This is a fun one, but a bit of background is needed. I'm not in desperate need of advice, but I'd love some creativity from another perspective.

>be 19yo social retard
>meet cute girl
>never been so in love with someone
>FFW 8 months
>check my Facebook
>she texted me that "she got bored of me"
>"it's over"
>ok

Needless to say, it was pretty painful and I felt furious and depressed for a very long time. She never texted me after that and we haven't seen eachother since that moment.

>I'm 22yo atm
>I'm in a good position in life
>I've become a sociable person and right now I'm making an insane amount of money for a college student
>we're looking for new, pretty, sociable people to expand the company I work for
>share job advertisement on Facebook
>my ex sends me that she's genuinely interested in the job
>"I hope you don't think this is weird"
>no, not at all /sarcasm

Of course, I can't refuse a potential candidate for the job. I invited her for a "meet&greet", which basically means she has to do a couple of tests in order to be selected. The test involves performing a random scenario for a pretty big audience, with very little information. If you manage to make the audience like you, you got the job (at least for a trial period).

I, of course, have a bit of influence in what will happen during the event. What would you do if you were in my position? I don't care how perverted or twisted it is. What would you do? I know for a fact she desperately needs a job.

Be an adult. If she's genuinely good at what she does, hire her. If she isn't, don't give her a pity job.

Would be as impartial as I could.

>>17182615
Give her the job if she's a good candidate. If you're planning to get back with her you might actually have a chance now that you changed.

How do I make my crush leave his girlfriend and date me instead ?
They are both 10 years older than me and I know him from work (but we don't work for the same company). He has already shown clear interest in me but I think he's too faithful to his girlfriend to do anything.

Please be constructive and not judgemental. I'm so obsessed with him I just can't stand the thought of nothing happening.

Top kek, even if he did leave her for you, he'd dump you within a month when he realised how annoying you are
>>
It really tickles me when I see things like this.

Why would you want someone that would leave a healthy relationship, and for what?

You see, you're mind is so clouded that you don't see that if he had this mentality, he would do the exact same thing to you, or do you think you're special and can keep him?

The guy you want would hop from girl to girl after he is bored with them.

Observe and respect the loyal man in front of you, maybe you'll be lucky and snag a single one down the line.

Recently aquired two tabs of 1P-LSD from an acquaintance (have casually known him for two month).
According to my research it should be very similar to 'real' LSD in terms of subjective effect.

I have never done chemical compounds (incl. LSD) before, only naturals: weed, shrooms, etc. Always very careful about set and setting, never had bad trip.

Have been told to always test compounds before consumption. At the same time I have also read that ones with the IUPAC name and abbreviation are safe.
Pic related.

>Do i need to test? If so how, as it isn't real LSD?
>Sitter needed?
>People say one shouldn't touch LSD with bare hands. True?
>Tips?
>Experiences? (Vs. LSD?)

eat it. Your drug dealer isn't going to poison you, that's a retarded meme. These RCs coming out of labs are more pure than street shit anyway, since they're using legit labs with legit chemists. Don't be dense.
>Sitter needed?
no. If you've done shrooms and were fine, you'll be fine on acid. faggot pussy.
>Don't touch LSD
If it's already absorbed/dried on the paper, you'll be fine. Keep it in a dark, cool, dry place so it'll last longer. the fact you're exposing it to light tells me you're a faggot who doesn't know how to do drugs.
>tips?
take it all and stop being a faggot.

I've unwittingly taken RC psys before, tripped for days, and am fine. stop being a pussy

going to a high school leavers party, will be fun, except I have no friends or any connections whatsoever with anyone in my school because of reasons.

how do I get into the flow of the party without having to gain people's respect or acknowledgment by talking and knowing to them

this isn't a prom btw, its a party with weed + alcohol

Get wasted, but not too hard and go chat to people. Remember to be positive/happy/whatever (i dont know how exactly to say this, non-native english speaker). Works for me 90% of the time.
>>
If you drink, then drink your ass off and have fun. If you don't normally drink then don't drink a lot just drink as a social thing. If you don't normally drink don't get to drunk and make a fool of yourself by doing something stupid or end up getting sick. And if you smoke then smoke. If not. Then don't. BE YOURSELF! And make small talk with LOTS of people not just a few. Somebody is bound to want to keep talking. But congratulations and Graduating!
>>
were just on such a party last friday. First i sat quite for some time, but after the night progresses you get more intoxicated and then everything will feel more natural. tl;dr just drink with the flow

Found out GF had an "ex" who abused her and forced her into a relationship, while beating her and cheating on her, before they were even 18.

His family is very rich and has political influence, to the point where they can bail him out of trouble- when he beat her up and she went to the police, the case simply went nowhere, and similarly, when he beat a guy up at school with a chair, his dad talked to the principal and the whole deal was forgotten.

Eventually she blocked him and they went to different unis, but recently, he has began contacting her saying happy birthday, merry christmas etc, and even tried to hack her social media accounts

Literally what is a way to fight against this? I do not that crazy cunt to see me as competition and threaten me or my family. What can be done? Create a media outrage about his elite family so that their reputation crashes? Or report him to the anti-rape / abuse centre of his university?

Some states have strict cyber bullying/stalking laws these days and their police department websites have forms and information on what to do, what types of things to save for evidence, etc. Recommend looking into that first. From your post it seems you're very angry and looking for revenge, I would refrain from that and make sure everything you do is legal, especially since it seems he has power and influence.

you cannot undo what your gf chose to do in the past. she stayed with him and if she wanted to punish him only she can. I understand your fear though. She may go back to him.
>>
>>17182435
Are you retarded

That is not at all what I mean

She was forced into the relationship. He could hurt her family if she chose not to. He is a maniac.

I am not afraid of her choosing to "go back to him". He is hardly an ex. I am afraid of him stalking us and trying to hurt us!

>>17182432
He can bribe the police, it has happened before. I'm going to do everything I can to avoid him but it is only a matter of time until he finds out about me.

Help on how to stay awake?

I've been a good boy and gone to bed at 11pm (almost) every day for most of my life. now i'm out of school and I managed to get a job working night shifts, and I'm desperately trying to stay awake late so I can get used to it before I start.
it's hard. nothing interests me when i'm tired. yesterday I fell asleep at 1am, and now it's 10pm and i already wish i was asleep.

go tothe store and buy a 'starbucks energy drink'. i usually get mocha.

lay out a couple of movies or even better, a tv show that you've been wanting to watch.

you should have two shows. one erally serious and focus worthy. another more comedy and light that you've seen before, and can listen to while doing other stuff.

you keep your lights on, and you sit in a computer chair. you watch the serious show and/or play the serious game until you are way too exhausted.

then you put on the funny show in the background mostly to listen to. and you also turn on a lighter more fun game. enable cheats for unlimited lives if you have to. play that.

also helps to have a friend stay up with you if you can.

dont lay in bed its a trap.

caffeine doesn't really do anything for me, i've been drinking coffee since i was a kid

also... my bed is so waaaaarm....
>>
>>17182345

do it anyways. better than nothing. also consider mixing coffee with soda, thts what i see em do in nightmare on elm street.

a starbucks energy shot is way more extreme than a cup of coffee. also invest in 5 hour energy if you must. load up and experiment.

>also my bed is so waaarm

so? you asked for advice not cheatcodes.

What should I do about my acne? I'm 20 and tired of it. Will I be able to get accutane?

>will i be able to get accutane

depends on your insurance but generally yeah.

Acne isnt as simple as parents made it out to be. if its only in one location its usually caused by a specific problem (for example (thisi s wrong but for example) acne on the nose would be a dairy issue). I had acne on my chin only, and thats a hormonal issue. however i cannot fix that as a dude (whereas women could just take birth control etc).

there are two approaches that worked well for me. the first is how i went from pic related to second pic related.

>tretinoin in the morning
>salicylic acne wash in the shower
>moisturizer after / as needed
>erythromicin at night

tretinoin is prescription but you can order online as well. you rub it on to your skin and it peels it fast, causing your acne to fall right off. thats.

salicylic acne wash is basic acne wash you can get at most any store. i get mine at rite aid.

moisturizer stops your face from drying itself out, which prevents your skin from getting damaged and/or over producing oils which makes more acne.

erythromicin topical gel is an antio biotic used to treat acne, however instead of applying it your stomach, you apply it to your face before bed. it attacks the bacteria right on your face, killing acne before it starts.

I used all 4 together and it wokred pretty well, but it was annoying. way too much of my day was dedicated to treating my acne, not eating foods, trying to find ways to scratch an itch without touching myface. if i was making out with a girl and she happened to rub her fingers across my face, you can bet your savings that id have acne on the part of my chin she touched.

i got so frustrated i went ahead and started taking accutane. i was nervous but within the first month i had no acne. i had to quit one week into the third month (of 5 months) but my acne still hasnt returned and for that im grateful. i can sleep face down, scratch my chin, eat whatever i want. its awesome.

>>17182307
You should have already been seeing a dermatologist if acne had been a problem from your teens. There are oral and topical medications that can help. On top of that, experiment with changes in your diet, facial cleansing regimen, change your sheets and pillowcase regularly, cut your hair, change your shampoo regimen, stop touching your face.

Yeah well I already pulled those "natural acne healing methodes" for 1.5 years now. Got better, but isn't fully gone and I want it gone. Can't do this torturous regiment anymore no normal human would put up with anyways.

Finally broke up with my SO of fourish years on and off. How do I stop falling immediately in love with people with whom I'm going on dates? I've been single a total of... 6 months in the last 6 years. And before that I was underage and a huge sex-less lameo. Should I even be concerned that I'm already falling in love with someone new? Or should I tell my friends to fuck off and let me proceed at whatever pace I want...

fuck your mates, you do whatever the fuck you want. the wholepoint in going on dates is to find someone you like, and part of being a good person is acknowledging and accepting when they don't like you the same way.

Just keep doing what you're doing and don't be a little bitch about it.

>you're going on dates

you're already 30 years ahead of all the whuny virgins on /b/ for example so be proud and fuck loud.

Regardless of how much my ego tries to fight it, It seems obvious to me now that Free Will does not really exist.

Many of the greatest scientists and philosophers are either determinists or compatabilists, compatabilism being the idea that free will and determinism are compatible.

We are free in the sense that there's no restraint on our decision making, but our will is pre-determined based on genetics and past experiences which will formulate our decisions in all circumstances.

We have no control over any of our actions. We simply have the illusion of control.

Everything that drives us to make decisions is determined meaning our actions are already determined.

It's kind of been bugging me.

How do I accept this move on? I know that the self doesn't exist and I can't personally decide to accept this, and the only thing that will grant me acceptance is enlightenment and something to set my mind at ease.

>>17182064
dont think about it. me and my ex used to talk about this. its depressing to think about but the key is to pretend that free will does exist.

I used to. It is fucking retarded. You don't have a hard time socializing because you're so smart. You have a hard time socializing because tough can't sell yourself. Being smart is a positive thing that people like and admire. Just use your intelligence to be creative and do something fun.

What should I do. I mean I feel bad that hes in that state and want to help. But I already broke off our friendship and said I wouldnt support him anymore. And even if I did go see him Im not sure what I would say since we went our separate ways. Like I have a strong memory of my childhood friend and Id jump at the chance to help, but I know that my childhood friend is just a memory.
