I live about 100 miles south from my friends as I go to university and I am miserable. I have no friends where I am and often spend days in my room alone, hardly eating. I am not doing so well with a 3.0GPA in Economics, a subject that I am now realizing will not get me a job, and I cannot get a part time job because it is a very small town (I have a lot of experience as a waiter).

I'm a junior now, but I am honestly killing myself here. This is not a healthy environment and I feel like this is killing me. I am highly considering moving back into the area where I have established a life and taking a minor in Economics while I major in something that might actually provide a decent life for me.

Am I hyperventilating, or are my concerns real here?

Do that, then. Why not? You've only told us positives to that plan, no negatives.

I'd have wasted a lot of time and effort at this school getting my degree here; by far the biggest issue for me. There will be wasted classes, and thus wasted money and time.

I'm not having a good day, /adv/.

I was diagnosed with bowel cancer a while back and the surgeries only stopped last year.
The shit thing is, having studied human biochemistry at uni, I know my risk for secondary, tertiary, quaternary, etc. cancers is decently above-average now. A secondary cancer is all but certain.

I've been feeling pretty down about it lately for some reason, and today it hit me that this was just the fucking tutorial. The next one I get is going to be in the middle of a career, and the one after that will be even further along in that career. It was fucking hard enough dealing with bowel cancer - one of the easiest cancers to treat - during university. I'm really not feeling great about having to deal with a harder one when I have even more to lose.

Tl;dr things are okay now, but I know they won't be later.

I neglected to mention I was 21 at the initial diagnosis. I'd wager I'll be lucky to make it to 50.

I just can't even right now, I'm not sure if that qualifies as asking for advice or not.

Please don't delete this thread.

I feel kinda weird for replying to this as I feel like I have nothing to say about these matters, having not experienced cancer and all... It may sound stupid, but the only (and I guess best non-medical) advice I can give you is to 'hang on' and don't give up!

I probably don't have to tell you, but cancer is a constant battle, if you don't fight the cancer, it will fight you and you will lose. But if you resist it, you might be able to live your while and get some nice things out of it.

I can give you the example of my grandma:
She was like 80 when my mom discovered she had cancer (there was a huge tumor erupting from her belly). After some scans they found out it was pretty much all over so it was hard to say where it started. Doctors estimated she had been suffering some form of cancer for at least 20 years. Yes... 20 fucking years. Nobody in the family knew she had this, she never spoke about it or showed any kind of pain to anyone. After they found out they started chemo/radiation therapy but of course it was basically useless... the only thing they could do was extend her life. So this went on for a year or 2 and after that she was kinda too weak to continue and returned home. It was evident she would die soon, so one night when she felt extremely bad we all gathered to my grandparents' home. All her children were there, like exchanging their last words, sharing good moments, saying hopeful things. everybody was there, except for my uncle, who was in Romania at the time.

apparently her wish to see everybody before she died was so strong that she managed to survive that night. She even lived on for another half year, until EVERYBODY in the family could be with her and say goodbye. So eventualyl she died in a care-home with her whole family besides her. It's probably the most romantic death I have ever experienced.

So, sorry for the long story... now my comment is too long, get ready for the second one :P
>>
>>16941588
so... my point is:

Set some goals in your life, some things you want/have to do and just go for them. Don't let your health/disease get into your way. Resist it even though it is harsh and get some support (your family/friends) if you feel like you need it.

If you start losing hope/giving up it will get you, so please don't. Now you even don't know what will happen, cherish life as long as you can man! If you let the cancer/fear of cancer rule your life, it will get you. So never give up!

I hope these words helped you a bit. Anyway good luck in your life and I hope you will remain healthy :).

It's Been a year and a half, and I can't do this anymore.

All I want is for her to initiate sex. Just for once, actually show some interest in doing anything sexual, and be the antagonist.

I've talked to her about it for months, and all she does is act like I'm being an asshole. She never addresses the matter, just tells me I'm being rude, or mean, or that I "don't give her a chance."

I've worded it politely, bluntly, given her an hour, all day, all week, 6 months and still, I basically have to convince her to have sex. What the fuck is the problem here?

She says she enjoys it alot when we do have it, we used to have it a lot more often, but as a result of me not engaging (to give her a chance to do it first,) we don't do it nearly as often.

On top of this she's recently moved back in with her parents, so I only get 1-3 days a week to have sex... and if I don't force it upon us, it simply would never happen.

Even if I straight up ask her "can you be the one to start something later?" She'll make a deal out of it.. and I might get a predictably obvious forced attempt at a blowjob before we go to bed.

By predictably obvious forced attempt, I mean similar to what you'd expect from a child when you say "I'm not gonna ask you again, finish your broccoli" and they pick at it for 5 minutes then decide to miserably take a nibble, then glare at you.

Doesn't exactly put me in the mood, and I'm at a loss. Pic related: tfw I try to address the issue.

Small problem. Ex keeps popping up in my dreams, when I intent to forget about her. Been 2 years since we broke up after a 3 year relationahip. Have new girlfriend for 1.5 years. I'm happy.

Why do I keep thinking about her. I cut cintact long ago but I still wonder how she's doing. Is it okay for me to ask her some time to answer the question coming up every time, or should I surpress it and ignore the thoughts and dreams?

Anyone care to give some advice? It's become an annoyance and I can't depend on my own judgement right now, i'm afraid I'll choose to meet uo with her to see how she's doing when I probably shouldn't.

Ya, I would. To save your own sanity. I know the feeling, dated a suicidal girl in highschool, all 4 years. Been with my current girlfriend for 5 years now, but it took awhile for me to not worry about her because of her state of mind.
I would tell your current girlfriend that you plan on talking to ex to clear somebody the air, just to be safe. Woman are fucking OK INSANE when their emotions are in jeopardy. And if she freaks out, the bitch doesn't really love you or understand what your going through

>Is touching your arm when she laughs flirting?

There are probably some cultural differences when it comes to this but where I live touch is something very intimate and generally only shared by couples and close relatives. So I would say that she was showing some clear signs of affection towards you.

The fact that you're saying that he's in love with her makes it sound like some sort of childish teenage love triangle.
You'r friend is not in love with her, he has simply developed a crush towards her and finds her very attractive because of this.
To actually be in love with someone you'd need to really know them on a lot more intimate level.

But do understand that stuff like this can break even the strongest friendships, if you start dating the girl your friend might turn very bitter towards you for stealing his girl even if he had no chances with her to begin with. It's probably best to have some man to man talk with him before proceeding further with her if you are interested in her and value your friendship.

My apartment building is being inspected by the city of Los Angeles in about a month. Tomorrow, the landlords are coming in to do a pre-inspection. They told us on friday. My roommate's boyfriend keeps his snake in our apartment and we're not allowed to have pets. Unfortunately they went out of town for the weekend, and despite my roommate's boyfriend telling me someone was going to come to take the snake, no one has. It's almost 2am and they're supposed to come anytime between 9am and 3:30pm. I need to get rid of this snake but I don't know where I can take him. I thought of hiding him in a closet under some dirty laundry but I'm not certain whether or not they'll look there.

What do?

why not?try to figure what's not going well in your conversations and fix it.
>i know she likes me
then you should be more confident and make a move. if you're hesitant the girl will probably lose interest soon.

Become alpha

a lot of virgins around here would kill to be texting a girl daily

wtf do you mean "next date must take it to the next level" this is why you fail. go fap if you think your balls are going to assplode.

forget that friendzone shit. real relationships require friendship. if you can't be her friend, and you just want to use her, go get a hooker instead

There's a lot of videos with Chinese audio and subtitles on the net. You might even find some with English audio.
A good source for such content is Tudou but YouTube might also work.

For content of varying nature news sites like Xinhua have bilingual articles.
If you're of the weebish inclination, there are sites like dm5 that might cater to your tastes.

With regards to dictionaries, MDBG might do the job.

For learning characters try spaced repetition software like Anki.
>>
>>16941292
Look up for the book "Remembering the Hanzi" which introduces the "Heisig method" for learning how to remember complex characters.
It's a great and easy way to memorize how to identify and remember complex Chinese and Japanese characters very quickly.

Trying to memorize the characters through repetition just doesn't work for most of us so the method really helps.
However do understand that learning how to identify and remember character doesn't that you'll learn to read it it just means that you'll at least have a hell of a lot easier time assigning meanings to the characters and learning the actual language when you already know most of the characters.

You can probably download the book off somewhere for free, but it's not all that expensive either.
Anki is a great flash card software to be used with the method
use pen and paper so you'll learn how to write the characters as well.
>>
>>16941292
I don't know. I learned a lot of Spanish in Duolingo but as far as I am concerned Chinese is not available in Duolingo.

Alright guys, so I posted a thread like this a year or so ago and it got mixed answers so I'm trying again.

I would like to sleep more. Particularly, I would like to be asleep almost all the time that I am not required to attend work or college. My plan would be this:

For the rest of the semester, I only need to be awake between 6am-3pm on weekdays. After that, I have no obligations until the next day. On Saturdays and Sundays I only need to be awake from 6am-noon, maybe 1pm. I can manage to get exercise in the times I've alloted as well, or give myself more time on the weekend.

My question is, can this work? I have a hard enough time sleeping as it is. I thought about just using ZZZquil all the time, but I'm not sure the health risks.

You want the truth? Life sucks and it's legitimately not going to get better for me until about September. I don't want to kill myself, I just don't want to be active where I don't have to be. Just doing work and school and sleeping outside of those would be fine.

So next Monday I can either start a job as a "logistics coordinator," which essentially amounts to answering emails in a cubicle all day. This would be through a temp agency (contract to hire) and for $16/hr.

Or I can become a cars salesman. I never really considered sales before, but my buddy who works at the local Honda dealership told me i would make bank over there. He's shown me various commission checks (is the last two weeks he made $2200) and claims to have made $40,000 in the past 6 months. It's for commission only though, so no base salary. That's something I've never done before so it makes me a bit uneasy -- I need to pay rent and such so what if i make no money?

$16 an hour is more money than I've ever made (by a dollar) but I hate cubicle work. Maybe office work in general. Nothing makes me feel more like a robot than a lifeless environment like that. I'm a social fun-loving kind of guy so I think I'd enjoy sales much more. So I'm leaning towards car salesman... But it's certainly more risky but by and large I think I'd have much more fun there.

What do you think I should do, even though I've almost certainly made up my mind... Anyone have any sales horror stories? Working for just commission? Is it stressful? Does it make you want to hang yourself in the bathroom with a makeshift noose you crafted from your business casual slacks? Because that's what my last office job (which was essentially glorified data entry) made me want to do.

Don't be a car salesman. Most of your pay is commission based and it's pretty cut-throat. Work isn't meant to be fun or liked. Take the stable job that pays well and is relaxing and easy as hell
>>
>>16941281
>Commission only

Noooooooooooooo. Unless you are really confident in selling to people and can handle potentially swindling people(even the most honest car salesman is still trying to fuck you a bit), you'll hate it AND you won't make any money.

Take the cubicle job.
>>
>>16941281
The cubicle job will destroy your soul. You'll have some officious twat breathing down your neck all the time, timing how long it takes you to go to the toilet, and all sorts of other stupid shit. It'll be an intense psychological sweatshop. For the sake of your sanity, do not do this. Don't even consider it.

If selling cars isn't something you can do then turn them both down.

But by asking this question you have demonstrated that you are not secure and confident in it.

It's only cringy if you're up in people's faces about liking it, if you dress in anime/vidya clothes, play your portables in public, etc. In short, keep it to yourself, unless you're with other people who also like it. At a convention, you'd be more out of place if you didn't, for example.

If you really think you're about to hurt someone, including yourself, then you need to go to the emergency room and tell them exactly what you told us.

Assuming it's not quite THAT urgent, then my first advice is to avoid visiting your ex-girlfriend. Right now, you can't handle it. I don't think she'd be able to handle it either, if she knew.

My second advice is to start getting rid of mementos, physical and digital. Ordinarily I tell people to take mementos they can't bear to part with, put them in a box, and put the box somewhere safe but out of sight. But to be perfectly frank, you sound like you need something more radical. Get rid of EVERYTHING, no matter how much it hurts. Give back things you borrowed, donate what can be salvaged, and throw the rest away. Delete any and all digital files -yes, even those- and sledgehammer the drives if you think you might undelete things. Do this with mementos all of your previous exes as well.

The reason for this is simple: you hurt because you're obsessing. You need to make your headspace and environment into a place where it is possible to think about things that are not your ex.

Once you've done this, my third piece of advice is to flood your brain with new information. Everyone has a backlog of things they thought would be neat to do, but never got around to learning how. It is time to take something off of that list. I do not recommend using artistic pursuits for this purpose -they backfire way too easily- but anything else will do.

And lastly, once you've started this new interest, seek professional help. Order matters: right now you sound like you really could hurt someone, and that has consequences. My advice is not a guaranteed cure, but it is my hope that it could at least pull you back from the brink. If that doesn't work, then you should see someone anyway, tell them what you told us, and brace for impact. I am sorry.

But one way or another, you DO need help.
