I let my brother in my group of friends and he constantly disrespects me. Whenever I try to confront him about it, he simply tries to avoid the issue and claims that I'm "attacking him".

I've known these friends for years and I asked them to treat my brother like a friend too, and now I am regretting it. How do I teach my brother some respect, or if worse comes to worse, cut him out (now he is pretty much always tagging along to what we do)?

Banter him back

>he can't take the bantz
>>
Some of the most common ways that he disrespects me is by interrupting me in the middle of when I'm speaking, before I make my point, and assuming my point before I make it (usually he gets the point wrong) he "responds".

Another thing he does is wait until I'm done speaking, then change the topic completely before anyone has a chance to respond to what I just said.

Sometimes, he will interrupt me and just change the topic completely.

He also likes to sometimes position himself in front of me in "circles" so that I am blocked out. He does it unconsciously, but it says a lot about what he's thinking.
>>
>>17094351
Depending on your ages, beat the shit out of him.

You should call him out on his shit in front of people. In front of your friends, when he disrespects you, say it out loud, and tell him how much he is acting like a child.

What exactly is he doing?

One little frustrating thing can ruin my whole day and make me wanna kill myself. I just punched a wall and started crying w/ extreme self loathing just because a CPU fan wouldn't fit into my computer. What's wrong with me and how can I fix it?

You sound like you have a lot of pent up stress. I used to be like this because I was avoiding working on the major stressors in my life. Do you have anything like that?
>>
There are professional people out there that are only solely to help you with this kind of issue.

A therapist isn't just for crazy people, and even the most normal of people need a little help in their life every once in a while.

A professional therapist would find the best options in helping you with this little anger management issue you have and help you live a better life in the process. It is a win-win!

Can't hold a job because of my stutter, haven't been remotely attracted to anyone in a couple of years (maybe because my last girlfriend treated me like trash) and have a shit relationship with my parents who I still live with because I'm 18 & can't hold a job because of the stutter. That's probably it but I can't really fix any of that.

Does alcohol work well with energy drinks or do the effects counteract each other? I'm thinking about mixing some tonight, but not if it turns out awful.

Energy drink give you a caffeine boost and a sugar rush while alcohol lowers your inabisions, a good combo since alcohol can often make you tired as well <3

They make you energetic and feel less drunk, but in reality you'll be very drunk. It's hard on your heart and might make you go crazy

I am new to the world of online dating. Been searching a few sites for a while now without being interested in anyone until I see my the spitting image of my perfect dream girl (at least based on a profile). She just ticks every box I am looking for plus more. I nervously messaged her but no response after a few days. I can't stop thinking about her and no one else on any of the sites remotely compares so i am not interested. What should I do or how long do I wait to send a second message if do so at all?

DONT FALL IN LOVE WITH A GIRL YOUVE NEVER MET

Online dating is often a numbers game man, sorry to break it to you but she's probs got 100's of guys messaging her and your not the only one being ignored

You'll probably need to lower your standards or meet a girl in real.

>>17094355
Thanks for the advice. I completely understand that on a rational level but it's not so easy to do ahaha. I was hoping letting it out would help that.

Check 100000 girls online, message 10000, get 1000 replies get good with 100 of them, fuck 10 of them and get one of them to be your girlfriend. This technique is known as "fishing with a large net". It works really well even if you have high standards. If you don't get replies you need to git gud at your profile and at messages. You will, eventually.

I'm 23 and made a C average in high school. Is it possible for me to take some kind of admission test to get into a good collage. I did bounce in and out of foster care in high school so that kind of fucked my grades.

Look into a transfer degree from an acceptable community college. If you get a 2 year degree from a 2 year school and then transfer into university, they won't even look at your high school grades. Just be sure you do well at the 2 year school.
>>
Community College and regionally accredited online universities are both options, and you can transfer from either one.

Ok, so a girl told me in no uncertain terms she liked me last Tuesday night. Things were kind of awkward (we're both very shy) and she got worried, telling me "you can forget I said anything if you want - maybe it would be too awkward" and I got worried she was going to flake, so I told her we can just take things one step at a time and try to get to know each-other better.

The next day she acts like nothing happened between us in public, no looks or anything, but one-on-one she obviously enjoys my company. I try to offer to spend time with her helping with her homework/maybe watch TV but she's really busy that day.

That night, we have a deep conversation via text (she's only really comfortable texting at the moment I think) and we're basically "going out", according to her.

I unfortunately have to leave the following day for work-related reasons. We talk a bit that morning/about the weather etc, she's super busy with her studies (we have finals coming up) and so we part ways. Again, in public it's like nothing happened, although she did give me a look and a smile at one point.

Next day, I'm busy all day working, but I text her at like 8pm to ask her about some band she told me about the other day. She texts the next morning (i.e. this morning), a one-line answer kind of thing, and I texted back but didn't hear from her till this evening - she apologises, she was working since 11am and had to do overtime, we talk a bit about that, I ask her when she's heading back to the college and she says it's weather dependent.

I won't see her until either tomorrow evening or Monday. We'll be there Monday/Tuesday most likely, although she could stay longer, I don't know. I'm conscious that we've been in this kind of weird limbo for nearly a week now, only speaking every so often via text - and she doesn't text like instant answers, nor do I, we kind of text and get answers back to one another every 15/20 minutes or even an hour.

I haven't even had a proper conversation with her in person yet about things. I feel like we should go on a date, should I just text her tomorrow about this and just ask her if she wants to do something Monday or Tuesday? I'm worried I'm going to come on too strong, or text her too much or something, I don't want to scare her off because she's obviously very shy/awkward and she's also very busy. We both are, in fact.
>>
Just offer to hang out with her, but you need to find out where to do it and what you are going to do based on what she likes.

The texting is your friend for now. Use it.
>>
>>17094188
Ok, things are kind of complicated by the fact that our college is in a very rural and isolated area and there's nothing to do in the immediate vicinity, apart from hang out in the dorm common room - hence my suggestion of TV or something. The weather is also going to be terrible Monday and Tuesday.

I don't have a car yet unfortunately, but I'm planning on sorting that issue very soon. She, on the other hand, does have a car. It feels a bit shitty asking her to drive us but I could pay for whatever we do. I know she likes movies, but the nearest cinema is like 30-40 miles away, and she'd have to drive that.

We could go to the nearest town for dinner or something, she did that with her friend the day she asked me out (they were working together or something I think, like I said she's shy). That's one possibility, I suppose.

Don't upgrade from 7 straight to 10 unless you want a fresh reinstall. There are so many glitches and problems from going from 7 to 10.

2. Gossipers

Listen, im a grown man and dont need this SHIT. How can i overcome this?

Have you talked to this friend at any point? Talking to the is different than seeing them. If you talk to this friend, it will either end with nothing happening and you still hate the person, OR you will settle this little debacle and you can move on with your life.

Either way, you can't be much worse off if you try it.

How to deal with an angry boyfriend who says really hurtful things and cusses when he's mad? Last night he got ticked off over a conversation about if we should go to the movies and wanting to break up with me just because of that.

just stay calm, confidence and people skills are typically what they're looking for. it also usually helps to appear to be someone who is pleasant to spend time around because they're working with you so an interview is how they figure out if you're professional and not uncomfortable to be around

It depends on what you are trying to apply to.

What did you try to apply for the first time around?

>>17094013
as long as you avoid talking to fast. just talk as if you're talking to a family member you'll do well.

also when asked why you want that position a good answer would be that you want work experience
