Ethical dilemma: A few days ago I invited my friends to go to a sporting event. One couldn't make it and the other seemed excited. A few days passed and neither of us mentioned it. I hoping that he forgot, because I don't really want to go with just him, invited my mom to come instead because she doesn't really do much and thought it would be fun. Well yesterday my friend asked me about it again and asked when we were leaving and etc. So now two people plan on going to the event tonight but I just kind of want to go with my mom. Should I lie to my friend or tell him I don't really want to go? Or should I honor the fact that I invited him first?

I think you should go with the friend.

Imo, the people I hang out with where it "would be weird to hangout with" often are the ones where I have the most enjoyment, but thats just me.

You're your own autonomous person, you can do whatever you want. Don't wanna go with him? Lie. But consider what I previously said.

I would, because as a nursing student who sees people at their worst, I've gotten used to it, so they're not 'disgusting' to me.

However, I understand that there are dozens of studies that make the factual claim that attractive people are treated better.

Attractive people make more money, get better jobs, etc. etc.

That's how society functions.

In a society where ONLY 2% of the population is 'different,' then yeah, we'd fuck them over immensely. We've fucked over "different looking people" where the population was around 25-50%

With bad personalities though?

Haha good luck.

Atleast the good personalities uglies can get away with having friends and girls.

Let's talk about gay sex.
Yesterday (12 hours ago exactly) I had sex with a gay guy.
He came inside me with a condom. No problems.
But he took it out and I told him to put another condom.
I grabbed his cock (which had some cum on it) and later, I did put on his condom for him but with my hands with dry cum on it. Because I touched the condom with my bare hands , should I worry about taking PreP?
I was bottom. Should I just chill out and see or should I Go to the doc n make the PrEP?

no open wounds in hands.
But you know: Guy took out condom.
I grab his penis with fresh cum.
Feel secs later the cum dries and I get another condom for him.
Put the condom for him with hands dirty.
He sticks it in me.
>>
>>18610976
Yea unless you fucking put them in your mouth then I'll be worried if it doesn't get anywhere in your body through open wounds just wash your hands and you're fine. Doctors have to deal with HIV patients will injections and blocking up their open wounds with blood flowing out and they don't get infected.

If you're really worried go for PrEP, if it's enough insurance for you.

How the hell do you get a job?

I finished college, moved out, and have been working a shitty government job for the past two years. In that time I've been constantly applying to jobs I'm actually trained to do. I meet and usually surpass all the requirements for them, but not a single place has even bothered getting back to me. I'm keeping up a presence on LinkedIn, making connections wherever possible, but nothing's working and I'm stuck working as a goddamn mailman for the foreseeable future.

What the hell am I supposed to do to get noticed by a hiring manager and not just get tossed aside in favor of someone with more on-the-job experience?

Assuming that you are indeed qualified for the jobs, then the problem lies at the point of failure. For a lot of people it's the interview, but in your case it looks like there's something off-putting (or at least not on-putting) about your CV and letter.

Rethink them. Start from the assumption that whatever you're doing is wrong, so you have nothing to lose by presenting yourself some other way. Look online for samples of CVs and letters, and choose one (or more) that's different from yours.

Another idea: bypass the HR department by writing directly to the head of the department you'd be in. He/she might understand your CV better and see in youy what a non-specialist HR person wouldn't

Hey guys, I live in a tough crime city (no not Detroit). It use to be worse but they gutted out alot of the gangs, and it started to get gentrified. My girlfriends family lives around the corner from me and have been the target to multiple vandalism, their car got jacked twice and it was the crack house by them. They are middle class educated, and they own the house. They reported the crackhouse and the city stepped in and shut it down. But they just fixed it up and fenced it up . Most of their neighbors are gang members or affiliated. Someone just thrashed their brothers car twice, and then grabbed a pot and smashed their windows with it. My girlfriend called me and its been about a year since the last incident but now this happened and I am tired. So are they, They want to buy a gun legally and install cameras. But I feel like things are deeper than that, the city is in on it. The prostitution rings, the drugs, gangs,etc. I just finished watching Gotham and it reminds me of how my city is. I see police buying prostitutes and talking to drug dealers too. I want to combat it, because besides this the city is beautiful, and has a lot of potential. But I dont know how and where to start. Even our politicians are bought off.

Most crimes are crimes of opportunity because most criminals are lazy. If you put very visible locks on your doors and windows a crook won't bother trying to defeat them, because it's easier to go to the undefended house next door. Motion-triggered lights around your house, one of those steering wheel immobilizer bars in the car, even stickers on your door saying you have a burglar alarm even if you don't - that sort of thing will send the bad guys away.

That someone isn't "perfect", you just want him or her to be because ou obviously don't either know yourself that much or can't get anyone else. Those people are mentaly ill and hormonaly fucked. Don't waste your time.

"Perfect" as in "covers all my (other) criteria for a partner.

1. 16-36 years old
2. Same cultural background
3. Good personality
4. Physically appealing to me (not a necessity but a plus nonetheless)
5. Willing and interested in dating my damaged ass.

You don't find someone like that every day. Or year.

Be mentally strong and this place will only broaden your horizons. Unfiltered wisdom, memes, apathy, anger, basically full spectrum of emotions can be found here and only to make you stronger.

Be mentally weak, fall into one of many echo chambers, visit too much the wrong boards (pol) or too random boards (b) and you will become jaded, maybe even give up on life and slowly become like pic related.

Be curious horny teen and this place will turn you into >>>/d/egenerate.

Depends where you go. /r9k/ will make you miserable unless you want to help others (and even then, you better have a lot of self confidence - misery loves company). If you can sift through the antisemitism (some warranted, most not), you'll have your worldview changed for the better on /pol/, but you'll also come to hate a lot of normal shit (I personally see this as a perk). /g/ will make you pretty literate in tech, but you're not gonna learn to code or anything. You'll more just become familiar with linux alternatives to google, as well as what good/bad phones/watches are out there.

So about this time last year my best friend had abandoned me when I needed her most. I was crucial to her betterment of mental health, talked her out of suicide and was there to support her the entire time she was going through a rough patch. While this started out as just me being nice to a girl I had met, Emma and I had become increasingly close over the 2 year period to the point where losing her was my biggest fear, I knew everything about her and just had to take a look at her to tell if she was upset or not.

Anyways around August last year, after she got better she ditched me for anon after I asked to see her while I was having some suicidal thought and then we got in an argument about her putting study time over me after all of the time and effort that affected my mental health for her. This argument resulted in her telling me she no longer wanted to see me and that sent me into a downward spiral of loneliness and increasing thoughts of suicide, to the extent where I nearly dived in front of a bus. So 12 months later I hear that she was suffering a breakdown and began talking about suicide and to my own disgust I couldn't help but feel somewhat satisfied by the news? I know its wrong of me to feel satisfaction in someone else`s lack of mental health but after the hell I went through last year that still arises to this day I cant help but feel a sense of justice and karma.

How bad of a person am I? I cant say that I feel better knowing she is suicidal but I almost want to tell her that maybe she can come close to how I felt and that she should be grateful people are at least caring she feels this way.

You know how people say 'it's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all'? It's all bullshit. By never loved, you've never lost anything. Losing someone feels like a part of you has been removed.

No gf is fine OP. Keep working out, get Tinder, bang some women and try not to fall in love. You'll be happier that way.

I had a dream that every action I took, even what I saw and felt, was subject to the whim of some entity that exists inside my mind. Several times I tried waking up and walking away, only to find my muscles unresponsive, or sometimes I physically flew away, or at least visually perceived I did, but each time I woke on a newer plane to the voice of someone taunting me, as if my futile attempts at gaining control of my body were a baby's first attempts at standing on his feet.
The odd thing about it was that I started the dream in bed with a female friend that I could easily have but don't particularly want, that I'm holding in reserve in case I actually physically can't get a real girlfriend, before hearing a New York type gangster remarking about how this wasn't the normal time for me to be asleep but nevertheless it was time to get going.
I'm positive I'm awake now because I remember getting home, dicking around and going to sleep alone, but even awake I often believe there's some force inside my mind that prevents me from doing anything I'd really like to do. Like even when I translate the right words I want to say to a prospective date from my weird mental picture language, I might find my legs lock up preventing me from approaching her for just long enough to reason that it was worthless anyway, or even now, despite having several examples of this phenomenon that can't be explained away by 'bee urself', I can't seem to be able to visualize any of them.
So what can I do to free myself of this perceived or actual entity, or live as if it doesn't exist?
Also should I just go for it with this friend? Something about her screams unforseen danger, but I don't think it wants me to have anyone else.

There are a number of things you could be experiencing. False awakenings night terrors pre lucid dreams sleep paralysis and a little phenomenon that makes you feel weightless. False awakenings are common and people have claimed to experience it 104 times in one night.Night terrors are also common and cause fear for no particular reason when you wake up. Pre lucid dreams are when you're aware you're dreaming but aren't quite in control. This happens a lot to. The creepy lady phenomenon is something I'm no stranger to. Tons of creepy girls appear in my dream doing all sorts of weird shit.The your senses are irresponsive thing is also something I experience a ton. Me being unable to move or sometimes even breath in my sleep while a creepy sound approaches or a monster still being visible when I close my eye. Usually what I do when I have these kind of dreams is sleep with the lights on. It makes it harder to sleep but certainly helps.Another thing I like to do is go a room away from the perceived danger and allow my ming to fully awaken and remind myself that none of what I saw is real. I would also reccomend reading a book or watching an episode of something light hearted before you hit the hay again. Try doing some light work out before you sleep or try to mentally and physically exhaust yourself so you're more likely to have a dreamless sleep. If you are experiencing sleep paralysis or are having trouble breathing please consult a doctor. If the dreams persist talk to a friend or go to a therapist.

If you are unsure you're awake try hurting yourself. Not too severely but try punching a Waal or something

Very often I feel like my mind "splits" into two parts, my normal thoughts and a huge mess of existential dread, panic attacks, anxiety fits, and suicidal thoughts, the way I express it is I feel this overwhelming "blankness" in my forhehead, sort of like a numbing sensation and I would just look like I'm zoning out with my eyes wide open. What's going on in my head is I can hear the rational part of my mind go "what the fuck are you doing dude stand up and get some water and watch some rick and morty or something", and the other part screaming with sometimes the most fucking terrible thoughts and feelings I've ever had, recalling childhood trauma and trying to predict how fucked up I'll be in the future. What's going on with me?

what does it mean to find out 'what i have to offer' to someone if i want a relationship? i think i'm emotionally available, dependable, and can support myself. i'm autistic so i'm not entirely sure what having 'something to offer' means. is it something tangible or intangible? or both at the same time?

>>18610620
It can be something both tangible and intangible, and it doesn't mean any one specific thing. I think the phrase is meant to make one introspectively reflect whether or not their life situation is balanced and well-off enough to support being in a relationship, since successful relationships almost always need some key components to work. You're emotionally available and depenedable, so you could "offer" someone security and support, which is very important. You can also support yourself, so you can pull your own weight financially too, which is also important, you could call this offering financial security. That's already a very good base for a relationship on your part and covers many of the absolute key areas.
>>
>>18610654
>. I think the phrase is meant to make one introspectively reflect

Pretty much this.

It's not a literal, "I can give her a roof over her head and 3 square meals a day" thing.

It's a metaphorical, "Do I believe in myself, my self worth, and who I am as a person? Do I think I have something about myself that makes me special in some way and would like to share?"

It's similar to the line of thought that says that "You can't learn to love someone else, until you can learn to love yourself".

If you think you have nothing to offer, if you believe that you have no worth, that that means either trying to enter in a relationship to try and derive your worth from your partner, which is needy, unhealthy, escapist, and does not at all fix your root problems.

And in practical dating terms, almost always makes you come off as desperate or like you have no personality.

Even when such relationships do happen, often times there's a level of insecurity or neediness that ends up creating needlessly dramatic situations that do no good for mental health of any of the people involved.
