The mental and emotional stress of this household is killing me physically. I hate school. I want to get my life started and I really can't handle all this college, especially with with medical bills and things going on at home. I want to move out. I'll do anything, but I can't get a full time job while I'm in school. As soon as I leave school, though, I will be getting kicked out, so I can't secure myself financially. I literally see no way out. I don't want to spend another day in this house, and they threaten homelessness on me all the time. Idk what to do. I don't want to be homeless, but I'm headed there. I have a very low paying job if that helps. Are there alternative ways or anything similar?

go to your bank and apply for a line of credit. even total noobs can get between 3 and 5 thousand dollars line of credit.

you'd likely have to quit college (not sure what your entire schedule is set up for as of now) but with the money you have you can find a place that is at the very least subletting and go live there. you work part time, use the rest of your time to find a new job.

but if you move out college will likely be just a dream assuming you care.

I'm not sure I understand.

>I want to get my life started
Suppose for the moment that you were already getting your life started. What would be different from the current situation?

>and I really can't handle all this college
Are you aware of the setbacks you'll face if you leave school now? In many ways it's worse than never having gone in the first place.

>especially with with medical bills and things going on at home.
I'm sorry to hear about this, but how will quitting school help?

How much time do you have left to go in school? Once you're in, it really is better to finish.

Talk to the office of the student ombuds at your school. These folks can be your best friends. They may be able to figure out a way to get you into on-campus housing, which would get you out of the house while allowing you to stay in school.

When stressed before, I've had small hour long mental breakdowns, however what happened today was nothing like that.

It was an ordinary day at my college, several periods in and I started fantasizing. Initially my fantasies were sexual, but they soon turned violent. In the period before lunch I began feeling the urge to scream. I ran into a secluded room where a few other students were. In this room I began twitching, I felt extremely agitated, zoned out and angry although not at any particular person. I suddenly felt a flurry of agitation and I pushed through a load of people into another room. As the day passed on, I slowly felt the urge to violently lash out at people, but I managed to resist.

What the fuck is wrong with me? I researched online but my experiences seem neither psychotic nor similar to a mental breakdown. I have been stressed recently, but not in the last two days. Anyone know what is going on?

girl gamers are crazy weird #fact

how far is the distance between you?

>but i would pass

So...I'll try to make this quick. Not long ago I decided I was officially done with dating, fast forward, I end up getting myself into what is basically dating someone anyway

She is sweet and I like her, but that for me don't mean we need to suddenly act like a married couple right away, she seems to feel otherwise. I am a very self occupying person, like alone time, etc, she constantly (and I mean constantly) needs attention and likes to talk 24 7, and honestly I just can't do that

What do you do? If she was someone I didn't like, I'd tell her so or just ignore her till she got the point, but I do like her...so what the hell do I do?

Since you like her, and it seems like you think you are in a relationship, the best course of action would be to make it official.

Sit her down, tell her about how much alone time you need/she should expect, etc. I hopefully don't have to tell you how all of that conversation should go and what topics that should include past this.
>>
I've seen similar happen with a bunch of friends. While this is just anecdotal...

What usually happens is the relationship is rocky and chaotic and filled with exciting drama until she gets what she wants.

This is especially the case if she is the kind of girl who thrives on trying to convert what she sees as an essentially good guy who needs to *grow up* or *accept* something. I'd argue this is a personality flaw unless the guy is actively courting this situation.

Eventually this either ends due to him being sick of whining and realising that he didn't want to *grow up* according to the strange desires of another potentially damaged person, or turns into trying to satisfy her need to have constant 'support' and emotional availability.

This can be like ultimately trying to fill a black hole for a lot of insecure people who aren't actively working on these issues and I've seen friends remain in these relationships until she decided that "it just doesn't feel right" or "this is borderline abuse, I always feel crazy" or "I've learnt so much about what love *should* be, and this isn't love". They eventually get dumped.

It works pretty well though if both sides are mutually co-dependent. Sometimes the guy will be so thrown around by the crazy that they end up co-dependent.

I went to an event the other week where I was talking to a friend who I'd not seen for a few months. About 2 minutes into the conversation his girlfriend walked over to interrupt us saying that she was having a really hard time talking to another group of mutual friends and she couldn't believe that he was being so ignorant as to ignore her and them and she'd appreciate it if he came over and showed her some support as his partner like they'd been talking about.

Top kek. As if I'd ever put up with that from my girlfriend. Straight up desire to control someone in order to pad their own poor self esteem.

So I got this girl's number on Thursday. I texted her that exact day and started talking about random shit. But I texted her again on Friday and she completely dodged me, so I'm like OK I won't text her the next day. I texted her yesterday and just said "hey :)" and she said hey back I told her I was chilling watching some Netflix and then I got no response the entire fucking day.
I understand that she might be busy and she may have forgotten about texting. I don't know what to do at this point I want to get to know her better before asking her on a date. Do I leave her alone or do I try my best to start something. Any advice?

Ask her out. That's what you want to do.

She's probably not into you, but take the shot you have nothing to lose.
>>
>>16941740
The thing is that before I even asked for her number she was really friendly towards me and I always caught her staring at me and she is always happy when she is in my lab group so why would she not be interested? If I do ask her out and she rejects we still see each other 3 times a week for class it will be so awkward.

Hi /b/

30 year old male, with 18 year old international (German) girlfriend - looking to make serious long term relationship.

I've a stable, well paying job, industry experience, secondary sources of income - in short I can provide.

She loves my country (Australia), speaks English fluently, and is currently looking to study here to live and create a base for her life. We have an immigration lawyer on our side to assist with Visa and the logistics behind citizenship etc.

I've travelled, she has travelled too - of course I have more 'life experience' but she is open minded and wishes to travel in future with me if we so desire.

I've a long history (previous 8 years) of being single and enjoying it (prior to this, two girlfriends)- she has had a few boyfriends in the past, a few casual flings. She is vehement she loves me and wants us to really take this towards the possibility of a life together.

Im at a point where I'm through with messing around and want a strong and challenging relationship that is worth the effort - I've had the luck of landing a beautiful, intelligent, and challenging young woman, and I've enough experience to silence the nagging and unfounded doubts of fear and uncertainty to realise what an opportunity this is.

Has anyone been in the same situation?

Objective/subjective advice on the matter?

Pic related - it's not us, but I can seriously see it going this way in the next 2-6 years.

At 18 she has no idea what/when/how she sees her life unfolding. Plenty of partying to be done before settling down.

You change completely in your 20's. Thus is going to be extremely ugly. You will have kids and when she turns 30 she will start resent you because she missed out. She will feel trapped and as if you are holding her back. She will file a divorce and take the kids with her - back to germany.
The chances of this working out are extremely slim.

Heres the deal, don't expect much advice but I live with my parents almost smack dab in the center of this shitty neighborhood called Mars hill in indianapolis. I just recently became single after almost 2 years and I've been thinking about just up and moving to Florida, where I've got one friend I know online for a couple years now that would allow me to stay with them until I got a job and could support myself I've got almost a grand saved up to use for getting there and to have a little bit of spare money when I do get there, I guess the question is would that be enough to get me started? And what is it like living in Florida? how tough would it be to find a job and get started with my new life down there?

Do drugs.
Make bad decisions.

Be the next Florida Man.

I thought I finally got over him. It was clear that things cannot work out in the first place, specifically the fact that he's not able to like other men. But there are times when I still think of him, even getting into the dangerous territory of fantasizing everything about him. It seems pretty silly to be dreaming intimate scenarios of a person I never even shook hands with, but I guess imagination is a powerful thing. I haven't even spoken to him in a year and I still think of him every other day. I try to dull the pain by reminding myself that I chose the better path. In hindsight, he's pretty immature and doesn't have much going for him, not to mention plenty of other flaws he has, but some nights it gets too overbearing to even think about the negatives. I can still remember his face almost perfectly, even if it's objectively a 3/10 on a good day, but who am I to judge on that. I keep trying to tell myself that he's simply unable to be attracted to other men, but sometimes I can't help but delude myself into thinking that there were signs that I missed, that he's really had some interest in me at certain points over the previous year only to be met with my unwillingness to take advantage of it. I just want out of this cycle.

Unfortunately, I can't exactly look for a partner at this moment. I try to distract myself with videogames and whatnot, but they can only go so far. Thankfully, it's not as bad as it used to be when I truly didn't know whether he was gay or not, which resulted in countless anxiety-fueled nights and an endless train of thought revolving around him.

Maybe I'm just lonely, but I don't want to find a partner for that reason alone. I know I'm generally clingy so this isn't the first time I latched onto a straight guy. Anyone here willing to share some insight?

Just to clarity, I'm a male.

Every wonder what it's like to be the opposite sex? Lol ever try to live in someone elses life? I spent over 8 worthless months of my life doing pathedic social experiments online and live out in public. No no no... Not these stupid pranks you see on youtube. Serious shit. I have a small team i hired off craigslist 2 girls and 2 guys. I paid them on call for my experiments. I would love to tell you about the 25k i lost by employing theses people and go through every experiment. But... I'll just go down from the expirement that actually surprised me. #8 i paired the least attractive male participant with the two girls and i told them to go out in the crowd. His duty was to beg for friendship. The girls duty was to decline and appear to be grossed out by him. Random people from the surrounding area defended the girls to their fullest ability practically killing the male participants with aggression. My male participant wasn't hurt physically but was mentally hurt. But when i twist it around and put it as the girl begging for friendship with the two guys declining her invention the surrounding people came the girls aid offering dinner and their friendship. When this is done online it's amplified in aggression to the male participant. Looking into this its all about sex... They want sex. If the possibility of sex isn't involved nothing happens. I participated in the experiment. 3 guys 1 begging for friendship. No one did anything... Isn't humany worthless.

I chose visual arts as a highschool subject but im kind of regretting it. The theory part seems easy but the things we have to make kinda suck. I don't really have any interests so choosing subjects is kinda hard. What subjects do you guys recommend i do instead of visual arts or should i just stick with it.

How do I get over things? I was a fool, but I lost something of a novelty.

> Get something cool from a bar (party hat)
> Leave bar, go to university party thinking it was watching football game
> ended up being a nightclub (I was a fool)
> Already there, friends inside. Might as well join
> Could not leave my novelty with my coat, the coat guy was a faggot.
> Go inside club, meet friends.
> One of them drunk, takes hat and wears it (np)
> Skip
> drunk friend loses hat. No shit
> later on, found bartenders in club wearing hat.
> I try to nudge her asking for hat back but she ignores
> Skip
> Friend apologises for what hes done. I forgive him

Rather, it is my fault in the first place of giving it to him. I could have done many things to avoid
losing the hat. For example, not going to the club, putting hat inside my coat, holding it on for dear life, stealing back what's mine from the bitch...
The thing is that I was fine at first that I lost it, but now that I think about it I maybe feeling a bit of grief; theres better options for me to do
but I did not take it.
