/adv/isors please help. There must be a better way!

I used to be an avid gamer but since I got jobs, I don't do anything but rest/sleep when I come home. My boyfriend is sad. I'm sad. We had many great memories together. I don't want to do anything anymore because of my after-work fatigue levels.

If only I could lay in my bed after work and have my laptop too, without it crushing my bladder or legs, or being forced to stay in the same position for hours without moving. It's pretty light but pretty wide, so it pretty much covers my whole abdomen wherever I put it, and gets painful after a while.

If only there was some table I could use in bed, elevating the laptop over me!

This thread was created with a kind of joking tone. I know such laptop tables exist but where the hell do I buy them, and who/what can I trust?

This is a big purchase for me so I want it to last and be meaningful. On a budget so nothing over $100 pls
>>
>>16782868
I'm sure there are tables/trays that you can buy (which are normally used for food) at places like target or definitely online. Also, my laptop is 17'' and almost 10 pounds and I use it in bed no problem, idk what your problem is.
>>
>>16782877
Mine is 17" across too. I'm just a weak girl I guess. Not a lot I can do to change that part. You should see what I do for work. It shouldn't make the average person fatigued as hell. So I figured I'm just weak. That's that.


Anyway do you think this is worth it? It's cheap as hell http://www.amazon.com/Songmics-Portable-Foldable-Breakfast-Serving/dp/B00XBNJM1Q

I've read this in a german forum and try to translate it into English. The thread is about loneliness and somebody wrote an answer that i liked and gave me feels. Maybe someone can read out some answers for themselves.

However recently, someone said something that made me feel emotional: "You know, you 're really differently. Most people notice that. You're like a mystery without wanting to be one. You think, you belong nowhere but that's not true. Rather the opposite. The people you meet want rather belong to you. But you don't let them, because you are afraid. You radiate an openness, that many almost can not comprehend. At the same time you have such a reticence that you exclude yourself from others. You are just a paradox. And this is what makes you sick. You have an incredibly interesting life, always happens something to you. You always have new stories, new knowledge, new people to know. The only one who doesn't see that is you. All other see that and want to be part of it. But you will not let them. Probably because yourself are not part of it. See it as it is, not as it not."

>>Vor kurzem aber sagte jemand etwas das mich sehr bewegte "Weißt du, du bist nunmal echt anders. Die meisten merken das. Du bist wie ein Mysterium ohne eins sein zu wollen. Du denkst du gehörst nirgendsowo dazu, das ist aber falsch. Eher im Gegenteil. Die Menschen, die du kennenlernst wollen eher zu dir dazu gehören. Du lässt sie aber nicht, weil du Angst hast. Du strahlst eine Offenheit aus, die viele fast schon nicht begreifen können. Zugleich hast du aber eine derartige Verschlossenheit, dass du dich selbst davon ausgrenzt. Du bist halt ein Paradoxum. Und das ist was dich so fertig macht. Du hast ein unfassbar interessantes Leben, immer wieder passiert etwas bei dir. Immer hast du neue Geschichten, neue Erkenntnisse, neue Menschen kennengelernt. Der einzige, der das nicht sieht, das bist du. Alle anderen sehen das und wollen Teil davon sein. Aber du lässt sie nicht, vermutlich weil du selber nicht Teil davon bist. Sieh dich so wie es ist, und nicht so wie es nicht ist."

This may sound weird but here it is:

I can't tell colors

I don't think I'm color blind though, I can tell I'm looking at two different colors when put side by side, but I sometimes can't distinguish a color when I see it.

For example; I would look at a piece of clothing and I wouldn't be able to tell what the name of the color is.

Am I color blind in denial or retarded or is it something else?

any advice?

>Am I color blind in denial
Maybe

>retarded
Definitely not

Unfortunately it's pretty easy to to know you're not color blind, but not always easy to understand that you are. (My mom's ex boyfriend was obviously color blind, but insisted he wasn't). After all, your experience with senses is completely subjective.

This sounds like a job for a neurologist. I'd start with telling your doctor and go from there.
>>
look up an online colorblindness test. this might be able to give you an idea

maybe you arent colorblind but experience color differently like someone with synesthesia (which is really cool)
>>
>>16782838
There are different types of colorblindness. Go to an eye doctor.

APPLICATION DECLINED
>>
I'm not going to be nice, because you need the opposite of that: a reality check. Otherwise they won't even consider you.
Fix the horrible grammar mistakes, capitalize your I's and add at least 2 paragraphs. Your writing style is shit as well, because for example this sentence:
>to be considered for your chance to Eramus students
What on earth are you trying to say here?
Saying you "want this opportunity because oh em gee traveeelllingg haha amiright lolo" is retarded, they'll throw your application right to the thrash. Replace that shit with something meaningful like "yo niggas I really like the vision of your company and I think I could contribute" or some shit like that. This letter is so sloppy.

What I do like about this is the paragraph about you being friendly - nice touch. Edit out the mistakes, but keep the idea.
>so I'm usually the one that ends up taking care of everyone
Delete that shit, you sound like a doormat, not a friendly, adaptable explorer.

Good luck, kid.

So recently I've been really getting annoyed by my sister, so has my father too, I haven't talked to much to him about it but I'm pretty sure hes close to losing his shit. My sister does nothing useful in the house, doesn't clean or anything just stays on her laptop all day and occasionally goes to school, but we cant fucking argue with her because every time she instantly uses her pussy pass and denies both my dad and I a chance to even get through her thick fucking skull. We complain something to her and she says shes been helping out around the house constantly yet nobody else help her, then if we get into some sort of argument she just shrieks like a banshee until we stop and we always end up losing simply cause we're the only ones who have a want for some fucking peace so my dad always keeps admitting that he was wrong whenever he gets into an argument with her. How do we or my dad get a fucking hold of this? Shes literally controlling the house, everything my dad asks me to do I do because hes my fucking parent and guardian and he deserves to have some free time but this has been more stressful than ever lately.

Don't give into tantrums and deprive her off something that she wants.
>>
You must be the oldest sibling? You respect your dad, your sister doesn't.
This is similar to how a bratty child/pet acts. They control the house essentially.
You and your dad make rules and give her chores, but your issues are that you don't enforce them.
Like a child, if she doesn't want to do them, she'll do what she can to get you both to back off: by shrieking.
She needs rules and enforcement. She misbehaves or doesn't do what she's told: no allowance, or no laptop, or no car, or no internet, or no phone. She shrieks? Let her. She tries to hit? If she's old enough, call the police. If not, restrain her until she's calmed down.
She misbehaves because there isn't any punishment.

How do I get the balls to ask a girl out when:
> I don't even feel mature even though Im only 20; Always cracking up jokes of self-deprecation and one crack liners despite feeling sad the majority of time? Despite the fact I try my best to see the beauty of life.
> People don't take me seriously or see me a proper person as a result.
> I can't handle 1 to 1 conversations unless the chemistry is very good. I used to be ok with those social skills, I have not the skills for many years.
> I see these posts on fb that shes having fun with other people, with other guys hovering around her though both fb comments and in real life?
> Then I compare myself to these other guys who seem very well calm and collect people who somehow gets girls to become interested in them.


I don't what I want to get from /adv/ but Im drunk as hell and sad. I wish these emotions to go away, as well as my life.

First you need to work on yourself. Your confidence in yourself is lacking big time. If you try to get a girl, you'll only attract the ones who see you as easy to manipulate.
Find something that will give you the back bone you need. Work out, take a gun shooting class, write poetry and share it at a coffee house, go to a karaoke bar and sing every night until you gain confidence. Read self help books that give you exercises to do, like trying to talk to a new person every day. Tell yourself in the mirror every morning that you matter and you believe in yourself. Learn basic social skills and how to read people's faces.

Once you do that then you'll have almost no problem meeting someone.

Buddy:
>You're 20, try to chill, try to get a part time job, you'll get some experience, and that might help you to mature.
>Try to explore other stuff, like music (Music will be ALWAYS a good conversation theme)
>Prove you're the kind of person worth spending time, like, take some pictures with some friends hanging, having fun, etc.
You need to do some excercise, you have some low self-esteem, you know that you can do more, but you're afraid of the change. c:

I've got a crush on a girl. I know she's going to be at the same event as I do on Valentine's day (at least, according to Facebook). How retarded would it be to start a conversation with her about the subject (Like "Hey, are you coming to the X event on Valentine's day?")?

When she says yes, what should I say to her to keep the conversation going?

If you can't even think of one thing to say to her how do you expect the event to go. Talk to her like you would talk to a friend.

Ok I'm trying to gain some perspective from dog owners that always keep their dogs inside or in the backyard. Dog owners that allow their dogs to bark for hours, don't take their mutts for walks or even play with/train them. Why do you or why do people do this? What's the point of having a dog if you don't plan on playing with it or have it trained?

I'm a stay at home mom. It's hard enough trying to get sleep with a newborn around, but these barking dogs make it impossible for me to sleep/stay asleep. I have a dog, a breed that's known for being a yapper, but I took the time to train him and I take him for walks everyday. A lot of people that live in my neighborhood have stay at home moms/dads so I don't understand how this excessive barking happens.

Thanks. I love em too, but I can't stand dumb owners. A neighbor nearby has a husky, a breed that's known for needing lots of exercise, but they keep him in their backyard and never take him for walks. I don't get why people do this shit. It's cruel.

>>16782886

Oh gee, thats not good for the dog. Are you going to consult with the people in charge of animal welfare or talk to the neighbors first perhaps?

>Dog owners that allow their dogs to bark for hours

ever dated a muslim?
please share experiences bismillah
2 posts and 1 images submitted.

I did. It was magical but in the end it fucked me up. It was a very emotional relationship but always hid and no one could know. She was the most beautiful person I've met back then and there were many feels but the pressure of her family where too much. She is older now, more independent and knows that her family is full of shitheads.
So yeah. Depends on where you live and how modern her family is and even if they are modern, many many tell their girls that they have to get a Muslim boyfriend. You can try it but as always don't expect too much, so you don't mess yourself up.

I have a question that might be a bit weird.
Do people actually strongly feel guilt, about all sorts of things, or is it an "overacted" emotion like most, that's portrayed much differently in fiction as opposed to how people actually feel?
Like this "heads over heels in love" stuff and some such things. Portrayed as much more intense than it actually is in real life, I mean.

Humans are emotional creatures, some humans are easily swayed by emotions while others not, but it is possible for humans to feel enormous amounts of feelings for different things. Movies try to represent those times but you'll not be able to comprehend certain feelings portrayed such as "head over heaps in love" in till you experience the feelings themselves.
>>
Depends on the person, some people are more intense than others. Some people even feel more than other, some feel stronger. Some people don't feel much at all, more linear type of emotional life.
>>
>>16782809
That's sort of what I mean, I've had romantic partners before but I never felt I was really "in love" as such. It was nice and all but not magical, or however you like to call it.

I've posted threads here before about help with depression and received some great replies. I'm currently seeking help, but I want to ask a question that many will react against strongly. I want to know what is the least messy and least painful method of suicide? I feel that this is an inevitability in my case, whether it happens in 10 or 40 years time. I know some of the preparations methods such as using the toilet before hand. I'm thinking of ODing may be the best option at the moment. I don't want to be too much of an inconvenience to whoever has to clean up after me.

Not in the least - but when all else fails, try new tactics! For instance: if you haven't made friends in class and in your dorm, try joining a college society or learning a new skill. Get into woodwork, and you'll pick up valuable knowledge of carpentry while also expanding your social circles.
>>
Not OP, but in a similar situation. The thing is I don't dorm and I go part time while working most days. Not sure if that's useful info, but figured I'd put it out there.
