I don’t feel like I care about the people in my life that care about me.

I know I feel like I should but I just don’t feel that same “care” inside as they feel for me.

My neighbor keeps wanting to walk dogs with me but I like to walk alone so I can listen to my audiobook. Sometimes I feel like he runs out with his dog after seeing me step out my door. We've had some good walks together but dammit I like my peaceful alone time, too. Besides he has a G. Shepherd and my lil Cavaliers cannot keep up. I don't want to hurt his feelings because he's a nice guy who I think gets ignored by his wife.

Wat do, op?

my problem is I want to increase my savings, which is decent now but I've already budget maxxed and don't really have the energy/time to work more. I'm getting a CPAP and hoping fixing mod sleep apnea will help with energy wise but my insurance is slow rolling it

that and my current investments being stagnet has drowned some of my enthusiasm even though I know it's short term

That's a tough one, hate to miss on my first effort but maybe talk to a counselor about it. Maybe you don't like the pressure they put on you, or you just don't have that much in common with them, their interests don't interest you, etc. That's not always a bad thing. Make your own family and your own friends circle.

There's a guy in this thread asking. Marry him.

On a serious note, if you're single and trying to find someone, make yourself as attractive as you can (as a person, not physically) and just put yourself out there.

Don't feel guilty at all. Just walk alone. It's not your job to be his peace, do your own thing. Keep headphones in, if he's too persistent just tell him this is your only alone time. Don't feel guilty at all.

Could you try putting some of your energy into earning more? What industry/career are you in, what if you considered seeking a raise or better yet, another job that earned more? Sounds like you're already doing what you can for saving.

Another thing is investing. Simply putting money into your checking account isn't good, you should invest it, think S&P500, something simple, and utilize tax advantaged accounts like a 401k or a Roth IRA.

How about those options?

Fake a phone call while you are walking before he arrives, and act like you are talking to your sister about something really private or intimate, then act like you are embarassed and be like "im sorry i dont want you to listen to this haha".


Repeat the same stuff 10x if necessary until he gets the idea.



Sorry to hijack thread OP, i do have my own situations that i could listen to some advice for but not really want to put them in the open
"The flowers bloom, then wither... The stars shine and one day become extinct. This earth, the sun, the galaxies and even the big universe, someday will be destroyed. Compared with that, the human life is only a blink, just a little time. In that short time - people are born, laugh, cry, fight, are injured, feel joy, sadness, hate someone, love someone. All in just a moment. And then, are embraced by the eternal sleep called death."

I'm in my 30s, got 3 kids, recently divorced.
I'm afraid of not being able to meet a "serious" girl anymore.
I met and banged anything I could in the last weeks, it was fun but I feel very empty inside my heart.
I feel like ****.

Hiring standards lowered by so much I deal with 21-24 year olds who this is their first real job.

I would watch them fck up, but to let them fail means more work for me, and people might get hurt which isn't what I want.

I figured you were. Are you just feeling bored in life, like not feeling much in general? Could need a lifestyle change. If your friends aren't interesting you a ton maybe you've grown and want new friends. Family is family, you don't always like them a ton. That's a tougher one though, talk to a counselor see what they say. I would.

Plenty of serious people out there. You might have to meet a woman in a similar situation, but I promise they're out there. Try dating apps, a few, and just present yourself as a serious person, mention your kids, you'll eventually find someone serious.

Can you simply not hire the ones who don't seem like good candidates?

If you aren't attracting good enough candidates, the company probably needs to raise the income and find better ways to get more resumes.

Why not? Try to improve your life. Maybe your physical fitness, join a place like Reddit and ask for advice on how to style yourself better. Better haircut, cleaner, better shaving/beard, better clothes. Reddit has a sub called r/lookyourbest, go ask. Also try to better your career, have something going for yourself. If you do those things, you'll eventually find interest.

I'm not sure you can do that, but, you could go Google it, or ask ChatGPT, ChatGPT would likely give you a good answer.

edit: I'll do it for you. Here's what it says.


It's important to note that attempting to maintain residency in one state for specific benefits while living in another state can be legally problematic. Each state has its own criteria for establishing residency, and there can be legal and financial consequences for misrepresenting your residency status.

If someone is genuinely interested in maintaining Wyoming residency for hunting purposes while living in Florida, they should consider the following:

Primary Residence:Wyoming may consider factors such as where you spend the majority of your time, where your primary home is, and where you return to after being away.

Driver's License and Vehicle Registration:If you have a Wyoming driver's license, you should be aware that obtaining a Florida driver's license might require you to give up your Wyoming license. Similarly, registering a vehicle in Florida might affect your Wyoming vehicle registration.

Voter Registration:If you're registered to vote in Wyoming, registering to vote in Florida could terminate your Wyoming voter registration.

Tax Implications:There are tax implications to consider when claiming residency in a particular state. Florida doesn't have a state income tax, but Wyoming doesn't either. However, there might be other tax considerations.

Hunting Licenses:Wyoming has specific requirements for obtaining resident hunting licenses. They might look at factors such as how long you've lived in the state, whether you have a Wyoming driver's license, and where you pay taxes.

Consult with a Lawyer:
If someone is serious about trying to maintain dual residency or wants to understand the implications of doing so, they should consult with a lawyer who is familiar with residency laws in both Wyoming and Florida.

In general, it's essential to be transparent and honest about your residency status. Misrepresenting your residency can lead to legal consequences, including fines and the potential loss of hunting privileges.

The girl I'm dating has ferocious breathe sometimes. It's like an instant turnoff. I have to tell her (uncomfortably) and she will get embarrassed then defensive, but ultimately brush her teeth to address the smell. She grew up in a broken home, with an abusive mother who neglected her so it's not really her fault. I took her to the dentist, and she hadn't been to one in 7 years. Miraculously she didn't have cavities. I literally taught her how to use floss.

She's a nice girl. A good girl. But just had a rough upbringing. Regardless, the dental hygiene issue is getting in the way of my attraction towards her. Destroying intimate moments and ruining my sex drive, in a way.

Should I break up with her? How do I tell her she either brushes twice/day, flosses, uses mouthwash, etc ..or I'm going to stop seeing her? I don't want to traumatize the girl and she's been through enough already. All other physical hygiene is on point with her, it's just the mouth/breath that's a problem.

I like developing properties but the most profitable projects are medium-sized luxury multi-units in a contemporary style. Have to think carefully about what finishes and features people will pay for, not just what I think is cool.

Kind of soulless but it’s what sells

I would like to do a development of something out of the box on an insane scale, like a landmark, but not sure if the financial return will be there

What should I do

issues are relative. think about it.

some (maybe most) miscers live with unprecedented comfort & opportunity in the richest nation on the planet (i think).

300yrs ago you had to go hunt your own food, build your own cabin and prolly die at 45 cuz of no medical care. anyone in the west who cant figure out they have it spectacular compared to the past & with the rest of the world is coddled.

i got problems but whats worse, having these "problems" or living in some 3rd world chithole having to fight off tiger's in the middle of the night or sum chit.

only legit problem i feel bad for miscers over is having like a 2.5 inch peen or being 5ft8 or shorter. then yea, chit sucks i bet.

A long term partner will ultimately like you for your personality, but that doesn't mean you don't have to be able to provide some other types of value. You should aim to have a job that can provide for you, and display some type of ambition for more. That will help. It's totally natural for a woman to want those things in a partner, and good that they do. You'll want some behaviors out of a partner too.

I'd probably tell her. She deserves to be told and deserves to have a chance, or a few chances to change her lifestyle if she wants the relationship.

She could also have tonsil stones, which smell, but are natural and it's not all about brushing. The only way to solve that is either she buys a pick ($10 on amazon) and fishes them out once a week or so, or pay to have tonsils removed which is incredibly painful as an adult for a good week, and probably also a few thousand dollars. Start with brushing, and if that doesn't fix it, have her look at her tonsils in the back of her throat for stones.
