Open up your phone book. Go to the yellow pages. Look under "Escorts," or "Escort Services."

Go to a bar and smooth talk a chick who's had a few. It ain't fucking hard op. You are just a faggot.

Shouldn't even be called feminism

All waves of feminism are bad, third wave is just expanding on previous bullshit.

Could be a million things but if you're otherwise asymptomatic it's probably nothing to worry about.

Do some research and see if it's ringworm. I had that once and it started looking like that

As the other anon said, could be a million things.
I had a similar looking thing that was a symptom of my hay fever allergy. My mom gets a thing like that due to stress and a weakened immune system. If you're really worried about it go have a doctor check it out

Whatever pays well and that you can stand doing. If that's being an electrician, then be an electrician. You can still make great money doing it.

>>18557366
I know that electricians make good money, but just about anyone can be an electrician, it isn't hard, so I'm wondering if I should go higher, but I don't really know where to go if not being an electrician.

Electrical engineer.

If sex isn't important to you then why care

>>18557327
Let me guess. You're fat.

Lose weight or offer a threesome with your fine ass friend.

>>18557332
Not fat. No friends.

>>18557325
Who cares?

>>18557359
Cool. Thanks man.

>>18557325
what has been the effect on your life ?
you listed causes but no effects, also I'm interested

>>18557323
I'm more turned on by slender willowy and flexible than I am by the ballerina thing as a whole. Fit and flexible makes me diamonds every time though, I also love gymnast chicks for exactly this reason, even if they tend to be beefier than the ballerina build.

Look up what happens to ballerinas' feet. That'll cure this fetish up right quick.

>>18557393
Like men care about women being hurt by their fetishes

money and a legal 18+ ID

This is shit you should have planned before you know the day you are actually running away.

>>18557310
>money and a legal 18+ ID

Pretty much what this guy said, start looking for a job. If you don't have money you're fucked unless your idea of a good time is fighting with homeless people.

Good luck OP

Is there something you can do to improve your appearance? New haircut, grow/shave beard, wear makeup? What exactly bothers you about the way you look?

>>18557295
I want to kill myself because I can't deal with the ugliness of the world.

>>18557294
I think so, but I'm of the opinion that life is to short to sit around and not see the world. Mind you I've done plenty of what you're doing, but I never truly felt alive until I studied abroad for university. My only regret is that I didn't do it more before I graduated.

At the end of the day though you want what you want. My advice would be to try it and get out of your comfort zone. Best case you have fun and grow as a person, worst case you learn you never want to do that. Either way it's an experience which is really the only things we truly own.

ehhhhh. travel is becoming a bit of a staple, something you're SUPPOSED to do, you are basically saying 'i dont want to take a two week vacation with my gf'. it sounds crazy.

but ive heard crazier. especially if sights dont realyl do anything for oyu. im honestly not much different. i keep thinking of making plans to travel but i would have no idea what to do.

i dont like 'sight seeing' i never did (traveled a lot as a kid) and just looking at buildings and old shit bores me.

on the flip side im also not a party person. the idea of just traveling to basically party in different locations seems silly.

so at the ned of the day if you feel fulfilled by the rest of your life then yeah, why not, stay home.

You're a lazy fucking pleb, and unless you want to stay that way [you don't, unless you're also a retard], start changing it now.

How often do you masturbate? I'll go on a limb and say at least 3x a week. I'll be that guy: Stop masturbating. You waste your energy, your drive to go out and meet people, and you become a regular all-around sack of shit, and anyone who tells you otherwise, I guarantee, is a wanker.

Go adventure with your girlfriend while you're young, or else look back in the future and realize what a dumb cow of a faggot you were.

What about dogs scares you so much?
Did have a bad experience with dogs as a child?
Did you not have any interactions with dogs as a child?

>>18557278
Obviously scared of being bit.

If i did it was probably traumatic since i can't remember anything about it.

Are these random dogs or dogs of people you know? If they're random dogs, that's a good fear. Most aren't trained, and will fuck with you even if you are 10 feet away from their property.

... Why the fuck did you tell a random whore about your girlfriend? Autism.

Your girlfriend has probably also had sex with another guy. She said she didn't want to know about it, so don't tell her. If she does find out, she's most definitely going to go get some side dick ASAP.

You should tell the whore to not worry about your business and keep banging her and just stop sweating shit.

That girl might be suspicious of you, thinking that you and LDR girl are in an actual solid relationship and that you cheated on her. No one wants to be the homewrecker, idealistically because they're not morally bankrupt, and cynically because they don't want to get a tooth knocked in or a car keyed by a spurned lover. If that girl is pretty nosy she may go to LDR girl and tell her, and it may hurt her that you had a one night stand. That being said, you both agreed that it was ok to mess around with other people. And YOU not telling is less keeping a secret than it is a courtesy towards her - she very wisely knows that she shouldn't go looking for info she doesn't want to find. And at the very least, it's not really an emotional betrayal - you fucked some chick: it's not like you're trying to groom a second potential girlfriend. So she may find out, which I think is unlikely, but I don't think it will be relationship-shattering even if she does.

>>18557208
I say serves you right.You should have thought about that before you did it.I hope she tells your gf and she will go for another dick ASAP to make it even

>>18557204
Stop talking through text/social media. Do it in person, it's much more interpersonal then say a "Hey" "How's your day?" "Good, HBU?" --- Boring! Even if you wrote a wall of text no one is going to read through the whole thing, just like no one is going to read through a whole wall of text on 4chan.

>>18557215
But I don't always have the option to do that.

You don't have to do interesting things in your day to day life to be an interesting person. It's a personality thing.

Ok man this is going to seem harsh.

They conduct group interviews for roles like this because the staff turnover and drop out rate from application through to the first week is very high. It is about the only economical way they can sustain staffing.

The ideal call centre candidate is bright enough to follow a script, but not intelligent enough to get bored and attempt to deviate from it or game their systems. They also don't want you to get ideas above your station such as not wanting to be monitored with automatic ranking software designed to enter you in a competitive rat race amongst your fellow workers alongside penalising you for taking more than a 2 minute 'personal' break (piss break) per day. They'll even try to sell the 'personal' to you as a caring thing oh sometimes you get an angry customer and we KNOW you want to help, but you know, you just can't help everybody *rolleyes* and we recognise that our empathic staff sometimes take it personally so you need to log off? Take a few minutes to gather your thoughts? You can take a personal once a day and we encourage it so you don't get too burnt out. Never mind that you'll be using that to piss and it'll be 2 minutes not a few and if you login 15 seconds late you'll be expected to make it up and your sadistic prick supervisor selected because he enjoys sweating everybody and is stupid enough to trade indifference for hatred and another 2 pennies an hour will direct long winded callers to you 5 seconds before your 15 seconds making it up time ends and you'll be expected to finish the call even if it means you miss your bus home and that'll be to punish you for logging back in 15 seconds late from your so caring 'personal' which you never get to use to prevent burn out anyway.

Equally though even if you are perfectly suited to the role they don't want you to stay forever because there is almost no career or progression and eventually even the most bovine get burnt out and start to cause problems.

>They conduct group interviews for roles like this because the staff turnover and drop out rate from application through to the first week is very high

Why is this?

As far as I know stated in the two roles available one is just helping people through online-chat about tech product queries and helping them choose what they should purchase and the other is helping people with shipping and order queries over the phone.

I could understand people getting burnt out doing outbound cold calling trying to shill some product, but inbound seems a lot more comfortable.

>>18557189
Ok. First off not all places are like this, but I imagine if they remain profitable as businesses all places will eventually be like this.

Most companies no longer have in house call centres. They contract out the work to specialist call centres who can do the work cheaper for multiple companies tendering temporary contracts. They do this by not having the same moral or ethical compulsion to staff that companies which need to have positive reputations to sell to the customer as manufacturers so they can work cheap. As a result they want you to work fast and to a script.

The whole process is monitored. You login in the morning and you'll be expected to be there early enough to login a few seconds before your shift (pay) actually starts. The time you take to answer a call, the time you spend on a call, the time you take to update notes will all be linked and graded against everybody else. The same with break time, any 'down' time, any time you aren't on a call, any less than excellent customer feedback you'll potentially have to justify. They'll be targets just slightly out of reach with minor rewards to make it seem fun, but real punishments for those who consistently fall in the lower bracket.

The system is built so a fair amount are always at risk though. They want job insecurity and they want reasons to dismiss staff to keep turn over high because you only need to be able to follow a script and they don't want you to be there too long because then they have to worry about pay rises and complaints as staff get wise to the unfairness of the system. The fact they are on contract work as a company means if they lose a contract they might suddenly need to downsize significantly so they keep the staff turnover high so they can lose so many staff so quickly without having to pay out redundancy for long service.

Lots of people don't want to work like this so every week is like, 10% new starters.

and I want to clarify that I have zero interest in blackmail, trying to get her in trouble other this, reporting it to a higher up, etc. I dont think they'd care much anyway because theres nothing tying her to the organization on her page and theres nothing really specifically saying who she is, her whole name and which state she's in isnt even there. Id have no way of finding her on there if I didnt see it on her phone

>>18557143
Youre disgusting and creepy. Dump your girlfriend she deserves better.

Thats a little harsh
