Hello, we started meeting with this girl and we were supposed to take things slowly. We would stay after school and talk a lot, hug, kiss whatever. But lately we can't even find what to talk about and it seems really awkward (to her atleast). Of course I walk her to her bus stop and we haven't talked much. Before we say goodbye she says that we're too different and it's not going to work out. On the next day she wanted to stay just friends even though I really like her a lot. Does it seem like she feels sorry for me or something and doesn't want to go out with me anymore? I'm really confused because I really like her. What should I do? I feel really bad because I want things to work out with her.

It doesn't just "seem" that way. It's 100% obviously that way.

I'm beyond the whole >tfw no gf thing. I don't even want a girlfriend and I don't want any sex. I don't even masturbate anymore.

I still feel like shit. I waste every single day and I know that it's my fault. I want to go back to bed. How am I supposed to progress and achieve something, if I can't even get out of bed in the morning?

I'm so confused about everything.

So I'm throwing a party and I can't really estimate how much alcohol I should buy though. About 40 people are coming, so how much hard liquor and beer should I buy?
I know it will be expensive btw, don't bust my balls about that

A keg is about 165 glasses. A pony is half that. For that party I'd buy one of each, plus 4-5 bottles of hard stuff. Cheap vodka, mid-grade whiskey. Thats going to allow for 6 beers and around 2 shots per person. You might want to err on the side of caution and pick up more liquor, though, because you might end up with a lot of people just mixing drinks, especially women. DON'T FORGET THE MIXERS! Your call.
>>
>>16907261
Have people bring their own shit. You can provide a base amount, and just tell people if they have something in particular they wanna drink they should bring it.

My father's been starting to feel awful recently; he's 56 and has been complaining about stomach problems, his knee pops out once in a while, and he's always a total grump. Whenever I suggest he get his ass to a doctor, he just gets real upset with me and spends the next hour complaining about how he'd be out of work and we'll be living in the poorhouse.
What do I do /adv/? Do I just take him down to the doctor anyways? He's been my best pal for about 2 decades now, and I'd rather he be pissed at me than wind up horribly ill.

Tell him that you'd rather be in the poorhouse than lose a father to something that could be treated.

>dont want to be around people, feel mentally drained

Try resting your mind. Like take 10 minutes and forget about everything, your problems, your life, and just be there, even put on some nice ambient in the back.

We get worn out from everyday life, especially if its very banal and especially due to its cyclical nature. Break from the cycle and take a moment to relax and step back and just chill. Let the mind chill.

I don't know what I am supposed to do. I recently got out of a 5 year relationship and it was her that did the deed. It was completely out of no where. The thing is that I don't really feel anything about it. I just feel like something is missing. I don't feel sad. I am not mad. I just have this empty feeling inside. I have been taking citalopram for about 4 months now and I know it dulls all of my emotions. How do I fix this empty feeling? Should I get a new girlfriend? Should I just wait and stay single for a while? I don't know what I want.

Try stopping the drugs to let yourself feel the emotions?

Achieve some sort of spiritual catharsis somehow

Emptiness is not bad, it is the nature of things.

> I don't know what I want

So do nothing. Acting without nothing your clear intention can lead you to dangerous paths.

That isn't an option. I tried slowly coming off and it threw me into a deep depression with anxiety which is the reason I started taking anti depressants a long time ago.

Dont want to go against your doctor's orders.

But yeah, why are you wondering why you feel empty when you have no emotions?

First, change your goal from a weight goal to a body fat percentage goal. Cardio at least three times per week with goal of burning roughly 700 kcal per session (more if you can manage it). Build more muscle with load bearing exercise to increase your basal metabolic rate. I would suggest complex, functional, high-weight movements like deadlifts, high pulls, and snatches. Engage in some kind of intense interval training at least twice weekly. Figure out your daily caloric needs and aim to have around a 10-20% deficit below your Harris-Benedict "sedentary" number. Count your calories religiously.

Once you've been at it for six months or so, do a six week course of Ligandrol/LGD-4033 at 8mg scaling up to 10mg daily and Ostatine/MK-2866 at 20mg scaling up to 25mg daily. Use Nolvadex/Tamoxifen as your post cycle therapy. My first cycle I dropped 11% body fat but only 7 pounds/3kg.

Enjoy.

do I have autismo ?
it seems I can only ever function normally when I have 0 hobbies going on, otherwise when something peaked my interest I go overboard with it. Like I can't do anything "casually"

For instance:
>be in high school loving maths
>end up going to bed at 2 AM to make sure I can do all the book's exercise and understand accurately everything
...
>be at work
>discovering new programming language / technique that is motivating
>end up leaving work at 8PM and then programming on my own until 2 AM on this stuff
...
>fine new video game that I like
>end up playing it all evening for a week after work and looking up online stuff about it, skipping all the rest of the shit I had to do in the week

I mean, is it OCD ?
I feel like either I have to be normie as fuck and have no special interest, or either have a given interest but then it takes over the rest of my life

apply this dedication to you desired path, you will do well

And drop that whole normie label shit, it limits you in a box. It's fine to use on 4chan but never to your actual life.

I have a hard decision to make. I am currently a drummer in a punk band that I am semi-happy with. Thing is, I want to do my own stuff and start my own band/project after my surgery, which I will be the lead singer of.
So the question is. Do I help contribute to the band with my own ideas (lyrics for the most part) or do I do nothing and let the singer/bassist think of this shit? I am contributing to this band by stealing song structures and ideas from other bands.
I just wrote some lyrics down and I thought they where good (which never happens). I don't think the punk band will go anywhere. The other members are full of themselves and are white-trash, egotistical, and think we will get big off of pure luck or some shit.
Any thoughts?

Well, right now I'm not feeling too great, I've been in bed all day and I feel pretty... I feel not much at all. Yesterday, in the space of one afternoon, I:

>lost out on a job I have been preparing weeks for
>broke up with my girlfriend of a year
>found out a doctor has located a lump on my mother's throat

I feel rather shitty in myself, I'm also somewhat worried for my mother, but if anybody has any advice on what I could possibly do to get out of this mood that would be wonderful.

I usually like to clean the hell out of my car, go for a bike ride, or just get outside. Staying in the house for three days might seem attractive right now but just getting outside will help.

Do something that will level up your skill
Do something that will elevate your intellect and soul

Do something that is mindless fun just for the fuck of it

Boost yourself, then get ready for the next day refreshed and ready for whatever

Thank you guys. I've taken apart my bicycle and gave it a new paintjob, new stickers, and I'm going to rebuild it. The sanding and painting has been pretty therapeutic.

About 1.5 years ago I was approached by a small agency (2 people) that asked if I wanted to work for them part time, because I reported a bug in their product. I was open to that, because I was a student and needed the money and experience, and we had some email and Skype exchange, but they suddenly cut off contact with me for no reason. No response to follow-up emails and messages.

About a year ago I applied for a position as a student assistant at some local company that I knew from some tech meetups and through colleagues. I was declined, I moved on and later found something else. All good. Now, there's an upcoming event that I want to attend and I found out one of those agency guys is there too. I was surprised because these two companies/agencies are on opposite ends of the country, geographically, but they share the same interests.

How do you deal with shitty people that offered you "big" opportunities, but then suddenly ignored you, and you meet them again by random chance?

Hi 4Chan.. I'm a user from /b/ but they didn't have anything to say.. So I seek this board for help here's the story.
I woke up this morning at 7:50 to hear my mom scream and brother crying. My dad has been abusing her again after stopping for 3 years.. I panicked and got a bat in my room and I hit him in the side (not hard enough to do serious damage but enough to keep em down for a few minutes) I don't know if what I did was irrational.. God I just keep thinking of it.. So /adv/ what was I did wrong or right? It's now 9AM he got up 2 hours ago..

I don't think what you did was wrong. The bastard was abusing your mother and brother. I mean I think that I'd do the same thing if I was in your situation.

No I don't really know anything about this situation. I'm just feeling mad at abuse. Tough shit.

I'm writing a 3000 word report on how companies make money from a given piece of technology, using an example. I've chosen to do Video Game Consoles, comparing the Playstation and the Nintendo 64. My basic hypothesis is that the N64 was a superior console on paper but it lost out since the Playstation had a better library in the long term.

My issue is I'm not sure where to find articles and papers on the subject. Can anyone recommend some reasonably scholarly books or articles on the subject (on the two consoles, or the console market in general) to get me started?

>N64 was a superior console on paper
hardly, considering playstation's disks has vastly superior storage capacity to the N64's cartridges which led to many third party developers abandoning the system, like squaresoft for instance. That's how the PS1 got the better library, because it was a better console. Did you know that ff7 was originally being developed for the n64 but the project was abandoned when they realized they wouldn't be able to have a game that large on a cartridge. Then that ended up becoming THE ps1 game.

The N64 was also extensively delayed iirc.

I can't give you sources because your thesis is objectively wrong.

There is a place I know has no cameras or security system. I know the safe combo, and if they have changed it, the safe is small enough to just take. Wouldn't be more than 5k In there. I live pretty far away from this place. I could really use the money, and the owners are fucking loaded, so one set of deposits is nothing to them. Should I do? Or not do?

If you have to ask, especially if you have to ask 4chan of all places then no, it isn't worth it for you.

If you were the right kind of man for the job you'd allready have the cash in your pocket. You haven't though, because you actually care about this, which means it's going to be much to hard for you.

Imagine you have the safe right now, on your table at home. You've got it open, you go to lift out the cash - and your doorbell rings. What happens? If your answer is anything other than "cold chills up my spine and a feeling of overwhelming terror" your just lying to yourself. Over time that feeling will subside a bit, but it'll never go away. Every time someone comes to the door, when your phone rings from an unknown number, when there's a cop behind you on the road, there's all kinds of things are going to trigger that response.

Honestly, it's going to be more stressful than betting your grandmothers life on a horse race. If you were talking about a life changing sum of money that you could secure in a way that you could still access it when you got out of prison it might be worth it but for $5k it just isn't worth the hassle.
>>
>>16907049
Don't do it.
The benefit and the risk isn't worth the payoff.
Especially since you're hesitant to begin with, you'll probably have underlying guilt.

Do you absolutely need the money for something, or are you just like "hey maybe I could get some extra cash??"
>>
i'm guessing the reason you now the code is because you know the person.

unless you're an ultra autist who saw the exact code entered in the safe without them ever seeing your face, you'll be a prime suspect.

honestly you'd be much more successful at randomly mugging people.
