bump

Just keep faking it, fuck what anyone thinks as long as you get those sweet checks. Also put it on your resume.

>>18552935
you just have to stop fucking up. I mean i know it sounds easy, but just make sure you are trying your best.
it is ok to make mistakes, it is part of the learning process. but if you keep making the same mistakes over and over.... you aren't learning.
I've trained a lot of newcomers in the various jobs I've had and I understand that these trainees are still learning. It sounds like your trainer isn't a POS so you should be able to learn a lot from her. The best thing you can ask her is for her to clearly state your mistakes. that way you know what to work on.

Yes it can work if you both want to be with each other more than a hook up. I say go for it. Just make sure she's not married.

Each person has to decide for themselves. From a purely biological perspective, many of her good years are used up and she will soon reach the point where her kids have higher chances of birth defects and not being able to have kids altogether.

I knew a girl that was super into me like all over my dick into me who was 6 years older then me and that was enough for me to not even consider it. Just wasn't interesting to me.

>>18552934
32 and met her a bar? I dunno dude. I wouldn't get too serious with her.

Bump for interest

>>18552880
"Be yourself." You hear that time and again. What it means is that you just address them how you would address one of your guy friends. Girls are people as well, the difference being this girl doesn't know you, know she wouldn't be approached unless you thought she was cute, and you want to give it to her.

No difference.

Approach these girls only at the right time. Casual flirting, trying to get the number from a waitress is fine. Trying to get a table with her after her shift is not. Hit up some bars, talk about her clothes, her looks, the dumbass in a booth, whatever. "Have I seen you before?" as a legitimate question instead of a pickup line is my usual thing. Not exactly for picking up though. That's different.

Stop being a cuck, and gauge her interest level first to avoid awkwardness. A woman knows if she's gonna fuck you or not in the first 10 seconds of interaction. There's no magic formula, but DO NOT show any signs of nervousness or fear. Women are more emotional than men and will feel nervous and freaked out because YOU ARE. Don't smile, you'll look like a faggot. At best smirk arrogantly or not at all.

Women already know you're trying to fuck, but they're trying to see if you're actually cool or just faking it. You have to believe you're the hottest shit in the world.

If she is already interested she'll laugh at whatever dumbass shit you say. I don't recommend just approaching strangers (even at a party) but if you must then just open with something that will pique her interest higher, and just escalate. Think of all the lame shit a guy would say to a girl and avoid it. You're not here to discuss 2deep4u philosophy or talk about how pretty she is for half an hour. You're here to fuck. Keep it fun and mindless, like you're speaking to a teenager.

Start excercising, will help clear it. Drink plenty of water and wash your face daily.

>>18552845
I do actually lift and run and I think that's my problem. I get very sweaty and acne where I sweat.

I currently shower twice a day, change my bedding as often as possible, drink lots, use cream I got from the doctor and special face wash.

I've still got lots :/

Some might be ingrown hairs. I get lots of my chin hair.

>>18552837
If you have a weak jaw grow a beard other than that there's not much you can do

By wondering if I'll ever be good enough.

>>18552814
Either rise above it or accept it. Everyone thinks they're special and it's not pleasant when you realize that you are actually Joe Blow.

>>18552814
I try to improve myself instead of just sitting back and accepting it

Do you put meat first or cheese first, in the Pirozhki?

Also, say that you're sorry and want to get back together or move on.

Sorry about all of that.

>>18552806
You need to give her time to cool off. Then try to salvage the relationship if at all possible but don't force it if she's not ready yet.

>>18552790
Do it once a week, and skip the porn.

>>18552790
Get into edging and buy yourself good lube sometimes to spice it up

Get a girlfriend.

>>18552775
You should contact a dermatologist and properly they will present you with options. I am guessing some sort of laser treatment is in order.

>>18552785
That's the plan, i was just wondering if others might have had something done. Laser seems promising but it'd be pretty expensive
Also for whatever reason the marks on my chest are raised up a bit so no idea how they'd effect it

It's kinda gotten to the point were i'm worried it's skin cancer or something

>>18552804
Well I hope it isn't cancer, and yeah laser treatment is expensive. I dont think there is anything you can do about it youself. The ones on your chest are barely noticeable though.

I don't even understand insurance coverage when it comes to mental health professionals, but /adv/ is useless for this kind of shit beyond telling you to go to one, they're totally incompetent

>>18552763
The therapist that worked for me was Mindfulness based, try and look for that, may work for you too.

Also don't be afraid to cry I didn't and I think it hindered me a bit

You have 2 choices:
1. Ask your regular doctor for a referral
2a. Call your health care provider and ask them
2b. Go online to your health care provider and search for one

Optional:
Some insurance comes with EAP (employee assistance program.
Call them up and ask for help.

>>18552760
Nope, that is a kakemano. Japanese scroll with drawings in it to be blunt.

>>18552772
it's clearly chinese dude
wall scrolls aren't exclusive to japan

>>18552783
Try reverse searching OP's pic, its clearly a Japanese Kakemono.

>>18552728
Are you sure the timetable is right? I mean, first checks are usually the longest because checks are always 1 week behind from the actual hours. Like lif you started work on the 1st of the month is a Monday, you shouldn't get paid until like 19th on a Friday.

>>18552728

keep calling, keep calling every day to everyone, make them know you mean business and you won't back down. Make them know by the fact that you call, that they know who's calling them without them picking up the phone.

Speak to your manager and make them write a note or something to give to HQ because they keep doing the blaiming game right. Get on paper that everything's cool at the bank and get that to HQ. Ask HQ if you can see the deposit dates to your account or the account you use the money from you get from work. Get the depositpapers to the bank and look if they can figure out if they ever received anything.

GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING OP

You could also make your story a tiny bit worse to keep the pressure up if it may help.

good luck

>>18552741
Yes, HR confirmed that they processed the payment for the 21st, for X amount, and she even read me the dates it took effect on.

Exact dates
>started July 5th
>coworkers got paid on July 7th
>i worked several shifts in between
>i shouldve gotten paid on Friday, 21st

You told him he doesn't have to hold back. He isn't. He brings up this subject because he likes to be sexual with you. If you dislike it, move on to someone with a lower sex drive, because his won't change just because you asked him to

>>18552656
Ehhhhhh I was hoping you wouldn't say something like that. I really like him as a guy. His sex drive is just way higher than mine. That's the only problem that needs fixing. If I can have my cake and eat it too that would be better for me.

>>18552640
You should really just talk to him about this not us.

Think about this. You said you started it so maybe he isn't even that sexual and just wants to show you that he can "keep up" and be assertive and consistent in pleasing you.

Worst case scenario he doesn't tone it down, but I'm betting he will.

> 1. no fucking click bait

You need a lot of clickbait man.

>>18552613
This isn't clickbait.
I am actually looking for advice

>>18552571

I did some tests years ago, and the results were that I had a bad visual memory.
How well do you visualize things?
I'm terrible at it but what helps is moving the cognitive load away from visual memory, e.g. don't try to match the pictures in your mind's eye to the pictures on the page, but rather make verbal story that you sub vocalize.

So for the first image you are looking for "The Star comes before the Sun." And "Four Squares on a Ski slope"

If the idea of a mind's eye doesn't make much sense to you then you may have aphantasia.

>>18552639
>>18552639
>"The Star comes before the Sun." And "Four Squares on a Ski slope"

The advantage is that matching the phrase "four squares on a slope" to the image will find both the sequence that starts at the end of line 1 and runs onto line 2 as well as the duplicate sequence on line 4, when a purely visual method might miss the first instance of the sequence... BUT the disadvantage is that the visual method is much much faster for people who don't have memory impairments.

ALSO if you use coping mechanisms like building stories out of the images then you may score well enough to hid any impairment you might have which won't actually do you any favors in the long run. As you will continue to struggle with memory problems while your paper work says you are "normal".
