You're right. I meant that I'm not a blubbering retard when someone doesn't like me.

Sometimes someone flames me in a video game and the encounter just lingers in my mind hours afterwards. I understand that I probably did horribly that match, but the words seem to stick and I eventually lose the will to keep playing.

How do I shrug this shit off? I know its just some random on the internet, but I just take it so personal because I let them down.

I cant stand being lonely anymore

I never had a girlfriend. I have success in working life, but it really makes me very sad.

I cant stand it anymore.


It does not make sense to live without love, it does not! I dont deserve this. No one deserves to live without love.

My fifteen year old brother brought girls home and I never brought them.

I want to make it clear that I'm not fat and not very ugly. I mean, honestly, I cant take it anymore.

I am a newly formed economist. I am twenty four years old.

Earned reasonably well. I am satisfied with everything I have built in life.
But this is my great fault. It's no use having money and not having someone on the side, a love, a relationship.

So what exactly do you need advice on?

Are you just here to whine about being lonely? Because that's not going to do you any good.

If you want companionship then start seeking it out. If you're not likeable enough to make some friends and talk to women, then work on that.

How do I stop playing video games? I think it's a manchild hobby, but I honestly really enjoy then.

>will go long periods not playing them, especially when I was in school or working
>would play one night and it'll just explode into playing for hours a night
>last night instead of applying for jobs, just played video games

I'm 23. I do work full-time but pay is horrible. Been applying to about 10+ jobs a week since late June, but I've been so discouraged that I just want to give up and play video games for my 3 hours of free time a day

Video games are no different from mindlessly browsing 4Chan, spending time on Facebook, or watching porn. You have to think about why you're reaching for the video games and solve that. Gaming itself isn't the issue.

In my case, when I binge on video games it's always to avoid something that I know is mentally monotonous or will likely result in failure and personal challenges.

So I've been seeing a hooker for the past 2 months. We have a lot in common, and talk about vidya and anime. We cuddle and shit, have decent chemistry, and we like each other. She lives in a hotel. She still makes me pay whenever I use her because obviously she needs to make money

I live in a 1 bedroom apartment by myself. Is it a bad idea to ask her if she wants to live with me rent free in exchange for occasional sex?

I don't know how we would arrange the whole her seeing clients thing because that definitely would not be happening in my apt

Advice on negotiating salary?

I have an offer to work at a new company. It's about a 30% pay rise for me, and will put me on £45k. I'm not exactly sure of which role it is yet (waiting for the email/letter with the full details), but it could be that they will pay up to £50k (or could be just £46.5k).

How best to approach salary negotiation?

Aim 35-40% higher than what you expect. Haggle down to a reasonable salary.

1) An older pic is needed for reference.
2) If you are balding just shave it. It's better to die than to fade out.

>>18626102
I'm not OP but they purposefully overcharge for books to make extra money....

They will make "updates" to old textbooks that contain useless new information, then REQUIRE students to buy the latest versions which cost like $200

It's a scam

>>18626102
It's $300, I don't have that kind of money just laying around.

Why are non-white girls easier to date than white women?

At least, for me, that seems to be the case. I'm white, and I'm having trouble remembering any time I dated a girl who wasn't ethnic. The only one I remember was a Jewish girl with social anxiety.

And it's never deliberate. It just seems like the only time a girl is actually nice and approachable is if she isn't white. What the fuck.

It is much more likely that you have an issue with a group of people than that an entire group of people have an issue with you specifically.

So - try to think if you have prejudices towards white girls (it seems like you do) and if they impact the way you interact with them.

Ever since I got sexually assaulted 2 years ago men and masculinity have become gross to me. I'm just disgusted by sex and the bodies of men

I can be watching a movie or something and as soon as something romantic or sexual comes on, even kissing, I will involuntarily make gagging noises and squirm, like a kid grossed out by adult things

I want to be able to watch love in movies and real life without feeling like I'm going to vomit

Oh, if I smell a certain brand of laundry detergent (the same as the guy who assaulted me) I always feel like I'm going to throw up

Advice? Please don't say therapy because that hasn't been able to fix this

Therapy. If your therapist sucked, get a different one. There is no other way. We had a thread the other day about a guy and hos girlfriend who had been whored out by her mother when she was young. Two people with experience in being abused chimed in and said therapy was what really helped them along.l to accept what happened and move on.
>>
>>18625986
This anon is right. Therapy isn't some sort of magical deus ex machina, it is another person helping you face things, helping you with another perspective, helping you keep inspired to struggle with yourself. Even disregarding the fact that different therapists use different tactics and prefer different theoretical frameworks, the trust/understanding and click between the two of you makes or breaks everything.

Also look into EMDR therapy. It's really simple and strangely effective for PTSD. Best of luck.

I'd be okay staying that way, personally.

I think I'm getting a throat infection. It's still early.

anything I can do to combat it? or any 'sneaky' ways to get azythromicin? i live in los angeles if that helps.

I was recently cut off from my parents (and by extension their insurance) and havent been approved for medi-cal yet.,

Get more sleep. Drink more water. When your body is stressed it's more susceptible to infection.
>>
>>18626025

i literally cannot get more sleep until thursday through to some extreme work that cannot be delayed, as the actor is in town til the 17th.

sleep is not enough to just cure an infection anyways, I'm looking for something that can kill the bacteria, not soothe or alleviate pain. next week im already flying out to visit my neices and nephews and would like to /not/ infect them
>>
>>18625878
If it starts to hurt, gargle salt water. The salt draws out moisture in your throat. It helps.

So heres the basic gestalt. In a few weeks I'm gonna be starting a college type of thing. I'm really looking forward to it because I'll be able to meet loads of people and I just feel like its something to look forward to. This summer has just been shit for me almost the entire time. My friends pretty much gave up on me and stopped contacting me and a load of other stuff happened, and I decided to just sit tight until college and I'll make new friends and it will all be great.
Here's the problem. In about a week and a half I'll be getting some pretty big exam results and I'm anxious as fuck. I think I have done ok but I could be wrong and the fact that the day is coming up so soon just pisses me right off and basically means I can't look forward to college because these results are coming up before I begin it.

Tl.dr - How do you look forward to a good thing when there is a shitty thing coming up before it?

In my experience depression about high school and university results are very prevaliant and a very common reason for depression. However, its easily cured by recieieving the results. Dont kill yourself until you see whats up. You'll be fine. Try getting drunk in the meantime, works for me.

>>18625755

By dealing with the thing first. And until that thing happens, not worrying.
>>
>>18625766
Yeah, I get anxious about pretty much everything and usually everything turns out better than I expected. I guess I'll just have to grit my teeth for a little while. The results themselves are not incredibly important since the college entry requirements are low but its just my family who always expect me to do ridiculously well.

My chinese girl roommate gave me tea as a gift. She's cute, and I want to reciprocate the gift appropriately. I am not familiar with chinese customs, and I don't know if she was being flirty or friendly. Does she want to be more than friends, and what should I get her in return?

*Also I am moving out in less than 2 weeks so we will not be living with each other.

If she's fresh off the boat Chinese, gift giving is a pretty standard practice. The typical gifts are usually liquor, cigarettes or tea. Inconvenient that she got you tea since girls usually don't need liquor or cigarettes. I would say get her some baked goods, pastries etc.

As for more than friends. Like mentioned, gift giving means nothing more than politeness for fresh off the boat. While it doesn't mean she likes you that way, it doesn't not mean it either. Only way to find out is to ask her.
>>
>>18625633
She definitely isn't fresh off the boat, I heard her listening to fallout boy like 10 minutes ago. Her accent is pretty good, but I can tell she isn't native either. I thought about getting her cookies or something, but baked goods is a really good idea since it is more sophisticated.
