I'll try to put this into a simple timeline:

>known girl since 2014, loose hookups since
>this year, in january, she meets a guy at the beach
>gets enamored with him
>around february/march we start getting to know each other better
>all while she's still casually seeing the other guy
>things get intense, lots of words exchanged
>eventually we have sex, I'm her first, in everything
>she immediately gets weird afterwards
>after two weeks of weirdness confesses to me that she's got a dilemma
>sometimes she feels like she loves me, and sometimes it's just a crazy attraction, and at the same time she "identifies" with this other guy
>basically she's split between me and him
>say to her that I wanna be with her
>think some progress will come of this
>it stays weird
>yesterday I finally open up about all this and tell her that she's acting different since we slept together and it's disturbing me a lot
>she replies with "I don't know what to say" and goes to sleep (shutting wi-fi off)

I'm frustrated and at my wit's end. What do I do?

Pic related, she looks like Holly Earl.

Break it off, save the trouble

Probably not ready/old enough to settle down

Probably has messed around with this dude already

Probably will stay on your mind even if she chooses you

>Probably

You won't break it off though because boys are retards for girls up til they are 25 or 30. My suggestion is to make it clear what you want (assuming you want to be with her) and have her make a choice.
>>
Not worth it. Let it go.

Ironically, when you do let it go, she'll probably be more interested.

Also, she probably also slept with the other guy
>>
Try to stop caring about her, be glad for the sex and cuddlan, as long as it's on the table but start to look for some other girl that actually wants to be serious.

Sometimes I think that being with my ex is the best that happened in my life. She was cute and I loved the energy she had, but she didn't love me. She is the only person I have had sex with. I feel lonely now and crippled and think everyday about her, even tho it has been 6 months since we stopped seeing each other and we only dated two months. I have no friends and I can't enjoy life sometimes because I have too high standards for my grades in uni. I feel like in a prison, and my anxiety and shyness doesn't help either.

I know this is hard. I feel similar (recently dumped, small social circle, not much distraction). Do you miss this girl, or do you miss the feeling she gave you? This is an important distiction. When I separated the feelings of caring for the wellbeing of this girl from the feelings she gave me I realized I mostly missed what she gave me, and I realized that I could get this feeling from somebody else as well (and I did).

Regarding your lack of friends, has this always been this way?

How do I become more interesting? I'm good at the short term...aka making friends quickly. But, when it comes to the long term, people seem to lose interest and slowly stop talking.
I'm not sure why it happens, and I'm talking about people I'm just friends with. There's not much to do around where I live, and most of my friends live a good +30min away from me...so it's not like I can just call them up and go to a movie.
Idk it's super frustrating because this happens far to often. Where people slowly stop talking to me and I don't know why.

Be a good listener, know when to interject in between their monologues. Find out what they like, consider trying it with them, it'll either end with: you liking it and being able to talk about it with them; or failing and them being grateful you gave it a shot and try something else either they or you like.

In the end friendship is just experiences that break up the mundane, either through conversation or physical activity.
>>
Also, you'll have to remember that even if you try your best to be a good friend, not everyone is gonna become a close and best friend. This could be for a myriad of reasons, but ultimately it happens, don't let it get ya down.

Get the fuck off of 4chan, go out and do something worth talking about.

Not even trolling. People likely get tired of you because all you ever talk about is various forms of media you consume all day.

Check this screenshot out /adv/...

How do I protect myself from this humongous faggotery?

Note how stupidly geographically illiterate she is – In the text I said I was in the US (as a joke when I wasn’t) and she still wants to meet. TOTALLY IGNORED like a narcissist and then REVERTS THE CONVERSATION TO HERSELF.

All day, all night she and others texting. 24 hours a day. No matter if its 1am, 3 am, 12 pm – the texts continue.

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night with 25 fuc*king missed calls.

11am I no longer have battery.

I'm on the other side of the world on a tropical island known as the asscrack of the planet surrounded by shitheads, by the way.

And it's not just her.

They hand out my number to friends, family, cousin and work colleagues. As soon as I realize, I have the whole fu*king world begging for the most trivial of things. Its mind-blowing.

Begging for dead grandma burials, family emergencies, even fu*king school projects for the kids and much more...

I even got on my phone requests for money for abortions, food, money, paying bills to landlord issues and being stuck in a location without money to return home (why do they go somewhere with just enough for one way?) – and yes, these stupid fucking idiots think that they can just ask and PERSIST like beggars asking for money always.

it’s mind boggling...
>>
My record is 115 text messages all up in one day begging for money mostly.

I thought species like this (resembling human beings) didn't exist in the world nowadays cause they'd gone extinct millenia ago... but as it turns out, they're alive and quite well.

And they're fucking persistent when they want money but nowhere to be seen when they don’t need you (especially if you mention work).

ALWAYS HANG AROUND LIKE FLIES ON DOG SHIT.

These people are authentic NINJAS.
NO JOB
NO INCOME
NO ASSETS
The girls bring NOTHING to the relationship table except a pussy.
Just like babies, these misfits and losers
Happens throughout society, from engineers all the way down to beggers.
If they have a degree they still expect to be taken care of.

Even last night I had this person ringing me constantly trying to get 90 cents out of me and from 4 am onward they started ringing to ask for a cellphone load so that they could give it to their mum so that she could ring the brother in a distant town for food money.

What a complication... absolutly surreal.

How bad is it that I am not keeping up with recent celeb news in my country? My mom likes to show me new music videos released my local celebs here. The truth is I don't really care. Even for Anglo celeb news, I don't really care and I'm not that up-to-date for that.
I don't want biased, r9k-tier advice.

You sure this is not biased advice?

>>
>>17136434
it's pretty sick, how society overall is so absorbed in the private lives of other people.

as far as celebrity gossip goes, just smile and nod when she's onto it. whatever you do, don't do any research just to dish with her, even the smallest bit. she'll never let it go at that point, and that only encourages the voyeurism.

2 weeks of Zoloft here.

All I'm getting is dizziness, nausea, and bad headaches. Hopefully I'll get better in a few weeks.
>>
>>17136374
There's a brief adjustment period to allow your brain to rewire during those first few weeks so hopefully you'll start feeling better soon. To help with the nausea and headaches apparently upping your water intake can help, as can taking your medication with meals.

I'm about to start Celexa soon so best of luck to both of us!

So /adv/ I passed all my exams, and I dont know wich to choose now.
Cooking or electrical engineering.
The school where they teach cooking looks A LOT better, and the idea of me learning cooking in that school, wearing uniform and shit really suits me, I like it, and I think I can do that.

But there is electrical engineering, the school...isnt best looking I dont know if I want to do math anymore, but if you look at this with another perspective, its a lot better in long run, or is it?
I want to be programmer, but is it really better than cooking in some hotel ? Will I find that more fun? will I get more money ?
And will I ever be able to finish that school ?
What would you choose, and why.

Go with cooking mane. Like you said, if it
suits you more then do cooking. You dont wanna go to a shitty achool and feel like youre missing out.
And if you feel like cooking isnt your thing then just start Engineering school
>>
>>17136309
I'm a programmer who likes to cook (sometimes). I started programming as a kid because it's what I liked to do for fun. Being a full time chef seems like a pain in the ass.

Do you cook for fun? Do you program for fun? If the answer to both is "no" then you really have no idea whether or not you'd enjoy either.
>>
The nice thing about cooking is that if you know how to be a line cook you can literally go anywhere you want and be able to find a job at the drop of a chef's hat.

What do I do? Tell her straight out no more? Ignore her or block her and hope for the best? She knows the school I work at - should I tell the staff to watch out?

I'm a bit freaked out, never had this experience before, so help please.

Don't leave shit ambiguous or she'll latch onto it even more. Be honest with her, tell her you feel she's coming on too strong and you don't want to continue because of it. If she reacts badly and continues to pester you, block her. If (god forbid) she starts stalking you, keep a record of the stalkings so you can show the police if it escalates. You only really need to tell the school staff if she shows signs of pestering or stalking. Stay calm and hang in there, friendo

Its called relationships. Lost a couple of friends because of it.

I need a hobby that I can use to grow and maybe make money out of. Something that can keep me as interested, or at least compulsive, as sitting behind a computer screen for 12+ hours is.

No job, thanks. Got one of those. Just something to help me pass the time on my days off.

Also I have trouble working out because I tend to drop it due to depression around the one month point. So while that suggestion will be appreciated, I would like others as well.

The definition of a hobby is something you don't or can't make money off of. If your enjoyment is derived only through making money off of it, you are best taking up a second side job or picking up new work skills (e.g. taking management courses that will work towards padding your resume).

If your derive pleasure out of getting tangible results, do things like starting a windowsill garden. Homebrew.

If you derive pleasure out of social aspects and getting "out and about", volunteer as a dog walker at your local shelter. Join a book club or hiking club. Sign up for dance or martial arts classes.
>>
>>17136257
I originally mentioned the hobby as a source of income because I was thinking about getting into costume making. Since I occasionally cosplay and LARP. Which can lead to pocket money if I do it for other people.

But yeah, not too keen on social hobbies. Not too great with people but dog walking sounds great.

Can't do gardening because I would probably neglect it and they would wither away. Similar to working out. I'm terrible with long term goals because my depression drags me down. What do you mean by homebrew though?

An annoying guy from my lectures that I don't want to be friends with is stubbornly trying to befriend me. He keeps calling me out for a beer and things like that and I recently accepted his invite because saying "no, I don't want to hang out with you" seems very rude. We're both men.

How do I politely make it clear to him that I'm not interested in friendship?

by saying "No, I don't want to hang out with you".

What other option do you have, offer him subtle hints? Boo-hoo you're going to hurt his feelings, he'll get over it.
>>
Why do you find him annoying and why are you not interested in a friendship with him? Insofar as I could tell, his interest in you will wane after a few beers that fall flat (har har) in conversation, he will stop inviting you out to shit and will call you a friend. Better than making enemies, no?

If you believe that his reason for inviting you out is to engage you in some kind of bullshit scheme (multilevel marketing, join a religion or some bullshit society, act as a wingmen for his PUA testing grounds), then point out the bullshit scheme that is afoot and say you are not interested in THAT.

Part of growing up and being an adult is to learn how to not make enemies out of everyone that you are not interested in. You can hold pleasant conversations and light friendships with women that you don't intend to date. You can occasionally greet a guy warmly at a party who you don't normally feel like hanging on the weekends.
>>
>>17136242
There's a difference between greeting someone warmly and going out with them. And all that about not making enemies is bullshit, if you're not interested in someone, don't act like they're your friends just for the sake of being nice. It will only annoy you.

Okay /adv/, I'm a frequent /fit/izen but they never give me a straight answer about this kind of stuff.

Was previously on par with Skeletor but after two years in the gym, I'm finally confident about my body, probably the only thing I'm confident about. How do I exude confidence in day to day situations, this isn't even about girls, just in general.

A little off topic, but I aced drama in school, I'm a decent actor. I'm great at pretending to be my 'Tyler Durden' but my facade drops over time cause it's such an effort to keep up. I can't be consistant with the act and the depression shines through and when they know the real me they break off contact immediately.

How do it become confident instead of pretending to be.

Well no one can be confident in everything. If you want to be confident regarding something you need to prove to yourself that you can be good at that thing. So, for example to be confident at work you need to have great results and to be able to do anything that's thrown at you without a huge amount of effort. To be confident in something you also need to understand it. So for instance, when it comes to picking up girls you can't always have amazing results for reasons that may not be your fault. So to be confident in this regard you also need to understand why it happens.

Basically to be confident about something means you need to understand that thing and be good at it. It's hard to say how to exude confidence in day to day situations, this is more about yourself than anything else. To do that you need to see yourself as capable and reliable and you achieve that by... well by being capable and reliable. If you're the kind of person that manages to do any reasonable task that's thrown at them and people rely on you for stuff then you will be confident in most daily situations. There are no shortcuts/
>>
Pretend to be a confident you, not someone else. It's a bit harder since it's easier to pretend confidence as someone else, but you can fake being a confident you, and in time you will be. Take same pride in what you accomplished, not by the standards of other people but yourself, you don't have to brag about it.
