Why is it that the older generations see swearing as such a foul and disgusting thing but swearing for us young people (sub 30) is the norm and absolutely acceptable between each other.
>>19025427>its ridiculous. its the same reason religious people say you cant eat pork, cant be gay, cant eat shrimp, cant jerk off. at the time those rules were made, the christians were a VERY tiny amount of people. eating pork back then could kill you and they didnt want you to die, they needed as many living people reproducing as possible. This anon gets it.Shit gets lost in translation, more or less.
I'm 20 and have never sworn in my life. Just never felt the need
Because old people have strange ideas about professionalism that are so incredibly limiting they don't leave room for people to be human in the workplace. Then they make that particular "corporate culture" the standard , and force anyone who works for them and makes more than 35k a year to abide by it too. Kids who are in their 20s, still in collage, or deliver pizza don't have to do this.
>>19025393>older generationsCause the new generations watch MTV, stupid movies and listen to moronic music an don't read anymore.You know what gramps considered entertainment?A BOOK!
Because older generations actually had better parenting. This new generation is fucked in so many ways.
I'm in love with someone, they're in love with me. We've known each other for years now, and have psuedo-dated off and on. I only know them online but we're both honestly working on fixing that and things should spring into motion in a month or two.They've always had issues with wanting attention from others, and I recently learned they want non-monogamous relationship. I'm not questioning so much if they're cheating on me, they say I'm different and I believe them, its not in character for them to be lying about that. My issue is that the idea of them being with someone else bothers me like nothing ever has before, and despite talking about this to them at length, they aren't changing their mind. I can't leave them, they mean far too much to me, and they're semi-dependent upon me for various non-emotional reasons.It hurts me to have them do this, but it would hurt me to leave them, it would hurt me to hurt them from leaving, and it would hurt me even more if I left and they went off the deep end as a result which they almost certainly would.I dont know what to do.
>>19025687This really doesn't sound right to me.Right out of the gate, you two obviously have very different ideals. Taking a relationship from long distance to living together is not fucking easy, even if you don't have vastly different ideals or live in different countries. I would also very strongly advise against financially supporting somebody in this manner. Honestly, it just sounds like you've got some young confused mentally ill girl taking advantage of you (even more or less admitting that there are others giving money)I used to do similar shit when I was younger and less mentally stable.Made some decent money.
>>19025687Jesus Christ dude, you're paying her to cuck you! Wake the fuck up!
>>19025715The issue is you've convinced yourself that this fantasy is real. They don't even love you enough to be with just you. You're being used, financially, emotionally, for citizenship.Wake the fuck up.
>>19024733ITT: OP pays a girl money and gives her citizenship in exchange for being cuckedCan't make this shit up
>>19024733A good idea is to date a real guy than an online personality. Regardless, polyamourous relationships are pretty sexy and unorthodox. Might be difficult for you to really understand my perspective, but it's better than those normies' shit-show of relationships.
after a year of rampant drug use from psychs, dissos, opiates and stimulants coupled with some fairly emotionally wrecking decisions/or lack thereof, I have been feeling well and truly braindead for the past six monthsmy mind is generally devoid of any thought whatsoever, everything seems stale and empty, my memories are distant, I lack my former worldview and subjective life experience, all information and objects appear at face value and it's near impossible to 'read between the lines'if there's anyone here that gives a shit about MBTI, I've gone from INTP to a fucking ISTP, I know it's 21st century astrology but I still feel disgustedconversations are near impossible now, I have nothing to say and this has driven me away from my incredibly small circle of friendsmy creativity and imagination is near non existent now and I've noticed a significant decline in my artistic abilities. I feel like a husk that exists in body alone, lacking any form of emotion, desire or opinionwill I ever get out of this? I've dragged it on long enough by continuing to take drugs as soon after I had a psychotic break on acid which I think sparked this descentI feel and look like an utter soulless mongoloid, I think I've lost any semblance of humanity and cognition that makes life worth livingwhat do?
>>19025409>If youve developped anxiety, a self defeating and hopeless attitude, your brain could make full repairs and you wont even know it and continue to be a fuckbrain (actual medical scientific term coined by me right now..) with no skills confidence creativity or social ability.yeah this is what I'm worried about most, six months have past since the initial time I became disconnected and hollowed during which I was compulsively taking ketamine and oxy to escape whilst succumbing to this new statenow I'm a social wreck at this point and missed all of the freshers events at university because of it, how can I recover from this and reconnect with people when I have nothing to contribute or share in conversation?I'm starting to consider dropping out of uni to pursue my hobbies and get to a better state of mind but I'm worried I'd be shooting myself in the foot
>>19023089Turn to Jesus, He can heal you
>>19023683This.Druggies are morons and have nothing else to talk about except the last time they were high.
>>19026165no shit, hence why I feel like a moron and have nothing to talk about, not even the last time I was high because I wouldn't even stoop to those levels, it's like talking about your fucking dreamsI am an incredibly vacuous and shallow individual, please tell me something I'm not already aware of
>>19023089>rampant drug use from psychs, dissos, opiates and stimulants cthey'll damage your brain just like alcohol
I have a bunch of lyrica, baclofen, lamictal, a few valium, and possibly some hydroxyzine left. If I take them all, will I die? How long would it take me to die? I already had 8 drinks.
>>19026346>If I take them all, will I die?internal bleeding
for the past couple months my boyfriend barely has had sex with me and hes been fapping to hentai and other girls on 4chan instead of having sex with me.theres been multiple occasions where ill initiate sex and he tells me to leave and goes and faps.im very sexual in general, im not horribly ugly or fat, and im compatible with his fetishes. im usually always down for sex too. idk what im doing wrong. pic related its meserious answers only pls
>>19026273Great. Now we are somewhere with your problem.Honestly speaking, if your bf has already taken the shortcut of hentai, its a good idea to leave him alone. If sex is the only problem in your relationship, buy a dildo. If there's friction elsewhere as well, breakup's the only valid option.The people who say otherwise say that because its easy doing so, sounding noble and chivalrous.
>>19026319Doesn't sound like OP. No, BOTH of you have exercises. Keegels for you, and him when showering should get wood and place a wet towel on his dick and keep flexing it to gain girth, admittedly not that much, but its noticeable when I don't for a few months. I try to do it every shower but just waking up>shower isn't an ideal time for it.
>>19026328>If sex is the only problem in your relationship, buy a dildobf gets mad at her when she flicks her bean.
>>19026328hes expressed discomfort when i told him i was gonna buy a dildo idk i think ive gotten all the help that i needed from this thread. its starting to get distracted from the main topic.
>>19026338>>>19026328 (You)>>If sex is the only problem in your relationship, buy a dildo>bf gets mad at her when she flicks her bean.XD wtf.. Seems like our girl is having a good time trolling around.
My girlfriends and I just got a puppy. I've had dogs all my life but I am suddenly allergic (big itchy skin blotches where it licks me) and I don't want to keep the puppy. She's angry and has said to me "you're not THAT allergic". She wants to keep the puppy and says its our responsibility now that we have it. What should I do?
>>19023709Kick the dog everytime it licks you, should learn quickly not to
>>19023709Antihistamines?I don't know. Probably not the answer you are looking for. Some people can tolerate animals even if they allergic when the animal is washed with the special soap. You should also probably have some "dog free zones" in your house, particularly in places you sleep or lay your head. Good luck!
>>19023709feed the dog some chocolate by mistake. doggo should be out in no time. then act super emotional and tell your woman you don't want another flea sack because you're afraid a new one would make you forget the good old sweet times with doggo no1
>>19023742If you're only allergic to its saliva then train it to never lick or bite you. Problem solved?
>>19023709Kill it.
What are you supposed to do when you don't click with anyone ?I'm halfway through second year of college>no friends>no girlfriend>virgin(I guess I'll mention that?)Those are all "bad" things right?It's not like I don't go out or that I find it difficult to talk to people. It's just that nobody here is anyone I'd want to be closer with as a friend or otherwise. It's supposed to get harder when you're completely out of school and an adult so I guess I'm worried how my life will be.From a brutal business concern it also means I don't have any real "connections"
>>19026055Sign your ass up on a dating site and start visiting new places. If you don't have a car though making anything of those two will be quite hard.
Do you have depression? Because I know if I'm not feeling it I don't really want to talk to anybody, but when I'm happy I will talk to everyone. Even if there isn't much to say or they aren't my type of person.
>>19026218Not OP, but yes. I was going to post something like this.Do you feel like you have low energy/a lack of motivation in general? These problems can be medical.If not, try investing a little more time and energy into people, sometimes it takes a while for people to open up and share who they are.
>>19026218not op but I'm in an identical situationI'm almost entirely sure I'm suffering from clinical depression (blank mind, brain fog, detachment) but I'm in a perpetual dilemma of whether I should spend more time alone and try to reconnect with my hobbies and find some joy in life or whether I should try and socialise even though it's excruciating and feels like a chore?I seem to suck all the energy out of the room and have nothing to contributeIt feels like there's a constant ticking clock reminding me that the longer I leave it, the harder it'll be in the future and that just creates even more anxiety
>>19026055Maybe you're just a piece of shit.>no gf,friends,etc NO problemsBut you want them.
Okay, need some relationship advice here.A couple of days ago I was surprised to see all my old classmates and friends waiting for me downstairs to have a suprise 18th birthday party.We mustve been 20 something ish people, and among these 20 were 2 girls; lets call them Abby and Sarah. Now, Im kinda interested in Abby, infact so much that I spent alot of the evening talking to her. Shes a solid 9/10 blonde, perfect body and face, amazing personality. Now, its been pretty difficult trying to catch her attention since im a fairly ironic guy, not edgelord level but more of a intelligent but rude level, so getting people in general to like me is fairly difficult. Now on to the problem - Sarah, the other girl, was sorta similar to Abby, but im really not that interested in her in the same way. Shes a 7/10, fat ass, my kinda kink. Now, remember what I wrote about myself? Well apparently she has seen straight through all that and fell in love with me since shes in my class and all, and also part of my group of friends.So when she goes outside crying, I get confused. No good host allows such a thing, so I go out to talk to her. Wont go into too much detail, but she confesses her feelings and we make out (im very drunk at this point) the evening goes on and we dont do much, untill everyone starts packing up. Me, being drunk and butthurt over the fact that Abby literally seemed 100% uninterested, tells Sarah to stay over, and she does. Now apparently Abbey was interested but played hard to get; yay right? No, since me and Sarah fucked. Not only did we fuck, I took her virginity and told her I didnt regrer anything. Now im torn between telling Sarah that im not super interested and thereby risking my entire friendgroup and breaking her heart, or destroying any chance with Abby, the perfect woman that i actually am interested in.What do?
>>19026224Get a load of this normie.Get with Abby and tell Sarah to go away. If you're entire friend group ends because Sarah is displeased then they are not your friends at all
>>19026229But wasnt I the dick who played Sarahs feelings and who lied?
>>19026231Just say you were drunk. You probably think I'm a terrible person with terrible advice, but dealing with people to get what you want takes steps. People are just black and white and can be played as such. As I said before, if your group of friends dislikes you for hurting Sarah, then they aren't your friends. If I insulted one of my friends back in school, my other friends would still like me--social dynamics work like that (at least for us).But literally, if you want Abby, you need to displace Sarah from your life by teaching her that being in love with you emotionally hurts her, or she'll otherwise still think she has a chance with you. Simply saying "I was drunk and horny" or something teachers her that you don't value her in a sexual context, and would prefer to be friends.Is your interactions with Abby completely limited within your social group? Cause otherwise you could see her alone by yourself away from Sarah
>>19026244I suppose its not a terrible idea if im gentle about it. Its complicated, Abby is friend with one of the members of my group, but not in a way that effects them. Had the roles been reversed then maybe that one friend would have gotten mad but nothing more
>>19026224MGTOW will save you
Received a 'phishing' email offering some bullshit job. I made the mistake of interacting with the sender by replying with nonsensical comments whilst not giving ANY information about myself. They've replied with all of my personal info minus S.I.N and passwords in a threatining way. What can I do about this asides reporting this to my financial institutions and local police????Any serious reply is appreciated. Ps, their email is [email protected]
>>19026293ignore them. they don't have shit
While we all know certain three letter words are watching, perhaps file an official report? Depends what country you are in. Get the right department. If the email is coming from a different country it might not be simple at all.If your browser allows you to "mark as spam" or "report" do so with as much saved images screen caps as you can. Save fucking EVERYTHING, then get it on an external drive and unplug it. Change passwords to everything. Do a full virus scan with two different scanners. If they don't have any "real" data on you they are bluffing to get your money. Credit cards or anything? Or just you live at Y, your phone number is X. For the love of god stop leaving that shit on FB(if you have it there) at most FB/any social media site should ONLY have your phone number. Contact Yellow Pages and request to be removed. A lot of "identity protection" places would allow you to talk to them for free. Of couse they will be more willing to talk about options if you ACT interested in thir service. Talk and ask what they could/would do to remedy the situation or how much of a threat they actually believe this phisher is. Be nice, and ACT INTERESTED. Call several, call all of them.
>>19026299>ignore them. they don't have shit>>19026308>If they don't have any "real" data on you they are bluffing to get your money. Credit cards or anything? Or just you live at Y, your phone number is X.
Ignore them. Blackmailers online thrive off of making you feel threatened so you can give in and give everything. It's how indian phone scammers run their bullshit. Just ignore them, pretend they don't exist. That's all you have to do.
>>19026293It's a bunch of spam bull you newfag normie crap!Now go to reddit.
Hi! I have been living with my bf for almost 2 years now. He is still kind and affectionate, tells me he loves me everyday, doesn't cheat on me or anything but the sex is lacking and he spends most of his free time gaming. When I asked for attention (to do stuff with me) and more sex (which is non existent in last 2 months), he said he wish he would miss me more (since I am almost aaaalways home, I work from home and have hobbies but they're all home based like his, games etc).He offered me to pay for my trip to go to my parents town maybe once a month for a week. He says he feels really stupid about it and wants to fix himself. That he takes me for granted and wants to "miss me". Is this okay, could this actually help? I know he wouldn't cheat on me so please no need for those kinda comments.I know in some relationships people just need time for themselves so I understand and am willing to go with this. Just wanted to ask what you all think? Also, I suggested getting hobbies and being out more, but he said it's not the same as being away. He also said this wouldn't be a permanent thing, but just something to try out. Thanks all.
Bump... Halp
>>19026179It sounds a bit odd, but if you trust and believe in him then do it. He's right on the missing part. When you're around someone constantly, you get a bit tired of them no matter what. But it creates a comfort zone that he will unconsciously realize more once you're away for a while. Plus if you go somewhere interesting it gives you something to talk about when you get back.
>>19026179>sex is lacking>works at homelooks like you're a fat whaleWhy don't you go to the gym,eat lesser than a hog, and put some makeup on your snout maybe then he'll fuck you.
I want a career that people respect me for, I'm sick of being treated poorly.Advice?
Well dude, I would say the easiest careers to get into that come with respect are firemen, the military, or being a police officer. Not to say that they're easy to do, but the path to be in those careers is well-defined and actively encourages more members. More difficult careers that gain respect include being a doctor, lawyer, or being in business, which require schooling or connections. Truthfully, if you become good enough at any job or skill, people will respect you for it, and you can also gain respect by becoming a leader in your community, by volunteering and being active in people's lives.
Fuck them! Take pride in what you do!
Ask yourself: do you want to be respected, or your profession? >>19025341>military>policeNot respected among socially liberal people >businessExtremely broad category>lawyerOnly among a certain subset of people but most people will think you are scumComment too long.

EMT! or fireman..Everyone will love you and cute girls will bake you cookies.Alternatively, a doctor...but that's a lot of school
>>19025317Giving a fuck of other's think is your real problem.Most are cunts just cause you give a fuck about how they react.
Sick of being depressed. How do I talk to a doctor about being depressed? Do I need to see a professional/specific doctor to talk about depression? What are the steps after?
that feel when you have BPD and are obsessed with your girlfriendthere's no greater pain
dont listen to these idiotic naive normies, anti depressants will not help you in the long term and will actually harm you. there is actually no evidence that they work.
>>19026219What do you mean you have never been to a doctor? Do you live in some 3rd world shithole? Even poor people get checkups at least once in a while. Just go.Don't even worry about how you sound. Depression is nothing new to medical professionals. They see multiple depressed people daily and think nothing of it. I promise.
>>19026274they are a prop, not a cure.The right SSRIs can prevent suicide though. They work fine for me.
>>19026124Go to a psychiatrist he'll pill you up.
Anyone know roughly how much it would cost to have all four of my wisdom teeth removed at once with general anesthesia?
>>19025726A dentist office would know roughly how much. If you have insurance, be prepared to give the coverage information. Perhaps you can call around to different offices to find the best price.
>>19025726just got mine removed two days ago for 1700 and some change. copay was 350.
>>19025726>with general anesthesia?It's really not that bad with local, and it's cheaper. I had all four of mine removed with local and they were all impacted, so he had to get out the little jackhammer drill that shatters them and everything. Also, general anesthesia is riskier (which is to say, still not risky at all, but hey).Why general?

I barely get matches, maybe 1 or 2 a week on a good week (won't get a message back or will be unmatched 9/10 times)I have gotten laid off of it a few times though. So it's not completely useless, just very damaging to my self esteem and a timesink 99% of the time.I still have a month of tinder plus left to use. I paid for it and don't want it to go to waste, but being as uselss as it is I'm not sure whether it would be worth it.What should I do?
>>19024992Fuck, do I know THAT bro...
>>19025031You need to lose weight.
pls help, i dont know how to get started messaging someone on tinder. i have a few matches but its been days and i havent talked to any of them. how do i start? how quick do i get into meeting irl? mainly just looking for a quick fuck but im a virgin. obviously not gonna say that, but still
slightly retarded questionwhat does it mean to a person if they've been superliked? does it just show the person is desperate or is it okay if you're a 7 or above?
Is there a place that can tell me exactly how tinder even works? just how it gets profiles for you to swipe through and how if you liked someone, how does your profile come across their account.
Today for a brief moment I had serious thoughts of killing myself. This hasn't happened in over a year and I'm scared that it will keep happening. I'm living a decent life right now but I'm not okay. How do I help myself?
I have those thoughts often, probably close to once a week. I'm going to go succumb and through with it one of these days.Just keep your head up my man. Think about the people you'd hurt if you did it. Think of all the wasted knowledge and hard work thats got you to this point.
>>19025273How do you deal with it? Its been effecting my work and school but all I can do is jerk off on the internet and sleep. I dont really have time for anything else to get my mind of things.
>>19025264try first to help others.
>>19025366Have you ever tried mental healthcare? Most schools have a Student Health or counseling office which is available to students at no cost.
