My lifts are progressing steadily but I'm realizing years of not serious lifting and bad programming has given me some serious imbalances. My rear delts are tiny compared to my front delts and my triceps are huge compared to my biceps. I also bench more than I squat even though I can Diddly 4pl8. I'm all fucked up, so I'm having to retool my plan.
Also this girl I went on a few dates with dropped a bomb on me too and I havnt decided what to do with it yet.
>super qt girl
>big Disney eyes, Zoey dechanel bangs and a super tight body, was cheerleader and cheer coach

>tells me a story about being drugged and raped while she was unconscious by a guy she knew in college

>they later caught the guy after he did it to someone else, and took photos
>long story short, she's on medication and insists on protection, but she doesn't have sex outside of a committed relationship as she feels it would be dangerous/irresponsible
So I just held her for a while. I mean if all that is true then what happened to her is terrible. But there's a part of me that questions the story a little because she told it in such a relaxed way. Maybe ive just been on 4chan for too long. I'm also just scared for my dick.
But I really do like this girl.

ffs, here i was, broken up with thinking about using tinder

>>
>>42699286
Well she had been really honest and open about a lot of other things, even embarrassing ones, I feel like she would have just said she had herpes rather than make up a story like that. And I personally know enough girls that were sexually assaulted in college (even stopped a few from happening) that I know it's plausible. But 4chan has made me paranoid.

Just started working out recently after a break up, feeling good, finally eating enough
Then the other night I was told that she was cheating on me the last few weeks of the relationship, that means I've now had 2 serious girlfriends, both of them cheated on me

I have no idea how I'm supposed to trust new people anymore, the ones I do trust will probably be it for awhile. There's one girl I trust in my life, we're really good friends and she's pretty much the only person I can see myself wanting to be with because I actually trust her, but I don't think there will be anything there ever cause we're so close as friends
Although after being dumped me and her felt like we did have something, but it sorta just disappeared and we're kinda back to how we were, but I'd prefer to just to have friends around right now

I feel you
It's always "you rarely talked to me" blabla bullshit, the whole give AND take fact of a relationship isn't something she wanted to do i guess
Sucks cause the sex was not from this world with her, then again i blew her mind in bet so there's something she'll always remember

Things are going well but still major improvemenrs needed. Love my body but want to fix imperfections/get stronger. Havent had sex in... 4 months but madeout with random qte girls, after i get my license im moving out of dads house. Finished studies but want a dif job, hopefully I'll get a random decent job by end of year.

Miss my ex a lot. Also bumped into ex friend from two years ago, i know its petty but i looked way better than him so i felt bit up myself after that.

All in all things are getting better :)
>>
The diet part is insanely easy for me to keep up with.

The actual energy and motivation to exercise is the tough part. I wake up sometimes just mentally defeated before the day even starts, get 1/4th through my routine, and just dont have the energy to go on.

Dieting is shit and needs rework

>>
>>42699200
There's like a 80/20 chance that she is lying/tellingtruth. What a convenient thottie excuse, do you really think she would tell you "I slept around a lot in college and caught herpes because im a slut who fucks black guys without protection" ?. Think of the statistical likelihood of two unlikely things compounded into one rape x somebodywithherpes. It's 100000xmore likely she was sleeping around with football negroes. In any case it's not worth it to risk getting herpes for some loose poon bro.

I'm ok. My lifts are good, bench is finally going up again. I have free gym access because I ended up back in my hometown and my high school allows alumni to use their weight room whenever.

Starting a couple part time jobs to keep the lights on while I'm back in school getting a masters. I'm not living lavish but things are starting to stabilize.

Awesome. I'm going to Greece tomorrow morning for a friend's wedding (I need to get up at 3am though but oh well) and I smashed my session today. I'd been struggling to do 5x5 42.5kg OHP for AGES, but absolutely fucking smashed it today, in fact my final set turned into 6 reps because I miscounted.

My form has gotten a lot better because I hurt my lower back a while back; I had to take 2 weeks off lifting and had near constant back pain during it. Now I'm better I'm autistic as fuck about my form and posture. I guess that has something to do with it too.

Also, instead of doing it from the rack, I now do it from the floor. I have to do seated OHP because my gym ceiling is low and I can't fully extend my arms without hitting the ceiling, so I just lean over and row the weight up to my chest, place it on my lap, then do a half body clean to get it to my chest. I feel this may have helped my muscle development for OHP as well.
>>
>>42699712
First of all thanks for asking

Second, it didn't go well and I will explain why and my explanation might make me look kind of dumb to fellow engineers or people in the IT industry.

I was hired in a big company and brought onto some large clients, everything that has my hands in it is completed 100% and there is one client I seem to be having issues with gaining respect

The last person who worked here was the named "LEAD" for this client and I took over that role, what I have found out the hard way is there have been tons and tons of project behind my back and nobody let me know what was going on or what needs to happen since there are other departments who handle everything but when they have a hard question and they need an answer they come to me and it makes me look stupid and not knowledgeable since I don't actually know how everything for this client works

The issue here is multiple depts are involved and they do things without letting my dept know, when these things get completed and I am the last to know they expect me to know everything about the solution even though I was not the person who designed it

ALSO

Heree is the worst part of working with this dept

There is a war going on now between depts, they ended up saying the work I did actually wasn't correct and they had many "failures" in the design. Once again, I did not actually design this and they tried to pass the blame onto me without being honest about it

Also, when I have a question on what EXACTLY does not work or what problems the other depts are seeing with the solution, they tell me to my face there is no problems or they do not know about it, than I stand there and smile, and ask again and they say oh, yea maybe it is related to this or that...
>>
>>42699867

Basically, I'm in a tough spot since this is the worst client I have had to work with

Picture you being the presidnet and you don't actually do any work since your vice president or your staff actually do the work and you are expected to know every little detail even though they hide information from you.

lol how the FUCK did that happen?!? impressive desu.

>need to overcome the fear of going to the gym again

Dont bite off a huge chunk at once mate. Its easy for people here to talk Big when we have solid routines. But starting a routine is the hardest part. Remember once you gain momentum its surprisingly easy to keep that momentum.

When I re-re-restarted going to the gym I would go and hardly work out at all for a week or 2. Then slowly ramp up.

I tell total beginners who have Fear that they should just go to the gym, change clothes, sit on an exercise bike for 5 mins, then pretend they got an urgent text, go shower and change clothes again, then leave. Then do this until the irrational fear of the gym has subsided, and then you can do the next step of some weightlifting.

Brother moved back in from his apartment he had with GF. Probably the hardest person I've ever lived with in my life.

He's dropped out of college, 23 working minimum wage. Then he keeps saying shit to me (I'm 18) like "I'll be making a 16 dollars an hour before the end of the year"

Or

"My girlfriend got a job at a radio station now she will be getting free concert tickets, working with the popular local DJ's and making 100k in 2 years".

He likes to play "devils advocate" which basically means he doesn't agree with me on fucking anything.

I ask him to get up because I thought I left in the couch and he says "you haven't sat here in days why would it be here" and just really stupid shit like that.

It's like he's 5 but he is 23.

Meanwhile me and my mom are cool as fuck about him living here. We didn't care when his college grad girlfriend and him were living here at 22.

Nobody gave a fuck but these two. Now he is like "oh are you sure allowed to eat here" and all this stupid fucking shit.

Literally moved all his stuff out in 1 day when his gf was visiting her parents out of state, one week later he is talking about moving back in. He is over there everyday.

Always telling me how great she is (she is fucking ugly).

This is actually one of our largest clients, when things fuck up and they will they will look at me for answers and my own dept will probably be disapointed in me. There is nothing in place to cover my ass here and it sucks being in a position where someone might fuck something up and you hear about it months later on why didn't I do this or that. Really, if you knew there was issues with the design than report them asap

But they continued with the project and I find out LITERALLY three months later that there have been issues....

Good luck talking to them face to face or getting them all on the same bridge/conference call to answer questions

This job fucking sucks and I make over 100k.......

Things will fail, and I will be held responsible

My answer can not be this is the other depts fault....

The real problem is he knows I am easily going to be much more successful than him and I'm only 18 so not exactly everything is coming to fruition.

The stock market, lifting, 1 year associate degree, martial arts.

Meanwhile he got a free ride from my mom. Got a job paying 13 an hour, went to college for it but then dropped out halfway through to "tour the country with his band".

Fuck man I would KILL to get a free ride like that. Fuck him.

Bottom line: No dont.

You cant just tell someone a story like that in a relaxed way. Usually traumatic stories are told when a woman is at her most vulnerable state and she can trust you. Not in relationship of less than 1month of meeting. To be honest the way she told you ,"relaxed" , says it all. She told you the truth but in the way that it can be accepted. Most likely she slept around a lot in college and caught herpes from a guy she regretted having a one night stand with. The last nail in the coffin would be to confirm whether or not she was in a sorority.

The choice is yours really. But just to make it clear you go through with this you have to tell everyone you meet (if this relationship doesnt pan out) that you have herpes. Just know man, women can lie to

Depends what you're looking for in your career. Are you only trying to do reserve stuff or active duty? The fact that you only brought up the coast guard and national guard leaves me to believe you want to stay local. Either way, you can't go wrong; you'll have way more opportunities than the average nurse stuck in some clinic

Got a confession. I worked out during summer a lot, 6 times a week strictly, but i never got into eating properly. Low amounts, low calories, not enough food. And as I moved and got into a uni and got into a new apartment where Igotta do stuff for myself, I've been lazy and mostly just eating bread, skipping dinner, etc.

I've lost countless of gains PURELY based off the fact I've always eaten too little. And my issue is not even apetite, my apetite is on point, I can eat just as much as anyone else, but when other people get hungry, they go "I should make some food" and make some food, while I go "Meh" and don't eat. I'm 6'3 160 pounds right now, of course not skinnyfat, just really low, decently defined musclemass. I'm gonna change this up, but I don't know what the hold up is. Why am I doing this to myself?
>>
>>42700394
Well if you do coast guard maybe we will cross paths one day
Also I started with 5x5, then did upper/lower when I plateaued. PPL was a little rough for me because I don't like hitting the same muscles back to back in a workout, i basically alternate push and pull workouts into one upper body day.

It's going well but a little rough. Lifts are doing good, but ever since I got back to uni for my final semester, I keep thinking about my ex gf. I used to love her and I keep thinking about the break up and so on. I imagine it's just because I'm lonely and need to get laid but it's maddening. I know we wouldn't work again barring a miracle of god but I can't this out of my head.

POORLY
I've been hung up on this girl in my grad cohort for basically a year now. She's in a relationship with a fuccboi (never ever fall for girls in a relationship, first and last time this shit will ever happen) but we used to email often and regularly for several months, and she's literally the most relatable human I have ever met in my life. I come from a shit abusive childhood so my ability to connect with people is few and far between. We haven't spoken in private in months and our friendship has dissipated, lots of context I won't even bother to go into.

I am unattractive and I don't connect with people well which is why I have no other crush to help me move on, plus seeing her regularly each week is harmful. I am in the process of trying to set up a dating app and maybe meet a girl through that. Luckily, I have close friends who are willing to help me with such a thing and goddamn I hope I can find a relationship. I am sick and tired of being lonely.

T-thanks /fit/, you told me I could be an alpha
>>
>>42701872
For me, it is because of the primary reason I listed above, and I have also never been in a relationship so I am abysmally lonely. While I am not 100% sure how she would be as a partner, I feel that I could be a very healthy partner for her.

I hope we get out of this somehow, brother. This is hell.
>>
>>42701984
Good luck. I guess the only option we have is waiting. Two things can happen. 1. She gets out of the relationship and gets available. 2. You just forget about her with time. I try to act as the second possibility is what will happen, cause the first one is improbable.
We just have to acknowledge we like the cunt and be Ok with it. With time this faggy feeling will stop.

In both our cases it seems that crippling loneliness is the main cause. I have friends, a best friend and I have options available for other girls, but I feel extremely lonely and depressed. Maybe that's it.

Good luck brother

That being said, if her story IS true, then... shit sucks. She could be telling the truth, and genuinely a good person, but... think about your dick! Even with medication that controls flair ups, it's honestly not worth it to bang her unless you're willing to marry her. And even then, any children you have could be affected with it as well.

Anon, I'll tell you something that won't help you at all. But you might need to hear it anyway, and maybe some gears will churn in that noggin of yours.

Only ever had 1 IRL gf. Long story short, convinced her to get abortion (we were broken up before she found out, but together for years). Felt like shit; I'm the one who convinced her.
Later I got an online gf. She's the super attached clingy type. I know it's not going to work out. She doesn't.
So that's two myself, but I'm in the position where I can't trust myself to not hurt people.
So... what do I do? What do you do? Where do we go from here?
Objectively, you know that you're not the problem. The girls who cheated on you, that was their doing. You're innocent. You can go on to love again, as long as you re-conceptualize the 'betrayal' with "jessice and rebbeca" instead of "women" or "my (ex) gfs)".
Place the blame on the individual instead of their category, and you should do just fine. Hard, but you'll meet an Ashley who isn't your jessica or rebecca, and your brain will sort out the rest.

Make sense? I hope so. I can't stress how vital it is that you classify these events properly, or it will fuck with your hetero-relationship dynamics.

If your mind classes them as "people close to me" instead of gfs then it could even fuck with your normal friendships as well.

Take a few days, weeks, months even. But assert in your mind it's temporary, or else you'll float forever adrift, eschewing normal relationships [spoiler] like me [/spoiler] .

>Why do you feel that what you have is not enough, friend?

I'm really empty in life right now and kind of losing my life to depression. I actually have a way to honestly get promoted and make over 125k in the next 6-9 months if I dedicate myself and start studying for something that will take me to the next level in this field. I am worried and I stopped studying 3 months ago to actually play video games everyday after work .I am kind of in a bad spot right now since I moved half way across the country for my career and things actually ended up working great, Promoted a couple times in 2016/2017 and now at 100k, Currently I'm at the point where I don't know if I should pursue a certification for a bump in my career/salary or I should actually start looking for a job with less skill and less pay. I'm kind of depressed

Basically if I would be 100% honest with myself, I have two real career options.

3 certs = 125k 6-9 months of studying
3 other certs = 125k 6 months of studying

This isn't a joke btw, and I just don't know what to do anymore. I'm in a good area and live in the tech center of the state. I have a chance to make a lot of money but I have to be honest again, I am alone and have nothing in life except this job

she was drunk and fucked and got herpes. then she made up a lie that is capable of destroying lives and attached this to her minor inconvenience in life.

You make 35k?

When a cybersecurity company tried to hire me I told them minimum 57.500k a year or I walk. I used to be a strong man, now with more money and more loneliness I have become a joke :)

Well, back on subject many certs are "in" right now however you have to find out what you want to and where you want to go. The field is growing right now and things are changing (My company is driving one of the biggest changes in tech for the next 3 years) and certs are important but it depeneds on what you want to do.

Rather me explain everything to you, try to do some research and follow the graph on what you actually want to do and take your career. Also ,I have done hiring as well and let me tell you it isn't fun since they want someone to meet all the people coming in and they want to tell everyone over the phone all the things they now about but once they face me in a panel interview they literally don't know much about the field at all...

>>42702830
Well, realistically speaking, if you're essentially catatonic because drugs or alcohol (or both), and someone fucks your unconscious body, yeah, I'd consider that rape.

And it's surprisingly easy for that to happen.
Girl gets up, leaves her drink because fucking idiot, someone slips pill in, she drinks it, bam.

Again, I normally agree with you. Going out like that is setting yourself up for it. Just that a 2% probability is still able to happen.

I think this self-awareness is very valuable as you realize that in your heart of hearts, the subjective 'happiness' preached by social normality does not apply to you (nor me, so I can relate there.) Do you want a ~brand new house~ or anything? Be honest. We're anonymous here.

Yea there is

I work from home, roughly 100% remote. Some of you may not recognize my posts but I post often. I also travel for work and fly around the country. No office for me I am remote and can work anywhere in the US or the world if I figure out how I can still be connected to the grid and working phone for conference calls....

>like what certification deals with shit that is done in the field

Do you mean field tech install? Technically that is considered low tech in the IT field but from my experience I love working with the guys in the field who actually might not understand what we are doing or the what the companies goals actually are but they are great guys to work with and field install techs make upwards of $200+ in a day

>I know more about the it world and comptuer science than 99.999999% of people who have not succeeded in said world.

Sounds like a talking point, if you know what you are doing in your field don't mention you are better than others or you know more than anyone in the field. Frankly there can't be one person who knows more than anyone, I have had that same attitude for a long time, guess why I am alone now

I always thought I was the best and even if I might have been and even achieved more than the people under my command they still don't need to be told you don't know as much as me etc...

>Walk softly and carry a big stick

I stopped telling people IRL about my achievements a long time ago

How old are you btw?

>tinder

>girls
Eh. I don't have too much hands on experience, to be honest. But best I can say is that some girls like to flirt, but kind of just levels off after that.
Think of less scandalous bar chicks. Only without the bar.

If I was maybe interested in a girl I would text for a while though. If you have multiple numbers, maybe dedicate 10 min. every other night to just texting all of them pretty much the same message.
"Hey, I'm free on friday, wanna go with me to X?"
first one to respond gets it. Or maybe just dedicate a day to each girl? (don't juggle more than 7 tho or my fool proof strategy can't work)

>Do you want a ~brand new house~ or anything?
Yes, I pay over $1400 a month in rent for a one bedroom apartment and the govt takes $2500 a month in income taxes. I could be saving more money and living better in a house instead of paying rent to some leasing office who don't give two shits about me...

>I like this but make sure you are donating to worthwhile charities:
Yea, I'm aware of the scams out there when it comes to donation centers. I do my research etc..

>By that, do you mean specifically an other half or friends (or both, as I assume)?
I have nobody who I can actually talk to anymore. No friends, everyone left or moved on with their life and I moved out of state

Also, my family try to talk to me but they kind of don't understand what I am going through.. and they don't really care desu


>Why exactly do you think you are worthless?
I am depressed and I dont do anything with my free time at all, I sit on discord or shitpost on 4chan

I stopped studying for the other certs because the though of advancing is starting to worry me and just making more money isn't going to make me more happy without a family, or a gf, or even a dog...

>How do you define worthlessness?
I don't really remember why I started this journey or why I made it in life and actually achieved everything I did. I came from a poor family from Europe, we moved to the US and I started learning English. Eventually found a career and things took off like a rocket ....

yeah man, i cant lie. that shit hurts. just keep lifting till someone better loves you i suppose.


had pretty much the same experience. supported my girl from day 1 when she had nothing, no job, nothing. She supported me when i had a lot of medical issues. Drove me home from my operation and snuggled, and cooked for me.

You have us, in a sense. Normally, in this circumstance, I would offer an email but I don't regularly check any of my throwaways, or even my personal email, anymore; only my shitty school email.

What are your interests? Do you have any? Anything you want to learn, become better at, etc.?

I agree here, except for the dog bit. Dogs are magical creatures.

My lifts are doing okay. I'm not eating enough is the problem. I stand a legitimate chance of having my first girlfriend within the next few weeks.

On my mind lately has been paying for college. I need to take out a loan this year and even though my parents are willing to help with payment after I graduate, I keep putting off the application because I'm so anxious about career prospects and having my name tied to debt. I think a lot about how I've changed during my first two years of college and what type of person I'll be in another two or three years.

I have anxiety and depression. I am often suicidal and now I have been told it all stems from, autism, I kid you not. I am low spectrum but it explains why I can't get into a career (because I sperg out when my routine is changed). I just turned down a comfy job I had in the bag because of this.

Lifting has been my saviour but my cuts gone shit and for too long and at 13%bf I need to bulk or I'll lose too much strength. One of my traits is if I am not 100% into something I am not interested, and lifting is going that way. Cycling already has....

I have no problem with women, besides being in and out of employment. But I lose interest because autism....Met a really nice girl now who doesn't mind all this. She lifts and cycles, has a similar personality, but in a month she moves the other side of the world.

Top it all off /trans/ is over....Least I may see some gains on this lean bulk...If I can hit the calories, high anxiety means I find it hard to eat clean.

Just fucking go, I was going with a buddy at first, then he couldn't make it one day, and I sat at home all day debating if I was gonna go alone or not, then I was just like fuck it and went alone, felt so much better after

I've noticed going has let me be devoid of thought but when I'm trying to get those last reps in I think about how shitty she treated me and I get angry and pump out those last reps. I just think about how I wanna better myself, feel good, and show her what she could have had

The thing about the girl is pretty simple, at least. you just need someone else to push into her place. And you'll forget about her.

Alternatively, tell her your feels, and she'll either accept or reject you, back away, and then you have your answer / space.

I have a date lined up with a QT on wednesday next week. At least I think it's a date, we arranged to meet up after matching on tinder. Pretty sure that's basically guaranteed to be a date.

I haven't touched a woman in over 2 years now, and I don't really talk to people outside of my friends group. I don't really have much of an idea how exactly I'm supposed to do this dating thing, but apprently I can talk to her over text reasonable well enough to hold a conversation. She usually replies straight away too, which is a good sign, I think.

I just had the last girl I took on a date start to flake out on me. Said she wanted to meet up again, hasn't messaged me since last weekend and even for the week before that her messages were really sporadic and almost non existant.

I dunno guys, I've been doing really well with the weight loss, down to 97.4 from 120-130ish, but I feel like something is letting me down to these girls when they see me in person and I have no idea.

Could be better, stuck in an abusive relationship with my mother.

Good news is I've been saving up money (while living with her) and bought a nice food truck, going to start selling scones and navajo tacos, got a nice spot in town, everything is up to health code.

Once things start rolling I'll get more freedom and maybe then I'll be content.

heres a song to listen to while you read my blog post https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjYBiQ9Vp2I

I've been up for about 22 hours right now. Went about my thursday, hit the gym from 8-10:30, went home and promptly wasted my entire night playing vidya and watching my chinese cartoons. The frequency with which I do this is increasing; i can never stop my mind from racing and brimming over with unpleasant thoughts before when im trying to sleep unless im absolutely exhausted.

I need to stop watching anime, i dont watch it that often but it still fucks with my head. Makes me think theres a perfect girl out there for me or that if i just keep trying things will work out with the next slut. Dont get me wrong, ive had lots of hook ups but its never worth it. I become more and more of a recluse each day, biding my time until i leave this place. And to be honest, its much much more fulfilling than when i used to go out and party every weekend. Im going to attempt to take a nap for n hour and then go about my day. Hope you have a good friday /fit/

Classic virgin post.
>>
Blog post

I am kinda at a odd part of my life. I was pretty pathetic at 23. I weighed 160 lbs, finished my undergrad but didn't have job or post-grad degree lined up, I had massive student loan debt, and I was a kissless/hugless/virgin. Now I am 27 and I weigh 205 (12 % according to body fay scanner), all my main lifts are advanced and my squat is elite, I worked in government for a year doing policy research, I am in law school with articles lined up, my student loan is just from law school which is kept fairly low from scholarships and work, and my fuck count is in the double digits.

I like that I changed as much as I have in a short time frame, but I don't feel like I have made it. I don't currently have a serious relationship, and I only ever had one which only last 6 months. Further I am not sure if I will be successful in law or if my firm is just going to "pump and dump" me after I am an associate for a few years. I am also unsure if it is "optimal" for me to continue law as a result or if I should consider writing the CFA and get into portfolio management. I think I will face the same problem in that field though. I also have a problem being "assertive" with women without the pretext of meeting them from tinder (e.g. there was this cute PhD student I saw yesterday who I went with high school with, she was impressed with how big I got, that I was in law school, etc and she clearly wanted to hang out and I didn't "close"). Also, most women I fuck are average at best.

I guess what I am getting at is that I feel like I am so close to making it, but I still have to overcome my mental hurdle which is the only main obstacle left since everything else is just diminishing returns at this point. I don't know how to do that though. I can lift weights to get stronger. I can study to get more knowledge and have a better career path. I can fuck sluts on tinder to get better at sex. However I don't know what I can do to become more mentally confident and strong.
