some meet ups that are not online?

My friend. What you need is to get rid of your internet, tv, and video games. Join physical activities with other people and read books that interest you. Hopefully this helps you. At least try to cut down the time you spent on internet, watching tv, or video games.

Is it wrong of me to want my girlfriend to not strip? She's done it before and that doesn't bother me, but I don't want her doing that kind of work now that we are together (she currently has a different job, I'm not trying to get her to quit)although it is great income. What say you, /adv/?

Dated a stripper at a high end club and she quit on her own when we got serious but nearly 2 years in she went back. I bailed. We didn't argue or anything about it but she confessed she missed the attention more than the money and wanted to keep stripping as long as she was young and still looked great.

Feel for you OP but this is a no win situation for you and don't fall for the money excuse. If she was single or just dating or had a kid and needed to keep the kid fed money is a great incentive but after leaving and making it and getting comfortable in a relationship and wanting to return to the life, there is more to it.
>>
>>18627994
Why was her stripping enough for you to leave her?
>>
>>18628766
It was the life style as much as anything and that includes regular customers she will cultivate, some of them she will become close with and that includes them actually believing there is a courtship happening. This courtship is encouraged as part of a hustle.

Very few of the girls and women can keep the hustler mindset separate from their everyday life. Any woman can take off their clothes but those that do well, and my gf did very well, they hustle guys for those tips and frequent gifts.

The other thing is the line blurs between stripping, simulated sex and sex for money. I recall when we first started dating she discussed with me if I thought giving a guy head for a tip was prostitution since she was already nude in front of him and riding him and simulating sex. She was serious and didn't think it was and neither did many of the other girls. She also told me it didn't start like that and she was scared and embarrassed but gradually more things were permitted. I recall a time I went inside the club before she quit to pick her up. I had no problem with what she was doing and wasn't jealous but she was on stage, the place had very few people in there but two young guys sitting near the stage talking more to themselves than looking at her. She squatted down right in front of them and they still didn't look at her pussy less than a foot away and she grabbed both their heads and turned them to stare at her open crotch. I wasn't upset because it wasn't even sexual and it wouldn't have mattered who the guys were they just weren't paying her any attention. Another time it was Superbowl week and the place was packed to overflowing every night and she made a fortune and the parking lot too full so she asked me to pick her up. I waited as she finished a dance for a guy and asked if I could wait since another guy wanted 3 dances but first she needed to go clean off her ass since the last guy had cum on her.

So assuming it is cleaned properly in EU, what's up with the pipe that it goes trough in my house? The pipes were built ages ago there has to be bunch of shits in there, how can people drink tap water when the pipes are built years ago and there is no way to clean them?
13 posts and 2 images submitted.

I think it's because it's running water, not stagnant that you can drink from it. Also it's been thoroughly cleaned to the point it's probably cleaner than some river water. I mean, just pour some in the glass. It's crystal clear. Of course, if you let it sit you'll see the iron start to settle.
>>
>>18627877
If you are paranoid, simply pay a specialist to analyze your water from your own tap.

It isnt even that expensive. That said, in most 1st world countries tap water is ok (except usa with fluoride). And even then, the source of water is different from town to town. So either write your location or have a little faith in your goverment. I mean, citizens cant pay taxes or go to vote when they are dead / ill.

>>18627882
And as long as the water is fresh, it should be good to go no matter how old pipes are. (Unless the pipes are made from lead, that will slowly kill you in a very gruesome way). So when taking sip, let the water run for a few seconds so the still water will end up in your drain, not your glass. Also what is chlorine? It dezinfects your water from most of microbes.
>>
>>18627877
Depends on where the water comes from. Where I live we have the best water but all other places I go tap tastes like shit. If you drink tap in china ull even get sick for a week.
