Hey 4chan! recently i've decided to start working during college. My job is to help mainly old people install and set up a mobile app with medical records and stuff. I sit at a desk with a girl, that talks a lot. Like she won't stop talking. I have anxiety answering to her questions or talking to her, because people in the lobby are watching us lol. So i'm answering in like a very monotone voice and quietly. What should i do? Also i'm not very good with women. so yeah i don't know i guess i'm here for advice. Also i forgot her name.

How do I make friends while having no prior relationships whatsoever?
Loneliness hasn't been too good for my sanity and I realise once my parents die (the only deep relationships I ever truly had) I'm completely alone, and I'd rather not be.

I realized around two years ago that one of the only ways to achieve success in life is through having connections. Success largely depends on running into certain people. I unfortunately realized this too late. Since then, I am now only befriending people in the hopes that they would give me something in return (ie jobs, clout, academia, etc). There are people who I hang out with, and buy drinks and gifts for just because I think they are useful to have as friends. I even mark down their birthdays to appear like a good friend who cares about them. I fucking hate living like this and the dishonesty eats me up inside, but it feels like my choices are slim. The idea that you can just apply to a cushy job, or start a cool promising project on your own is a delusion. You need to meet people who already have something going on, and then you need to worm your way into their lives. I also try to never make any of these friends meet each other. College/uni is a great place to enroll in just for this purpose. I am sure some of my fellow zoomers here can relate to this post. Any thoughts?

It's been half a year since I finished conscript service in my country. Needless to say, it sucked. I was constantly drenched from sweat, rain or snow, tired from constantly having to do this-or-that with no rest, being sleep deprived or sick for weeks at a time. Being yelled at, yelling at others. But, oh, I miss it. The cameraderie and having a job that people appreciated me for.
I miss it. I miss it all.
For my whole life, I've fantasized of fighting in war. My country is at peace. I can't kill people in sacred war here. I now work a meaningless wagie job but I keep thinking about killing.
Should I go to Ukraine? The only things tying me to my current life are my girlfriend and family. But... honestly... eh.

There's this new trend on X to just do random shit you are dared to by accounts like dare market, they pay you enough to feed your village if you're third worlder...and enough to get back on feet if you're broke af.

I never went to college. Did I miss out?

I'm an old ugly short bald lower middle class male and my ex is starting to make the same money as me and is like 10 years younger. Soon she will probably make more than me for the rest of my life. Ultimately to be lovable you have to be either cute or admirable. I am neither. Should I just end my life? All I do is prepare for retirement. I feel like not existing would be easier and less depressing/stressing.

im mixed race/ethnicity and its pretty lonely just wondering if anyone else here is mixed and has any advice. i dont look like ANY race and its genuinely suicide inducing not fitting in anywhere i go. i guess i get mistaken for being some sort of south american pretty often which would be cool if i was actaully south american or latina but im not so its just sad. i dont look like either of my parents or their ethnic groups and i feel like i look out of place everywhere i am. im not ashamed of my mix its just that i feel so lonely. ive never met anyone with the same looks as me so i cant relate to anyone in that sense. this probably sounds like a non issue to anyone that isnt mixed but yeah if anyone has any advice on how to be okay with not fitting in with any ethnic group/race/nationality let me know.

Is it sensible to pick up a trade in your late 20s, I've had a fascination with the construction field for a while and like the satisfaction of piecing things together.
At the same time I recognise I'm not really young anymore. My family is heavily advising me not to do it since they're saying a young guys game and my body will be finished by 40 and that I'll be delaying my life until I finish.

I'm looking at becoming a sparkie specifically.
