ive been dating a moid for a little over a month and want to be his girlfriend but i dont know how to bring it up or what to say. i havent been in a relationship for over 2 years, but i have tried. usually i think a boy likes me but then he ends up leaving me for someone else or we just fall apart somehow and i dont want it to happen this time so i feel like i need to trap him with a label so he cant get away. he could still cheat on me or break up with me but at least it wouldnt just be ghosting. i have no idea how to do this and the last time i asked my therapist for advice she said to not talk about my feelings and wait for him to do it. i dont think i want to ask her for any more boy advice so i am just lost and feel like shit. i havent even told him how mentally ill i am either which is important but idk how to do it. im just pretending to be normal and im scared once i talk about my feelings ill be too much of a hassle and bother and will be left again. i hate being stuck in this mind.

>>60744>the last time i asked my therapist for advice she said to not talk about my feelings and wait for him to do itbased therapist. Most men who date around will play along with anything if they simply don't have many other options at the moment, so you will feel much more secure if he proactively shows he wants something serious. otoh you should also decide on a timeline for yourself so you don't just wait around forever, if he wants you he should be excited about committing to you and if this isn't the case you need to walk away.
To be honest I'm not a fan of dating without labels, especially getting intimate before you know there's mutual interest in a serious relationship. Starting out as friends and getting to know each other is a million times better, my partner and I already knew we would be good for each other and were committed from date 1. I understand that it isn't always so easy to achieve though.

>>60744>so i feel like i need to trap him with a label so he can't get awaylol, why? if he doesn't want to do that himself why try to force him? i'd rather be ghosted than a guy feel obligated to be with me despite not wanting to be. you do you, but i do not understand this. why not just wait for him to broach the subject? if he wants to date you, he'll say so.

i'm really nervous miners. my gf of 3 months is moving in with me 11 days from now. i feel like we rushed things but i love her so much, but we're both kind of autistic and terrible at being adults so i'm worried that we'll fight a lot or get really frustrated with each other and fuck things up. every second without her feels like torture, i want her more than anything but at the same time i have no idea how i'll talk to her when she's in front of me at the airport
there's so many things that could go wrong, i'm really bad at expressing my emotions and letting people in due to trauma and she's really emotional and i can barely speak english (her first language) and she can barely speak spanish (my first language) and aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa i don't know . i want everything to turn out ok but still i'm so nervous

Since guys consume such dating coach content, he is more likely to follow this structure of thinking, and it would be your task to ask him about your status.

I saw a dream last night about being in a relationship, and it really ruined my day.
Reason is, I don’t think I’ll ever find a gf (I’m lesbian).
Everytime I think I might have a chance, I get ghosted again.
I never ghost anyone, and I feel awful when ladies string me along for weeks to months before giving up and ghosting on me for good, and I’m sure I reek of desperation because of it.
First the messages get longer and longer, and then she messages more and more rarely before ghosting for good.
Not that it matters. Nothing I do matters. Who cares anymore.
I just want to stop clinging to the delusion that someone will love me one day. The delusion that someone will lay a compassionate gaze upon me, and melt in my embrace. It hurts so much.

>>61015>>61001When you said "we", do you mean you and your family or you and your partner?
I knew a guy who moved to Japan, because of his dad's job. He never learnt the language, despite living there for several years and felt left out because of it.
And yea, Germans are loud, especially after drinking their beloved beer. Always a great experience to be on public transport, when some soccer match takes place.
As a German, I got to say that there are some places I know that offer Mexican food, at least in large cities in the west. Although most of the food is Turkish here.
The population part is surprising, I thought Americans are used to crowded places. When I think of America, I have all those big cities in mind, which have a much higher population than any German city. But I guess that America is much more than its metropolitan areas, as you said. I wish I can go and live in the US at some point in my life, maybe I could get the opportunity through a job. I've tried to apply for diversity visa, but wasn't chosen in the lottery. I've seen YouTube videos of Texas Germans in small towns, with the old people still speaking German. Would be so cool to explore those places. In general, I believe the US has a lot of different places to explore, from cities to nature and people.
What's also funny to me, you've mentioned that everything is so close to each other. When you're German and you're used to it, you don't really pay attention to that / have a different perspective on it. For Americans it's probably a short ride to drive for 4 hours, while Germans see it as a larger time investment, if that makes sense.
In which area of Germany are you anyway?

We tried some Mexican since being here but after living in Colorado it was um…edible? lol but the Turkish food is wowoowowoowow it fills the spot that Mexican food has left lol yufkas doner kebabs are just Turkish burritos and I love them lol
When I moved from the east coast to Colorado, my spouse and I drove and it took like 3 days of driving about 8 hours a day. It was pretty hardcore.
Denver and other big cities in the US are similar in terms of how crowded it “feels”.
But the infrastructure here in Europe is so much better.
Suburbs in the US are awful.
But outside of the suburban nightmare
and glaring problems the US has (but all countries have their problems some more than others except places like N Korea they’re just all bad-the government not the ppl), the US is a massive country. While there isn’t many different
cultures per se, it’s the untouched wild nature that is fantastic.
Also, small towns can be so interesting (creepy) and fascinating depending on where you are in the country.
Anyways that all leads me to ask do you work in tech? If you work in a field that is eligible for visa maybe that could work outside of diversity visa?

>>61029Glad you enjoy Turkish food, as it's basically ubiquitous here, so there's no way that you run out of it haha. I cannot judge how good the Mexican food here is, since I assume you guys had the "original" stuff in the US, but I liked what I had so far.
The longest trips I had were during my exchange semester in Russia. Had my own bed in a 2 day train trip to Saint Petersburg and it felt like a world tour, because I'm used to 3h trips max from living in Germany.
About the infrastructure, better in what way? I heard that public transport is basically non-existent in the US, as you mostly rely on your car to move around.
No, please don't destroy my dream about America's suburbs haha. In my imagination it's a paradise, with a nice community to feel at home with.
Undeniably, the nature is unbelievably beautiful from what I've seen on the internet so far. This also comes from the fact that America has multiple climate zones, making for a very diverse nature.
I'm about to be finished with my information systems degree and got a job secured in external information systems auditing, so it's basically tech in a business context. What industry are you in?
From my point of view, I just think about the US migration system as being "survival of the fittest", where only the best are chosen based on the usefulness of their skillsets for the country. And I wouldn't consider myself to be "best", compared to other talented people from around the world, who also want to migrate.
Funny that you mention Rheinland-Pfalz. My first suggestion for you would've been to visit the city of Trier, as it's not as large, but surrounded by beautiful nature and has old Roman architecture, such as the Porta Nigra. I'm from Nordrhein-Westfalen.
If you have any questions specific to issues in Germany, you can also feel free to ask.
Anonymous 61063
>>61060>About the infrastructure, better in what way? I heard that public transport is basically non-existent in the US, as you mostly rely on your car to move around.NTA, but the most apparent issue is that outside some very specific cities, public transit is non-existent. You have a car or you have a bad time. A lot less obvious is the fact that outside major cities infrastructure is incredibly poorly maintained. In contrast to Germany, for example which has about 2 meters of road per a person, the US has about 20 meters of road per a person. This means US citizens would need to be taxed 10x as much as Germans just to maintain the same level of road quality, obviously, this is not the case. So US roads outside of cities are really fucking shitty.

>>61069 is right about the infrastructure of the US. Even in cities there is hardly any room to walk. I love that European cities have designed areas where pedestrians have designated pedestrians only areas (like shopping districts). It’s amazing (and also more quiet for my poor sensitive overstimulated brain lol).
And you’re right about public transport. If you’re outside of a major metropolitan area and you don’t have a car, you’re basically out of luck as there is almost zero public transport.
When my spouse and I moved to Germany, we were blown away by the European train system.
Really rural areas, like here in Germany (and the rest of Europe) don’t need a robust public transport system. That would really just be a waste of resources.
But there is a push for an actual high speed public rail system that is cost friendly to the public. The railway lines are already there but Amtrak is stupid expensive. It’s cheaper to fly. One of the reasons why the US never developed a robust public railway system past the 40s was due to the automobile industry lobby.
Well. Okay.
Suburbs. Oof. Welp. There are the ticky-tacky mchousing suburbs that are about 80% of what suburbs are now. That’s the suburban nightmare. No one knows each other. All the houses look the same. The constitution is super crappy for the price you pay. No community.
And then there are
neighborhoods. Think areas around main street USA. I lived in a house near walking distance of a downtown once. It was built in the mid 50s. Omg
that was a dream. That’s what you want. Not some current suburban idea. The original idea of suburbia. Its called the street car suburbs. It’s always within walking distance (or a bit father depending) of Main Street regardless of if the town has a street car or not. Newer towns don’t really have this but old towns and cities do. They are amazing.
Gah! I’m in Info science! I’m working on my masters degree right now! That’s so awesome that you’re in info systems! Go girls in stem fields!
Yeah I think that’s true about the US immigration system. I’ve looked up other places like Austria and Switzerland and they’re really, really hard to immigrate too as well. If I remember correctly, Switzerland is harder than the US?

>>61088Saint Petersburg is the most beautiful place I've been to and since it was my exchange semester, it will probably remain the best experience of my life to have been to Russia.
I can't upload videos unfortunately and there are too many pictures to show as well, but there is so much to see, and so many museums to visit, it's just amazing.
The only thing to keep in mind is the fact that it's still Russia, outside of the historical places, you will find yourself in typical commieblocks. But since I dig the melancholic atmosphere of those places, I actually enjoyed it.
Düsseldorf is decent, has its nice places, but is pretty expensive to live in.
From the point of view of an EU citizen, it actually is pretty easy to migrate to Austria and Switzerland. You would just need to find a job within 6 months I think. But I don't know how difficult it is for people outside of the EU.
Oh, I'll have to look up street car suburbs, thanks for the tip. Growing up, we were not the richest, and many middle-class Germans live in their "Einfamilienhaus" in a nice community, which I always saw as the ideal way to live. So when I saw American suburbs, I projected the idea that it must be what people strive towards.
Speaking of infrastructure, it was so funny to see Russian roads outside the cities. Basically death traps, with the way Russians drive.

This is from the second world war museum, which honors the people of Saint Petersburg for their resistance during the city's blockade. It is one of the hero cities, and close to the museum is the victory park. There's just really too much to tell about that city.
What fascinated me is that there's no hate towards Germans, despite the city's history. I would've assumed people would bring up the past a lot, but all people are happy to talk to Germans, especially if they speak Russian as well.

I'm trying to get in contact with my family again.
My biological mother was a drug addict that neglected me and made me watch porn when I was a toddler. I have so little respect for her that I'm legally changing my name since I was named after her. I have not seen her or the rest of her family since I was a toddler.
I want to meet the rest of my family but not her… I know it wasn't my aunts and uncles fault, and especially not my cousin's, so I want to spend a few days with them sometime. How do you do that? I was briefly in contact with my aunt but she didn't respond to my email. I'm in contact with my great uncle too and he is a very good man, but he is also separated from the rest of the family.
I'm scared I'll finally meet my aunts and uncles, then my biological mother will find out, and have some sort of breakdown after discovering I never want to meet her. It is a traumatic thing to lose a child, but it's not worth putting my trauma aside. I dunno.

Should I leave my current job after 3 months there miners ?
It pays awfully (25% below market rate) and the management is retarded and keeps yeeting people around (including me) at whatever project strikes their fancy this month.
But something that bothers me even more is the absolute lack of technical skills in the entire company. The projects I work on are really basic, and yet the people there don't seem to have a good grasp of hiw things work. I was hoping to find a mentor of sorts to grow my skills when I joined, but that is obviously not happening. There is also pretty much no hope of advancement in the company, if it even stays alive (It's a startup if you hadn't guessed by now.)
I have lost all motivation to work for them, and just do the absolute bare minimum, which takes me one hour a day. I can't really muster the strength to work more anyways.
There's also the fact that the management has been putting pressure on people to work at night for basically no pay. I refused obviously, and I will never budge on this, but some of my colleagues have succumbed.
The only things that might make me want to stay are the fact that it's a remote position and that I can pretty much just work 5~10 hours a week without anyone noticing anything. Also the fear of unemployment, and having to find another job. I imagine leaving after 3 months would not look good on my resume.
I know the ideal solution is to work there until I find anothrr job, but I have to decide whether to leave or sign a contract which will prevent me from quitting for the next 5 months. I also have zero energy to look for a job while also working this one.
Please offer me your wisdom wise cafe-goers
Anonymous 61217
>>61215From your post it doesn't sound like you have another job offer available. I would recommend you prepare your resume, start applying to other places immediately, and after you have some offers for other jobs, threaten to leave the company if you don't get a raise of promoted. You should have a fully articulated argument for how it benefit your boss to either give you a raise or promote you, and a set of consequences for you leaving (what you support on your project, why what you do is important). If your boss promotes you, A grade, looks fantastic on your resume and maybe it will convince you to stay, boss says no? Walk away, he can't stop you.
This of course assumes you have the other job, you can try and be this ballsy without the other job prospect, and it can work, but you have to be prepared to be jobless to bargain from a position of strength.
Anonymous 61218
>>61215I think your reasons to stay are enough for 5 more months. If I were in your position, paranoia about the delta variant snowballing into a big deal would make me want to stick it out at a remote job a little while longer.
The lack of a mentor/growth is troubling, is this the kind of gig where you could be working on certifications on the side (or even on company time, given nobody notices your 10 hour weeks)?
Anonymous 61219
>>61217I don't really want to extort them. I'm doing very small amounts of work and honestly I can't muster up the will to do more for them. The company is run by idiots, like I said.
I do not have another offer lined up, but I did not have the strength to search for another job while I was on this one. However, I do not mind being jobless for a few months. I am simply worried that leaving this early will make me unemployable.
Your strategy is sound, however if I choose to stay, I have to sign a contract which states I can't leave of my own accord for the next 5 months (have to get employer's agreement, which they're never going to give me, or do a no-show and wait to be fired). I'd basically be locked in for 5 months if I chose to continue, which is a long time to spend in this mess of a company, hence why I am so torn up over this.

>>61218It's not really the kind of job where certifications are involved, but I could certainly work on personal projects on company time.
The thing is, this job just sucks the life from me. Sounds paradoxical, given how little I actually do, and I can't actually explain why, but at the end of the day I just don't have the will to do anything.
I suppose it's similar to what happens to people who experience brown-out.

My bf refuses to share a bathroom with me
at first he tried to organize my stuff for me in an attempt to keep the bathroom tidy, but I'd have trouble finding things so I asked him to stop that, eventually he just stopped and moved all his stuff to the guest bathroom
I know I'm kind of in the wrong here, but I don't know, I'm kind of miffed despite knowing that I really shouldn't be.

I'm thinking of dating a boy but I feel like a total creep.
For context I was a stupid teen and was in 3 different situations where I let older men do creepy things. When I was 16 a guy tried to groom me then introduced me to 4chan and shit. At 17 my first boyfriend had graduated high school already and I was in junior year. 2nd boyfriend was 8 years older and a straight up pedophile wannabe, but I had just turn 18 so I thought it was ok. Both of them cheated on me and made me do weird stuff sexually that I wasn't comfortable with.
Now I'm 20 and the guy I'm interested in is 18 and is graduating high school this Summer. He has to do some late learning program to graduate because he moved here from another country. I don't want him to feel like I manipulated him into it or anything. Should I just go find someone else?

I miss my mom. My parents relocated across the country when my dad got a promotion and I feel guilty about only missing my mom and not my dad.
Moms are just better than dads.
My dad only ever knew how to show affection by buying me things because he was always working or traveling for work. He would work during family vacations, and he was always on his work email for something no matter where he was.
I see one of my male co-workers doing the same thing and it makes me sad. His daughter is going to end up with daddy issues like me if he keeps it up.
I also kind of hate myself for doing the same thing though, so I'm not one to talk. If I had a work phone with my work email on it, I'd likely also always be doing work too.
There's no way I can have kids with the way I am and expect them to come out okay, the earth is dying anyway so they won't even have a habitable planet to live on.
I wish my dad would have just turned down the promotion so I could see my mom more.

Right up to the fake smiles and pretending I don't feel dead inside part. Sometimes I question why I'm still friends with someone who is either too much of a coward to be honest about his regrets or is such a moron he unironically thinks it's possible to try to keep some kind of FWB relationship with an ex and not make her grow to resent him. Moids perplex me and I wish I wasn't so spineless and considerate of a person who clearly doesn't consider me even half as much.

Last night at approximately 11:30 I vomited on my mom's work bag, it's like a fabric suitcase that carries files and her laptop.
So I HURBURLURBLRLRLR over the mirror, the floor, my sleeve and this work bag, and I managed to wipe it off everything BUT the bag, and there's white stuff in the zipper parts. She hasn't noticed it yet, but I think it's going to smell soon, and then I may have to tell her, but she might get angry. But I had to wipe quickly because she makes me go to bed at 10:30 normally, I'm not allowed to be downstairs past then. So I had to leave it after so many attempts to wipe it. I hope she doesn't find out.

Since leaving school I've been quite lonely. I've become such a shut in and engaged in unsociable hobbies that aren't very productive. I have a few contacts but I fantasise about meeting new people all the time or atleast getting the chance to gain one true friend I can be clingy with. The weather's been so nice lately and I wish I had was enjoying it with someone.

I was cyberstalking my friend's friend because I'm a madwoman, and I think I accidentally found out my friend is a certified piece of shit.
The Friend's-friend posted about an abusive ex and detailed some horrid shit he did. Now, I have no proof it's my friend - I've never met friend's-friend and he allegedly wasn't dating her when I asked if she was his gf. But I did notice they had a falling out last year and mutual friends of theirs also unfollowed him.
Since I don't actually know anyone in this group it could definitely be someone else and the drama with my friend was separate, but it doesn't look great. I really thought they were dating before I asked and he could just have lied lmao.
He's always been overly kind with me (as nice as a man can be) and even the opposite of shit this bf did to friend's-friend. I'd assume he'd do this specific shit to every woman but who knows. Some men lose their morals only when dating a woman.
Just feels bad to stay his bro if he's abused women. But I also don't know if it's him and can't ask directly because it would out me as a weirdo. I'll have to covertly ask about her or befriend her friends or something.

I don't thimk I can keep going. I just don't see any reason. I live in a shitty country where you earn like 1% of what you normally make in any normal country. Even third world countries earn way more. My family has a lot of debts, my mom can't keep working and they're doing everything they can to help me study but I'm not good enough at anything. They've sold a lot of things to pay for my education, but I keep failing in all my classes and they don't know about it. I feel like the biggest piece of shit. Today I've been crying all day because they sent me my grades and they are awful again, but my parents think I'm doing great because I've always been the good daugther, because I used to be the smart child who helped their parents and I never gave them a reason for not to trust in me, because I'm too scared of how they'll feel when they know that I'm a failure. They believe me everything and that hurts even more, because I know they love me, I know they work hard to give me a chance for my future. They want me to finish my education and find me a way to leave this shithole, but I can't make it. I honestly try, but I just can't focus on studying, I can't remember the dates, I can't do anything. Sometimes when I'm trying to study I just end up crying because I feel so stupid for not being able to understand anything.
I guess I could try to be honest with them and accept my life working in a shitty job for the rest of my life, but I don't think I'm capable of keeping a job. I can't focus on anything, even writing this is hard.
I tried talking with an old friend which I haven't talk in a while because I really needed to talk with someone and she tried to understand, but at the end she just told me "Why don't you try going to therapy?". I wish I could, but we're barely eating, we don't have the money for those things. I don't blame her for not understanding, because she left the country years ago before this turned into a nightmare, but still… I wish someone could hug me and tell me everything is going to okay, but I don't have anyone.

>>61645Anon, I'm sorry to hear that, really. Being unable to focus is very familiar to me and it has also affected my studies. Have you always had this difficulty to focus? Has it gotten worst as you grow up? For the last couple years I have felt particulary unfocused and things have now slowly gotten better. My economical situation is not good either (debts,only small spendings allowed, etc). In order to pay my education I've relied on scholarships, those my country gives to students whose parents (in my case my mother, my father is deceased) earn little. This is unrelated to grades, so as far as you pass a certain number of subject you will have the money. Does your country have something similar? I'm assuming you're in your last year of HS so maybe this isn't an option yet, but if by any chance you're in college you could ask for those even if you need to repeat the last year of college, and if you would like to start college next year this is something to bear in mind. I hope you have another chance after summer to do the exams again.
It is extremely important that you fix you attention span. A proper nutrition (iron and B12 are very important for this, also magnesium) is key. I know fancy food and quality fruit, vegetables, fish and meat are expensive, but in summer fruit is very affordable, specially if you buy things from your local area. Meat and fish about to expire usually become cheaper on supermarkets. You could search for some affordable vitamins in a pharmacy. Avoiding bad habits and meditating can help too. And then there's the ''serotoning retriction'' thing, I can't remember the exact name. Is when you cut off spontaneous desires like finding a video on yt, eating random snacks or whatever your gut asks you to do without thinking. It's about learning self control while dedicating all that time to the things you MUST do.
What would you like to do with your life if thing get better? Establishing reasonable goals is a healthy way to approach your future.

You single-handedly fuel my misogyny, because I’ve never seen a moid who would have the personality of overcooked rice. That said, rice doesn’t make me nauseous, unlike talking to you. You’re like a Sunday school preacher who’s for all the good and against all the bad, except you have an unrealistically low plank for what you consider bad, and the moment i cross it, you start painfully twisting my nipples until you’re tired. You always try to be as inoffensive as chewed crumb, except that you want others to be so, and except that this behavior is sickening. A person doesn’t have to larp as nice and gentle all the time, you aren’t a fucking smurf villager, being straightforward or having some confidence isn’t bad, you castrated sloth. You always act like you have the moral high ground, and when I disagree, that’s when you squeeze your toxic glands and shower me with their goo. You never came across as a big schizo but damn, what the fuck is wrong with you? Why do I have to watch myself with you as if I were talking to my grandma? Also, you’re a shit friend. Knowing someone over the internet doesn’t always equal physical friendships for everyone, but you still pretend I’m some kind of hacker and never share anything personal at all. Like I’ll fucking dox you if you ever reveal your brother’s name. Or anyone’s, really. The only name I know from your life is of your dumb old cat. And whenever there’s a [n imaginary] conflict of interests that puts me on one side and some random fucker on the opposite, you always choose to white-knight the other person and shit on me. Or even when there’s no conflict at all, I am the last to get a piece of your precious normie attention. I get it, we aren’t soulmates, but why do I still have to be the one doing the dirty job of bearing with your toxic niceness and let it slip? If you had at least one vertebra in your spine, you could just tell me you don’t want to be friends. Four years ago, as I was scrolling through that app, I saw a photo of a teen girl who looked like an elementary school librarian. I thought, if I practice with an NPC, it’s still practice. Well fuck. Big mistake. I am tired of trying to open the door to the engaging part of your personality because it seems there’s nothing behind. Fuck you, cunt.

wall of text warning.. sorry
I have this online friend I've known for around a year that I feel really close to, a lot closer than most friends I have even IRL and we've shared a lot together. I know what some will think, that it's not real or online friendships can't be real, etc, but he has been a good friend to me.
anyway. we used to talk every single day but in the past two months that has slowed down significantly. part of that is because we both have gotten busier and can't just talk all the time like we used to but another thing is he has been suffering from really bad depression and stress lately. it's gotten to the point where our interactions have grinded to a halt, and it feels like our friendship is basically on pause. I checked up on him two months ago after it had been nearly a week without a word, and he got back to me the same day and we had a conversation about his stress, what he was going through, anxiety, panic attacks, etc. we ended off by saying our good nights and I asked him to check up when he can so I know he's doing well. I cringe at this in retrospect.. he probably felt like I was mommying him. anyway. I got nothing for two weeks and got worried so I messaged again just checking in, he apologized for not saying anything and said that the stress has been making it hard for him to reach out and that he's wanted some alone time. I asked if he wanted to talk about it and he said not really, so we talked about some other stuff until the conversation died. since then, it's been over two weeks now without a word again and I'm feeling that urge to check in again but I feel like such a both. it's something I've done twice now and I just get the vibe that he doesn't want to talk to me right now, but I also really need someone to talk and agh.. I just feel selfish. maybe I am overthinking it and he wouldn't be bothered but it really does feel like that, like he's lost interest in speaking to me and our friendship is fading. the talks slowing down before this big loss of communication between us is what really got me all anxious and worked up I think. idk. I'm just nervous.
what should I do? even just an hour ago I debated sending a message like "it's been a while, how have things been with you?" but something about it feels wrong or like I shouldn't. and I feel like maybe I should wait for him to send something first when he's ready. I know I must sound obsessive and stupid writing all this and trust me I have been trying to keep myself busy and distracted.. work, exercise, reading, hobbies, etc. I just can't help it.
TL;DR: I've had little to no communication with a friend I care deeply about for two months, I've checked in twice with some success but weeks between every interaction, wanting to check in a third time but not sure if it's a good idea or if I should just wait for him to come to me.

I feel like I've been choosing men over the mere fact they gave me attention and weren't optionally mean to me. Which led me a quite miserable dating life. I'm 18 years old, now, and I've lived 3 awful relationships and one that was pretty much grooming (i was just 15 when he was an adult).
I started my dating life in quite a desperate cry for help in the end of middle school because I craved internet attention to escape the fact other girls bullied me at school. These girls made my childhood and coming of age part of my life awful and made myself deeply misogynistic if not totally hateful towards my female peers.
So here I was dating men for long-term relationships with almost little to no break in-between as a massive cope for my loneliness and these men weren't the most respectful. I was just a bro with a vagina for them because I don't have enough of a feminine aura but have lots of male aura. And this confusion made me believe I was a ftm for quite the long time. While in fact I just need a supportive lady group, because I never got to know one and keep hiding behind a tomboyish style and way of though. I just wish to be feminine.
My mom didn't let me hang out after school with anybody , my mom also refused pajama parties with girls so eventually, my mom made me cut ties with any other girls of my age and totally forbid me to date anyone… Which made me date people in secret and it lead to quite de desastreous result.
I repeat myself by saying that but.. I really wish to be cute, to be elegant, not a femme Fatale but just a cute and elegant girl.. I'm tired of letting myself go, never styling my short hair nor wax or shave because I find it too painful or put make up, i just look like a butch Lesbian when I'm pretty much heterosexual or maybe biscum. Adding to that that I'm still sort of young, I am 18, and i still don't know if I'll go to university or ask for online formations because I'm too afraid of men(i want to study informatics and maths, a mostly masculine field).
I really wish to stop being a tomboy. Tomboys don't attract men, they attract boys that don't want to be anything more than a casual relationship, which I'm not into, because I'm tired of being used as a ladder.
I've seen some publications about how to train your feminine aura but i really come from far far far away I'd need a group to help me out and support me.
Also I do seek therapy but therapies aren't like a friend group, therapy makes you feel heard and cope about the past, a friend group is for present and future. Thank you for reading

Your mother was probably trying to protect you. The other things she forbid you don't make any sense but this… Does she even know you have dated men? Did you sleep with them?

I feel awful for being such an emotionally and verbally abusive piece of shit to my ex boyfriend. I want to apologise at times but I know I would probably only make things worse. To be fair, I was often on drugs, but that doesn’t excuse it. I don’t even recognise that person I used to be. I feel so much guilt for hurting the poor dude. He didn’t deserve it. It saddens me that I will forever be that abusing bitch in his mind.

>>61650Thanks anon. It makes me feel better to know about someone that got better. I was freaking out last night and I still feel sad, but I feel better right now.
I'm in college, but I'm fairly young to be in my last year.
My country has scholarships, but it isn't easy to get one. You need to know someone who works for the government, be a supporter of the main party or be the perfect student. I probably would have more luck looking for someone to pay for my education, because there is plenty of people who help people from my country.
Eating better isn't an option. I don't think I'm eating everything I need, but I don't think what I'm eating is awful.
The serotoning restriction sounds good, I'll read about it.
>>61664>Maybe the lack of focus is from emotional stress?Yeah, probably. My mom is sick and my dad works almost 24/7, and I managed to get out from an abussive relationship just when the pandemic was starting. Since then, I've been at home pretty much all the time. The only social interaction I have is with a few internet friends and the rest is just cooking, studying and cleaning.
I was trying to hide how all these makes me feel, but I don't think is helping me at all.

I'm so tired of our neighbors dragging their kid around our yard every single day and constantly finding excuses for us to entertain the kid or hold or feed or whatever the fuck comes to their mind next. If you weren't prepaired to have a child then they shouldn't have had it. #2 is on the way as well, which is great, ANOTHER kid that'll just get dragged along and need to be taken care of.
It's not like the kid has nothing else to do. They're pretty well of, shower the kid with toys, are basically constantly around him etc. Raising a kid isn't easy, I understand. But I'm not gonna take care of someone else's kid. I should not be expected to drop everything I'm doing at the moment because it feels bored. We all have our lives to live.

My sister wore a low cut top showing her cleavage. Just a simple cute crop top, nothing sexual. And my boyfriend stared at it continuously, so obviously too. he thought he was so discrete. He got a raging boner and tried to hide it. It was so obvious he had one coz he crossed his legs and adjusted his pockets.
Why can’t my boyfriend get boners only for me.
I don’t get wet at the thought of other men. Or gawk and leer at them…

PTSD took over my fucking life, and I was lazy - I didn't get help. I've just deteriorated. Maybe it's imposter syndrome, or because I don't have any external achievements to show for my intellect.

I had some notepad files where I vented to myself and wrote down some thoughts, and in them I would occasionally vent about my bf and the things I am unsatisfied with in our relationship. For the record it was for my own catharsis and I would bring things up with him and talk things out, it was just meant for me.
Anyways, he found them. And he read every last one of them. And now he's acting pissy with me and has major passive-aggression and condescension to his tone any time he talks to me now, and he goes out of his way to make little snipes in reference to things I vented about. When I ask to talk about it he says he needs time or brushes it off, and earlier today told me to "go write about it".
I'm really just tired of this. I guess he feels that I went behind his back and have withheld some kind of anger or feelings of resentment or something against him since some of those notepad documents were a little harsh, but again, they were for ME. They were private. He isn't even considering that he went behind my back to look at them, and instead of asking me about any of it or even giving me time lately to talk through it, he just assumes that I'm some vindictive bitch and is choosing to be mad about it. FML. I feel like I'm being gaslit into feeling bad for having feelings that can't be immediately expressed.

>>61849Firstly I wouldn't snoop and invade someone else's privacy like that. And the things in there weren't severe when it comes to the actual issues, it's not like I was writing in there that I thought he was a failure of a man or that I couldn't wait to cheat on him or something. Almost everything I have written there are things that I later brought to him as points of conversation and issues we have worked through together.. sometimes it just starts as something to vent my frustrations about. That's all. What makes it harsh or "severe" sometimes is the level of frustration but I still don't think it was ever THAT bad. But I do understand if he would read it and get his feelings hurt or feel offended, insulted. However, if he just shuts me out and doesn't let me explain anything and assumes I was just being some evil bitch behind his back, how can I ever answer for that or even apologize?
And as I was saying.. almost NONE of this was
kept from him. I would say at least 80 to 90 percent of those documents were things we have already covered and talked about, the exception being some newer things. I do get why he is feeling this way but I am upset because he 1. went through my things in a sketchy way and 2. is now making an effort to withhold from me out of spite, and the lack of communication here is making it so I can't even defend myself.

When you do talk to him I wouldn't get into "you shouldn't have read that in the first place". If it was me I would not want to hear that. I am picturing if I found out my bf was cheating on me and his defense was "Well you weren't supposed to find out." It just has nothing to do with the issue at hand. Just tell him it was a way for you to privately get your thoughts in order before bringing them to him and that it was never meant to be a secret, just workshopping what you wanted to say. It kind of sounds like that's what it was.

I do agree with you that telling him he shouldn't have found it would probably not be the best approach.. BUT, I am still hurt that he invaded my privacy. I don't think I can just leave that unsaid. I won't open with it, though. The main thing here is I want to explain to him what those documents are for, why I said those things, why I sometimes feel I need that catharsis, etc. It feels like a bad case of misunderstanding but I also don't want to make him feel undermined or like he's not heard so I will have to be careful when we do talk about I guess.

Needless to say a lot of the stuff in there was hurtful and upsetting and a bit disturbing. I tried to let it go but like your bf I also couldn’t help making snide remarks at times - yeah it’s immature but it was coming from a place of deep hurt and insecurity, since my bf had been saying similar things about how he wasn’t sure how he really felt about me or whether he saw a future with me, and talking about other women. It pretty much destroyed our relationship and in the end the mistrust and resentment on my side was so strong I couldn’t do it anymore. I wish I could have been more forgiving, but some of the things I read were pretty unforgivable.
Shit happens, everyone says things in private they regret, and I’m sure your bf has said stuff about you too to friends or strangers online, if you’re meant to stay together then you will work through it. If he can’t get over it. And you were venting about how unhappy you were anyway. Maybe you should just break up.

Last night I dreamt about one of my old bullies from middle school. He walked up to me to laugh at me, while I was just sitting on my desk minding my own business (As it usually happened IRL). Instead of not doing or saying anything as I normally would, however, I snapped his arm in half and then he just walked away without saying anything. My dominance was asserted and after that I knew he or any other number of horrible classmates I used to have in that class would absolutely never bully me again.
Normally I have very (muchemore so) violent and messed up dreams, so it's nothing new but ones where I committ the violence myself still tend to surprise me. IRL I am pretty non-confrontational and consider myself pretty peaceful. I've never had any aggressive behaviors. If anything I feel emotionally constipated most of the time, but in that case I wonder if I don't get these dreams as a way to channel my anger.
One of the dreams that scarred me was where I sawed off one of my middle school classmate's arms and legs, and he wasn't even a bully. He was just someone I didn't like and that kind of annoyed me IRL. I would never have thought of doing something like that IRL.

i sat in the disgusting bathroom for 20 minutes today because i couldnt stop crying and i had to go home early because crying in the office is utterly humiliating so what choice did i have if i couldnt stop crying because i'm fucking absolutely MISERABLE. i requested wfh, even just partially, and they refused saying they "ran out of computers to issue." i have to sit in that fucking cage 8 hours a day 5 days a week and every minute of it i have suicidal ideation i never had while working from home
every other aspect of this job is alright enough but i can't stand offices, oh my god i hate it i hate it I HATE IT I HATE IT. in public view the entire time, no privacy, no chance to relax and let my guard down even a minute, it's always freezing cold and i'm uncomfortable and want to stretch or rest my eyes but can't. how the fuck am i supposed to keep this fucking bullshit up
they promised to give me training after 6 months so i can get promoted and start making better money but i've been promised shit like that before and the company fucked me over. and given how fucking MISERABLE i am it's hard to stay ENTHUSIASTIC AND HAPPY AND POSITIVE all fucking day long so they'll probably use the excuse "you dont seem passionate enough so we'll have to keep you in the entry level meat grinding position at poverty wages". god i just want to die i want to blow my fucking brains out i sit there in that fucking wagecage and just think about how shit it is and how i wish i was dead

Mom-has-braincancer-anon back to complain about it some more.
Brother just told me that since the brain tumor came back really quickly and next weeks operation probably won't change that, that I should expect mom to only live a few more months.
Meanwhile my sister is pining for the inheritence in the weirdest way. It was always the plan for brother to get the weekend house, sis get the apartment and me to get the savings + be paid out by sister (since the apartment is by far the most valuable asset).
Now my sister is acting weird. She says it's unfair that I get to live in the apartment rent free (I actually pay rent to my mom, she doesn't despite being in the apartment most weeks). She wants me out of it but she also doesn't want to have to pay me my share of the inheritance or pay for maintenance while she studies in a different town BUT she also wants to keep it since she is here so often and needs a place to stay.
Like, I offered to pay maintenance and loan as long as I live here. I offered to take the apartment and pay her out. I offered to move out immediately but then I wouldn't pay into the apartment. And from the beginning I said I don't need my part of the inheritance immediately, she can start paying me out in 5-10 years.
None of it is good enough for her.
It's like she wants me to just take the money mom has saved and immediately move out of the apartment but then still pay maintenance so she can afford this apartment and the one in her college town.
My brother stepped in and said he'd be willing to take the apartment as well and take up a loan to pay us both out immediately which seems like the smartest option. He already has an apartment in our hometown and so he'd be close enough to handle being a landlord. But again, then my sister wouldn't have anywhere to stay when she wants to during her weeks off. God, that girl is and has always been a pain.
My plans are pretty open. I was hoping to keep living at home and save up for a few more years so I can move to a cheaper part of europe and buy a house. But whether I do that next year or in 5 years is unimportant. Still, I feel thrown into the deep end by all of this.
Also damn about everyone acting so casual when mom is literally on the verge of death. Feels like the time to take out a loan and fly to god knows where and finish off moms bucket list but I have literally only now been told that she probably has less than two years.
Sorry for the constant ramblings on here but I don't have anywhere else to talk about it.

>>62345i'm so sorry, anon. that must be devastating. i fucking hate moneygrubbing creeps that make grieving even more difficult with this inheritance shit. i hope this doesn't interfere with your time with your mom, but unfortunately, greedy psychos don't care and people will go nuts and burn all bridges and create so much misery over the prospect of inheriting even very little.
>And from the beginning I said I don't need my part of the inheritance immediately, she can start paying me out in 5-10 years. terrible idea. this is a prime opportunity for her to take your money and it becoming an absolute nightmare in order to recover it. stop kowtowing to your sister, she seems far more interested in the money than your mother's wellbeing. DO NOT cede ground to people like this, they DO NOT stop pushing it further and further. who is set to be the executor of her estate? does she have a POA and an advance directive? why aren't you all getting equal portions of the estate? it doesn't need to be divided like this, and your sister's childish demands can fuck off. it's your mom's choice as to who she wants what to go to, not hers. while it's good to be prepared, things also get really nasty when people start aching for their relatives to die. braincancer is grim, but there's always a chance she might live quite a bit longer than expected. i hope for her sake and yours that that's the case.

I’ve been talking to a guy I met on 4chan, he is cute and sweet but he admitted he lost his virginity to a hooker last year and I’m…just so turned off and disgusted by that I am considering just ghosting him. Even if he was a 40 year old virgin this would be 1000x less pathetic than paying for sex, it just makes me feel nauseated knowing someone treats sex that cheaply, and I don’t want to give someone like that my virginity. Its disappointing because he is good in every other way.
Anonymous 62377
>>62376Give him a chance. Moids are conditioned from childhood to think of sex as something cheap. Just make sure to give him a nudge in the right direction and make sure he regrets it.
Also props to him for not denying it, I'd imagine that most men would.
Anonymous 62378
>>62377It’s way too disgusting and offputting for me to overlook. Any guy who is happy to pay strangers for sex is probably going to cheat or end up using escorts later on in his relationships too if he views sex that way and is fine with illegal activities. If I continue to talk to him I will probably just end up being passive aggressive and snarky about it. I cbf compromising on my principles anymore.

I don't know how old you are but I will assume you are not that old. There are a lot of treatments for afid now. Laser ablation is one of them. You will need to be on a blood thinner while doctors find the best solution. Have you seen a specialist yet?

>>62496He could be schizo and certainly his blocking everyone so suddenly is schizo behavior. But he could also just be using it as an excuse to be shitty and selfish and avoidant and drop people when he feels like it. Either way schizo guys aren’t very good relationship material especially unmedicated ones and ones who are known to cheat on their ex gfs. I know how it feels to get attached to people quickly and it hurts a lot when people just drop you like that but you can’t put yourself at his mercy. Because even if he starts talking to you again, he’ll just keep doing it again and again. And it’ll cause you pain. Use this time away from him to emotionally detach from him. It hurts I know but there’s plenty cute non schizo guys out there who won’t ghost everyone at the drop of a hat.

>>62499Yeah, hes definitely schizo or autistic or something. He was also molested by an older woman and generally doesn't really go out of his way to be around women from what I know about him. I will not put myself at his mercy because I need to prove to myself that I can be happy and don't need to depend on the validation of men and really need to work on my own trauma, and stop getting in dangerous situations.

As if everyone already isn't obsessed with helping men (ppl even want to nurture homicidal incels ffs) and female pain is not bellitled and ignored (there was a study on this shit I recall). Like the only reason why women get more help considering their mental health problems is because women ask for help for their mental health problems (most ppl who go to psych are female), whereas men don't want to appear "weak" and "woman-like" and try to appear tough by ignoring their problems completely - funny how even their reason for worse mental health is misogynistic

I want to get rid of a friend that is too possessive. I sometimes wonder if she's a bippie, but she didn't act toxic towards me before - I think covid induced isolation played a part in her explosive behaviour.
Basically, she lashed out at me on text for never responding to her messages, not caring about her, that I made her suffer, that she or mutual friends didn't understand what was up, and insisted to call me. I was reluctant, because I wasn't amazed at the expectation of getting screamed on on the phone for no sensible reason.
Eventually did, and she basically acted in a way that reminded me of middleschool dramas (she's 28), saying that I didn't care about our friendship, that it was so important to her, it made her suffer so much. She basically guilt tripped me for something pretty normal : I moved to another region for work, I'm busy (she doesn't work because of her disability), so I talk to her less. Doesn't mean she's not a friend anymore. But she couldn't hear that, and blackmailed me about reservations for a festival : if I didn't behave the way she wanted, she would drop my room resrvation.
It really annoyed me, so I told her that her behaviour wasn't acceptable and she needed profesional help. She then cried about her abandonment issues (her dad left), but is it a reason to act as such ? It would only drive friends away from her, and repeat the circle of abandonment. I told her only a psych could help, but obviously she didn't want to listen. She was also mad because I didn't answer her when she told me she could come to my birthday party at the last minute, when the friend she invited at her place couldn't come so she was free. I mean, I was busy partying ?
I still made it up to her, because I thought that we still got along well before, yet I don't want to see her again, especially not invite her at my place in the end of the month (she insisted to come as a proof of our friendship). She can't stop sending me messages on different apps even if I don't respond to all of them.
I feel like something is broken, and I hate when people try to manipulate me with guilt-tripping, which she did.
I'm not sure about how i should go with this. I'm not mad at her or anything, I just want space. Since she can't understand it, should I ask her for a break, or simply end the friendship ?
It's just weird, it sounds like I'm talking about a break-up. Something weird is up.
Fuck, I have friends with various traumas, and they never acted this way towards me.

my crush lives 5500 miles away and it sucks. he said he wouldn't date me unless i lived next to him. we are a thing but it will probably never lead to anything. he makes me so happy but the fact that we will eventually stop talking and i'll never get to be with him makes me feel depressed. ive never loved a boy this much. i dont even want to be with any other guy. i wish i didnt love so hard.

It’s a shame because he is very cute and nice a lot of the time but he’s just…kinda dead inside and it’s sad.

I was living mainly out of nutritional supplements and it was kinda hard, now I'm actively trying to improve it. And even that, something that you should consider is to experiment things on yourself, this is a thing that we don't learn in school, but you can mess with your diet and keep track of it in a journal. Do you keep a journal? Writing one was a turning point in my life, in the sense of getting (some) control of my time back, you can use it to plan what you pretend to do, what you did, and definitely to keep track of your diet. I used this thing to think methods of dealing with my chronic migraines. It works for anything, because you have access to a broader time frame when compared just to your memories.

If you can't be honest with your school counselor, you can talk to them, right? Because internet advice is always going to be shit, specially in an anonymous forum. Ideally you should talk to people who know you and are aware of your context.

Realizing that this isn't doing anything is a decent start, but you have to change, because until now you have been repeating this pattern. Exposing your life to strangers on the internet, specially when you are in bad shape is a sign of things being pretty fucked up if you ask me. Ideally you should be somewhat wary of things. That is because people are fucked up, anon. I wish things weren't this way, but the internet is filled with bad people who can smell weakness from miles and they will find a way to approach you and take advantage of you.
You should ask for help, if your parents can't help you out, consider doing some extra effort to talk to this school counselor or something. Maybe an anonymous letter or email? You are probably a smart kid, I'm sure you can figure something out.

I’ve successfully wasted the past 2 years of my life after graduation because I couldn’t deal with my failure. I got kicked out of my shitty job because I literally could not bring myself to work. I try to not think about offing myself, but it’s hard. It’s been this way all my life. I wish I was one of those happy kids.
I’m not even 21 years old yet, but I can’t physically get out of bed. And I know this sounds dumb, but I feel like it’s over for me.
This mainly stems from the fact that my parents had me at 52 and then stopped caring. I raised myself by myself in parentally-imposed isolation. And now I….I don’t know what to do. I even fucked up at school because I was so sad all the time. And now I have nothing. I feel so…..wasteful. I just wish they aborted me. I want to feel different. I want to do different. But I don’t know how. I can’t physically being myself to it.
My paranoia is getting bad, too. I feel like someone will stalk me and look at my life and laugh at what a failure I am. Anytime I have to put myself out there I get scared.

>>62885All right, I've been in a somewhat similar situation and whatever you do, change things, ok? Move furniture out of places, clean your room a bit, but try to improve something, and definitely make an effort to get outside and be in the sun a bit.
If every day feels like the same to you, and you can't really differentiate them, this journaling thing will help you a lot. You are going to make entries everyday, don't skip it, focus on building an habit, and even if you haven't felt like doing anything else all day. Write it down: "I haven't got out of the bed and didn't felt like doing anything". Eventually, you will start writing about how you feel, what do you want to do, possible ways of dealing with your problems and so on. Those are going to be the entries that you will mark in some way and read them again later. You have to read them later, or rewrite them in another piece of paper.
Also, do you read books? Consider reading an intro to psychology book and maybe a book on therapy. I think CBT is the kind of thing that is doable by oneself, definitely not the best approach possible, but doable, considering that you are willing to be honest and that you have writing on your side. Eventually, you will figure out things, don't worry. Best of luck to you.

I might never finish them, I'm not a professional writer or anything, but one is about emotions and books, in the sense of how someone can use books to develop their emotions and the other one is basically a self-help one, which I think it is somewhat stupid, but still, considering what is out there, I think that most authors don't understand what anons go through.
And I want you to take a deep breath, inhale air through your nose, feel the air passing through your nostrils and filling your chest, hold it a bit and exhale through your mouth in an "AAAAH", as if you are relieved of something. Do it a couple of times. Try to get back to your actual senses, and feel everything, when you drink water or something, feel the coldness of it and it going inside your body. Do it with everything, and eventually you will feel more dissociated from this kind of artificial interaction that we are having through the internet.
Also, pay attention to your thoughts, whenever you catch yourself having bad thoughts. Pretend that you are talking to a friend and talk to yourself as if you were talking to that friend. This will become clear if you start writing, and those thoughts will start to rise and you will become more aware of the patterns. Eventually you'll learn how to deal with everything, realize that things aren't that bad, and move with your own feet. Your aim is to become your own best friend, I think this makes sense. Ask me if this doesn't seem clear, because this is important.

>>62117The other night I had another dream where I broke someone's arm. This time it was my grandma's. I looked into what it may mean and I found some explanations on this site that really resonated with me.
http://dreamyobsession.com/what-does-dreaming-about-breaking-someones-arm-mean/
>Dreaming about breaking someone’s arm reveals that you need kindness. You want contact and support. Being alone does not work for you. Dreaming about breaking someone’s arm reephasizes that you are a sociable person who need contact with others.Since quarantine started, I've resorted to being a shut-in again and feeling increasingly consumed by loneliness. A friend of mine constantly shares with me pictures of herself with this girl she is hanging out with and it makes me feel even lonelier. I thought this lifestyle was something I was used to, since I used to be a hikineet for awhile before, but I guess even I have my limits.
I've thought about how at this point I could practically die and no one would realize for weeks. Not until the smell hits my roommate, at least.
>Dreaming about breaking someone’s arm reveals that you are in a difficult professional phase. You are doing a great job and your managers love you. Your fellow workers are full of praise for you, they like working with you because you are always in a good mood. Dreaming about breaking someone’s arm indicates that, generally speaking, you enjoy your work, but sometimes you feel you want more. You know that you are equipped for more. Your current tasks have become mechanical, you no keep doing the same thing and don’t learn anything. Dreaming about breaking someone’s arm shows that you are ready for an progression but nothing happens. This makes you doubt your knowledge. This is true. I've gotten praised by my managers at my campus job several times now and I get along well with them. However, this job isn't very career-related and I am wanting to move into a internship that can start giving me more experience in the field I'm actually trying to go into, ASAP. The feeling of stagnating feels unbearable.

Getting a new special interest (diagnosed ASD) for me feels pretty weird and sometimes psychotic, as in thinking about [interest] 90% of the time, hearing words related to [interest] in basically random noises, obsessive weird and unpleasant thoughts about [interest] or related to it.
Usually I just wait it out 'til I can just function again, but the waiting period is always a bit grim especially if I can't share the interest with someone due to lack of friends/[interest] being niche as fuck/elitism in the communities related to [interest].
The worst part of it is unexpectedness; I can't choose what I'll be interested like this in.

Well god damn, sounds like a good first step. Using this as a basis we might even be able to set up some goals, sounds like it's a struggle to do one page, but tell me, what do you think would be something you could just barely manage to do? Is one page a good one? Could you even go for two? What do you think you could possibly get yourself to do? We know standing up is out of reach, for now, but what do you think you can convince yourself to do?
>I’d also like to study seeing as I’m academically light years behind everyone, but that’s already hard since I can’t bring myself to move.
Well studying involves reading and if you're reading at least one page a day you've successfully put yourself one non-zero increment towards studying. Hell it doesn't even have to be non-fiction, practicing reading is practicing reading.

Sorry, I keep deleting. I’m getting anxious and paranoid again.
I think one page is cool. Maybe I’ll try to increase a paragraph or a page everyday. I don’t want to try and do something too big and then crash.
Maybe also regularly self-groom, like try to shower regularly (I know). That’s harder but maybe that’s the next step, after I try reading.

>>62983>I think one page is cool. Maybe I’ll try to increase a paragraph or a page everyday. I don’t want to try and do something too big and then crash.If you feel that is correct, go for it, but I would honestly recommend against it. You've barely managed to read one page, perhaps master just reading one page a day for a week and see how you feel at the end of it.
Also, you've only solved half the problem, per say, you've decided what you want out of yourself (reading one page), but have you honestly asked yourself what you could give yourself as a reward for reading that one page? Anything at all?
>Maybe also regularly self-groom, like try to shower regularly (I know). That’s harder but maybe that’s the next step, after I try reading.Well, again, this isn't about what you should be doing, as much as it is physically honestly concretely accepting what it is you are
currently capable of doing, and pushing that to the absolute edge. If you feel absolutely confident that you could get yourself to go and take that shower, that sounds good. If you're instead comparing yourself to an arbitrary standard, and saying you
should be able to do this, you're most likely not going to reach your goal as fast as you may like.
Do you feel confident that you could actually take that shower during those times? I don't care what the answer is, I just want an honest response either way.
Anonymous 62985
>>62983>but have you honestly asked yourself what you could give yourself as a reward for reading that one page? Anything at all? This wasn't stated right, perhaps the better way of looking at this isn't "what could you give yourself", it's asking yourself "what would I
need to give myself as a reward to get to that goal?"
Anonymous 62987
>>62986
>I’ve never thought of the reward part.
Looks like we're exploring new territory already! Perhaps rewarding yourself for doing the right thing might be the missing step, that still requires a reward to exist though.
>When I was younger, reading itself was the reward.
Well, hopefully we can get back to there someday, but I'm going to posit that if you're struggling to read a single page you're probably not finding it that enjoyable yet, or you would simply be reading more. So let's say that "doing the thing in and of itself" is not a good reward for you.
>Now I’m not really sure what would be considered a reward for me now when everything—talking, moving—is very difficult to do. The reward itself has become a painful chore.
Well do you eat anything? Perhaps mouth pleasure is a good step? You browse your phone all day instead of just laying in bed, your body obviously responds to the phone to some degree, perhaps, what, an hour of guilt-free browsing? The only one who can answer this question is you, just ask yourself and listen quietly for the response as long as you need to. What's not important is what the reward is, just that your body has something to actually get rewarded for doing the right thing.
>As for the shower, my honest answer is no. I can’t.
In that case, let's put that off for now, you seem to believe that one page a day, for a week is doable, yes? If not we can reduce it, we just want anything that could be a possible improvement, a goal you can just barely reach as far as you yourself have judged.

>A thing I’m observing now is I sort of fucked up myself by overdosing on rewards so much that they lost all of their meaning and became tiresome.Oh it may be far worse than that, you probably indulged in all sorts of rewards and then constantly mentally berated yourself for doing nothing to earn said rewards, and berated yourself for indulging in said rewards. What we're trying to do is get your physical systems oriented just a tiny bit that when you do the "right thing" you feel better (reward) without guilt from indulging in said reward. We seem to have the negative reinforcement part down, but let's work on positive reinforcement so your "punish/reward systems" have some actual direction.
>So now I’m tired and bloated from an excess of rewards (the same you feel tired and gross after eating fast food) — and if I try to cut back the rewards then I have to find an reward for that.

I keep reading the SuicideBereavement subreddit as some sick form of self-harm, and I have to fucking say it, as horrible and tragic as some of the stories are, I fucking. Hate. some of the posters down to their very cores. Maybe I've spiraled so far down that I've lost any ability to have empathy, but like, there's so many people who SAW THEIR LOVED ONES WERE FUCKED UP, who saw they were isolated, alienated, not talking to anyone, distressed, wilting, and without lifting a single finger, without bothering to check in on them, to pay at least a fleeting bit of attention, without guilt, let them perish. Fuck, some of them even BEGGED FOR HELP and were dismissed on account of being too mentally ill or god-forbid ""ABUSIVE"" cause they had the sense to mention their suicidal feelings.
The biggest slap of all is the pointless, untruthful platitude they keep repeating like a mantra: "it's not your fault. you couldn't have done anything. the outcome was set in stone. nothing would've ever changed."
Yes, it fucking would've, you psychopathic, selfish, self-absorbed, sadistic pieces of shit. Actions have consequences. Most people aren't born clinically depressed and suicidal. There's not some arbitrary randomly generated number that decides that this person is fated to kill themselves, and you can only slightly lengthen their fated counter. People get sick cause they live in a profoundly sick environment, surrounded by people who don't give a shit. They respond negatively to negative stimulus, and positively to positive stimulus.
Like, fuck, I guess I'm angry cause it hits so close home or something. That even after a horrible tragedy people continue being profoundly narcissistic and selfish, doing anything to get rid of the guilt that is rightfully there, as a natural result of accurately perceiving the reality of cause and effect. Like, I know, I'm mentally ill. I know I have no say in this shit. You now have an excuse to cut all contact and let me die alone. Thank god for you, it wasn't your fault, right? I don't give a shit how much it hurts after the fact, the dead person hurt tenfold times more. Fuck this world.

How did you feel after, not telling anyone? I'm scared of somehow regretting it even though I really don't want this baby. Did anyone ever suspect anything? My mom suspected I was pregnant and up until today I thought it would be pretty easy to hide an abortion from her. Now it seems almost impossible, I want to cry all day and night.
Should I smoke while the abortion is going on? Will that fuck me? I'm terrified I just want the day to come and be done with. It's hard looking at my mom rn I feel like a failure for getting pregnant by him of all people.
My other ex was at least a nice guy, if not a bit of a bitch. This guy is just the stereotype of bad news. And I'm pregnant by him because I'm stupid.

Ah. I live with my mom now so I guess it will just be a conversation we eventually have. I don't think I can keep it from her forever. She's been so helpful on this journey it kinda feels wrong to leave her out of it completely. She's a bit overbearing though so I'll probably wait until the dust settles. I hope she won't hate me for it .. but abortion is the only good option I have. I'm not willing to carry it to full term for adoption.
And yes, I'm definitely going through with it. I want to forget he ever existed. We are not friends and I don't want to have to speak to him ever again if I can avoid it

I really believe the majority of men are pedophilic deep down. They will deny, deny and deny, sometimes project it onto you (YOU'RE THE PEDO!) while doing everything but outright admitting they're attracted to children - and make up lines in the sand to seem "not that bad". If a woman so much as implies this or assumes things to protect her own children, she gets barraged with expletives and called an ugly old hag.

>>63141A bunch of shit I've been dealing with sort of came to a head and I had a big meltdown over it. I've slept on it and I'm feeling a bit better, but it's not going to get better anytime soon, especially with covid.
And sort of related rant, I'm so sick of healthcare (I'm in Burgerstan). Insurance is making me jump through hoops, and my new doctor is a man. I'm hoping for the best since I have had a decent male doctor before, but most I've had were incredibly shitty. My hall of fame of ridiculous shit moid doctors say include: "it can't be that bad" (still have super painful periods where I can't even get out of bed, but whatever you say) and "you're overreacting, it's all in your head and will go away if you ignore it" (guess what, I had to go to the hospital about 6 hours after he said that and had to stay for several days). My absolute "favorite" one is "women can't get autism" when I brought up that I may have it and be masking it but I have multiple symptoms that have been impacting my life in a significant way, plus I do have a family history of it. But no, somehow it's a male-only disorder and any woman who has it has been misdiagnosed according to Dr. Shithead over here. Shit like this makes me not want to bring up anything at all unless it's life-threatening since it's apparently not serious enough even though I'm sure it's contributing to my trainwreck of a life. And don't get me wrong, I've had a few shitty women doctors, but most of the shitty ones were men and were often way worse than them. And I keep trying to rationalize it and give them the benefit of the doubt by thinking maybe they have burnout, or are inexperienced or are just an old fart that can't get with the times. Still doesn't excuse the fact that a lot of doctors are really fucking shitty at their jobs and should have everyone the trouble and picked another career. And insurance is another layer of cancer. I can't get help even though I want and
need it.
It's all fucking exhausting.

>>63172>have multiple symptoms that have been impacting my life in a significant way, plus I do have a family history of it.I'm not a pro or anything, but don't do this, please. I used to do that back when I was living alone and really depressed. I'm not exactly sure, but I ended up getting worse because of reading those things. Look for a psychologist or something, they can probably help you out with it. If you are broke, like really broke, get a book on CBT (check out Judith Beck), it is a therapy that you can kinda do it yourself, considering that you are not too messed up. You seem that you are thinking properly, considering what you just wrote down, and being able to criticize other people instead of "taking all the blame" is a good sign. But I'm not a pro, just saying what I did.
Anonymous 63185
>>63180I should clarify some things, I was (and sort of still am) really heated when I wrote my rant. The autism thing was a couple of years ago, and it was a concern that I had then but after reflecting I don't think I have it, or at least I'm really high functioning or just a extremely socially awkward fuckhead. I do think something is going on though, since I feel like a child even though I'm fucking in my late 20s. I don't think it's only just depression, which I've been diagnosed and am still working through with. I just want to talk to a psych about it and try to get my life in order, but insurance has been being a humongus bitch about it. And even then I'm still hesitant since I haven't had many good experiences with psychiatry, and I'm terrified of bringing something up and then just be treated like a hypochondriac or like I'm drug seeking. As an added bonus my therapist quit over a year ago and haven't been able to find another since then, so right now I feel like I'm treading water and yet I'm still sinking.
And thank you for the recommendation for the CBT book, I think I'll try it out again in the meantime. I did buy one and try it years ago, but I had this weird mental block when it came to actually doing the exercises. Though to be fair I was way more fucked up back then, but I still have a problem with it and I feel like I have to fight with myself to even try to make any headway. Shit sucks.

What does someone have to gain from keeping me added if they have some kind of weird grudge against me? I know they're ignoring me on purpose and I know they are keeping in touch with others but avoiding me, so wtf? Why even bother pretending like the door is open? I've embarrassed myself enough times trying to ask him what was up and can't do that again, so that's out. I'm considering just removing and blocking him but we also share some mutual friends and I just know I'll end up hearing about it at some point. I don't know what else I should do because being treated like this from someone I considered a friend is bullshit and just leaving it as it is has done me no favors mentally, and he refuses to give me a chance to even work out what the problem is, so I have to end it myself.
But still, I just really don't get it. If there were something going on and he was busy that would be one thing but I have seen him go out of his way to ignore me while I know for a fact other friends still keep in touch and have said nothing is wrong or weird.

>>63172Most general practitioners aren't equipped to deal with self-diagnosing autists, and also have to screen for people complaining of extreme pain for an opoid fix. Am I saying that they were right to be dismissive to you? No, but the doctor has a vested interest in not enabling drug-addicted shitheads and has to metagame around them. You can then say
>but why aren't the doctors who are women as badand that's because they have greater understanding of the experiences you're having and can more easily screen you as actual case vs drug addict.
As for the autism specifically, he's a fucking doctor, not a psychologist. If you want a psychologist recommend, just fucking ask for it.
It also doesn't help that American doctors have to further metagame around their patients possibly not being able to afford healthcare, so there's the layer of disgression between "am I going to destroy this person's financial life in pursuit of a treatment that doesn't exist for their condition" which very much does actually happen.

>>63221I'm not the quoted anon, but what I think she is saying is that you shouldn't give people more importance than they actually have in your life. In the sense that those other people might not even know her or notice her, yet she is projecting all that judgement beforehand, and feeling bad about it. It is not even about being more confident, but not letting other people's mere existence hinder your experience as a human being. This is part of what being an autonomous person is about.
And this
>>63223 anon is right. You have to deal with what you got, in the sense of: if things are bad, you shouldn't make them worse. This is why I think religion is somewhat important, because suddenly there is this being who created the entire universe and that cares about you, and somewhat even when things go wrong it is all for the better. I'm not a religious person, but being optimistic about life in general, be it in a philosophical manner or religious, is important to get through hardships. I haven't really finished reading it, but there is this book that I'm reading called "Man's search for Meaning" by Viktor E. Frankl, that correlates to this, it is about a doctor who is sent to a concentration camp in nazi Germany. Not a long book and might be worth a read for that anon who is feeling sad about his current situation.
Not in the sense that "things could be worse, so be grateful for what you have", but more along the lines of finding healthy ways of dealing with your life.

>why the fuck do they go into a career that requires them to CARE ABOUT PEOPLE and just not give a shit.Because it pays well, is socially held in a high place, and a jobs a job. Teachers are a good example of a profession that screens for empathy rather than pay, would you prefer more doctors to be along the lines of how teachers function paywise?

>How is it all in her head when she is, actually, ugly and poor?
Mostly the societal judging part is in her head, literally, as I doubt, but am welcome to be proven wrong, anyone as walked up to her and said "you are ugly, stupid and poor". I highly doubt any neutral member of society has gone out of their way to say these things. School bullies don't count, family doesn't count, she's talking about "society judging harshly" I want a neutral societal observer to tell her she's ugly, stupid and poor before I believe she's actually being judged for it. If this hasn't been done explicitly, she's assuming it implicitly, if she's assuming it implicitly, it's literally in her head.
>Like you said, women judge other women more harshly, so the "be more confident!!1" advice would not work for her.
It actually would, much like how society treats self-confident fat people better than fat people. Society treats self-confident poor people better than self-hating poor people.
>They see "ugly poorfag" before they see confidence or whatever.
Certainly, you are correct. They would also see the self-confidence afterwards and be moved towards that. Personally though I'm a proponent of helping the person you are as opposed to the idealized conception of what a person can be, but more power to her if she wants to autistically fixate on what she should be "ideally" as opposed to what she can actually be ideally. Doesn't hurt anyone, but herself.

>>63320The erectile dysfunction ads are actually aimed at younger men, as it has become an epidemic that young men can't perform in bed these days.

>>63320It's not for old scrotes, all those new ads are targeting the ones in their 20s who already broke their dicks from cooming too much.

I have a test in like, two days and it's REALLY important and I haven't studied at all I'll probably end up crying during it
It's my own fault, though, I could've been studying for months but I'd rather fuck around all day lol

>>63336Start it now, how do you procrastinate? See if you can move away from the places you tend to procrastinate. As in, start doing things you are supposed to to in the kitchen or whatever. Maybe in a library or something.

>I don't want to live if I can't have what I want
Good first step, are you also going to make arrangements to stop wanting things to make your stay more pleasant?
>I don't want to do anything if I can't get recognition for it
Oh gosh this is so relatable. The worst part is this is the first step towards getting recognized, actually doing anything in the first place.

>>63345Do we have to stop wanting things? That sounds so depressing, anon.
> The worst part is this is the first step towards getting recognized, actually doing anything in the first place.Do you think that’s why we end up spiritually and emotionally paralyzed? It’s a vicious loop. But I can’t help but look at more accomplished women and think myself less….how did they do it?

>>63346You don't have to do that, but don't let the existence of other people bring a standstill to your life. It is not a matter of not wanting things, more of having realistic expectations out it. Otherwise you are going to be frustrated, there is nothing wrong with being optimistic, just consider some boundaries for it, don't go crazy like that.

I hate my brothers gf, she’s an annoying fat bitch who makes retarded loud screeching noises while having sex in the next room. I think she’s bpd too, just so messy and gross. Sorry but I fucking hate her.

>>60862I’m not even curious as to what the kink is, but I can’t give any other advice on this without knowing.
But, duh, don’t get with some other guy to scratch your itch. What is it, cuckoldry?
(1 month ago) hmm.
>>61453>>61476Friends are best when they’re not emotional crutches. For whatever reasons you two are having self-worth issues and you need to learn how to love yourselves. You are worthy of their company, I assure you. If one of them gets weird and wants to part ways, you attitude needs to be a nonchalant “who the fuck cares. I can always get some other friends”.
Good luck straightening that out kids
