Here's my story

>25, 2 bachelor's degrees, applying for nurse anesthesia school right now
>only ever had 2 girlfriends in my life, not into hookup culture
>met last girlffriend at my job while in college
>dated for 3 years, I proposed last December
>our relationship had trouble for at least a few months before I proposed, sex was less satisfying/more problematic, I lived a few towns over while in nursing school and stress levels were high
>I moved in with her after graduating nursing school, lived with her for 4 months, we still had troubles but were still greatly in love and I proposed (1: because I wanted a life with her, 2: because I hoped it would make her happy and get things back to where they were)
>planned the ceremony out, had locations reserved for ceremony, reception, a photographer, DJ etc.
>since proposing last December we tried reading books, going on more dates, not staring at our phones all day when together, and even tried therapy out

cont.
also this photo is worth the read

>in the end we just felt more like roommates and less like lovers.... more like best friends.... >The sex for her hasn't been good for a while and she's getting the wanderlust (she's 27), I fully believe that my feelings towards the relationship are solely due to her lack of feelings in the relationship
>3 weeks ago we called everything off and moved apart (living together since last June), In the span of 2 weeks I lost my best friend, my partner, and all of my future plans went up in flames
>not related but my mom was also diagnosed with breast cancer this year (just finished chemo, lymph nodes were negative so shes doing wonderful, fingers crossed, but she had a double mastectomy and the cancer will always be in the back of all of our minds)
> so this year I have broken up with my 3 year girlfriend/fiance, all of my future plans are gone when it comes to love, don't even know if lasting love truly exists now..., and my mother was diagnosed with cancer
>I've fully gotten back into lifting though, plan on learning piano, am applying to school, and am sitting here drinking an old fashioned and wanting to talk about feels while I write my admissions essay

btw I still dream about her every night and think about her all day.... this is why I've always hated dating guys, it always ends eventually and I always come out on the losing side and miss them endlessly while they don't miss me at all

let's have a late-night chat brothers (sisters too if you're in the mood for some feels/motivation)

Do I really need a set routine when lifting? I'm experienced enough to know what to do on whatever workout day it is and not just fuck around, but is a routine necessary if I want to exceed past being an intermediate lifter?

>>38764135
Yes

Trying out my college's gym for the first time tomorrow.

I have no idea if they have a bench press or any free weights for that matter.

wat do?

Nobody cares about you.

>>>/r9k/

Is that way.

Calm down there autismo lifting takes a few hours a week at most and you have plenty of time doing the rest of that shit.

Nobody cares about you.

>>>/r9k/

Is that way.

>>38763540
Treat single arm ohp as an accessory lift, rather than a main lift
Focus on barbell for progression (especially if you are doing a linear progression model)

Also rep scheme is an important aspect of VIF management.

Barbell OHP is more prone to cause injuries and I havent found convincing arguments why they are worth the risk

I'm worse off than you buddy. Right now I'm a junior in college and I basically had no friends the entire time, max 1 study group during sophomore year but we never hanged out.

I've never gone to ANY sort of party EVER. NEVER gotten drunk while at college, too scared to buy alcohol on my own (even though I'm 21) and the only thing I have to fill my boredom is food. Especially take out during weekends and various chips like Cheez-its, Cheetos, Doritos, and Lays.

Do you have any tips on making friends? I also have social anxiety, I can't join any clubs because I don't know any. I'm trapped on a island.

>>38763194

can you elaborate on the island part?

>>38763288
I'll do it for him.

Basically he feels apart from the rest of the civilized world in his own secluded space.
Problem is, he's not trapped there, he just thinks he is. He sees a sea liner pass and instead of waving his arms to gain their attention he buries himself in the sand.
The liner represents passage to better places filled with people on their journey.

Such is the fear that somebody with social anxiety faces, but everybody finds their own way to cope, and the strong find their way out.

>Figured this would be the right thread for me to post this, since the words "Fat Fuck" and "depression" were mentioned..
Ignore this, I was going to post this as a response but decided to make a thread

>>38762146
Just eat healthy and it'll go away

>>38762146
Start building muscle. The fuck are you just losing weight for the sake of looking like a skellington for?

Do them sitting down usually.

Idk if i do these right or not. I can only hold em for half a second

>>38761104
Pretty decent side chest
Need to see a rear glute spread tho

She looks like Hillary

>>38761255
Holy fuck she actually does
She vigorously supports her too, I hope she isn't deliberately trying to do this.

Before she hit 18 she was such a cutie, she's declined rapidly after that.
Puberty did her a disservice

>>38760195
