So whats the deal with meditation and how does one actually get results (whatever this means) with it?

Whenever I actually tried I only felt bored and sleepy.

So, what makes it so good?

So I like this one woman at work very much. We're both single, and I'm fairly certain the feelings are mutual.

However due to the nature of our work, we very rarely get any peace, there's always someone else around and I'm finding it very hard to find a good opportunity to actually ask her out. I also have to admit that the few little opportunities there have been, the right words just haven't come out.

But then I thought, we actually have our work phones. Will I look like a complete pussy if I don't ask her out face to face but actually send her a txt asking her for coffee after work?
I would have to send it from a phone that's number she probably doesn't have saved on hers, so I would have to identify myself on the txt also.

I would prefer dealing this face to face, but shit ain't easy.

Girls, will you think the guy is a useless pussy if he sends you a txt instead of coming to you and saying it face to face? Would it make you reconsider your feelings (we are gonna assume in this scenario my perception about her feelings is true) about a guy you like, or may I even dare, have a crush on?

Oh and inb4 don't shit where you eat.

Hello /adv/,

So there's this girl in my class i've been talking to for like 2-3 months, on and off. We started talking when she started random conversation with me on facebook, and i nitially thought she was into me, but her boyfriend(that i didn't know about) added me 1 week afterr we started talking and told me to stop flirting with her. At this point, I got fairly angry and told him to kill himself and pretty much made fun of him. Girl told me yes, she has a boyfriend. At this point I wanted to stop talking to her but she persuaded me otherwise. So we kept talking until yesterday, we never mentioned her boyfriend again, we soemtimes get flirty, in class she comes sit next to me we play etc. Yesterday she told me to meet up with her for a few minutes. We meet up and have some fun for a bit then we end up in a bar for like 5 hours. In this time, things went very well, she was super into me, she bit my arms, she fell asleep with her head on my chest as I was petting her. I felt super happy and I probably could have kissed her if I made the move. I then walked her home, we hugged at the end.

A few hours after, she wrote me that she's sorry for what happened, and that she wasn't really aware of what she was doing. This made me fairly angry even though I didn't show it to her and I told her we're going to take a break from talking until she knows what she wants, because she can't play both sides of the fence. She told me we might never talk again and that she has no feelings for me.

I clearly feel like she would be with me if it werent for her boyfriend, and that she's not really telling the truth when she says she has no feelings for me. I thought about giving her some kind of ultimatum, like choose me or your boyfriend, but I feel that would be a bad idea for me.

So what exactly do I do have a relationship with this girl? I don't feel she's very attracted to her boyfriend, I don't think they go out a lot or anything.

hey adv. I've been feeling quite anxious the last few days. I'm 23 and i'm a sikh, that is my religion. Actually I am an atheist, but I've grown up in a religious family, I don't believe in my religion but have always kept up the pretense of it to keep my parents happy.

As a sikh I am expected not to cut my hair, this is the hair on top of my head and on my face, I have always felt ugly because of this, especially when my beard started growing, but just over the last few months I looked in the mirror, and managed to get a good look with styling my beard (not cutting, I used hairspray), and right now for the first time in my life I am happy about the way I look, the problem is, as a sikh, i cannot cut my beard and have to let it continue to grow. I have been keeping my beard "In shape" by plucking out hairs using tweezers, but I'm getting anxious now, because my beard hasn't spread anywhere else on my face now for about two years...

This is making me very anxious, because i'm scared if i keep plucking hairs my mom will notice, and she will get upset, only yesterday she was telling me about how good and loyal i was, and how proud she was of her sikh children (i have a sister).

I don't want to look like pic related, i want to look the way I do now, I don't want my beard to grow anywhere else on my face, I can't sleep because im contantly going on facebook and Instagram and looking at pictures of other sikhs with beards that I don't like, I can't sleep ant night, I can't concentrate and ive even been getting chest pains.

I've been venting to a couple of friends and they are telling me it's a first world problem, and they are right, Im healthy, im in a stable family and ive got a good education/career lined up, but this anxiety feels so horrible...

I'm trying to move on from this girl that didn't just work out but I have had three consecutive nights where I dream about her. I'm not just sitting around either; I'm practicing the drums, studying nutrition, Christmas shopping with friends, all kinds of things.

Do I need to see a doctor? The fuck is this?

So i've been talking to this girl since early September until now, but she has a boyfriend. She's a fine bitchy type and i can already tell she's going to be great in bed. But, earlier this year, I asked straight up if we would be having a thing if it wasn't for her current boyfriend and she said maybe plus he's supposed to be leaving our state next year. So, do I continue to talk to her and wait it out in the friendzone or do something else?

I used to be a burglar, small-time.

I had to stop after this last time, 6 days ago.

This person, my last mark, is involved in a cult, the "Cultus des Loogaroo" of Louisiana apparently, and I suspect that they won’t go to the police.

I took a few items and sold a few eventually, but I kept something for myself, a wand. I usually would have destroyed or gotten rid of it. I didn't this time because it makes me feel strange to have it, like I'm holding a piece of someone's soul... it's a good yet guilty sort of feeling.

I also grabbed a book on "Vampyre's" this person had on their desk, which had hand-written notes throughout it.

From what I can tell, it seems that this person is manipulating married couples for money, but I’m not sure of their methods; they write notes in code.

I often think that I'm being watched, stalked by this person or someone they’ve hired. I'll see or think I see people, mostly elderly, or middle-aged, staring at me in public places, sometimes following me for a few miles while driving. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but there are some disturbing secrets written just in the book I still have If they think that I've obtained any information from it... they might be motivated to kill me.

Honestly, I'm just a college-kid in over his head, and I'm scared shit-less. What do I do?

it's 4:48 AM and I haven't slept. I have nobody to talk to but I feel like sobbing. I feel so empty, /adv/. it's like I'm drained of all the positive energy I've been trying to hold onto. it's gone. I have no drugs or alcohol to numb it this time. just sitting in my living room crying so my sister doesn't hear if I start sobbing, as mentioned before. the only people I would ever speak to about this so late at night are out of my life, and it's for the better. I just wish I knew who to turn to.
how do I get rid of this need to speak to someone? and this feeling, if at all possible?
