Archived threads in /adv/ - Advice - 5627. page

This is a blue board which means that it's for everybody (Safe For Work content only). If you see any adult content, please report it.

I tried to repeat myself rational formulas and lines (like "there's nothing more i can do about it" "it's no use beating myself up for things" "thinking about this changes nothing outside" etc.), but it's almost like i always need to think and obsess over something negative in my life.

Even when my life doesn't have real problems, i come up with a silly and stupid one, but i give that "problem" too much value and importance. To give you an example, i cried because a ship (pairing two fictional characters) i like will never become canon, and i'm male. This isn't a big deal at all rationally, but right now it's like that ship is the most important thing in my world.

I'm trying to distract myself trying different stuff, but i don't have a "passion" (be it a hobby, a job or a relationship) in life that takes my mind, so i always go back to the current obsession or problem, and i feel miserable even when i'm doing other stuff like studying.

Thanks in advance for any help, try to be as detailed as possible.

i wish i could help but when it comes to 'i cried cuz my ships will never be canon' there isnt anything anyone can really say other than get over it.

the best we can offer is the advice to get therapy and talk it out more.

You need to move on, and for lack of better words "grow up"

When it comes to the emotional waves of human beans, everything is relative. Right now, not much of any real importance is happening in your life, yet relatively speaking, your emotions have adapted to this fact, and you are creating drama over things that people with a higher level of maturity see as ridiculous and absurd.

You're mind is affixing values to experiences that most of adult society would consider childish and insignificant. This is simply because you are not taking on the greater responsibilities of adulthood, for one reason or another. It may be your fault, it may not... that is irrelevant to the point... -- the point being that you need to move your life in a direction that will give you experience in dealing with greater trials and tribulations.

Your self-esteem is likely low. You fear rejection (in all ways). The only way to learn to overcome this is by dealing with it more. Practice makes perfect, afterall.

If a person who is bad by default does something good, does that make the person good?

If a person that is bad by default does not do something bad, does that make that person good?

More importantly, if a person who is bad by default, realizing he's a threat to anyone in his immediate surrounding, deliberately isolates himself from society, thus voluntarily withdrawing himself from life, does that nullify the fact that the person is, by default, bad?

Be honest. I don't want to be comforted, I want to know what normal people would really think.

You're a faggot op.

Also, there's no such thing as inherently bad or good people, there's just the shit you do. Actions are what matters, and no one of them wipes out another.

>there's no such thing as inherently bad or good people
>actions are what matters

This goes under the pressumption that people make decisions at all times instead of being influenced by the way they are.

Some people simply have short temper and are selfish, while others are calm and kind.

Which is to say, the course of action of different people can be completely predictable based on their past behaviours, thus confirming the thesis that the future is, somehow, fate. Therefore, being bad and good can be said to be inheritly inherited traits.

>you're a faggot

Keep in mind I never said I'm the given person when making your reply.

good and bad are subjective qualities, perceived by those you are associated with. there are those who are more asocial and those who are more prosocial based on their intrinsic motivations (which could be instinct or conscious decision).

how you act is ultimately your choice, though you may find it more difficult to perform good acts when driven by asocial motivations. the real question is: what do you want? is this to do with your sense of self worth or do you think such things have a greater meaning in life?

Do any of you have a significant other who is difficult to contact/anti-social at times?

My partner often disappears off the radar for a few days. Nothing sinister, he just finishes work or school, gets home, sits down and shuts off. He makes an effort to get in touch with me through the day but it's not abnormal to not hear from him for a few days. When this happens, I usually like to leave him to it and wait for him to get in touch.

Although I appreciate it's just what he's like as a person, sometimes I can't help but take it personally. He's usually on my mind throughout the day, so I find it quite difficult to accept the fact that he doesn't think to send me a quick message to say hi and ask how I am sometimes.

I find it so odd that really I'm just looking for people who can relate to his behaviour themselves, or maybe people who have partners who do something similar? It would be nice to know that it's not indifference, just habit. Sometimes it easy to forget that not everybody has the same thought process as yourself.

iots not indifference.

Look traditionally guys went out of their cave hunting when they had no contact with their families for days or weeks. Prolonged non stop contact with people is tiring. We need a break.
>>
>>16999355
>a few days

Was this a typo, or you for real?
>>
>>16999360

Thanks for your response. This definitely makes sense and is why I leave him to it. I assume he's just sitting at home watching tv or recovering from his day. I like to think he doesn't get in touch because he knows we're fine and I don't need him to be there all the time. We also see each other fairly often, so it's not like we have anything really important to talk about. However, it would be really nice to hear from him, just to show I'm on his mind.

I'm trying my best not to let it get to me because I've known his habits from the very beginning.

Question: why do I feel so miserable and unhappy?

Context: 23yo male, caucasian.
Doctor. Going to start my PhD next year. College professor. Writing / editor-in-chief of college book to be used as main bibliography of said subject in medical schools throughout the country.
General 23yo hobbies and activities, nothing out of the ordinary.
Sleep well, proper eating, whenever possible (sometimes I can't have lunch, since our lunch hour is during family visits to the patients, and we have to be available)

I feel like I'm doing ok in life. And yet, I've been miserable and unhappy for about a year now. No apparent cause.
Already did some routine tests. Thyroid function is normal. Did a head CT scan, no signs of encephalitis. No apparent organic cause for depression. I do not fill DSM-V's criteria for any mood disorder.

What am I missing? Professionally, I'm okay. Socially, I'm okay. Personally, I'm okay. But I guess that's the problem - is "okay" not enough for me? I can't seem to wrap my mind on this problem.

tl;dr - maybe subclinical depression? food for thought?

Do I need to be the best guy she ever met in order for a girl to be in a relationship with me? How is that possible considering people meet loads of other people every day? I feel like I will never be as good as some other guys she will soon or eventually meet in college or at work.

No, be yourself. If a girl looks or talks to you in a way that shows interest ask for her number or ask her out. If she accepts woohoo. If not rinse and repeat

It's almost been a year since my ex-girlfriend ended things with me. We were together three years. I've taken the necessary steps to move on with my life, and for the most part I'm in a much better position than I was back then. We have not spoken since, nor have I seen her or know what she's doing (blocked off social media etc).

I still think about her every day. Usually the feelings are numb, but today has been particularly difficult remembering it all ended this month. I feel like I'm doing something wrong and that I shouldn't be thinking of her anymore.

I just need some advice really.

Stop thinking of her because you know she's not thinking about you. You'll wake up one day and realize how pathetic it is.

So we all know that actual rape is horrible.
We all know those faggots that say that orgasm = consent are just idiot virginal trolls that watched too much porn.

But we also know that rape is just about the number one fantasy of women.

Why the fuck IS that? Are you just imagining a rape that is unrealistically vanilla and romantic, like a big hunky clean Fabio that gently forces you to submit to him? Or is it the actual awful parts of rape - the pain, the rudeness and selfishness of the rapist, the danger of injury or pregnancy - do those things actually sound hot?

I suppose it's the idea of control (same with cock caging/chastity/cuckholding/bdsm/ect) but taken to its extreme. I feel that a lot of fetishes and kinks are based around the idea of giving up control, or taking it, or ect-cetera.

Personally, I have a rape fetish. It only manifests itself around seeing powerful, arrogant type characters though. I don’t self insert--I fantasize about them being brought low and humiliated, and rape is one of the fastest ways you can do that.
>>
The latter. Because societal conditioning has made it so that the rude arrogant and selfish men are the most desirable.
>See Bond movies

It's fucked up. It's twisted, and it wont change for my generation. Unfortunately it's spurred this side culture of supposedly "Alpha" males on 4chan that think women want to be raped, not understanding the idea of a fantasy, but meh.
>>
It's an issue of semantics. Most women don't really want to be "raped" in the sense that we think of, including the violence and pain. They do however crave the rush of excitement, of the unknown, being "taken" forcefully (not painfully). Basically they want to feel helpless, but secure at the same time. They want to feel like they aren't in control, but that the man doing it is "alpha" enough (strong, capable, aggressive) to control the situation.

Part of it is the the adrenaline rush, as fear does turn many people on, especially women.

The ones who also enjoy the pain aspect usually are into hitting, slapping, squeezing or pulling. As long as they are wet, you could do whatever and it would only turn them on more. I think going in dry would be the only exception.

I hear that 99% of long distance and internet relationships fail. People who were in or know personal examples of the 1%, what made that case different?

What do you consider "not failing"?
Been in a long term/long distance relationship for 9 years now, but we live close enough to each other to see each other every other weekend or so. Probably moving in together as soon as we can afford it.
>>
>>16999201
>What do you consider "not failing"?
Not breaking up because of reasons closely tied to the distance. In my case I'm tempted to with this girl in Portugal (I'm in the USA), I bond with her way better than anyone from my home country, and there's a real possibility of closing the distance in the next 2-4 years since she wants to do her PhD here, in the same field I do. Not only that, distance is inevitable if I succeed in my career goal of working in Antarctica.

Anyone here hate getting gifts?

I'm not talking about being disappointed or feeling bad because someone got you something you know they can't afford.

I'm talking about getting gifts in general. I always feel sad or guilty, like why would someone spend the money on me? I'm not important enough to drop 20 bucks on, I'm just some guy. Not like I cured polio or something.

Any advice? I've told people not to get me gifts but it hasn't had much effect. The most I get is "Of course you deserve gifts, it's your birthday/christmas/whatever" but I feel bad either way.

I cut off all my friends due to depression but I'm having second thoughts.

>Deactivated all social media and apps
>Avoided them (99.9% are online)
I feel like I'm doing this for reassurance but clearly they don't really care since no one seemed to message me or ask me if I'm ok. I had decided to just shut myself off from everyone but I fear I may be making a grave mistake.

She and I are apart, on other sides of the world. She felt as though we were holding each other back as she wants to travel and i want a career in film.

I understand where she is coming from, but in my eyes, the idea of travelling with her was equally as appealing as any career opportunity.

I want to think she knew this...

IUD is almost fool-proof
Being limp doesn't mean there isn't sperm
Not cumming doesn't mean there isn't sperm

There is always a chance.
Sperm are crazy-ass mother-fuckers ;)

But with the IUD, chances are slim.

Next time, try a rubber.

Without the IUD, your odds would be about 1 in 30. IUDs are almost as effective as the pill can be (and in practice they're actually more effective, because the pill is prone to user errors while IUDs are not).

tl;dr - The odds are not zero, but they're extremely low.

How do I deal with ageing? I don't know whether I can be ok with it but it's unavoidable.

Can you still be considered attractive at the age of 30 or 40?

I wish I could share my young body with someone I cared about but all I've managed to do is develop unrequited love for people, I've never been able to get a relationship.

I guess I'm just depressed about it all.

I'm also going through my crisis a little early. So what I'm doing is saving up for a breast lift + implants, working out, and taking as good care of my skin as I can. It's basically trying to beat back the ravages of time with a stick, though. Eventually, the stick's going to break, and I'm going to get wrinkly and die, just like everyone else. Hopefully my tits look nice for whoever does my autopsy, though.
