Am I a bad person? Anonymous 130237[Reply]

So I've had this "childhood friend" we met when we were 10 in school I'm exactly one month older than him we were born on the same day just different month, we grew up together then we drifted apart after COVID but I noticed that he has this weird obsession for me, from mutual friends we have they've told me and showed me videos and messages of him talking about how much he loves me and that he truly wants to be with me forever. I've known this since we were 14 no2 we are both 21. He has never dated and hasn't lost his virginity even though i have dated in the past and also already lost my virginity ( i haven't told him that im not a virgin but he is smart so he must KNOW right?) . So recently I've been talking to him and going on dates and I really like being with him but honestly he isn't my type I don't find him hot and honestly would never be able to be intimate with him, I could kiss him but I don't think I would feel anything, but I really like how he sees me and treats me. He truly love me, and shows it, he writes me letters, fixes things in my apartment, buys me dinner, etc. I know im leading him on but I'm sure he knows I don't love him back but i don't know if he cares. Am I bad person for using him?

No you're not bad, but be open about your true feelings towards him. Be honest since he is definitely putting so much of himself into this and has been good, he deserves the truth even though it will hurt. Leading him on is only pushing this conversation down the road and going to make it more difficult to separate. If hes still cool with doing all this for you despite your feelings, then thats on him. It will suck because its nice getting treated well, but he seems like a guy with a great heart and deserves to be with someone who is crazy about him. As well as you deservd to be with someone who will make yoh happy.

Because realistically you will get all those IP addresses eventually. you're gotten at least 50 of mine. 1,950 more to go and you will have forced me to get another 2,000, that's quite the big deal.

Terrible and wonderful, depending on who you end up dating. Guys are either total moron apes with no sense of class, or absolute gentlemen but those are rare. I broke up wjth my long term gf of a couple years a few months ago and started dating. I got some matches on tinder and went on a couple dates, one of the guys was a complete fuckboy but i wanted to try out guys. He didnt hold doors, asked to pay half of the bill, drove a beat up old car, and was very insistent on going with him to an underground dj set that night. I left early and unmatched him. On the other side, i found an amazing guy that i wasnt too crazy about looks wise but we had so much in common,like playing same games and have similar hobbies, we clicked very quickly. He's polite, likes my jokes and goofy demeanor, holds doors open for me, and takes me out on cute dates all the time. I return the favor by cooking him delicious home made food he can reheat after he comes home from work over the course of the week.

The key is to not just look for attraction, but find a companion that will be your best friend and who you can rely on. Dating shitty guys feels like a waste of time and is unfulfilling, maybe you might get some action but its kinda hollow and tbh I get off better by myself. Try stuff out, get out of your comfort zone, and trust your gut.

Btw im 31 myself

F0ID LESSONS 101

I want to help f0ids get a husband and be a good wife. Too many people just want to fight and whine and complain. But here's some actual help:
1. Do not do the School campaign.
2. Put points into cooking and tailoring.
3. Set-up macros for gestures "/curtsey" and "/pigeon-toed".
4. Do not level past 16, though there is a mature build if you get to 30.
5. Equip one of the expensive cash shop outfits.
6. /follow a male until he makes a marriage covenant with you.

What is being in a good relationship supposed to be like?

For me it always goes like this:

>They like it when I talk about them or try to share things that might be related to them or pique their interest

>Conversations don't flow naturally. It's just like a job interview where you have to try and care about their life, or talk about whatever they want to share, otherwise nothing happens
>They don't care about my life at all
>They only like it when I'm available for them
>They only like it when I am there for them
>They only like it when I am making an effort for them
>They don't want to know anything about me
>The don't care about how I feel
>They don't even want to hang out with me
>They talk about other women more than me, they just use me as a tool for complaining about their other women
>The compliments and "I love you" feel really insincere, forced and empty, like there's nothing there, just empty words probably copied and pasted

If you don't share interests, there's just nothing to talk about. A guy can pretend to care about your day sure but how long could that conversation last really? I don't know why people don't bring this up more often but if you don't share interests it's likely just not going to work out long term because you'll only be interacting for sex or you'll be forcing some half-assed interest like you mentioned. The big issue is there isn't really a lot of overlap between what most guys are into vs what most women are into and this is only exacerbated by internet algorithms. I really don't know why women go around assuming as long as there's an initial spark it'll all eventually work out in the end. Relationships take a lot of work from both parties and sometimes you're just not made for each other.

Anonymous 130152

People in general and especially men are increasingly immature. The vast majority of people try their best in romantic relationships and often fail themselves despite their best intentions. Good relationships come with serendipity, it takes patience, persistence, and an openness to be surprised.

Anonymous 130268

this checks out all the boxes for a man that wants a gf just to take, never to give. so many men dont even like women or are interested in them in any other way than that they want someone to be nice to them, ask them about stuff and all of that. if they dont even want to know who you are and whats going on with you, they dont really love you, they just want a relationship with pretty much just someone to feel less lonely.

Probably the most important post ever made on the state of men and women today. Here we have a woman perfectly describing how men naturally have always been, what they want from women; yet it's described in a way that comes off as sad, because women no longer fit a support class, they are brought up and trained to be men themselves. They end up becoming their own little person, so it's not easy to become a helper and comforter to a man, to conform to him, to give up yourself because you've built up so much.
Men only change in attitude for women when their wife is holy and graceful, as Paul describes in the 1st century.

Some women after being brainwashed do revert back to factory settings somewhat after school and follow a man, becoming a helper. But it's not women's fault that they're being severed from their femininity and becoming more independent. I don't think it's a good idea, I don't think it'll work in the end.
No man is ever going to care how much of a "person" you are. How full of your own ideas you are, what kind of person you made yourself out to be. So in terms of relationship, it's just a waste and will cause conflict. But act with devotion and grace and he will become a great gentle kind soul and become everything women gush over or whatever.

I am a schizoid woman. I spend most of my time thinking about nebulous stuff in my head and doing solitary activities such as diy stuff, tinkering with computers, trying to make various stuff and all. I do not enjoy talking to other people unless they’re invested in my interests. Usually if I speak with someone I just wait for the conversation to end and for them to go away. I have little clue as to why other people are entertained by what they are. I prefer interactions where I don’t need to adapt to the other persons sense of normal. That’s why I dislike groups and often end up antagonistic towards them unless I have a big presence. I don’t have strong attachments.

That is just who I am.

Also, another random bit of trivia from childhood. I started using the Internet more or less at 8-9 years old.
One of the things I did first was sign up on some social media site and upload my picture. I played the games on the site and then kinda never visited again.

Fast forward like 3 years later, I log into my old email to see a bunch of friend request notifications. A lot of them were like 30 to 40 year old men.

Here's an update.
I have been trying to run the game with Renderdoc. It didn't work, apitrace didn't work. Even Nsight graphics. It would simply fucking CRASH and there would be no logs no nothing. I had to look through windows events (really handy) and even some logs I was unable to access and had to xcopy them.
I turned off my main GPU, turned off my integrated GPU, was considering translating the game to direct x or something.

Then I ran it through the debugger. It did not run, again. BUT, guess what, it crashed on some fucking AUDIO LIBRARY. That's crazy.
I disabled audio enhancements or something and now the debugger and the game seem to run properly together.

Shit's crazy. To be fair I was really tired yesterday and it helped me relax so I'm happy.

I'm ugly. I'm overweight. I'm extremely socially anxious and autistic, which is why I haven't had a single friend in almost ten years. I lack hygiene, I'm incredibly insecure and feel the need to kill myself when I have to think of my pathetic existence. Nothing is fun to me because I cannot concentrate for the life of me. I have tried to change my life multiple times but I cannot stick with it. Instead, my body keeps being pulled in to bed and my fate is probably to rot here forever.
Only reason I haven't killed myself yet is because I'm still young, only 20, so I am hoping for a miracle… Advice would be very appreciated. If there is any at this point.

>I always find it astonishing when I hear of people who found therapy to be effective… It seems like this is more of a rare case, in which you need to be lucky to get paired with the right one who actually listens to you. I'm very glad therapy helped you overcome hurtful memories and experiences, I think those tend to hold one back a lot later in adulthood.
The first therapist messed me up (not personally just using the wrong method - CBT). My next therapist used 'talking therapy' which involved me getting things off my chest, then they would give their professional feedback on thought patterns or behaviours. It was a great way for me to get over trauma and for my body to actually release the stored stress (that was rough lol). Ever since then I've been trying to be more outgoing, and I actually want to be too.

>I would love to join a book club but unfortunately I'm even too anxious to leave the house. My autism isn't displayed when I talk only, for some reason "normal" people can clock it immediately when seeing me. Maybe due to gestures, I don't know eugh (it's exhausting).

How about attending a talk or a lecture on a subject you enjoy? You can sit at the back and not talk to anyone, but you're still in a group of people who want to focus on the same thing. I've been to a few and it still feels 'social' without having to be proactively social if that makes sense? Also you'd be surprised at the amount of people who don't care about your autism or awkwardness, there are extroverted nice people who like the same things you do and will make the effort to connect - so please don't hide from them :)

>Do you have advice on how to do that? I know people pay tons of money to get one done professionally. Also thank you again for your kind words!! :3

You absolutely don't need to spend money. There's so many useful posts on Pinterest + IG for it, I think as long as you understand the difference between contrast, saturation and cool/warm that's all you really need. I initially didn't like the colours for my season, but once I saw myself in the mirror wearing them I was like "Ok maybe there's something to this after all…"

I relate anon, I can't get out of bed until 1 or 2 or 3 some days, I have crippling anxiety and am unable to find any joy in life sometimes. My only cope is to remind myself I've gotten out of similar ruts in the past but even then it can only do so much for me. I want to kill myself but I'm too scared to go through with it, I want to feel better but I'm not able to even find joy in the smallest things, I just want to rip all my anxiety and sadness out of my brain and let it fade off so I can be happier but I just can't

That does sound helpful, and even though I didn't go to therapy because of childhood trauma, I wish mine was like that too. I wish she would give her professional insights on my problems but instead, she just invalidates every single one of mine. I tell her I have issues with masking constantly since I was a child, and her response to these kinds of things is "No, you don't seem to have that problem"?? It's like going to the doctor because your knee hurts, and they just tell you "No, your knee doesn't hurt. I think you're just imagining the pain!" She also told me that I cannot be autistic because my of my good ability read and write, and because I can feel emotions (I thought she was kidding me but no). What she probably meant was that I cannot be autistic because I'm a woman lol.
>there are extroverted nice people who like the same things you do and will make the effort to connect - so please don't hide from them :)
Well that sounds encouraging, I have met extroverts before who were very kind to me, I guess they liked that I'm quiet because that gave them more space to talk hah. I think I will try to attend such meeting, and if it sucked, I won't have to see the people ever again.
>Keep posting here with updates:) I believe in you!

I'm really sorry about that, but I am positive that we can make it out of it. As you have said, you were able to pull yourself out before a couple of times. Also I think it helps to hear of other nonas who went through the same and got better eventually. I think putting in a bunch of effort is worth a try, no matter how hard it will be.

Hmm, I have heard of obese people being prescribed stimulants such as vyvanse for weightloss since it suppresses your hunger a lot… Maybe make him aware of that. You'd solve two problems at once.

its exam period and it's getting too much for me. The past week I have been studying math for 5 hours every day. Taking one past exam which is three hours, correcting it which takes an hour, and doing weak topics or reviewing formulas for the last hour. The problem is I still fucking suck. Tomorrow is my exam. My average is at 52% and I'm really scared I won't pass. All that time spent for nothing. The past exams I did ranged from 51-79%,, but these last days have been horrible. Yesterday I did an exam and got 37% and today I made another one but didn't finish it because it was actually hurting my soul. I don't know what to do. I can't do more. I have another subject tomorrow too in the morning so I am scared my concentration will already be dwindling. Sometimes I get stuff wrong because I don't have the insight and it's so frustrating because then I watch a video explaining and it's so simple I could literally do it. But I have been making LOTS of mistakes on literally just, forgetting to put a minus here or ssometimes misreading my own previous work. It's so frustrating. I need to be extremely precise tomorrow but I am just scared. My heart hurts. I can't do more. My parents know I have been studying hard and think that my efforts will pay off but I doubt it. It will be mediocre at best… if I fail I might genuinely have to kill myself. Want to kill myself right now already. I don't feel like I am getting better. In the beginning I could see improvement between my first few exams and now I've plateaued. I think it's because I understand the material but I keep making fucking stupid careless errors. And my approach may be systematic and flawless but then I see I made a mistake with subtracting two functions from eachother which fucks up the rest and it makes me crash out. I pray tomorrow I will have the clarity to not make such mistakes- but I have been trying every day as if it were a real exam to no avail. Just sucks. My heart breaks. I don't know how to get my grade up and frankly I can't be too bothered anymore. I want it but I just, can't. But I do care actually. Kill me.

I also have another subject in the morning which is very learn heavy. The last few weeks every day I have been revising and revising and revising the material. I know pretty much every detail by heart. I think a 100% is easily in reach for me I just need to work on formulating my answers. I know I should practice by taking past exams but I just can't seem to do anythiPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

NEETS = Not in education employment or training. I’m over 25, any over over 25 NEETs? What do you actually do all day?

I’m awake now, took two puffs of my vape. TikTok scrolled, Reddit scrolled and played a game on my phone and I’m immensely bored. Ideas are welcome , any of active forums I should know about? Any & all welcome

There’s a lot of times where I just bed rot and do nothing due to the depression but I think this isn’t one of those days. But I am lonely as I have no one and bored and I don’t feel like gaming tbh.

I'm a NEET and I currently larp like I'm attending a uni studying certain subjects. Meaning, I just study something on a schedule for 1.5 hours with breaks inbetween and sometimes I try to plan what I will do. So far it made me feel better because I accomplish something every day.
Really a lot of these "subjects" are just my hobbies, but structured. Structure improves everything A LOT, it's way easier to manage your existing activities and introduce changes into your life this way. Always having planned downtime is good too.
I'll see how long this lasts.
