OK anons, how can a girl win a guy over? I get that she ought to be fit and cute and sexy, but how should she ask, what character traits, behaviours should she have in order to make a guy fall in love with her even deeper? Like what are some things a girl can do enamour a lad and capture his hear? (besides sex, that is)

I have had quite a few encounters with women, and they all turned out to be sexually very submissive. The problem is, that I really don't enjoy dominating that much, I rather be submissive myself.
Adv, do you know how to find dominant women or how to tell whether a girl will be dominant sexually?

Bitter, jaded, drunk guy here.

Long story short, I'm a very tall guy. 6'7" and girls are really put off by it. There is a look of abject horror and terror that they get when they look at me. The only way I can approach women without them ignoring me straight away is by sitting down and talking to them before I stand up. When it comes to charisma with talking to people, I can to pretty damn well for first impressions, but when I approach people, I'm "creepy" and "intimidating". Some of my good female friends have said this and then once they get to know me I'm a "very nice guy".

So my question is, being unattractively tall, how should I approach women in club type scenarios or how can I improve my appearance besides chopping my knees off? I don't wear fedoras nor am I fat, in fact I'm quite thin.

Also, because I'm generous and kind and all that. I'll give a free video game of your choice (within reason) to the person with the best advice/the person that makes me less jaded in the next hour. I'll also answer any reasonable questions.

I'm a girl who wants to do online dating. Do men like it if deemphasize my job and emphasize my hobbies?

Academically, I do computational biology, but it makes for very boring photos, ie, me sitting at a desk. But do men even care that I want a career as a scientist?

I feel weird making my profile pictures all about my hobbies. Would men like this more?

I am 21 and younger brother is 12. I often feel like I am not up to the task, that I am not doing enough. I get along with him pretty well, we play legos together, karting, bring him to movies, help with his homework but still...I feel absent. I want to teach him how to be a man because I often felt weak and emasculated when I was younger.

He often watches TV and because of me, he plays video games (I think it's a bad hobby) and he recently starts playing even more with some of his friends on skype.

He is very good at school, plays in a hockey team but is very childish and teachers hate him with a passion.

How can I be a better role model? What should I do with him (activities, hobbies...)? What should I teach him?

>Have a group of friends since high school
>One friend starts to have consistently negative behavioral issues
>Becomes confrontational to the point I have to warn people about him before introducing
>This confrontational friend tells me that he's bored of the group, slanders everyone in the group, and tries to persuade me to leave
>I make the executive decision to tell everyone, he's voted off the island
>I spend a year and a half feeling guilty and spending time away from everyone
>Meet very occasionally (less that 1 time a year)
>Show up at a meeting tonight, and confrontational friend is there, idk who invited him
>He makes a threat on my life, and brandishes a gun

Should I just leave all of my friends behind at this point?

As my parents said, "Nobody goes to work because they enjoy it. They have to go to work though as they have bills to pay. How many people actually enjoy working at McDonalds? If they got to leave, they would all leave."

I guess most people who disagree with me are probably minors who have never been to work and are romanticising a certain job too much or adults who are new to a job so the excitement still hasn't worn off and they haven't had enough time to learn about the workplace politics that already exists.

I had a retail job and it was terrible. My parents said, "See? Now you know that going to work is not fun".

ever since day one of meeting my boyfriend, my gut kept telling me to run away and that something very bad is about to happen.

some info that set me off
>28 y/o gangster looking guy
>very negative, complains about something everyday (he has depression and anxiety)
>easily upset and angered and stressed
>pot-head, alcoholic, uses cocaine too (dunno how often)
>gets into fights and even threatens to beat people up
>raised in foster care; dad is gone, mom is a crack addict he no longer keeps contact with
>last gf died in a car crash 3 years ago
>lives in the ghettos with his brother (who looks like an even scarier gangster, and been to jail a few times for w/e reason) and his brother's wife (who seems normal, if not a bit intimidating)

it started with him complaining about his life to me, and me saying stuff like "i'm sorry, that sucks." then one day he confessed he was in love with me while in hysterics like and i felt like i couldn't reject him. basically, i was on my best behavior since; too scared to upset him and get my shit fucked up, or him hurting himself... hoping he'll get bored of me and leave. i developed feelings for him too, but i still figured if he ever broke up with me, it'd be for the best.

surprisingly, he turned around for the better; he became much more positive and happy, started on better living habits, and just seems a lot more stable emotionally. all on his own, without me asking him to change anything.

while i'm very happy and proud of him, he keeps mentioning things like "the long term" and "growing old together" and even talks about kids and stuff.

the thing is, i don't know if i can commit to this man, but he really did turn around his habits and attitude. i still have that gut feeling that gives me a bad feeling though. what should i do?
