So I applied for an apprenticeship, one that I'm fairly certain my CV will be impressive for and one that I really want.

I contacted them earlier and was told that the Director of Engineering was away, that he was handling the applications and that he will be back tomorrow. So I have his name and when to call.

I really want this call to complement my application, so when I ring I want to be able to do more than just ask how my application is going. What are some things that I can say that will really help me sound good to him?

Yes and no. You don't get a lot of chances of dating someone you consider a close friend. I say fuck it and go for it best case scenario she shares you're sentiment. If she doesn't and she's really a friend she won't cut you off because you asked her out and if she does then she isn't really a good friend and isn't worth spending time with. I expressed my feelings for a girl I've been tight with since early high school, shit she even reciprocated them and it was awesome. Then things went downhill out of no where and we both decided we shouldn't date. Sure things were weird for a bit, but in the end we're still good friends.

I heard this song in a casino, but i can't find it.
It sounded like an old song from 70/80/90
It's a half-fast paced song, not like neil young

It had the word tonight in it, couple of times after each other.
''Í wanna.. tonight toonight toonight i wanna .... toonight toonight''

On the ''....'' maybe it's: dancing, drinking, driving. Not sure if i'm close witht hat one.

Between the couplets, there was a weird kind of instrument to be heard playing. Maybe its a piano, with weird tones
Male singer

Help is appreciated

just search through youtube with "tonight tonight" or whatever you thought the lyrics were smartass

I met a cute girl the other day at a college club thing we both belong to and we talked for about 20 minutes. Did we hit it off? Not like in a super romantic way, but we made each other laugh and we enjoyed each other's company.

That was a week ago. She just showed up in my suggested friends on Facebook. Should I add her? Message her? I'm interested in asking her out for dinner or something, but I don't know if I should add her or just wait until I see her again.

She's 41 and i'm 23. I'm so scared to touch her even though she mentioned having sex with me and everything, i'm feeling very uneasy just thinking about it, what df is wrong with me, what should i do? I'm not a virgin, does age have to do with it?

Worried she might think you're inexperienced?

Does she treat you with respect and care? Or does she objectify you? Age differences can bring about some uneasy power differences. I don't mess with older people.

Honestly, there's no such thing as too big of a dick if you've got adequate lube. It will still hurt, but it can still be done. Lube up son.

Thoughts on under-age sex?

I'm 18. She just turned 16. 17's legal in my state. She wants it bad, and so do I.

Any thoughts, comments, or advice?

>>16776957
Don't. If her parents find out at all you're fucked.
>>
If it's legal, go for it. If it's illegal, then decide whether the penalty if you're caught is worth a few minutes of sex that you could get with a girl who's legal.
>>
A two-year age difference isn't very significant, so I don't see it as creepy or morally wrong. Just be very careful and discreet until her 17th birthday

So I broke up with my boyfriend about three or four months ago, but I still want to be able to talk with him (he's a real rad guy). We also had some joint projects going on (stories, characters, drawing etc.) How do I go about this? Is it a bad idea?
Note: I still like him a lot...

Why did you break up with him?
>>
Try to know over friends how he is dealing with the whole broke up thing, if he is doing fine a casual approach is good for maintaining a healthy friendly relationship, and the projects that you guys had going can be a good way to start it. Try to consider his feelings as well before approaching him, since none here knows what happened to you guys to break up, neither if he is a fragile person or not.

Good luck.

The relationship was long distance but the lack of communication really just fucked it (we used to Skype a lot). Not to mention my depression shitting on everything else. Didn't feel it was fair for him

I'm 23. So i'm talking to this older woman i meet at school, i find attractive, she brought up the topic of sex and getting a hotel room. Three times recently she's mentioned that, she hasn't had sex in a while and that she might scare me off if we do it and asked if i can handle it.

I guess i can understand why she would believe that, in class i'm often quiet and people always say i'm nice, other friends in class swear i'm a virgin even though i'm not. I just feel it's a time and place for everything, i like to be mysterious lol. She does let me touch her breast and butt....How can i respond to what she said about scaring me off, how can i convince her, what should i say, what should i do?

this is Op, no she didn't bring up the topic about sex, i did because she was conversating with me about her turnons with sex around when we first meet, so i called her a big tease and told her i don't talk about that kind of stuff unless were going to have sex, ever since she's been flirting with me.
>>
>>16776716

well ask her how you can convince her i guess.
>>
OP if there's a time and place for everything then in those instances she let's you touch or grope her try to escalate it.

That is if you want sex. You call yourself mysterious but are willing to give up secrets for sexy time. Don't give her too much, let her figure it out. Someone who you don't know about attract you. (Its actually a completion mechanism in the brain)

I just feel so terribly uncomfortable around people, and they seem to feel the same about me. I am unable to hold a conversation, even mundane smalltalk makes me anxious. I mostly reply with one-word answers, since I don't know what else to say. I've got nothing to say, really. The memories that I have are old and faded, the past few years have been empty and uneventful. I've got no stories to tell, ideas to share, nothing to have in common with anybody. My mind feels sort of hollow, too, like I don't have a personality.


I started taking anti-depressants 6 mts ago and some therapy, and I got a job, but it's all going nowhere as I am still unable to function and unable to even recognize what's up with me or why - I simply don't have a clue. My best guess is that the years of isolation made me loose my ability to be social, that I forgot how to human, basically. But how do I change that? Is it even possible?

(sorry for the wall, and thanks for anyone with advice)

You just have to accept that the first steps are the hardest. Socializing requires practice, like any other skill. The more you try, the easier it'll be, and you'll be having actual experiences with other people, so you'll have new things to talk about.

Get yourself a job, too, if you don't have one. Join us in the real world. It kinda sucks sometimes, but it's better than being alone and doing nothing.
>>
>>16776723
Like I said, I've been trying for 6 months now with therapy and such. And I got a job... Things are just awkward as ever. Part of me feels like it's getting even worse now, my social inability that is, because I'm constantly confronted with it, how bad it is.

I got the smalltalk part (somewhat) down by now, but I never truly connect with anyone I talk to - it's more out of politeness I'd say.

But yeah, you're right, the first steps are freaking hard. I'm feeling pretty hopeless. It's that I'm a girl, and guys are more forward/approach me first, but me being robotic and dull stops anything from ever developing. Even with that advantage I got nothing. It's disheartening.

Thanks anyway

Experiencing this too. Hoping there is someone who can give another advice.

About two weeks ago, my computer started acting up. If I began to multi-task it would simply shut off so I took it apart and cleaned it out. While doing this, I noticed that a few of the capacitors were beginning to burst. I figured I'd use this as an excuse to get the parts for a new computer.
For your reference, the old computer's specs: HP a6230n
8GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce GT 520
link :
http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c01153857

The new computer's specs:
Case: Rosewill Galaxy 01 Gaming Case; $49.99

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-990FXA; $112

Graphics: EVGA GeForce GTX 950; $159.99

Sound Card: Creative SoundBlaster Zx PCIe Gaming Card; $87.14 (Sale Price)

RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB; $74.99

PSU:Rosewill RD600-M 600W PSU; $59.99

I'm also upgrading my monitor:
AOC I2269VW-B 22" Ultra-Slim IPS LED Monitor; $89.99

CPU: AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8-Core 4.0 GHz; $169.99

Along with some other components, the price is $886
In short, I need to know if I'm making the right decision for the price I'm paying, since all the computers I've had beforehand were all partially upgraded hand-me-downs. Picture related, it's the case.

Hello /adv/

I have a gf of 5 years. We've had an open cellphone policy. We have access to each other's cell phone, all we have to do is ask.

As 2015 came to an end, she became increasingly more shady. New Years came and I snooped in her phone, I found a few guys hidden under girl's names.

We broke up and have been trying to work it out. So at the end of January, we had a period where we didn't speak for a week but we were together.

We met up and decided to work on it, I asked to proceed I wanted to go through her phone with her. She refused. I asked why, and she says she doesn't want to be in a toxic relationship.

She told me it's an issue of control.

She asked me as recently as a week and a half ago for my phone, and found nothing. She has asked me 3-5 times within the past year to see my phone. I have nothing to hide, so she found nothing.

She changed her stance and wants a trusting relationship.

Is she justified in this stance? I have never refused her to search my phone, not one single time.

This isn't a new relationship, its 5 years. We were engaged at one point.

Am I being a fucking fool?

My philosophy is that if there is nothing to hide, there should be no issues.

She sounds like a shady person. Especially putting guys in her phone under girls names.


Having said this: Are you the overly possessive and controlling type? If so, she is probably sick of it.
>>
>going through someone's phone
>acting like a controlling parent to your significant other

nigger, wtf r u doin
>>
>>16776614

Your girlfriend may or may not have something going on with another guy, it's tough to tell from what you've said. But regardless, she's not wrong in her arguments against the phone-snooping thing. You can't really police a relationship like that, and expect it to be good. Either you choose to be together, or you don't. But you're actively sabotaging it by constantly "checking up" to see if she's been lying to you. It just comes off insulting, and as you've discovered, it really doesn't even give you an answer to your question.

There will always be doubts, but you can't let them control you like this. If you're presented with EVIDENCE that she's cheating, then you leave. But if you're constantly searching for evidence even when nothing is wrong, you're ruining it. If you can't just set your doubts aside, take the leap of faith, and enjoy the moment, then you shouldn't be in a relationship.

Well /adv/, I am in a tight spot here and obviously always have been a retard when it came down to life choices. So I need you to help me evaluate how shit my life is and what is the best way to proceed.

I fell for the STEM meme in university and fuck up my major hard. I do think that I could manage the work, but I have a severe amount of distractions. My life outside of uni is absolute trash and I seriously doubt that I can handle it without ending up in some psychological institution. I still did not move out at 21 and my parents constantly ride my ass about every single thing. I am broke as fuck, can not hold down jobs because my major fucks me hard and have a collection of psychological and now also physical issues. No real friends to speak of, just a bunch of people who do not mean anything to me I get occassionaly drunk with. Obviously no gf. It feels like I am unable to handle the pressure much longer and before shit really goes south I want to change things. The seemingly most valid choice would be to get an apprenticeship and get away from this shitty place I am at right now, but I really do not know whether it will not leave me in an even worse situation.
Did some anon around here struggle with something like that aswell? What should I do?

Can someone explain the STEM meme to me? What exactly is the pit fall of STEM?
>>
>>16776519

Well, I guess I can do it aswell.

To be successful on the STEM path you need to be really, really good. That basically means you have to be autistic as fuck and live and breathe math, otherwise that shit is going to eat you alive and you are going to scrape by with shitty marks at best. And when you are finished, if you are finished that is, you are going to get rejected at every single place you send your application to, because no one needs a half baked scientist who only managed to get through by doing the minimum requirements.
Additionally the STEM market is oversaturated as fuck and even the ones who are actually good in their major need to sweat a lot to get a job which is in their field.
And at last, you always need experience to get a job and getting experience is pretty much impossible when no one employs you because of your lack of experience.

STEM is just too much of a gamble and will most probably leave you with nothing at best and with even less than nothing at worst.

First of all, depending on what your GPA is, see if you can internally transfer your major within the same department to a less strenuous course. Most universities have an unwritten rule that no matter what degree you were accepted into, if you gain the prerequisites and credit points for something, you will graduate with whatever degree you earned it for. Speak to Dean of Students, speak to your head of department, see what you can salvage. THEN see if you can get your apprenticeship.
