I have to pick a book for a grade 12 ISU (independent study unit)
I'm gonna have to analyze it and write essays on it and shit.
I don't know what to pick, thought you might help me with some suggestions
(Anything between 100-300 pages)
I was thinking of:
The Alchemist
Death of a Salesman
The Stranger
Catcher in the Rye
Difficulty/ Enjoyability of the books? I don't know, just lay it on me

I am loosing control over my life and I suspect I have add.I have always had a problem with self regulation but it's gotten much worse as of late in the time when my focus and attention is required the most and my bad habits from high-school are being carried over to uni and struggling to work at my full potential. in middle school despite my procrastination habits I did well and got into a good high-school and had a dream of studying abroad and becoming a doctor. yet I struggle to cope and often was late to class and on assignments due to me spending way more hours then required on fanfiction and Manga. as a result I could no longer attend the program in my previous high-school and had to go to a regular one.Even though the material was easier my ego was completely destroyed by my failures and I had low motivation to do much of anything except occasionally watching online college courses for academic enrichment. however, I never completed these courses. I got fed up with my attitude and cut myself of Manga and fanfiction. I tried to change my self in senior year by starting a science club and trying harder in academics in general but even then I was putting minimal effort and one of my courses had a mark closest to failing while the others were subpar. I was worried I might not get into uni.I stopped caring for myself and my grades began suffering once more and I talked to a counselor and told my parents about how I was seeing her. they got upset as they thought it would be a hindrance and wouldn't help it got worse when I asked her to give me a referral to a psych. I denied it eventually fearing that it would jeopardize my chances at becoming a doctor. I also never used to take the counselors advice. I just disconnected from her and upon the insistence of my parents to see tutor who I saw only twice I put in some effort and somehow salvaged my grades and got into a decent uni which made me happy. however,everything got a lot worse

Now because I have lost an interest in Manga and never had hobbies or friends to begin with I'm procrastination of new more dangerous things once it was constantly chatting and now compulsively flapping which makes me fueled ashamed. on top of it I am lying to my parents about my grades and doing bad and skipping classes because it's so far and doing work till the last moment messing up my sleep schedule like today with my exam tomorrow. I can't seem to focus or concentrate and my memory is super poor and like always I rush through things making silly errors. When I was young through online medium which eventually resulted in the calling of a counselor and talking about my frustrations I reached out several times but discontinued it or was told to regulate myself better. I already know what my problems are and what I should be doing but I can't do anything. I hate myself and probably shouldn't even be posting this. I used to love learning and helping people out even listening to others vent and giving solutions but now I can't do anything. Everything feels pointless and everything leads to regret cause I am performing under my true potential and I don't want to get help so is their any hope for me? No right sorry for the long post.

Reply please ;-;

oh my god, I know exactly what you are going through...because I am going through it as well. I have ADHD and have the exact same problem. I honestly want to cry right now, I've never met or seen anyone with almost my exact situation.

My boyfriend is planning on proposing to me in December, probably around Christmas. We've been together seven months, have lived together for four of those.
We recently went through a little rough patch where he betrayed me and shattered my trust in him. I still love him, but I can't accept his proposal in December because I need time to trust him again and make sure it is what I really want.
How do I go about letting him know to not buy a ring and propose?
tldr:
>bf is going to propose
>he broke our trust
>would reject proposal but still want to be with him
>how do I tell him to not propose while still being with him?

So my boyfriend and I had sex this morning. Earlier tonight my boyfriend texts me and asks "so what that the best yet?"
How the fuck do you answer a question like that?
It felt pleasurable, as it does with every other time we've done it, I don't keep track of when it was more pleasurable or not.
If I say no, I feel like I'll hurt his feelings and make him think he's not doing a good job.
If I say yes, I feel like I'm lying and I'll give him a big ego.
Is it me or is it a weird question to ask?

lol, I'll sometimes ask after my gf has a particularly intense looking climax, but it's more like a, was that good? should we do it like that again? type phrasing .
A simple, "It was amazing. Just as good as the others" will probably do.
If he asks a follow up question (he probably will) just tell him, that while you enjoy it, you don't really keep track of that kind of shit.
Basically what you wrote here.

My girlfriend and I had unprotected sex a few days ago but I pulled out after a while. This was on the day her period ended. Didn't cum inside her. How likely is she gonna get pregnant?

High possibility
>>
Highly unlikely. But don't do this shit in the future if she's not on birth control, it's not worth the risk or the anxiety.
>>
>>16466798
Kindly explain to OP how one can get pregnant from no cum.
Oh wait, I can: if you came shortly before penetration, there might have been leftover semen in your tubes that seeped into your precum, which then went inside her. But this is not even close to as likely to result in pregnancy as just cumming inside of her. Sperm are fragile little fuckers. So no, it's not a "high possibility". Perhaps this poster is a troll who enjoys giving people heart attacks?

Background: known girl for 5 months at work, didnt speak to her for four months since i moved job locations, and since i move from locations. we talk to each other about life, we stare at each a lot across the room, and she's nice to me, and hold the door for me when I see her. She also every now and then had started conversations with me.
just made facebook (added photos), two people accepted my add, I then added her, and she has't accepted my add yet.
Questions
- Will she be creeped out to see if I have two friends on facebook? Looking at her photo gallery she is a very social person
- I uploaded four photos; three selfies and a cover picture of a sky.
So what should i say if she accepted the add and I want to go onto the relationship route? or what happens if she doesnt accept my add? I think i will give it up on it; if it doesnt go well. im prepared to fail and be rejected i dont mind.

You made this thread already. She will probably be creeped out once she sees you have 2 friends, and then will realise you made the fb account with the sole purpose of adding her, and that will be creepy too.

>>16466766
Also
>she holds the door for me
That's normal dude. I holde the door for strangers and vice versa, it's just being polite...

>>16466777
yeah your right, but wouldnt she have second thoughts that i added two people before her? i tried adding 50 people on facebook, but they havent accepted my add yet.
>>16466784
yeah i think she is just being nice
How do I deal with a nagging, critical boyfriend? I feel like I can't make my own choices anymore. I can't sit alone in my own room without him barging in, grabbing a cup and whining about why I left a cup in my room (which is basically his room too because he refuses to move into his own) . I listened to his criticism over eating KFC outside the tennis court that I went to watch him play at for two hours today! I feel like I'm married to a WOMAN. I asked for some space for a few days so I can' sort out how to deal with this. I can't get a conversation out of him without hearing criticism and it's getting stressful. Please help me understand how to deal with this.

I think I wanna try this nofap thing. Is it really that good? are there any secondary effects? like wet dreams, that kind of things. Also, didn't the semen in balls get kinda like "rotten" when not expulsed in a long period of time?

I only fap 2-3 times a week, and don't death grip my dick. That's usually healthiest. As for the rotting semen thing I'm not sure. Just don't watch a shit ton of porn and use your imagination half the time and you'll easily maintain an boner when you're with your lady friend.

Did it myself op. Just under two then realised it is mostly a load of BS. Not fapping isnt going to solve your insecurities or make you atheletic. Join a gym and put in a lot of effort or force confidence in social situations. Works much better.

Just had sex with the woman I love. My penis is only 4-5ish inches long. I couldn't make it stay hard for the life of me, and when I did, it kept slipping out. Then I cum so quickly. I can't actually go fast or else I cum ): Really feel like she's going to leave me, even though she said everything was fine. Really feel like dying to know I'll never be able to properly fuck a girl.

are you 12?

Calm down, friend, she's not going to leave you. And you are not broken. You were just overwhelmed by anxiety. It happens to a LOT of people, especially when they have sex for the first time. It will help to talk to her about what happened, explain what was going through your head at the time. She is the woman you love. She is the best person for you to talk to about anything, including this. If this problem persists for a long time (it probably will not), you can see a sex therapist. They are wonderful people.
(Btw, if anyone in this thread says something along the lines of "yep, you failed" they are trolling you and apparently get hard ons from making others feel like shit)

Good thing women don't love men for their penises like men love themselves for their penises.

>I was heartbroken and very depressed. Posted on /adv/ a few times about it.

>8 months go by, finally coming to terms with everything and realizing my life is pretty good
>ex gf texts me out of the blue telling me how sorry she is
>At first I was stand off-ish, but enough time had gone by where I didnt care anymore
>She convinces me to come over to talk. We end up fucking.
>together for 6 months after that, then I ended it. Broke her heart.
Its been about 3 months now since I ended it with her. And I am starting to second guess myself. I miss her to death. But I ended it because I still am not sure I am ready to get married, and I know deep down she is. It hurts me too much to be leading her on when I am not ready. I did that in the beginning and I really regret it.
I try and think about how bad she hurt me and how I felt, and the fact that she probably was cheating on me with the guy she started dating right away (if not physically, definitely emotionally). That makes me feel better, but I know I hurt her this time around and I miss her a lot.
Any /adv/ice would be awesome. Just want to get an outsiders point of view.

It's going to continue to be a cycle until it breaks. Move on and find someone else you like or want to put time into. Do yourselves both a favor and stop playing with her and your own emotions.

Bunch of people in one of my class cheated on the last test by having a copy of it beforehand. How do I go about snitching on them to the professor? My university email? A burner?
Normally I wouldn't give a shit, but the class has a curve and I gotta beat the average. Plus I'm a spiteful bastard and those assholes didn't share it with me
