try to make it a threeway. if that doesn't work, go for the second girl, or no girl.

generally speaking going for the girl who left you for someone else is just going to lead to them doing it again when they meet ANOTHER osmeone better.

>>16852332
I'd be very wary here fampai. I'd immediately suspect they want to kill me and fuck the body.

Involve a fourth party and see what shit they pull. Also change your locks.

I'd love a 3 way but they both hate eachother

>>16852305
So here is why im lost
>My ex and I clearly want to be back with each other?
>But we are not on the same page?

I'm going to get a hump reduction this year too I think

What are you doing?

>>16852339
Ya my nose was a hump, and my chin is a little recessed.

Michael.

>>16852280
What's your Chinese name?

>>16852280
Mark.
Matthew.

Honestly senpai I'd go with John. Best name in the whole bible.

You're locking up because you think that you need something specific to talk to about women. Yeah a lot of them have different interests but it's no different than talking to a guy who likes sports when you like vidya. You just have to find a common interest and then you're all set.

>>16852269
Ask some out. Spend time either some alone. Do your best.

It's like calc senpai you gotta do it, learning it isn't enough.

>>16852282
How do I get them to like me (as a person). How do I not appear as a someone girls would not like to befriend. I have basically no female friends.

>>16852251
This happens to me too sometimes. Whenever I start to feel this way, I find her facebook page and read all the stupid shit she posts, then I remember why her being out of my life is so great. I also sometimes go through her images on facebook and masturbate to them.

>>16852266
Well i don't even have to remind myself why having her out of my life is good. Thing is i am in this i'm-out-but-not-really stage, which pisses me off. Thing is i have those ups and downs. The same day i can feel great whenever i'm at uni or in my part-time job, but after that i feel drained and get hit with nostalgia. It's like one part of me is fine and ready to roll, but the other part wants to hold on to it in fear of losing something and not getting anything new.

Don't feel guilty. You are just trying to make both your situations better. When he returns to uni will he be spending more time there or at work? Is his job just a job or something that is in his potential career field once he graduates?

>>16852273
Its a really important job for him, it's in his field for a huge company and this has successfully launched his career. He will only be doing the job until this time next year.

The other option is for me to rent out the property I buy for 6 months (by the time I buy, settle, and find a tenant willing to sign on a 6 month lease I'm guessing it would be about a year) and move in after his internship, but I really would prefer to move in asap

>>16852247

how long is this intern year going to be? could you put off moving for that long?

What you're experiencing, OP, is called "l'espirit de l'escalier", or "staircase wit".

I know that practice helps with quick-wittedness, from personal experience, but if anyone has any other tips I would love to hear them.

Practice. Just listen to people talk and always consider yourself an opponent. Usually easier to start with TV or radio because they don't require additional participation other than listening and arguing. I don't recommend you do it too much or you might get stuck thinking critically like me. But I don't have problems with counter arguments unless I'm wrong.

It's also important to realize what kind of argument you're in. Is the other person well meaning and looking for truth in the situation or are they just interested in 'winning'. Of they're just after 'winning' then generally there's more rhetoric than actual valid arguments.
Going around 4chan and picking fights isn't too bad. /r9k/ tends to be an easy target /pol/ points to statistics they haven't fully understood usually or its selection bias. But arguing here on /adv/ is pretty good. Just don't care about what you're arguing for. It's pointless to care about that. Any argument is gonna be a constructive for everyone. Either because they get better at arguing or because they think more about what they're arguing about, and are more likely to be correct just because of that.

It's also worth considering just what you've found that's wrong. I suggest write it down and attempt to break down those arguments. Because when you can do that you're more resilient to counter arguments to your counter arguments. Usually you can find general mistakes but if you have the right attitude to all this you will just learn to intuitively see you and others mistakes.

>>16852264
I have a lot of staircase wit situations. But I don't have debate problems. Really it's probably just more about focus, wit can come quite easy if that's where your focus is.

>>16852240
You really want to just examine arguments in a vacuum and practise spotting flaws. Go lurk on pol.

I would read books though.

I read a lot and as I do I find myself better able to insert measured but tasteless jokes into conversation at great speed. That's really the essence of wit.

as a person with oily skin, i can tell you that unfortunately that will never really go away. you can help it not be so bad during the day by using blotting sheets.
otherwise, you're going to have to delve into the wonderful wide world of skin care. wash your face twice a day and moisturize after every wash, exfoliate or use a face mask 2-3 times a week, and use a brightening eye cream/serum to help with the under eyes. i've heard that in some cases, over moisturizing your face will help it become naturally less oily over a period of time. if you'd like to try that, use a hydrating serum or oil blend on your face after you wash and before you moisturize.
if you want product recommendations, i can give them but i'll need to know more of your specific skincare goals and budget first.

>>16852236
That picture looks like Brent Spiner crossed with Shia LaBeef.

>>16852283
Not OP but my budget is unlimited. Willing to shell out anything. And how to get rid of permanent tan or whatever it is called. I am a brown guy who could have pretty much passed as yellow-whitesh a few years ago. My body is a completely different tone than my face. Sun screen didn't help for some reason

What do you do during those fits, and where do you have them?

I think it'd be a result of the disease. Who diagnosed you, and are you taking medication? Recreational drugs?

>>16852297

I yell and slam doors, kick stuff like the wall.

And I noticed how I embarrassingly spilled my guts to a few people over the years due to a lack of social skills and lack of support structure. I was lucky to have a roof over my head and food, but never had the other stuff as I grew, not to say my parents didn't try what they thought was best. I was meant to go to Uni and be successful, not be a nut case. So here I am.

What the fuck do I do with my life? I'm worried the therapy and meds wont work in the end, that I'll isolate myself again (its MUCH easier for me this way) but a part of me wants to go on, fight this, because it seems theres hope for a fulfilling life. That I won't have to use my research as a means of self validation and meaning, and that I could have close friends and other enjoyable dreams. Guess I'm scared? Don't know anymore.

I think your "mate" might secretly want to "mate" with you. Make sure to liberally embarrass him at the party.

>>16852218
Yeah, he said it was gay. I'm perfectly comfortable with my sexuality knowing I'm straight so saw no problem. What a cunt.

>>16852209

Tell your friend he's acting like a woman.

"OMG, SHE'S WEARIN' THE SAME OUTFIT AS ME, hisss! I'mma bout to slap his bitch-ass silly".

Tell you're friend either go all the way with being a woman, and to suck your dick, or to fuck off with that shit.

Propecia

I left it for 8 months before taking it and I'm really thin up top now and there's no way of getting it back except hoping for a stem cell cure to be discovered in 10 years or something... I refuse to interact with the outside world any more than necessary until that happens

This is how Steve Jobs must have felt about putting off cancer treatment

>>16852203
Shave family. You can't lose what you don't have.

Cut your losses.

>>16852375
Doesn't stop everyone from laughing at you though, just intensifies it

play dota 2

Grow old, and realize there are only three things which really matter in life:

Money, Liquor and Women.

For how long have you played this game? Does anyone else have access to the computer, or knows your gaming habit? How much do you play it? Is it purely escapism from a shitty life?

what language?

>>16852186
English

>>16852186
C, sorry.
