I have serious feelings for my business partner. He told me he has similar feelings, but wants to have a strictly business relationship. I respect this in theory, but I think it will breed resentment and jealousy between us.
He also is not comfortable with being in a gay relationship, but prefers men to women sexually.
Am I wrong for continuing to pursue a relationship while we work together?
He said he is not interested in a relationship.
So what are you working towards?
>>18703666
This all started with several days of flirting that he initiated. Then it cooled down and became what it is now.
You're probably right. I should go fuck a bunch of people to get over it.
>>18703666
Also nice Satan trips.
So 2 months ago I confessed to a friend and since then I never initiate contact with her but she usually talks to me a few times a week.
I jokingly flirted with her about a week and a half ago and shes been mostly silent since then outside of contacting me yesterday. Its also weird because she seems to be under the impression I hate her. Halp
Don't worry things get better, 15 is a rough age

Okay i deserved that one

or ask her if she's interested in you

Summer has ended here, /adv... And along with it school has started
>inb4 underage
Turned 18 in early April, senior y HS for reasons I won't discuss here
Anyways so I'm in class, fairly average looking dude, small.
Now the reason I'm posting is this fucking judgy ass tall douchebag trying to belittle me all the time
Really annoying, refuses to be anything other than hostile.
My question is this
How do you deal with "cool kid" chads like this without making yourself a weirdo in class ?
How small.
Step 1: get good at fighting six years ago.
Step 2: beat his ass.
Step 3: take advantage of the system's inability to do anything while you capitalize on being the biggest man in the school.
So yesterday I slept like a babby and now I can't even close my eyes, I only drank coffee once in 12 pm and now it's 12 am...
I can't keep living inconsistently like this, anyone have some advice on how to sleep normally?
>>18703509
get a job?...
>>18703575
What?
I can't get a night's sleep and I should get a job?
Anyone please help?
I get a raging hard on almost all the time when I'm around my gf. We have yet to have sex, the most fooling around I've done is I've touched and kissed her boobs... It's hard to contain sometimes, I contain it because I don't want it to be awkward because it'll even come up when we aren't doing romantic things..
Don't worry about containing it. It's fine.
Just whip it out, OP
>>18703470
I was in a situation where I wanted to take it slow. The girl made subtle advances, and I didn't respond to them in a way that initiated anything.
Now, if the girl practically begged me, I would have sex with her ASAP. I wouldn't want to frustrate someone like you're being frustrated right now.
Sometimes people have trouble asserting what they want, especially sex, because they believe it's wrong to want sex when another person doesn't want to give it.
It looks like you two are on different pages about what you want in the relationship because you are just getting angry instead of expressing yourself.
So /adv/ today I've got a date with a chick I know she is into me, and she waits for me to make a move. The problem is, that I don't know how to invite her home when the date is over. Do I just tell her "Would you like to come into my place?" or anything like that?
>>18703393
your welcome to throw a pretense in there if you want, it makes it more fun imo. just tack on a 'to watch some netflix?' netflix is good cuz it keeps it vague, and you can put on something non commital and get to boning.
If you have any booze, just invite her over for drinks. If not, literally any other excuse (Netflix, video games if she's into that, TV, etc).
Work from there, just don't expect sex. You gotta work for that. And remember to be respectful.
Go get 'er tiger
>>18703402
>just don't expect sex
I thought most women knew that invitation home = sex
I have mild Asperger's, unnoticeable most of the time (successfully maintained my cover for 5 years since diagnosed) and I'm alright socially except for some minor difficulties with eye-contact.
However, when confronted with a female of similar age that isn't immediately revolting the issues are compounded. I can't keep eye-contact whatsoever, even with those I would consider friends, and I'm never entirely at-ease when around them.
With friends, acquaintances, celebrities and even fictional characters I am able to make a psychological analysis on some level or another, but when it comes to potential partners I can read them like a book. If that book was written in attic Greek.
Does anybody have any advice on being more comfortable and confident around women, or even on just being able to understand them better?
You can build confidence online, actually. Stop shitposting in here and go get yourself a moderation position. "They do it 4 FREE" jokes aside, you'll be forced to interact with people one way or another. Plus, if the gig is of non-negligible size, you can always tell yourself "Yeah, but I run this shit."
If you have a problem with this it's your problem. Find others like you and make do with them. Rather than wasting your time being fake.
What things should I include in a survival pack? Thanks you

if you're talking about a survival pack for going in the woods, like hunting or hiking, then you should just go to the library, or Google if you're feeling lazy

Guys, what the fuck do? I read books but it just makes me feel like a consumerwhore.
Part of the reason that I do nothing is that I feel like I have to do everything. People call you a pleb for not reading ten trillion boring books, which turns reading in to work. I look at programming and people say you can only be a good programmer if you go through SICP first, which feels like work.
I also abhor the fact that I dont have autism that lets me effortlessly work on somehting for 10 hours in a row. I read a book for 2 hours and feel like a failure when I stop reading. I have FOMO in an infinite number of ways.
I just get so damn fed up at feeling like I have to read ten trillion books. War and peace, boring dostoevsky shit, boring shakespeare shit, boring chaucer shit, boring dickens shit... and on and on. And its absurd because I already see "literary intellectuals" as hack frauds.
I'm so sick of seeing people live their lives based on doing things that genuinely enjoy them while I'm thrall to phoney pseuds. I don't even have the balls to live life according to my intuitions and just ignore what people think.
>>18703271
>I'm so sick of seeing people live their lives based on doing things that genuinely enjoy them while I'm thrall to phoney pseuds
So do things you enjoy? Why do you need to act like a pseudo intellectual? Seeing how much you care about what you APPEAR to be and not what you really ARE shows you got some issues.
aunque a todos nos hubiera o nos gustarÃa hacer lo que nos gusta no todos lo hacemos por X o por Y
esa sensación de querer hacer todo y nada y ver el mundo o a las personas desde una perspectiva solo nos queda adaptarnos o ser nosotros mismos y que la gente se acostumbre obvio sin afectar a nadie
Take your life now and you'd have escaped feeling this way in the future.
They are destroying my life!
How do I get rid of them?
I can't afford professional exterminators.
>>18703266
There's this website where you can look up questions you have and then it shows you other websites where other people have asked the same question and there's a bunch of reactions to that question offering a solution.
It's called Google, you should check it out.
>>18703307
Had a problem with these.
You have to empty your apartment.
Then apply pesticide on everything.
Curtains, foams, clothes, look for the eggs on wall corners, destroy them. Apply more pesticide. Wash everything in your house. That's how I got rid of them.

SHIT NIGGA WHAT ARE YOU DOING? THE RUSSIANS ARE STEALING YOUR INFO AT THIS VERY MOMENT!
tired of life beating my ass. how do I make it stop?
Join life's side. Stop fighting against it:
Even when you do something don't count on success. Accept failure.
>>18703180
Kill yourself, but in an individual manner.
Let me explain: hating your life has very much to do with who you are.
Kill that self and change.
Let me expand with words from a more poetic source:

This, the TL;DR of life is literally accepting what is, because it's already happening, and letting go of what had happened, because it's already over. Ignore the future, because it will come when it's time.
I thought for a long time that what I wanted in life was to achieve something very high in this field and to never give up. I did just that and I stopped hanging out with people and ended up focusing on studying and learning either at work or at home. Eventually things went south and I was being promoted and had to train other people and teach them my skills, that's kind of where I learned that other people who work with me don't really know shit and they don't put in the amount of effort as me. I stopped studying since I was always alone and always studying or working on something from work, I completely gave up on studying for certifications 3 months ago and have spent every day playing video games. Truth be told, I have no friends and this work/life is really painful on the mind since you can be really good at what you do and one day you figure out that other people actually socialize outside of work and you're the guy who never gets invited anywhere.
These days, I want to start studying again and end up getting promoted in the next few months, but for what reason? To climb the ladder again, and to make more mney?
For what reason? I'm single and alone, the other guys are married and spend their time working or sitting at home with their wife
I have nothing anymore, except this career and I used to be so busy and happy I didn't care about being alone. But now, I can only see myself being alone and miserable at this job forever
>>18703107
Dear Anon
Shitty situation yes.
Suggest going out doing shit.
Example:
go to videogame meet ups,
go to a bar and flirt or talk with random anons and anonettes,
start creating music with your 50$ guitar you just bought,
Work out,
Learn to skateboard for fun...
Anything you feel passionate about or want to try out. There is no point in money if you don't get to have fun with it
>>18703107
Either find a new career or just stop giving 100% of your life to your work. There is no reason whatsoever that you can't go out and socialize on your free time now.
>>18703189
In my experience fat people give the best hugs
>>18703107
Well. You are the example I would like to bring up to a close friend, if she didn't lose me recently due to exactly this reason.
Follow the advice of the above anon, as long as making money doesn't keep you too busy from doing it.
That aside, if you really want to give a punch to your life, join a humanitary mission.
MSF ones take 9-12 months on average, if you can convince your boss to keep your job despite this, it should be a great way to learn life.
You are put in a completely new situation with completely different goals and means.
Shit's radical yo.
How can I get out of my head (during sex in particular)?
Could you rephrase this please?
It sounds like you and I understand that idiom differently.
I always thought "get out of one's own head" meant to just do without too much thinking but your choice of words (especially"during") feels like you mean something else...
You don't mean like actually leaving your body do you?
I dont care about your problems post more THICC fuckable goddess
Also sauce
God i hate it when people sit next to me in a public restroom.
Yes.
/thread
What's your question?
>>18703178
My ego says "I shouldn't have to suffer" and then that makes me angry. Eventually all that rage will build up until I have to go into the woods with a baseball bat and smash things until I cant swing my arms anymore and then I feel better for a while.
Am I more or less balanced?
