Gonna buy a laptop. There are 2 last options for my budget, they have the same specs. One is a HP and the other is Lenovo.

Considering both have the same specs, which one do you think would work better and cause less problems?

I'd personally go for Lenovo, but that's because brand loyalty

I think you should go with Lenovo, I haven't had any good experience buying a HP computer desu

So last week my girlfriend broke up with me. I've been taking it well but sometimes I get waves of sadness. We ended on good terms and we are willing to be friends but just not right now. But this saturday I am catching up with one of her friends. Is this a good idea?

I graduated high school in 2010. It's been 6 years and I'm only just now starting college and having a weird panic over it, realizing it'll be the start of the next decade when I actually graduate.

Has anyone else here gone to college after several gap years of shitty mcjobs and NEETdom? Advice?

Professor writing here.

College isn't just for 18 year olds any more. More and more people are doing what you're doing - realizing they weren't ready for univerdity at 18 but now ready. In many universities 25-50% of undergraduates are your age or older.

So you won't be unique or even anything unusual. And my experience is that older students are always the best, just because they're more focused and motivated.

>>17157093
27 here and another year until I graduate.

My entire group for projects are all non-traditional students, as well.

I have been with this girl for almost three years.

She is my first (and well, I am definitely not a teenager anymore...). Before her, I had no experience with girl because of extreme shyness and social awkwardness (I am very good at work relationships, not that bad at socializing, but almost clueless with girls).

Two years ago she was diagnosed with BPD. She has been in therapy since then.

She can be really nasty, when she has a crisis. She later realizes the terrible things she said or did, and deeply apologizes. However, because of this, she is almost always feeling guilty about something. On top of that, she tends to be extremely anxious about her work. She has control OCDs and when in doubt she always asks me first. She asks me to check all the email she sends, for example.

She tried to break up with me multiple times, but every time she apologized and came back to me.

She is able to be sweet, funny and cute, but most of the time she is worried/depressed about her work or about the fact she is not doing enough with her own life. She keeps asking me what is the right place for her, what if she did everything wrong and if she should quit her job (even if she is actually very good at it; she is kind of an overachiever).

This girl is not a bad person. She is struggling, she is willing to change, she is genuinely suffering because of her condition; she is not just being "mean".

However... I am starting to feel tired. It is quite an exhausting situation. I do not really know if she will ever learn how to manage her condition.

I spent wonderful moments with her. We have lot in common, when she is in a good mood we can talk for hours and have incredible fun. I feel sympathy for her, and when I find myself wondering if maybe I would be better off alone, I feel in pain and so sorry about her.

In the end, here I am, in doubt just like her, asking for advice. What do you think of this situation? Do you have any advice for me?

Sorry, what?
>>
Well, there's a difference between loving someone and feeling sorry for them. Do you LOVE love her, or just "damn what will happen to you if I leave" love?

It it's the second one, you're not doing any of you a favor by staying with her.
It is not her fault for being sick and it is also not your life mission to stay in an unhappy relationship if that's not what you want.

Try imagining YOUR life without her. Would you like it? Think about it really hard. Don't think about her feelings for a second, just focus on what you want.
Some would say that is mean, but if she loves you, she would understand and want you to be happy and not miserable.

I was like that too.
I think you need to find a bf/gf and then you could be with somebody you love, but alone at the same time.

I had a bf where he would just play games and I would read something. I was alone, having "me" time, but still being with him.

love is a little too touchy for me. I don't feel comfortable getting that close to people, i did back when in 2013 and haven't gone back since. it was so terrible

Your friends sound confused as fuck. Nothing 'happened' because there was no rhyme or reason, and they don't know what they want so don't blame yourself.

Jenna was just the messenger, tried calling Bruce but no dice. Kinda hoping he's just trying to test me or something.

I got high and cheated on my gf, if she found out she'd be absolutely destroyed. No excuses it was my fault all the way but I just don't want her to be hurt any further by my actions. I've been worrying quite a bit because of this. I can accept guilt as a punishment I just really don't want to hurt her any further. What do I do

Any survivors lurking?

How long did it take until you were finally declared cured?

Are you infertile?

Are you in debt?

How was your life as an outpatient?

I apologize for so many questions.

Well this one brought me down petty quick. Sorry about it man, but if it makes you feel any better, try thinking about life as pointless anyways. There's nothing you could have done to prevent this, you just got dealt a shitty hand, so to speak. Except, it's the only hand you get, and when the cards get shuffled back into the deck you're dead... But, hey, everyone else will die too, eventually. The excruciating pain and pumping your body full of poison to maybe cure you once are subjectively pretty terrible, and if I were in your situation I'd probably just off myself... But best of luck to you and, uh, I'd try to sound supportive and motivational here, but I would just want to yell and curse and tell the entire world to go fuck itself, so I'm gonna invite you to do that, because you're entitled to all that and much, much more.

You with friends doing something that shows off muscles subtlety. I'm thinking hiking or maybe washing a big dog while your in a tank or shirtless.

Hiking makes you see deep and connected to nature

Washing dog makes you seem lovable and sexy

pretty much anything that isn't a mirror selfie will be fine. If you look good enough the mirror selfie might be fine too

How can I feel less "triggered" when reading celeb news? Like soke celebs are better than you in EVERY aspect (i. e. way hotter than you, way smarter than you, way richer than you - pic related) and you can't help thinking that the world is so unfair.

I tend to avoid reading celeb news but my kom likes to tell me celeb news (eg. TV shows, ads, relationships, etc) "it is important to stay cool" and when I reacted in a triggered mannershe gets upset and calls me naïve and immature.

Help me out, /adv/.

I had a whole thing written out, but I suppose you don't need all of those details no matter how well it paints the picture.

Anyway, my best friend recently had a girl come into his life. She moved across the country to live with him. Problem is, my friend is in no situation to have a girl move in with him and the girl in question is even worse off than he is. His family and our other friends all agree with me that this girl is no good for him, but given the situation, we can't exactly tell him to give her the boot. No one has spoken up yet (partially because she doesn't leave his side), but I feel like it's up to me.

I don't want to make assumptions, but I sense that my friend himself feels trapped in this relationship. I suppose I could go more into detail if people really want.

How would I go about this with hurting as little feelings as possible? I don't want to pass off as nosy or intolerant, but If I gotta I will.

just tell him look dude you are too fucked up to be with a girl and this girl is too fucked up to be with a guy so like just end it.
>>
>>17156747
Well, if she moved in with him, apparently he is in fact in a situation where he can have someone move in with him. Because it's already happened.

If there's some reason why her living there is going to be unsustainable for him the way he is now, then I guess either it's going to be a problem pretty soon and something is going to change, or he (and she) are going to figure out how to make it work.

If you really believe that what he's doing is self-destructive (and why is that?) then say something to him. Otherwise, assuming they're adults, it's not really anyone else's business. Let them figure it out and stay out of it.

>>17156747
Do you happen to know how they met. I might know the girl

Oh shit, emotions that change? You're bipolar. Here, take gratuitous quantities of this unknown untested medication, it'll put you in a vegetable-like state where you're essentially set on auto-pilot for the rest of your life until you die.
