Stay fit and active, get at least an hours sunlight per day, read a lot and help others when you can. These 4 things are enough to make 99% of human beings consistently happy and well rounded.

In your case I'd say also take a second job and contribute more to the rent or find another way to help financially until you improve yourself enough to move onto something new.

Share stories and help each other.

Hey guys, a few months ago, I made a post here which really helped me quite a bit. I wanted to start by thanking the anons who did help me by influencing me to go to the gym and keep me out of depression. Long story short:
>be 20
>be cheated on in worst way
>fall into deep depression
>lose house, family is not there for me
>turn to drugs to cope
>post here

I wanted to share with you guys that the battle is still very alive, but that in some cases it does get better. I still wake up everyday and want to kill myself, but my addictions still won't let me. I'm dug myself deeper in debt chasing this dragon, but I'm here today to ask all you anons what the next step in my life should be. I want to get clean, but then I know I'll have to face this alone, without my crutches, and honestly, that sounds worse than overdosing. I still have no friends, but I feel that's the key. How do you make friends? And I mean lasting relationships?

>>16552726
I've done that in the past. But when I get there, I'm always overshadowed by someone who like killed their kid over some heroin, which objectively makes sense. And I know it sounds like I'm making excuses, but I honestly feel trapped just listening to these people everytime I've gone.

>a girl cheated on me
>and now i want to kill myself

thats literally how pathetic you sound.

>i want to get clean but then ill have to face that alone and that sounds worse than just killing yourself.

then just kill yourself. as dr suess said 'Whether you like it or not, alone is something you'll be quite a lot!'.

being alone can be a mans greatest asset. which makes being lonely just a really stupid choice. no matter how surrounded you are by friends, families, servants, and mentors, you are still going to be alone, and having a crutch isn't going to help.

right now your brain is rewarding you for being depressed and doing drugs. you feel better when you believe yourself to be this poor unfortunate soul with a heavy burden, then of course the attention that comes with it in threads like this.

>>16552739

this right here kinda proves me point. its not enough to get help, you want to feel validated. and theres nothing wrong with that, but you are seeking the wrong kind of attention

wouldn't you rather be that guy who got his shit together? wouldn't you rather be the guy who did it on his own? the guy who shaped his own destiny and didnt care about whether or not he was alone while doing it? dont you want to be able to brag about that one day? my boss has been sober for 40 years this month.

if you do this on your own, you can be the guy who reaches out and helps the people like you. instead of being the victim who always needs saving, you can be the hero everyone looks up to. it literally just takes a choice.

>i still have no friends, but i feel thats the key
>how do i make friends
>and i mean lasting relationships

do you really think ANYONE wants to be friends with a druggie? i mean sure other druggies but they can't help you, and you refuse to go to support groups that actually have people in your situation, so what choice do you have?

you dont need friends to get clean. You need to get clean to make friends.

Was using bf computer - when I open chrome a little history window comes up and its all videos for "hairy grandma porn"
It makes me feel weird. I am only 29. Does he think I am a grandma? Is he having an affair with an older woman?

>>16552696
Well ... It has me feeling kind of weird. He told me to look through his history its pretty much only granny porn.
He said "I think all woman are beautiful even if they are older," and "I use to be really into it years ago."

There was a small smattering of ethnic porn (about 4 videos) and two "big clit" but everything else was grandmas.............

The only girl I've ever had feelings for told me it was ok that I was shy, and then left me for someone else precisely because I was shy. It brought up a lot of trust/confidence issues and I developed chronic depression as a result but I decided not to let it affect my future and applied for a Master's programme. The tuition fees put me even further in debt, and I just about manage to cover my basic living costs by working a shitty part-time job with long unsociable hours. I don't have enough money for a social life, and I work/study so much that I don't have time for one either, so I've been feeling pretty lonely and sad. The only things I look forward to are surfing the web for a few hours if I get time in the evening, and visiting my family for xmas. Yesterday I came home to find someone had broken into my flat and stolen my laptop, meaning that I'll now have to spend xmas working extra hours in a job I hate to pay for what I already owned.

I'm not trying to say that I'm the worst off in the world, I have many things to be fortunate for and I know plenty of people have it worse. It's just been so long since I actually enjoyed being alive, and I don't know what to do. All my effort goes towards not folding under my shitty circumstances now so that I can have a better future, but no matter how hard I work my life doesn't improve - it only seems to get worse as I get older and more independent. I don't know what to do to help me reconnect with happiness again. Any ideas?

Nigga what
Just go to some party's or get a new hobby where you can meet some people, money is not a requirement.

I suggest this a lot, but I really suggest people start lifting weights. It's not a magic pill, but the exercise really makes a huge difference in your overall mood. You feel better and more confident in yourself.

>>16552634
>Go to some party's

Ok, who with? Most of the people on my course don't live at the university, and have social lives at home. The people I live with are mostly foreign students (mainly Chinese) who don't socialise. Even if I did get invited to a party, I don't have enough money to buy alcohol or pay to go to clubs afterwards, which is what most people do at around 10-11pm after a party.

>>16552637
Gym membership was the only thing I allowed myself to splash out on at the start of the year, with money I'd saved up working over the summer. I go 6 times a week, and am probably in the best shape I've ever been in. It does help a little bit mood-wise, but I've been a regular gym-goer for more than 5 years and have exercised all my life, so it's not made any real difference for me recently.

Why do women cut off their hair?

This girl I've been talking to is cutting off all her hair for a pixie hair cut. She knows that I love her hair long and that I think it looks gorgeous. Today she told me that she is cutting it all off but I can tell she wants me to be excited for her.

I'm about to drop all contact. How can I explain why I don't think she should cut it off without looking shallow.

>inb4 you're shallow

I have an issue with women I'm romantically involved in cutting all their hair off. One time I broke my ankle rather severely and my gf at the time cut her hair off because she wanted to punish me for making her stress.

The other time something like this happened my gf accused me of cheating and cut off all her hair off. It turns out she was actually cheating and wanted to do something that would make me hate her.

I don't know why I can't just find a woman who enjoys having a long hair and why is it that my luck somehow always finds me in these situations.

She's cutting off her hair because she wants to get a pixie cut, and seems to be excited about getting a pixie cut.
That's pretty much all there is to it.
I wouldn't call you shallow because that's a silly thing to use as an insult, we all have things we do or don't want in a prospective partner.

What you do have to understand is that if she wants to cut her hair shorter you don't really have any business telling her that she can't. Especially because you aren't even in a relationship yet.

If you really want to be with her perhaps explain that shorter hair in a partner makes you feel uncomfortable - but be prepared for her to go off at you and break off... whatever you have; although that is a worst-case scenario.
>>
why? because sometimes they like the look of it and sometimes women have the gall to make choices about their looks without those choices aligning with whatever pleases the men in their life

don't be a controlling knob. if she wants to cut her hair off that's her choice. if you don't like the look of it, find a girl who prefers to wear her hair long.
>>
Also, if you tell her to not cut her hair for a reason other than the fact that you don't like it, that's lying and isn't really fair on her. Be honest, and suck it up if your honesty loses you a girl; lying about stuff like that always, always blows up in your face in the long-term anyway.

Hey /adv/,

So how true is the saying, "Follow your dreams"?

I ask because I'm pretty much at rock bottom here. Working a job I hate with nothing serving as a better alternative and have no idea where I want to go. I've always thought about going into stand up or possibly working in in hiking/rock climbing/outdoors stuff even though there isn't that much money to be made.

I guess what I'm trying to ask is are there any people here who just said, "Fuck it!" and did what they wanted? How did everything work out?

Sorry if this question is mixed up all over the place.

>Told him EVERY TIME he would visit that he should nut up, move here and do something he likes

Funny enough OP, I was just about to ask a similar question.

That picture pretty much sums up my situation, and I'm not sure if it's right or wrong to give up worrying about income. Probably because I'm still under my parent's roof and I have a past incessantly grabbing at my heels.

I just kinda lost what I'm passionate about, I want to do alot of things, many of which I'm not even good at.

Hit it off with a girl on tinder. Went on a few dates and ended up cuddling, making out and then almost fucking on the third date. I was extremely nervous and awkward during this, and it definitely turned her off. To make matters worse, I couldn't get an erection due to my anxiety and we didn't even fuck. Long story short, I killed whatever chance we had at something pretty quickly because of my fear of taking things too slow, but also being ill prepared to maintain such a pace.

Anyways, we go to the same University but we're also from the same state. We didn't know each other before college, but we'll both be going back home for winter break.

Is there anything I can do to try and get a second chance? After we stopped trying to fuck she talked about how we were taking things too fast and that she wasn't ready for something so serious (I'm pretty sure this was just her letting me down nicely, but I wish she would've just told me if it was because of my shitty performance in bed just so I could be sure. To make matters worse, she said that she "promised that it wasn't because of anything I did".)

I haven't talked to her in a few days, and I probably won't even try to communicate until we're back home. The only reason I'm even choosing to believe that she actually meant what she said about talking things too slow was that she pulled me in for a kiss before I left her apartment after our shitty attempt at screwing (we also cuddled for a while after that too) I don't know why'd she do that if she didn't actually have feelings. Should I try to message her as a friend during winterbreak? Romantic feelings aside I did like hanging out with her.

Be honest about what happened and if she isn't a shallow bitch she'll more than likely give you a second chance. Of course this also really deppends on of she is intrested in you or was just looking for a fuck.
>>
>>16552357
I can't tell if she's a shallow bitch. I mean girls who aren't just looking for a hook up don't cuddle and passionately kiss the guy, I'd assume. But I'm honestly not sure, and I fucking hate how hook up culture has made me anxious about not making moves fast enough. She seemed to generally like me before I spilled my spaghetti.

>tfw holding hands walking back to her apartment
>tfw stop at a red cross walk
>tfw she grips one of my hands with both of hers
>tfw look at her and she has a cute smile on her face

Fuck man, I hate being so goddamn socially inept in college. I feel like I finally get a chance to have a relationship and yet I still fuck up, even when I was so close. I don't want to fuck random girls every week, I just want someone I can talk to and watch netflix with after a long day of studying or some shit.
>>
>>16552400

"Hey, I've got to say I'm sorry about last week. I feel like such a spaz. To be honest, I kind of hate how hook up culture has made me anxious about not making moves fast enough, and I liked you enough I guess that's what happened. Truth is I just want someone I can talk to and watch netflix with after a long day of studying or some shit.

Anyway, sorry about all that. Have a good Christmas break."

If she responds positively, see where things go from there. If not, you got it off your chest.

Hello, I have a realtionship problem and don't have much people to talk about it so i thought I'd ask you guys

So me and my gf got together in June, abouth a month into our realtionship she told me she is going for a wine with a guy who she made out with about 3/4 months prior. She then told me more about it and it was clear the guy is still in love with her. So we had our first fight. She went with him and afterwards told me that i was right and he is still into her.

So I thought this matter is done but then about 3 months later she casually tells me she is going out with him again. I got mad again and told her I don't like that she is going out with a guy who loves her, but she tells me that he is her friends and I shouldnt want her to stop seeing her friends. We argued some more and then she said she won't come out with him again because she doesn't want to do something I am so uncomfortable with.

Well yesterday i found out that had coffee on Monday and I am mad as hell. I can't really turn it down. Am I too jealous and should just try to let it go or am i not completely in the wrong?

tldr gf keeps seeing a guy she made out with who still loves her even after she told me she is not going to do it anymore

you have every right to be jealous. That's super suspicious.
>>
>>16552166
It's too late now, but here's where you lost the highground:
>she tells me that he is her friends and I shouldnt want her to stop seeing her friends.
Next time when she mentions that she's going out for a wine with someone you think is sketchy invite yourself along. You shift the moral impetuous from yourself to her: you either get to go along and put this guy in his place, or you seize the moral highground by forcing her to admit that she wants to hang out with a guy she likes by herself.

Of course she could break out the old My-Personal-Space gambit, but you just counter with the Couple-Means-Sharing-Lives maneuver, and if you get stuck there's always the Crazy Ivan.

Being in a relationship is like being in a submarine battle, is essentially what I'm saying.
>>
I'd be pretty upset. Not because she's hanging out with another guy (Well, I wouldn't be upset if that's actually all that's happening) but because she said that she'd do one thing, and goes behind your back and does the opposite. I'd say thats a red flag for your relationship if its only been a month and your partner is already willing to just tell you what you want to hear and go behind your back rather than discuss things.

Call a church you're looking to join. Get a meeting with the priest. In my old diocese, you had to meet with the bishop. You go to Sunday school for like a year or something, not sure. You're then baptized and saved from everlasting hellfire. Hallelujah. Praise be.
