It would, yes.

If you want to be come a carpenter full time, it's a must. If you don't, it's still a hobby that involves profit. It's a good idea if you have the time and likes the craft.

It's a fairly comfy and honest trade. But the reality right now is, the demand is very low. We're near another housing bubble; foreign investors are buying properties left and right, and millenials are just leaving with their parents or renting apartments. I mean, I'm sure it's geographical. But just generalizing, it's not very in demand. If you want to make a solid living, go into plumbing or electrical instead. Those trades are in demand everywhere.

What about welding? How's the demand for that?

I often spoke with my old boss about various stuff and I remember him mentioning that skilled welders are always sought after
how true is that?

I need to try the drugs you are on.

It means she is very interested in seeing you.
If you know for a fact that it's a girl, it means she wants to have sex with you (or get to know you better enough for some sex, but since she invited you and beyond, she porbably knows already, she wants it).

If you are not sure, it could mean you are being invited to the last trip of your life... at least the last one with all your organs.

Does she happen to be a bbw/ssbbw model by chance?

Websites help.

Also, there are usually some parties for older people. You can distinguish them by the music that will play, or whatever entertainment that is used to invite people.

In the town I live there is this place that mostly older people go, when I was hot for oldies, I'd go there and have a ball.

Could be a mental health problem or some underlying condition. Can't really tell. Try to cut down on exercise and see if the problem is still there. If yes, then get a doctor's appointment.

I'm gotta be real honest, and you might not like to hear this, but you are not cut out for a relationship yet, OP. Work on yourself instead. Try to get help for your anxiety disorder first. Get with a psychologist/psychiatrist and let them help you and identify the problems you need to address from your past. It's nothing to be ashamed of, but whetever you get with that girl or not, you are gonna have a hard time if you don't look inside yourself first.

t. suffered from severe panic attacks 2 years ago and diagnosed anxiety/depression, pretty much recovering by now

Quite easily desu.

Laziness is a natural state of mind. It's evolutionary adaption to conserve energy in times of abundance which doesn't serve as well in the modern times anymore.

If you are bothered by your personal laziness, best advice is to take a small trip somewhere to get something done or make social calls. You can't afford to be lazy when walking around in a city 300 miles away, looking at Google Maps on smartphone with luggage and a backpack looking for a motel to crash.

One step at a time...
Don't expect to be Mister Motivation after watching a movie about motivation.

Laziness will be cast out after working. Yes, working, sad isn't it?...

The more you use your energy, the more energy you'll have... I know it sounds counter-intuitive, but it isn't. Your body will get used to the energy usage and fix itself around it... And like any other adaptation, it takes a bit of time, and it takes exposure to whatever you wish to change to.

Find motivated friends, husslers and walk with them, this will show you some things they do differently that might help keeping the energy up.

But the real deal is just to start going out and using your energy on sports or work or whatsoever, even if you're lazy. That way you'll rewire the brain and train it, as well as your body, to be less and less lazy.

The one that works 90% of the time for me is:
"Hello, different girl!", of course you could say "Hello, different guy!" and it would hit the same.

It works so well because it appeals to our selfishness... You want to know what I found different on you, what makes you unique. So you ask "Why different?" at the very least. And you can just respond whatever and move on.
Also, it's not something everyone says, so it also comes up as authentic.

you really have set the bar low there, OP

Thank you needed that I'm a little bit too try hard

From day one I stood no chance so the bar is on the fucking floor at this point

I met my GF of 10 months on it, first real relationship I've ever had (23). I was her first date off of it, her second relationship.

Tinder rules apply, though I'd make it more relationship focused than hookup from the time I spent on it. No shirtless pics, have 4 photos of face, full body doing hobby, with pet, with friends.

Write a sentence or two about a hobby, and be passionate about it. No one wants a stick in the mud, be proud and excited about whatever you like to do.

Ask girls out within the first or second text conversations. Drinks or coffee or dessert are easy, casual ones. If they seem like they're into a hookup, offer Netflix and chill, more formal offer a dinner. Really a case by case basis.

If you get a date, be confident. Don't apologize, pick where to sit, don't dodge questions even if it's a sore spot. Act like you've got nothing to hide, so when you pay compliments, it doesn't sound like bullshit. Maybe say a "you look nice" at the beginning of the date, but generally stay away from them until you two have been talking for awhile. Remember what you guys have talked about so you can bring it up later in the date as a callback joke/light teasing to her or a tiny bit of self deprecation on your part.

Most importantly, don't get disheartened and keep talking and getting out there. Some girls will ghost you, some might stand you up, other dates will be garbage where the both of you are completely incompatible. Just stay on that horse and put the effort in, and you'll get your due reward.

the fucks a bumble, is it popular outside the US? I assume its an alternative for people that aint happy with tinder.
me EU

>>18585912
It's a tinder clone where the girl has to initiate contact. Takes pressure off the guy starting conversations with tons of girls and getting no response back

Very likely a constipation. Easy way to avoid constipation is to stop chewing gum so often, drink more water and eat more warm food instead of snack food. Also I recommend apple vinegar.

t. haven't had constipation for a long time

Go buy antiperspirant towellettes (sweat block). Don't follow the directions. It's designed for underarms.
Apply it every day to where you sweat until you stop sweating. Then apply it every few days to maintain your sweat free life.

Sounds like your home country is a shitholes and you should stay far away from it.

Letter A.

I wouldn't pay being an asshole with being an asshole. That would make us just two assholes.

You can just stay away, that is not being an asshole, that's caring for yourself. You are not making things worse for anyone, just better for you.

I'd go with A.

I vote for A
