>>34782652just message him. at worst, you'll never talk to him again anyways so what is there to lose?if he ghosts you or isn't interested, it will also give you closure and the ability to move on.i know it's usually the guys job to initiate, but if you spent 10 minutes reading here, every "i want a gf" post starts out with "im shy and autistic. i dont know what to do."standards have changed.is there a flaw to the argument im making that you see?
>>34782659i don't know if internet causes autism, but there's a correlation that makes me think its contagious.because everyone is terminally online as well as covid, people are a lot more socially retarded than they used to be. guys are scared to initiate. it's such a frequent theme here that it's the cliche roadblock.who really knows whether he wants to take it to the next level? might as well ask. don't you want to move on past this? or are you just gonna give it time, since its already been weeks?i don't think you did anything wrong from what im reading unless there's something you haven't said.
>>34780754Time to try again girl I dunno why you would get attached after meeting them once wait till you go through it 13 times and then get ghosted months into a relationship.t. moid
>>34780754You can't "fall in love" after one date you stupid faggot.
>>34783500you can fall in love with a look
And before you try to twist my words, no I'm not a basement-dweller and I go outside plenty.One of my hobbies is going to arthouse cinemas, been going for 3 years, you can probably imagined what happened. (nothing)An artist in my city decided to do a boat concert (picrel) as a promotion for his new album. Plenty of people, but dafuq should I do? All these people that were there either went in pairs or in groups.My point is, if you "go outside" and expect something to happen, you'll be pretty disappointed.
>>34783181>>father interrupting me for talking too slowly/stuttering or being disinterested in talking with me or being a cunt in general>>sometimes talked with mother, but it was often her talking most of the time>>kinda ignored at family meetingswoah, that's like literally me, or something
>>34783192you can definitely meet people and socialize with strangers before a concert. you probably won't end up making any friends but plenty of people go to concerts alone. to be honest i rarely go to concerts with friends these days since none of my friends who are into the music I'm into live near me anymore.
>>34783227>you probably won't end up making any friendsthen what's the point
>>34783257you shouldn't go to concerts to meet people. you go to a concert for the sake of going to a concert. socializing is just a secondary thing you do to pass the time and have some more fun. or to practice your social skills while you're there.
>>34783321>you go to a concert for the sake of going to a concert.that's what I did, but it still hurts seeing all those hot chicks and cool dudes around me having fun with someone else. Yeah it's a chuddish perspective, but that's it.
I've had vanilla sex with a girl multiple times and I want to do something different to spice things up. Any suggestions?
>>34780884Start simply, with different positions. Ask her what she likes or fantasizes about. Do not just spring something weird on her without warning
>>34780884Try chocolate sex.
>>34780884bondage, outfits, massage, etc
>>34780884Eat her ass
>>34780884>Any suggestions?Yeah. Don't.I'm a big fan of BDSM, but it works for me because I already know exactly what I want before trying it. If you aren't already fantasising about doing something, don't try exploring it. It won't go well.
this girl at work, she's attractive and she has a boyfriend outside of work. she has complimented a jacket of mine, my haircut, offered and put fries in the kitchen oven for me when i said they were cold. invited me to hang out at the front desk with her and her friend when i spent 90 minutes with her the day previously. i passed by one day and i didn't say hi cause she had her back turend and was working, and when she turned around to finally see who it was (me) she was like hi <my name> okay then (at this point i was already walking up the stairs when she said hi, i got to halfway up the stairs, and she calls out to me, and i look over the railing, and she's looking up smiling and she is like i said hi!!! and then another time i passed by, didn't say hi and the friend was like why didn't you say hi to us, bad morning? and before i could answer the friend was like oh she treated your ass!!! (so i guess the hot girl said something about me/roasted me but i didn't hear it) and i was like i had a bad morning, and she was like so did i <my name> but i still said good morning to you. and im thinking to myself, im not her boyfriend. i feel like her behavior is sus for a girl in a relationship. what gives? what does she want? two girls here liked me before and i didn't make a move so wondering if i should do something here. idk guys help ive never even been on a date before and was going to forget foids entirely because I never matched with girls I was attracted too on dating apps. she also asked to see a picture of my sister and called her cute and my family.
>>34783067so what would you do? >>34783080i would never match with a girl that looks this girl on a dating app and i don't go out much only to the gym grocery store and occasionally i go out with friends every few weeks. what would you do if you were me? do you think i have a chance to fuck her? honestly im not sure if she is relationship material but yeah
>>34782924This better not be another cuck fantasy thread.>>34783109>so what would you do?Isn't it obvious?
>>34783117how would you go about it cause she literally works at the front desk with her best friend. also no this isn't a fantasy. on one hand i feel like she hasn't given me a clear sign but on the other hand i feel like she is acting in ways she shouldn't with a boyfriend. she shouldn't get butthurt about me not saying hi.
>>34783159I would just get more and more flirty and talkative with her slowly. If she doesn't want to cuck her boyfriend with you, she will eventually say no. Otherwise, your sign is clear.Tell me, is her boyfriend a manlet?
>>34783109i wouldn't touch someone with a ten foot pole that was doing what she's doing, but if you're ram forward with the little head...just play stupid, and ignore that she has a boyfriend and ask if she wants to go out for a walk or coffee (or whatever you think she might like) next time you talk to her.if she brings up her boyfriend, just say you forgot or some shit. an ex taught me how much you can get away with by playing dumb especially if someone likes you. i'd had a dozen speeding tickets by my early 20s and i got to watch her get out of one by playing stupid and acting like she didn't see the speed limit.
Daily reminder that doping is bad, and (You) shouldn't do it.
>>34782333>implying marijuana is healthykek i was really replying to a teen with 0 reading comprehension all along
>>34782392Mood swings are another symptom of the emotional dependency you have on marijuana. The tendency to lash out at people when they don't respond favorably contributes to many antisocial and even criminal behaviors that do alot more harm to society than diabetes.If my reply sounded absurd to you, consider that you raised concern about the unhealthiness of sugar only to insist it wasn't motivated in any way by the motive to make marijuana seem healthier by comparison. That's an absurd approach to arguing, and it's unfortunate to see people eagerly protect a substance which is used almost exclusively to harm the user and those around them.It's not too late to be sober, just saying.

Seriously considering going to an escort, pros, cons? I don’t think I should but I’m so fucking devastated I just want a girl to get my rocks off.
>>34781019This is one area where you get what you pay for. Quality of experience goes WAY up with price.
>>34781540Honestly what I figured, which is another thing holding me back. Price and the fact that it’s not real sting equally as bad.
>>34782131it's not worth it. sex is over rated if you don't love the person.
>>34781108>jerked off and immediately felt better lol, like I don’t need the hooker.this happens to me eveytime i browse hookers lol
>>34781019>I don’t think I shouldThen don't. If you ever decide that you should, *then* do it. But if you think you shouldn't, it's not going to make you feel good.

>>34786049are you the dude that was camping out at prešeren square a month ago?
>>34786008M, generally not a fan. A bit of foundation and mascara is ok but going to heavy with it just sets yourself up for failure. The only way to avoid "looking tired" without makeup is to basically not wear it at all
>>34786040what is it with the retardation I see in this thread. So utterly lacking in imagination or basic thinking. What about that post implies its STRICTLY the medium of television? Literally anything creative or culturally influential is what kids bond over, you could use his reasoning on like 95% of shit children get up to. Are you a chatbot?

Hey, it’s been 3 days since i noticed i had this black thing under my foot, at first i thought it was ink or something but it doesn’t go away when i shower and scrub, just to make sure, it’s not my vein right ?
>>34779455Keep watch of it, if it grows go to a doctor, it's most likely just a talon noir or intraepidermal hematoma (blood trapped under skin). Veins aren't that visible on soles
>>34779455it is aids
>>34779455From here it looks like dirt or oil. Soap, warm water and some stiff rubbing should get rid of it.
>>34779455It's close to your main toe, so it could be toe-main poisoning
>>34779455Buy one of those plastic grip handle nail brushes from amazon (the colorful ones that come in a pack of 4) and use hot water and dawn dish soap to scrub the fuck out of your foot. You’re welcome.
I've never really considered myself socially awkward. If anything, I'm pretty nonchalant. I don't randomly walk up to people because I don't like invading someone's space, but if I see something interesting or have a reason to talk, I'll approach anyone, guys or girls.The thing I've noticed is that whenever I approach women, they almost always seem really distant. At first I figured maybe that's just their personality, so I didn't think much of it. But then I see the same women talking to my friends, laughing, asking questions, carrying conversations, and their whole attitude is completely different.When they talk to me, it feels like I ask a question, they give the shortest possible answer, and that's it. The conversation dies immediately. I get the "please leave me alone" vibe, so... I leave them alone.The weird part is I don't think I'm a particularly boring person. I skate, make music, I'm a CS major, I have a job, I play games, I fish, I go camping, and I've been told by plenty of people that I'm not ugly. Even friends who usually roast me have straight-up said I'm a decent-looking guy. I take care of how I dress and how I look too.After almost every interaction with a woman, I end up replaying it in my head hundreds of times wondering if I said something weird or came across the wrong way. I genuinely can't find anything. My tone is the same one I use with everyone else, and I don't think I'm acting creepy or anything.So I don't really get it. Why does it feel like women immediately become distant with me while acting completely different around other people? Am I missing something obvious here, or has anyone else experienced this?
>>34776179the decorum of socializing today is vastly different than any other time in history.since smart phones in the late 2000s its the first time socializing is dictated by internet standards over anything real.as much as id like to say its just women its men too. its fucked.you're probably just digging in the wrong places. sadly the dating apps are how people find relationships now and past that i'd look for third spaces people meet and look for others as opposed to, "i just want to go home with my matcha and browse netflix, please stop talking to me".its like when you are in a roleplaying game and instead of a dwarf hitting you up at the dock asking how're the fish, sharing an ale, instead you have some discord fag talking about setting up rules out of character first. people aren't just organically engaging but setting the parameters of how to engage. its retarded but the standards changed.
>>34776215only use tinder when cope-vacationing in another country realize blaming "society" is massive cope and changes nothing literally every girl I interact with acts the exact same way statistically it's impossible for me to be right and all of them to be wrong must be a me problem only true wizard left in the entire friend groupHow cooked am I and what am I doing wrong, anon?
>>34776286like i said in the other threads, third spaces.cut off all online bullshit, vidya, and go outside. hiking clubs, aa, alanon, yoga clubs, book clubs, library, church (even church shopping). women go to these events, and men often don't.you'll have to do a lot of testing to see what fits but it'll be like school putting you back in an environment where the opposite sex even exists.i dont know about being a passport bro. im sure it'd work in the Philippines but then you may as well not lie to yourself about what you've become.i try to avoid dating apps but many people still find others on them even if they aren't fair and broken by design. i have a buddy that fucked half a town on it every work day off and even though his teeth were fucked, he was skinny and had enough southern retardation to make it work.
>>34776179You have to remember that the majority of women are socially-retarded and also act weird around men that they like, just like men tend to. Just look at all the reels these people post of how they act around people in whom they have no sexual interest (charismatic, smiling and chatty) and around people whom they want to have sex (cold, stony, glaring). Life is a lot, lot, more enjoyable when you stop trying to interpret women. I know it's easier said than done but at least try to ignore it.
>>34778268This is true
What's a good strategy for setting aside money for annual big-ticket expenses? Talking like homeowner's insurance and property tax.
>>34779220Have more than one bank account, with different functions.
>>34779220Break up the expense by month and set aside a little bit more than you need each month
>recurringly paying a tax>in order to perpetually occupy a space>that you only paid for one timeThe most bitch of taxation.
>>34779220The two examples you give almost certainly have pay-monthly options, and your bank almost certainly has a "direct debit" or "bill-pay" option, so you can arrange to have the insurance or tax money automatically taken out of your account each month, bypassing your involvement. Just make sure there's enough in the account each month.
>>34779220A good way to think about it is not "how much should I set aside" but rather "how much am I able to save while still being reasonable". Saving is like a muscle, it takes practice to get good at it. People always screech about how buying an ice coffee every day is NOT the reason they are poor. And they are right. But its a poor-person-habit, likely one of many, and once you start breaking those habits you can start saving meaningful amounts.
My folks are pressuring me to get into college soon but I have zero idea what I want to do besides the fact I hate math and don't want to get into CompSci. Even though I don't really see myself doing trades, should I just learn one and/or kms?

>>34769736anon, he said he hates math. medical is largely math
>>34776769Game modder here: I've dabbled in just about every part of making a game short of writing engine code. I've done some coding, creative writing, texture work etc. When I was young, I thought I wanted to go into game design but didn't really know what that entailed and I had the complete wrong ideas. These days, I'd want to be on a Q/A team because I have a real eye for details. Sadly, testers are brought in and out and the field has no stability. I'd also need to move to California probably. Fuck that.It's only fun to design a game if you actually care about it. I've had projects where even when I care about the end result, I have hated some of the work I had to do to get there and often found myself having to learn sections I thought I wouldn't touch.You don't need to take 3 years off to learn how to dev. Just get it in when you can. If you've never done anything other than playing before, start with modding a game you like that has good tools for that. Especially if you've had an idea for something that you wanted to do in that game but could not do. You can do this in your free time after work or class. The down side is it would probably take away from your social life a bit if you have one.Networking is also needed unless you want to pay big time, and even then you'll still have to pay people unless you learn how to do everything yourself. Early networking is literally talking to everyone you meet about getting on board a project. I advise against using AI to cut corners, with one exception: music. For an early game project that you end up selling for a dollar on Steam or itch.io, you can use AI or maybe better yet, royalty free music. For a more unique vision though, you will need your own music, unless you make a game that can have a soundtrack of actual songs with lyrics, and again you can go royalty free and probably have a wider selection of those types of songs.
>>34782882>Networking is also needWell, actually it isn't if you learn every single game making skill yourself and do all the work yourself. Which is possible, but takes more time.
>>34769202you could always tell your parents you aren't sure what you want to do, and be honest wth them about how most people with degrees are struggling to get jobs. additionally, look into alternatives. if you're th right age for it, i've heard positive things about jobcorps. if you're in good shape and can drive, you could try doing stuff in national parks or as a firewatch in the summer. i've also heard good things about being a farmstay (also need to be in good shape for that). coolworks is apparently a good website for finding interesting jobs as well. just whatever you choose, don't pick the military if you can help it. it works/helps some people but ultimately its a meatgrinder.maybe you could take a year to do some volunteer work (if your parents allow) to try to get some good stuff on a resume and experience doing different things to see what you like doing? what passions do you have?

They're still mad at me probably but they're the ones who invaded my privacy.
>>34782845yeah you're in the wrong and should apologize to them. they either know what you did or have no idea what happened and will be confused the next day wondering if you're secretly chatting with men or doing drugs.get the fucking key back to your doorknob. can you not determine the contract to your free stay at your parents?in the future do it in the bathroom, shower, or at night
>>34782819sounds like your parents want you to jizz on them

>>34782845>I'm 24.oh lord
>>34782819Explain to them what happened, why you got mad and apologize.Honesty is important. Make sure you tell them about the 7 sluts you looked at too.
>wash face in shower at night>go to bed>wake up>nose and forehead are all oilyWhy is this happening? It just recently started. I'm in my early 30s, and I've been finding acne here and there on my face.

My brother is a teenager who makes non-stop gay jokes, never shuts up about femboys, listens to 'gay rap' for the lols, asks questions like "would you give backshots to a twink or take backshots from a giant furry daddy?" at least five times a day.He says he's 100% straight, insists he's straight when pressed, but the only women he says he's attracted to are "dommy mommies" from cartoons and anime.He and his high school friends gift each other stuff like buttplugs and fishnets as a joke.We just a producing Lo-Fi beat together and he insists that he needs to rap about how much he likes sex with men, as a joke.What's the straight explanation to this behaviour, if there is one?
We would say chevalier. Don't worry, he'll be fine. When I was a teenager I fucked and was fucked by men, women, boys, girls. It wasn't an identity thing and not a social thing either, I just wanted to do it and don't feel anything about it afterwards. I would go as far as to say that he will do better then all the gays, all the closeted gays, all the insecure straight men. your brother is a kind hero and he's going to send it.
Ask him what he thinks about m.o.m.o. That will answer your question.
>>34774821when i was a teen in the late 2000s/early 2010s, it was common for guys to just constantly be doing this kind of shit. the buttplugs and fishnets is definitely over the top (but then again, i was around for borat - mankinis were definitely a novelty item that every friend group had), everything else? idk teen boys thought gay shit was hilarious and would constantly go on about (in a very homophobic way) when i was young. the specific content of what your brother is saying is new, but the form is old. teen boys just weird about gay shit sometimes.>>34774881>>34775013basically this
Doesn't really matter, he has risen above you, ancient japanese text depict gay sex ( nanshuko ) as a higher and purer form of love, text like hagakure, the guide of samurai, embodied nanshuko among the nenja( mentor ) and wakashu ( student ) which included intimate relationships too
>>34774821Either your brother or someone in his friend group is gay and is pushing that agenda. You probably cannot stop what he is doing around his friends and they might already being fucking each others butts. Nothing wrong with being gay, but the humor is off putting for me. The straight version of that would be talking about how women would look sucking your dick, I guess. Point being neither is polite conversation. Some people are more wild than others, but if he was my brother, I wouldn't want to hear him talk about this crude stuff and I would discourage it as much as possible by openly reacting negatively.
I swear I have a problem, how do I not do it anons? may as well be self mutilation at this point and people wonder why my fingers look chopped up and scared.
>>34782750do what? bite? clip too much?
