How can you tell if a girl is really busy or just playing you along? Matched with girl on tinder, got her Snapchat, we talked a lot and she seemed pretty interested. After about a day of this we started having some pretty heavy sexual conversations. Pretty much sent each other nudes for two hours and her constantly telling me how much she wants to fuck me.
Still, no actual plans to get together. It's made a little harder because she lives in Canada and I'm in the U.S but she's still only about a half hr away. She does seem legitimately really busy, but the only real plans we have are to hang out when she has "free time". Then she will continue to send me sexual stuff clearly into me. It's confusing.

Ya your not going to meet up. She gets enough from sexting she won't bother. I'd cut your losses.

Kinda what I'm thinking too. Can't totally complain I guess. Thanks anon

Now post her nudes here

I will most likely be moving to Los Angeles next year to go to university. I was curious for those who live / have lived there, where is the best place to live with a good ratio of safety & cost? Currently I only make $11.50 an hour, hopefully I will make more by then but I definitely am not in a position to be renting a $1000+ apartment in LA. I'd also prefer the least amount of roommates because I am very antisocial and my small group of friends have already paired up for apartments, I'm the odd man out. I'm fine with getting 1 or maybe 2 if need be, but I don't want to live in inglewood or compton or something either because of the things i've heard.

anything helps, thanks!

Inglewood and compton are not bad areas. Its just an overexaggerated stereotype that they are entirely bad. Theyre can be as decent as any spot in LA county
>>
>>18597549
Idk man, Ive been through inglewood and I had to get my Jack in the Box through a bulletproof glass transfer box. And some homeless guy was waiting right after it to wash my window with newspaper and a spray bottle of water. Im sure there must be places nicer than that lol

>>18597542
You're pretty much fucked if you're not making at least 20$ an hour here. That being said, there's plenty of shithole studios on the east side going for 1000-1200. The neighborhoods are being gentrified so move as fast as you can because rent is only getting higher. and Compton isn't too bad on the west side now that it's also in the process of gentrification. White people are still looking for their west coast Harlem.

tl;dr tips for someone underprepared for exams without much time

So I had my 2nd year uni exams in June, in Maths and Physics, and I left myself very underprepared after a year of skipping almost every lecture and class, with a week to go til the 7 exams spread across 12 days. So I did the last minute thing in an incredible panic and on results day I had mixed feelings - on the first 4, I averaged 65, with one above 70 which I was very pleased with under the circumstances. But the last three, chronologically speaking, were all fails. So I've got retakes to do. And they are next week. And yet again I've done nothing until now. I plan to do the same as I did the first time around which was just to copy out as many of the notes found online as possible and try and squeeze some practice questions in the day before, but does anyone have any tips they could share? I'm panicking and would appreciate any legitimate advice. These three are also the biggest modules of the year content wise, so there isn't really enough time to go over a lot of the content and the practice questions are very varied to the point that I could do half of them and still be faced with something totally new on the day. If I fail, I could well face leaving uni. I have nobody around me anywhere who can help me.

Hit me with your tips.
Thanks for reading.

read through notes and focus on working through problems now.

outline, dont copy notes. read them not regurgitate them

follow along in your book and make sure you understand the concept not just memorize

a the beginning figure out the easiest and toughest chapters and start with the easy ones.

Great, will do, thanks. I've been too hung up on writing out my notes and trying to follow as I write, didn't even notice until now.

Is it possible to drink alone, miday, healthily? I mean there is a very negative stigma surrounding doing this, but I'm home all day, and get really relaxed and cozy with a nice buzz, why shouldn't I enjoy a couple drinks?

Possible, yes, but if you're drinking alone it can be very easy for it to become habitual, or to lose track of your consumption. And that can be dangerous.

Hi /adv/,

in February I had an extremely bad trip after smoking some weed, I thought I had a heart attack and panicked so hard that I passed out a few times and people called and ambulance. I really felt like dieing, it was the worst thing I had ever experienced in my life. Since then I live in constant fear of dieing from a heart attack and and I can't stop listening to my own heart beat or feeling my own pulse every few minutes. Every little unusual feeling in my body triggers my fear. The first weeks after that incident it was impossible for me to sleep without sleeping pills. It has gotten better but a few days ago the panic came back after I have eaten a burger and thought about how bad it probably was for my heart. I pushed my finger into my throat, puked it back up and took some sleeping pills again.

Will this ever go away or should I see a psychiatrist or something? Where do I even start?

tl;dr: bad drug trip fucked up my mind, I life in constant fear of dieing

whatever you smoked wasn't weed.
>>
>>18604695
it was, I smoked it for months and shared it with other people. I had psychological problems before, so drugs are probably just an enabler for more problems.
>>
>>18604710
It wasn't weed buddy especially if you smoked it before weed is s depressant basically it makes you sleepy and passive not hyped at all , accept you can't do anything about your heart except take care of it by exersising , eating more fish etc, 1 burger isn't going to give your heart any problems 500 maybe ,

>meet girl in OKC
>she's travelling, will be back in two weeks
>texted quite a bit during 3 days straight
>talked about possible dates once she's back
>she straight up told me she can invite me over for netflix and chill in her flat

so how often should i text before the date she arrives? dont want her to forget about me but i dont want to be overbearing. usually i like texting for logistics but 2 weeks is a lot of time inbetween.

Make definite plans. A time, a date, a place. After that, don't text her until the day before. At that point, send a quick message like "everything still good? Looking forward to it."

More than that and you look needy.
>>
Don't text her at all. Just tell her you guys will hang out when she gets back. Keep yourself busy. You shouldn't be holed up in your room on your free time. Go out and do stuff so that when you do hang out and she asks you what you've been up to you can reply with something else other than "oh I worked" which roughly translates to "I spent all my free time jerking off, playing video games. I'm desperate to get laid"

Okay, I have a problem and I want some thoughts. The above picture is my sister, and I have feelings for her. I've always found her attractive, but over the last month or two I've actually fallen in love. I want to marry her and raise a family of our own children. I want to protect her, I really love her but she's my sister. Give me some thoughts.

I realise I probably do sound like a huge loner faggot. But I have tonnes of female friends and did all through highschool. My last relationship lasted over two years and I lost my virginity to that girl, however, the love I feel for my sister is so much more than what I ever felt for my ex.

Anons-enablers who will tell you it's okay to fuck your sister are on their way.
I'll tell you to find a girl to fuck who is not your sister because incest is gross.
>>
Has she ever shown any interest in you?
If so, tell me how.
>>
What are you asking? If you want to know if you should fuck your sister the answer is
Yes.

Alright, there's a girl I used to date for a couple of years. We broke up and last month we met again at a party and started dating again. I think I like her a lot. Problem is she's going on vacation to South Africa with her friend, which makes me feel worried cause it's a shithole full of black people and criminals. Also, it makes me kind of jealous although she told me several times she loved me and everything. Is it normal? Am I overthinking it? Should I talk to her about this?

Can a partner really help a mentally ill partner? My boyfriend thinks he can help me, but I don't think so. He got frustrated at me once, but I don't think he realizes that changing is hard.

A partner can offer stability and support, but if he isn't a health care professional, no, no really should go see someone else to help with your receovery.
>>
A partner can help a mentally ill partner, but not medically.

A partner can be patient with their partner's behaviors, offer support, offer compassion, and all that loveydovey stuff.

A partner can not play doctor, or therapist.

However, you must know when the mentally ill partner's behavior is being destructive. Unfortunately, many people stay when their partner becomes destructive because they cling onto the minimal hope that 'one day it'll go back to normal.'

If you're bipolar, and take meds, and still have some mild 'down' sessions and require isolation for days, a partner should understand that.

If you're bipolar, or schizophrenic, refuse to take meds, and do destructive behaviors like purchase $5000 in plants on an "up" session, or listen to "bad voices" then a partner has to leave.

Show love, and know when it becomes too much.

I dated a girl who had diagnosed anxiety, depression, and saw a therapist weekly. The only thing I could do is offer her comfort, and support during her attacks, and rides to the clinic.
>>
My boyfriend doesn't care to help me even while I'm seeking help. He thinks meds and therapy is a meme.

Feels bad senpai.

Living in Japan. Seeing 3 girls at the moment. They don't seem to have any interest in me.
I am a failure at life but still, it hurts. I am trying to see each of them and I'm acting like they are the only one, and actually I wish to have an only one but since they're not even willing to see me...
Don't know what to do. I feel like japanese girls are bitches and I'm starting to feel MAD and ALONE in this fucking country.

I fucked this bitch once and she complained I didn't make her cum. I feel hurt in my ego cause she won't let me a second time and I know I could make her cum this time. Man they really got us by the balls. Fuck em

I HAVE other interests, like drawing (I spent a lot of money "preparing to get into it") but no energy or motivation to even try, and anxiety constantly convinces me that since I'm not already decent I can never reach good anyway.
I work 40 hours a week, come home, eat, and sit at my PC procrastinating and arguing with idiots until I feel like going to bed too late.
I sometimes, rarely, start up one of literally hundreds of games in backlog; oh yeah enormous sunk cost here.

I tried a month without my PC. Ended up doing nothing instead, I'd get home and just look at my phone instead, considering it all a waste or time when I could exactly the same but more comfortably on my PC.

I am super uncomfortable showing my body to people. Nothing against smalltalk, but I'm genuinely ugly, not only in looks but especially in attitude, I'd make enemies quickly, town culture is full of bullying, I hate myself enough as it is.
>>
>>18603941
In attitude I guess it's mostly my humor. I'm a manchild with grandad humor, I can get extremely obnoxious, I get obsessive with anyone I start considering a friend, and then I notice a pattern of them losing interest or straight up ignore me.
I don't dare to say more than absolutely necessary replies anymore.

How do I get a good job? Like 550k a year or something.
21 posts and 1 images submitted.

You don't.
Most of those jobs are strictly internally controlled.

You can get into the 100k as a specialist in a field, but that's about it.
>>
>>18603777
What the fuck are you smoking?

>Consulting
>Investment banking
>Portfolio management
>Financal advisor
>VP at large company
>Literally any executive job at established company

You can get 50k-100k jobs out of college, but those jobs are just short-term gratification imo.
Everything I listed you can get, it just takes 10-20-30 years.

Otherwise, start a company or strike it rich in Crypto.

That's no guarantee. I'm at the point where I'm so worried about it I'm completely against any sex that's penetrative or oral. I wanna fuck, but don't wanna get something. WHAT DO?!

Quit fucking worrying and use common sense.

Is the girl a slut or not? Every girl I've been with has been terrified of stds as much as me. If you know they sleep around a lot or fuck with blacks then be prepared for increased risk.

You can also ask to both get tested before consummating. One girl asked me and I was totally fine with it. Getting someone pregnan is 10x more worrying to most normal people than an std.

Is this a religious metaphor or are you implying I should have sex with sheep?

I have a disorder, I've had it all my life. Teachers wanted me to get checked out as a child but my parents didn't and don't believe mental disorders are real other than mental retardation and severe expressions of it. They just beat me thinking I was hardheaded, a smart ass or being lazy.

I've dealt with the effects of a behavior that makes mental processing and language a challenge, I short circuit, have short term memory loss, am in flight or flight mode, have diagnosed ADHD and anxiety but I feel those are merely symptoms of a greater problem.

I've never been able to keep jobs longer than three months or so, I've been on and off homelessness from 17 to my mid twenties (now), I have only one lasting very close friendship (who thinks I'm on some sort of spectrum) and basically what I gather from others my behavior and reactions/social dynamics are repellant after some time. But I have many people who I am not so close with (intentionally) who think I'm witty, eccentric, caring and giving.

I'm smart I guess, I've had loads of opportunities in part because of that and because people think I'm attractive but I seem to always eventually crack or fail. I got offered this wonderful job three months ago that pays well and really cares about the employees, but even they are saying the repellant behavior is surfacing. They are invested in me but even they don't see it as a real disorder, just a personal fault of "not doing my emotional/spiritual work".

Mental health professionals just think I'm over thinking and tried to give me setraline, that hasn't done anything and I get off it.

What do I do? I don't want to lose this job.

identify specifically what the repellant behaviors are and start doing not-that

>>18603556
That's the thing though. How do you not forget? How do you not get argumentative? How do you not improperly communicate? How do you not be in flight or fight?

I can identify them, I can try to work on them but they seem outside of my control? Can you tell someone with clinical depression or autism to not be that and it work?
>>
>>18603569
depends what you mean by "work". depends more on how they choose to proceed, what they believe is/isn't possible, etc. there's no snap your fingers solution to any of this stuff. it takes time and dedication. resilience too because you're going to feel like you're not getting anywhere with it or even backsliding sometimes. that's all speaking generally. for you specifically, developing better coping mechanisms will help with the fight or flight thing. learning to notice that you're doing the thing when you're actually doing it will help with learning how to not do it. it's a process. you can't control your thoughts and feelings insofar as there's no real way to prevent certain thoughts/feelings from arising, whether it be completely on their own or as a result of some stimuli. you can however control your thoughts and feelings insofar as you get to choose how you're going to react when some negative thought/feeling enters. namely it's up to you what you're going to allow yourself to focus on (and thereby shape your mindset). there's little tricks too, body hacks if you will -- if you're in a shit mood, smiling will help you lift out of it; if you're feeling nervous or insecure, adopting a relaxed and confident posture will make it easier to feel sure of yourself. stuff like that. emphasis on "little tricks" though. relying solely on those won't get you very far. think of it like a booster to the main stuff.

Hello, I want to move out of home. Ive applied for a job and have been scheduled for an interview. now if i get the job i think the pay is around $50k (AUD). I live in Perth though, which is one of the most expensive places to live world wide and Im not to sure what to do. i really dont like the appeal of living in a share home, especially with unknown people and my friends either live at home or are rich as fuck. does anyone have any advice on this? its not like i cant budget either; i cycle everywhere and save what money i have, not buying stuff for myself unless its necessary. i just hate the prospect of moving from a large area to some overpriced 1b1b appartment, and my understanding is that renting never pays off
