I don't know how people deal with other people. Like how can you talk to someone or try to get close to someone if you don't know how they really feel about you, and know that anything you do might change the way they feel about you without you even knowing it?Why is it worth it to associate with people when 80-90% of them hate you and assume the worst of you without even knowing you, and that anything you say will be taken the wrong way because people want to believe you're an asshole because it's an excuse not to put forth the effort of getting to know you? Why is it worth making friends if you feel even more isolated with them than you do without them. At least I understand myself and am comfortable with myself. I don't feel like the enemy of the world when I'm in my own world.

>how can you talk to someone or try to get close to someone if you don't know how they really feel about you?
By not caring? All you can do is hope your actions have a good impact on them.
>Why is it worth it to associate with people when 80-90% of them hate you and assume the worst of you without even knowing you
You're either extremely paranoid to think that or you're a horrible person, but to come to that conclusion they would have to know you on a personal level.
>Why is it worth making friends if you feel even more isolated with them than you do without them
That's not how friends work. If you feel isolated with someone they are not your friend.

>You're either extremely paranoid to think that or you're a horrible person
I don't think I'm a good person by any means, I think I'm a well intentioned person but I'm bad at communicating, I don't think my intentions come across and people think I'm a bad person. I am trying to be more friendly and open with people but it just makes more opportunities for me to fuck things up and say something wrong, every word could be the one that destroys any possibility of future friendship. I feel like if I stay quiet at least no one will hate me so it's better than nothing. But even that doesn't seem to be foolproof.

I just can't be bothered to care about hypotheticals. They're not grounded in reality and may not come to pass. I just don't give a fuck. Deal with each bridge as you come to it.
>Why is it worth it to associate with people when 80-90% of them hate you and assume the worst of you without even knowing you, and that anything you say will be taken the wrong way because people want to believe you're an asshole because it's an excuse not to put forth the effort of getting to know you?
People generally do not think like that and you are foolish to assume that is a suitable base to start from when interacting with people. And if they do, so what? They fucked up. They misunderstood. It's on them, it's their loss. If they can't see the food you offer, fuck 'em anyway.
>Why is it worth making friends if you feel even more isolated with them than you do without them.
If you feel that way about them then don't be friends with them. Be friends with people whose company you enjoy, whose ideas challenge yours, and whom you can habe a good conversation with.
>At least I understand myself and am comfortable with myself.
You should. No one else will ever understand you as much as you.
>I don't feel like the enemy of the world when I'm in my own world.
That's a poor way to think about things. You are avoiding growth, development, change and improvement if you think cowering in your own space is preferable because it is more comfortable. You are not in your own world, you are in the same one we are all in whether you like it or not. If you don't learn about it you deprive yourself of a chance to adapt to it.

Any of you have a opinion about vaccinating baby's? We recently had a healthy beautiful baby and I was no aware of the controversy causing autism, seizures, etc.. My Fiance is so against them showing me horrible videos and storys from various mom groups on FB and blogs I am not sold on the anti vaccine and just looking for advice preferably from experience but anything to help me out of the grey area and jump in pro or anti

Firstly, there has been no reputable study ever done that showed a concrete link between vaccinations and autism. None. There is no data to support that claim.

Secondly, there have been documented side effects from vaccination however they are exceedingly rare. Not to mention that your child has a much higher chance of getting sick from a disease he or she could of been vaccinated against than suffering a severe side effect of being vaccinated.

In summary, statistically, its exponentially more dangerous to let your child walk around the world unvaccinated than it is to vaccinate them. If you're talking pure risk assessment, the greater risk is to not vaccinate.

Let your fiancee know that horrible videos and mom groups on Facebook is not science. Science has never found a link between vaccination and autism and until it does letting the health of your child depend on the paranoid ramblings of middle aged mothers who get their statistics from satirical websites and fear mongering anti-pharma blogs is irresponsible and dangerous.

fuck your fiance, take the kid to get vaccinated asap. how about you show her horrible videos of children that are stuck in medical clean rooms with life threatening diseases that were 100% preventable. or the fact that in italy you're legally required to get your children vaccinated.

Understanding pitch and tone either comes from a lot of learning and practice, or a natural talent.

Spend some time with a piano, even one of those crappy electronic keyboards and try to match the pitches produced. Doing that alone would give you a lot of practice.

I'm currently 20, and suicidal thoughts keep coming in and out of my brain.

Whenever I get put into an uncomfortable situation, I can't stop thinking about just waiting for my father to get a gun in the house so I can go ahead and use it someday. I keep thinking about walking down the street for a mile or two and standing in a ditch and pulling the trigger.

Has anybody else gone through this before?

I don't know how or why I'm going to work for 40+ years.

Welcome to depression and the real world friend. I had same thoughts. You just have to keep sane friend. I had to come to terms with life as well but im much older now (27) just focus on improving your life. If you kill yourself you will crush everyone who knows you. Either seek professional help or figure out these thoughts on your own. First step os understanding you have a mental problem. Dont let those thoughts take you over because one day you will snap out of it and realize how silly you are now in your state of mind. Stay strong.

No sense in negative thoughts.

I'll try and keep it away, but it's the natural calibration for my brain.
>>
>>18563233
try and do it, you thinker you.

I got news for you, there is no such thing as a suicidal person, they dont fucking exist. You are not suicidal.

People stand above bridges, but they dont fucking jump! They put guns in their mouths and then remove them!

A tiny portion of the population pulls the trigger, but that doesnt make them suicidal, they wanted to live the whole way through the process with every inch of their being. They fight panic as they fall headfirst into the pavement. You are a living machine. If you are homeless cold and dirty, you will want to live. If someone tortures you and cuts off your penis and gouges your eyes out you will want to live. It doesnt matter how pointless life is logically or how worthless you feel or what pain you are in.

It doesnt matter if you are happy. You fear death above all else.

Take care now, bye bye then!

Please tell me what avenues I can pursue in this situation.

On May 18 I ordered an unlocked gold 64gb iPhone SE. It was from a third party seller on amazon with very good reviews. I did my research... On the 25th it arrived I think. I had previously just had a bad experience with buying a used iPhone from a third party seller, so I thought if I bought new, I'd have no issues.

Well it turns out I was wrong. Often I get "no service" and the only thing that fixes it is either hard rebooting or safely turning it off then back on again. This happens so many times a day I lose count. It hinders the phone's ability to receive calls, and text. It's such a subtle problem that you wouldn't know it's there just by looking at the phone. I thought it was all my fault. Like maybe I just had poor connection. So that's why I waited this long.

Unfortunately since it's past the 30 day mark, there's nothing no one can do. Not amazon, not the seller. I'm shit out of luck and $422.

I made an appointment to go to an Apple Store, but what more can I do? Advice? I'm really lost and upset. I just wanted an unlocked phone for use with straight talk, not this

I have a bad advice: try buying phone not by brand, but by reviews and price.

>you will probably pay for service more than what new average android phone cost alone
>>
>>18563484
I used to have an android. But I liked iPhone more. I was simply getting an iPhone with more space than my previous.
>>
>>18563552
Why didnt you buy it from official seller then? And iPhones had problems in the past with signal. All you had to do was to touch the aluminium frame for it to lose signal. And it was simply faulty design.

How am I supposed to react to this? She was mad that her friend took her to the doctor instead of just taking her home, she says it was not a big deal. I'm not convinced that nothing happened to her and it kind of freaked me out.
I'm just having a hard time processing this. I don't want to hold it against her and I also don't think I would like to definitively know if she was raped. But I would like to at least know if she has a STD now.

I really like her but now I have these weird mixed emotions and I don't know what I should be feeling.

yes, already started therapy. It feels like going to the graveyard everytime i visit the hospital though

hey /adv/ I am in a bad area of my life. to make a long story short, I accidentally let out to my therapist that I have had suicidal thoughts recently. brought on by stress and something triggering child hood trauma.
She didn't immediately admit me the psych ward but it might be a possible outcome.
the thing is I'm terrified of going and I tried looking up positive stories online and didn't come up with much.
so does anyone have positive stories from time spent in the psych ward?

>>18563167
You mentioned suicidal thoughts. If she was going to admit you it would have been immediately. I've got patients who cop to suicidal thoughts pretty much every day. If you don't have intent and a plan, if I don't think you're going to die before your next session, you go home. Clearly you convinced her.

I don't think most people realize just how common thoughts, or even vivid fantasies, of suicide are. The reality is that most people have them and the overwhelming majority never act on them. Virtually everyone you meet is here because they made a choice, at some point, not to kill themselves. You're seeking help, you seem to want change.

How do you react to someone casually and snarkily saying racial slurs at you?

Like, for example instead of referring to you as your name they just call you nigger, sandnigger, chink, etc (not going to specify which) and give you a shitfaced grin every time they say it

If you react aggressively, it's just gonna add to their confirmation bias that x race are all vile barbaric subhumans, but if you don't respond at all, the guy gets the pleasure of racially "dominating" you or some shit putting you at his submission.

I really hate these types of people who just feel really good about belittling someone for no reason because they think they're ultra enlightened from fringe corners of the internet or just plain assholes, but I'm not an aggressive person at all and don't know how to react whenever this happens so I just let them do it

Almost everyone.
Most people are good, but some will ruthlessly use you for whatever they can for as long as you will put up with it.The worst actually use your compassion and tendency to forgive as a lever to control you.
You get over it with anger.
You don't deserve to be treated poorly. Anyone who treats you like that does not deserve your love. Focus on something you like for yourself (I like motorcycling) then find a better person who deserves you.

You have yourself.
You don't NEED anyone else, although other people are great to have around.
One of the BS things about how groups work is that being needy puts other people off, so when you really need a friend, it's hard to get one.
The way out of this is to not need other people but be good to them. Soon you will have many friends.

I'm not supposed to sleep with her friends, or anyone younger than 22 (lied about the last girl I fucked being 22, when I knew she was 21.)

I'm also meant to delete lews photos and videos I got of her from my phone, and store them on a hard drive instead, but I'm secretly not in a hurry.

She's not allowed to give me greivance over my exes, since she fucked her ex after we got together.

Both of us have to use condoms with other people, or at least be tested since then before fucking, if we neglected to use them with anyone we're with in between.

Can't think of anything else, other than to always be honest. If we do anything the other person doesn't like, we tell each other, and figure out a common ground.

We've been dating since late November, and been LDR since June.

Strained my ankle today, but I've got a movie night date on Sunday. Should I cancel?

The date is with a girl I don't know too well - we're really hitting it off, and we set up this date, as a first at one of our places.


Today, I was playing football (the real one, not American) and sprained my ankle pretty bad - it's swollen, and I reckon it's gonna be all purple tomorrow. Should I cancel the date on account of my disgusting ankle?
