how do I convince people that polyamory can be ethical?

You don't, that's how. You can still be friends with someone without trying to micromanage their morality to match your own. And it would be easier for you to not waste romantic pursuits with someone who opposes your romantic orientations.

No idea, but do let me know if you find out. I'm in a poly relationship, and am tired of people acting like I'm abusing my partners with my company.

Why do women think that kekolding is a one way street and that it's perfectly ok to bang other guys in front of you but the second you try and bang other girls in front of them all of a sudden your a "typical male pig"?

Is it possible for a complete loser to transform himself into a happy and successful person? Has this ever occurred before in history?
18 posts and 1 images submitted.
>>
>>16557871
depends on how you define happy and successful
>>
Yes but your "loser"-ness will haunt you and affect your decisions and actions for the rest of your life.

I'm probably a good example.

>>
>>16557871
Yes that happens all the time. The most successful and happy people in life are often people who were awkward or not popular in grade-school. It's never too late to change and turn your life around. It's not rare, it's the norm.
Also, "happy" or "successful" people may seem that way in public, but the reality is often not the same.

Just to use some examples if you don't believe me, rapper Eminem has said he was a shy loner in high school, now is a huge musical superstar. Robin Williams was considered happy and hilarious, huge success as well, but was extremely depressed. Everyone is different, just find your own path and don't worry too much if things aren't going as you planned, be grateful of the good things you do have.

I had a male friend who used to hang out in my group in highschool but he didn't really talk to me or the other girls in the group so we didn't really consider him a core member of the group.
Anyways, he knows a bunch of celebrities and recently reached out to me to reconnect and offered to introduce me to some celebrities.
The issue is, I can tell that he likes me and I do not have the same feelings towards him. He's not making any obvious moves so it is difficult for me to properly reject him. Every "meet up" so far has had a good reason like "oh hey I got that actress I saw to sign something for you, let's grab dinner so I can give it to you!"

I never let him pay for me and I give strong signals "you're a great FRIEND" or "haha it's so nice to have platonic guy friends!!".
Anyways- here's the advice I need- how do I prevent this from going any further without cutting my ties to him?

I guess this is kind of bitchy but I enjoy that he has cool connections and I want him to keep introducing me to celebrities, but I don't want to have a relationship with him beyond friendship.
I know I'm a cunt for this, but if he hadn't relied on his celebrity connections to talk to me in the first place, we wouldn't have such a shallow dynamic. The poor guy is so quiet I literally know nothing about him even after 6 years of friendship.

How does he know so many celebrities?

Also prepare yourself for a bunch of people getting butt hurt at you for using him.

I don't think you can really do anything except be his friend (actually be his friend don't just use him) until he makes a move.

One he makes a move you can tell him you see him only as a friend. If you've just been using him then he might drop you, but if you've been a good friend to him then the friendship might stay intact.

If you say anything before he makes a move them that might insult him if he doesn't actually feel that way
>>
>>16557882
I am a good friend to him- he has some kind of social disability I think so he doesn't have any friends. I have been very friendly and patient with him, but he keeps pushing the limits of our friendship into an area that I am not comfortable with. I don't really know how to be an actual friend to him since he doesn't really converse well or open up about anything.
I have been trying to actually get to know him better but I dont know- he might just be really boring.
His father has a lot of connections- that's how he knows the celebrities.


And I understand why people would be butthurt- Im not normally this shallow so I had quite a bit of guilt.
That being said, I am activly denying his advances, so I don't think I'm necessarily leading him on. I'm not like flirting back or instigating meet ups.

Plus, the fact that he's using celebrities to "wow" me in to meeting with him in person is a pretty shallow tactic in and of itself. I don't think I'm being signifigantly more shallow than he is in this situation, so I don't feel TOO guilty.

Hello /adv/

That's it. I've decided I won't meet a normal gf just by going to my usual places and I will join a speed-dating event.

Any advice?
It'll be in the week-end, so what to wear? Casual jeans/sneakers is ok?
What to say and what to ask? Is it okay to ask serious questions like what kind of relationship she's looking for and since when she's been single?

Some examples of questions or topics to fuel the conversation?

I'm in for three this semester. Just cut the hard one out (Higher Mathematics) for next semester since it really adds well to my cryptography class.

I thought I'm going to ask this since a lot of people are in exam period now and/or have already written them. Imo it's a good timing to hear fron different people what worked for them and whatnot. Especially in terms of (exam)-preparation and studying the material. A decent grade would be really good.

>in 6 weeks
You can learn literally anything in 6 weeks.
You can learn the first 4 years of calculus and the principles of analysis in 6 weeks.
Yes motherfucker you should have more than enough time to get prepared.

Need more info. You travelled, worked and now are in college, describe how you went from socially cool dude with a hot girlfriend to autistic 4channer?

What happened to your girlfriend and friends? Don't you have facebook? How does someone who is social not make plenty of acquaintances during those 5 years?

Fuck guys I'm mad. I don't even normally get this mad at people but shit I'm pissed. I try to be nice but I can only listen to ignorant motherfuckers for so long before losing my shit.

I regret going off but I can only tolerate bullshit for so long. I'm not even asking for advice here. Can you guys just help me take my mind off of this shit? Maybe we can all just talk or something. I don't know man. Share with me your problems and I'll share mine.

Whatever, I'll just dump some trippy pictures/give general advice if I can

have no expectations about results, just say what's on your mind and learn from past experiences.

simply assume people like you as you are, not as you "should" be.

I'm just nervous about the whole situation. I'd like to start making friend around this area again, and rekindle a great friendship we once had, but I'm extremely nervous. I haven't hung out in a casual scenario with other people my age in probably five or so years.

wat do?

>>16557560
I am. After college, I moved and didn't have an opportunity to easily make friends, as I worked with people in their 50s and 60s.

I talk to other people my age, but it's always over the internet. That's why I wanna make sure I don't horrifically screw this up.

Okay so I read a few articles and have seen a few video vlogs- and all fat girls agree that they can get attractive men. The ugly ones and the pretty ones. Girls always complain about constantly getting hit on by creeps and I'm confused as to WHY I NEVER GET HIT ON MY STRANGERS
I'm not that pretty and I dress modestly but every girl seems to get hit on. Again, I'm pretty normal looking, tall, average weight. White.

Am I doing something wrong? Tips to get guys to freaking give me attention holy cow

So I have an exam in 4 hours that I know for a fact I'm going to fail. I just submitted an application form for student counselling and I know if I fail/don't attend this exam I will get at least one resit next August. Do you guys think it's worthwhile for me to just not sit the exam and focus on my other three to avoid a completely disgusting mark or should I sit it, fail it and just take the mark and pass the resit?

A side note is that I've had ongoing mental problems for a while and I was considering phoning my grandparents and letting them know before attending/skipping the exam.
>>
>>16557484
You'll learn things from just reading the questions in the exam. Consider it preparation for the resit.
>>
>>16557498
But the issue is that whilst the exam questions each year have been mostly similar, I have missed out on a lot of the course material and not kept up with my studying. So I wouldn't be learning anything I'd just be writing nonsense on the paper and embarrassing myself

Yes.

No.

She could be

A) Bored
B) Drunk
C) High as a kite and accidentally texted you

The off chance she knows you are awake and the text is sexualized or flirty then yes she likes you.

>>16557473
I have already fugged this girl

It wasn't a very flirty message, she just sent me a facebook message and asked if I was awake.

She also knows I don't have a smartphone so I didn't get a notification or anything and just saw it after I woke up.

The rum alone is enough

Paracetamol will fuck you up and you could potentially die.

Just drink the rum and nothing else.

I can usually down that amount of rum without chucking, unless i mix it with other drinks. Just wondering if all that other shit will fuck me sideways.
