You know what, I like NJ god dammit and you bloody do too
But I won't like not living with Beasto
Make him move in with you.
I'm moving in with my mother. I won't make nearly enough to pay for an apartment. And if Beasto moves in with my and my mother, we're definitely splitting up.
He's got to basically house sit the Astoria pied a terre for my relaxation on the weekends
So the answer is that your mother has to go.
no she needs to pay for the house dammit pay attention zeph
I would honestly like to prolong that hesitation and intimacy right before the kiss, that's what I really want from a quickly-becoming-real blindfolded chat makeout session
Just that moment of near-connection...
carbonite freeze me as I am about to kiss a beautiful puppy, for ever
To be suspended at the crest of the wave of anticipation the moment before it breaks ... forever ....
The actual worst
The anticipation so completely surpasses the event though...
I wonder if disliking anticipation is a characteristic of having a lifelong mood disorder like depression or anxiety.
Because what I anticipate is always far worse than reality.
Sometimes I don't even anticipate a catastrophe! I just anticipate that the event will be disappointing. Then when it's actually kinda okay then I feel better.
I hadn't thought of that. That's the side of things I would have thought I was on if I were asked, but having not viewed things in that context I'm not sure.
every time everyone mentions IT I think for a second they're talking about IT as in the field of work and I'm like "What the fuck is an IT clown? Someone who calls us to get instructions on how to install printer drives because they don't know how to google?"

i dislike jokes about cultural appropriation here since this board seems incapable of grasping or discussing it earnestly
This board is terrible at most things, just like it is great at most things
I've appreciated your explanations of the subject in the past. If you come across any good articles on the subject feel free to pm or tag me, as i still dont have the best understanding
Thank you! Will do, though most of what I have back pocket is from books and not easily linkable articles unfortunately.
lol books what is this the 1800s
i maintain that we have yet to produce a technology as elastic and durable as the book
I dont hate my job so much as i hate 35% of what they make me do and find 90% of it not at all challenging is there a club for that
Yes it's called Contact a Recruiter
for real tho you're in a cul-de-sac from what I hear
For most people the job is whatever, but it's the people you work with that make a job tolerable vs intolerable. If you move to some amazing new creative endeavor that would be great but there's always the possibility that the new people are fucking miserable shit birds who make every day a hellscape.
Yeah, I don't find my current job challenging, and that sort of sucks. But in some ways, it's exactly what I want... I've had challenging before, and it's horrible. I'm getting paid to do un-challenging work, and I'm surrounded by great people who are nice and not toxic, so I consider this a win. I never feel like management is breathing down my neck or that I'm competing in some god-forsaken arbitrary metric with my coworkers.
There is some benefit of age in this, as I feel like I've accomplished all of the things that I've wanted to do in my youth. So I don't feel any compelling ambition to make something of my life. The wanderlust isn't there anymore. I'm content to just plug away at a job, as long as I get paid. I find my happiness outside of my career.

It has taken a lot of effort to not always anticipate catastrophe. I think Querry's been very helpful in this regard (I feel very secure with her, which is new).

Truly the most existential of all horrors.

I went from full throttle to polite grandma as far as challenge and I am young enough where I want more difficult work but old enough to deny being shit on

DISGRACED Cheshire East councillor Brian Silvester has been spared jail but must pay almost £70,000 after admitting putting vulnerable lives at risk at his rented property in Crewe.
Elki because of course this cunt is a slumlord.
I find it telling that he's displaying the flag on a pair of rubbish bins.

JacobkoshGamble a stamp.I can show you how to be a real man!Moderatormod
Yesterday a therapist suggested that I could try going to a men's divorce support group
"I, uh... look I'm sorry but why would that even be gendered? That seems kinda dumb."
"Ah! Well. Lots of people who are getting divorced, they often become unreasonably angry when they interact with someone the same gender as their ex-spouse. So gender segregation is usually the least risky way to organize a support group."
So like that group's gotta be like an MRA soft pitch right?
Why is there an immediate assumption that a men's support group is negative simply because it's a men's support group?
The lack of good support groups for men and the previlence of bad support groups for men are directly related.
It is simultaneously true that men in particular need more access to focused quality social and psychological care and that most groups that focus on men exclusively are garbage and reinforce self destructive behaviors.
Here is an actual useful post. I strongly encourage everyone to study it closely and identify the salient features that make it different from the unhelpful contributions above it.

I'd bet it's associated.
For me, it's common for me to anticipate that either:
1) The thing I'm anticipating isn't going to happen at all. This happens a lot when traveling. Once I'm in the airplane seat and in the air, I relax. Beforehand, I'm worried that I'm going to get held up at TSA and miss my flight, or there will be some dumb mechanical problem with the plane and the flight will get canceled.
I don't worry that the plane will crash or anything like that. Just that I'll end up sitting in an airport terminal playing a game on my phone.
2) The thing I'm anticipating won't be fun. This happens a lot when dating and going to parties. I don't want to go because it's going to be stupid and I'm not going to connect with anybody and I'd just have a better time at home listening to Swans playing video games.
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.
