Break up. At 21 you have no control over yourself.

>>16906668
I should mention she cheated on me for about 2 months towards the end of our 10 month relationship. I wasn't able to confront her about it as she broke up with me over a text message and cut off communications with me soon there after.

How about forget all that faggotry and get your medic cert so you can stop being a useless asshole on 90% of your calls.

How do I stop being a negative person?
I am not satisfied with my life, and I am working to change it. I work REALLY fucking hard. I already have a "career" read: shitass day job that I could have done in middle school but pays more than most other careers. I already work out 3-4 times a week. I can cook for myself, clean for myself, handle my own finances, etc. I'm a self-sufficient, in shape, dude with a career. I have a satisfying choice of women.
But I am not happy. I grow more irritable every day that I live this life that I've built for myself because it's utterly unfulfilling. I get on here often to dispense advice because I like helping people learn from my mistakes. I just dumped my girlfriend. Afterward, I read a few articles about "negative people" and perfectionists... it's me.
I feel like I've always been this way - unsatisfied with my life because most people seem to hate who I actually am inside. I like to talk.. A lot. My ex used to bitch at me for talking too much. I'm bisexual. That one kills a bunch of people. I turn to hard drugs because they're some of the only things I get pleasure from anymore.
I don't want to be in pain anymore. But if I collapse the charade, I collapse my entire life. If my work knew about the drugs or really anything about me, I'd be fired instantly. It's like I'm two different people - publicly excelling the way every mom wants but privately hating everything.
How do I stop this before I go postal.

>If my work knew about the drugs
That explains it anon. Legal highs?
Or are you sensible and only smoke weed but call that a drug habit?
Start taking classes in uni or college again on a new topic like Philosophy or Psychology, who gives a shit
Don't actually use the degree, but learn something new for the shits and giggles
If you're not constantly experiencing something new, you're flushing your life down the toilet since any "same" experiences all blend together into one grey uninteresting mess
I would've suggested travelling, but it doesn't do anything for me. But you could try that, idk
>>
>>16906653
>drugs
Coke, molly, shrooms, lucy, opiates (but these make me throw up so I stay away)... ummmm.... I want to find some DMT and GHB. No meth or injectable heroin thought until I want to be truly addicted and die. OH and yes I smoke weed. I don't drink. Fuck alcohol.
>Philosophy
Already have a bachelor's in it.
>But you could try that, idk
Lived in England, Japan, and 6 US States. Traveled to Costa Rica, Israel, France, Germany, and Wales. I enjoy traveling but my job doesn't really permit it anymore unless I use up my vacation time, which I usually reserve for my family and a bit for me personally when I can't fucking handle my job anymore.
>If you're not constantly experiencing something new, you're flushing your life down the toilet since any "same" experiences all blend together into one grey uninteresting mess
I totally agree, but that type of adventure is only encouraged within boundaries as you get older. I've experienced a lot so far; it's hard to find new "highs." And... honestly... most people I've met are pretty shit. Not that I dislike them... but objectively they're not that bright, or not that interesting, or totally put off by my many escapades like being bi or liking drugs.
I actually try to not chase the 'high' anymore. if you chase the high... you end up in a bad place.

I'm scared I might have diabetes. I keep eating junk food and 4000 calories in snacks. After I eat I feel really sick. I also feel constantly anxious like I can't breathe. I don't have a doctor so I can't get tested. How bad is diabetes?

Last year I used the money I got from wedding gifts to visit my homeland as part of my honeymoon and so my wife could finally meet my family. We had stayed in my parent's house where I had grown up and while it was very nice, things had drastically changed in the last five years since I had last visited.
My grandpa had passed away, I couldnt attend the funeral. His wife now suffers heavy Alzheimers so it took a few days to convince her I wasn't her soon (I look exactly like my dad). A very dear family pet was also gone. A lot of my first cousins are living abroad so I couldnt get to see all of them. The area outside my parent's condo building where I used to play a lot with the neighborhood kids has changed drastically too..
But I think what killed me the most was that the house I grew up in also didn't very much feel the same. My parents had been trying to empty it out so they could either sell it or rent it, but even though it still contained most of the furniture I grew up with, including the wooden cabinet where they hid pokemon red version before gifting it to me and my brother on xmas in the year that it came out, also the bunkbed my bro and I slept in was still there, but the whole place just felt very haunting to me. The bathroom was drastically redone too. I think the fact that my hometown was very windy also didn't help, making the windows rattle and stuff. But what made it worse was that the ceiling of the condo was getting moldy, due to the upper condo being left abandoned with the windows open all year round. I just want my parents to sell the damn place.
So as you can see, my homecountry means a lot to me. Seeing all those drastic changes and how old my family had grown I think killed me a little inside. This, I think has affected my at a deeper level than I thought where as the vast majority of my dreams since I came back take place in my hometown or with the people I reunited with. I think I'm more intrigued than I am worried.
Your thoughts?

Brotha, this is life.
People you know and love are going to pass, places you have been to or lived in are going to change. 10 years ago we didn't have a clue how different our lives would be now, and 10 years from now; it's going to be even more drastic.
It's ok to reminisce the past, but you can not let it ruin 'today'. Look towards the future, and how you can make it better.
I lost both my parents 10 days after I turned 19 years old, it was so unbearable. Two years later, I feel that time has helped me heal and cope with life without them, and deal with the change.
You're gonna be alright, brotha.

work like a dog from the start, and don't get at all down about most of everything not working
also, understand what you need for a paper and work towards that.i ended up with a few results which were fine results, but they weren't enough to make a paper from so in the end they were fuck all good to me
maybe try writing the lit review early on, you never realise how much you have overratted your expertise in the field until you start writing that. forces you to really know your stuff.

Not living together yet, but would like some ideas to spice things up a bit some that don't involve spending (too much money) and some that do

If you need that, you're definitely in the wrong relationship
>>
>>16906475
You're in the wrong relationship if you want to spice things up in the bedroom? Explain yourself.
Also, OP, what are you guys into?
>>
What are both of your interests? Anything you guys always wanted to try but never have? A lot of out door activities are free. If you're into music, there's always new bands playing in bars somewhere in town.

I've made it a habit since my prepubescent discovery, and I'm now entering adulthood with this chain around my ankle. I can barely make it a few days without crawling back to pornography and I fear it greatly inhibits my creative drive.

Stop watching porn and masturbating. Its not that hard. I havent fapped since december.
>>
>>16906405
Congratulations.
I have trouble convincing myself that a lack of masturbation is more rewarding than the instant gratification it provides.

fapping helps prevent prostate cancer. its perfectly natural.
How do you curb anxiety?
How do you make yourself feel warm and safe when there's no reason of any kind to be scared or worried in the first place?

Practice deep breathing.
When you're not breathing deep into your abdomen, you're not getting enough oxygen, which makes you neurotic.

I should've added "no jobs", since my country's economy is garbage rn
>>
>>16906334
I'm in the same boat man. 22, no degree, in music but it's so far fucking impossible to make money off of it, losing motivation, and just generally feel like I'm not good enough at anything to make a full time career.
If nothing else take comfort in knowing you're not alone. Bumping because I'd like some help too
>>
>>16906334
Learn a skilled trade such as a mechanic, welder, electrician, plumber, or construction worker. These jobs are always in demand no matter what the economy is like.
Also, you fail because you only look for the easy, lazy path in life. Hard work is good

So /adv/ I have this story to tell and I wanna hear some opinions. Last night there was some party, drinking games and everything and some cute girl had to kiss every guy in the room for extra points, including me. She's single, by the way. Now after the kiss it's like I'm obsessed, I keep thinking about her. Thinking about her as in I wanna try hooking up or fucking her, I don't know. I've been kissed by other girls at drinking games before, but this feels like it should go on further than just a simple kiss. What should I do?
Pic unrelated.

You're reading too much into this. It was a drunken moment of passion and she probably doesn't even remember your face.
I mean, that doesn't mean it's out of the realm of possibility, but this isn't a good start to things, her kissing every guy in the room. I'd try to think about her less.
>>
>>16906273
I usually overthink things, so maybe you are right.
>>
>>16906273
Oh and also she surely remembers my face, we belong in the same frat and college.

my friends just had a baby boy, and they decided not to get it circumcised. Why wouldn't they do it? Circumcised penises are better in every way.

>>16905832
Exhibit A. In many cases it mangles the penis and removes functions like the gliding motion, there's the issue of leaving enough skin to masturbate and the fact that keratinisation of the glans takes place.
There is literally no ways a circumcised penis is better, thats like saying removing someone's eyelids is beneficial. You are buying into the hype.

>Why wouldn't they do it?
Because they don't want to and people have different opinions, not everyone thinks mutilating the genitals of their children is a good idea.

My friends and I made plans to do something pretty time consuming and ultimately not that exciting for next weekend, but we made these plans nearly two months ago when we were drunk.
Now I want to drop the plans and watch Daredevil by myself all weekend, but I know they'll be disappointed if I back out. What should I do?

Go anyway you autist. This is a chance to build memories and have experiences you can only do once.
Daredevil will still be there.

Maybe you'll change your tune once you hear what they want to do...
They want to play the entirety of Ocarina of Time all the way through in one playthrough, switching out in shifts to complete it. We're not even really heavy videogame players, so I don't know where the idea came from, but they're really excited about it still. I feel like staying up for 16 hours or whatever after a workday and screwing up my sleep schedule for my weekend seems stupid.

16 hours on Ocarina? What are you guys being completionist fags or something? Game take 8 hours tops.
My point remains. Hanging out with your buddies, doing fuck all but talking, bullshitting and drinking is the thing I miss from my younger days more than anything.
If you get tired or bored, there's no reason you can't make up some excuse to leave early. Or just be honest and say. Hey guys, it's been a good time, but I'm tired and I've got some shit get done and leave about the time you guys get the hookshot.
Either way, daredevil is digital information. It'll be around for fucking ever. The opportunity to hang and chill with your bros is fleeting.
I need help with a girl who doesn't like me. She doesn't look at me or touch anything I touch but I like her. What do I do? I think she's been telling lies about me too. She does not want anything to do with me.

TL; DR
I've asked this before, but how do people forget anything that they lived through, if not by direct impact to brain cells/membrane..?(no drugs/alcohol/an hero, that shits stupid)
I know hot to relatively be social and amusing, just act slightly ignorant... But I can't keep carrying this conviction, one which I know for a fact I cannot fix...
>>
>>16906137
How to*
...
I also keep making up scenarios, in which I think of how I could it have been if I were not so stupid.
On anything, but they usually end up with me thinking of her..
>It's been 3 years
forgot to add that..
Last suggestion was meet new people, I did. Didn't really help since I don't make an effort of maintaing contact nor relevancy..
>be annoying
Forgot that too..
>>
>>16906136
Just gonna let this one be ignored to oblivion I guess.. Kek asking 4chan advise was a smart idea..
I need to cease to exist.
