  • Don't know how to break up with my girlfriend. Can someone advise?

    My girlfriend (I will call her "Jill" in this post) and I have been dating for about 6 months. We were friends beforehand, but after a long chase on Jill's part I began to develop feelings for her so we began to go out.

    Now, because of how actually being in a relationship with Jill was, the feelings I had have faded. I'm not coming on here to vent so I'm not going to name too many of the things she does that gets to me, but the one that was the big "deal breaker" is how she suddenly becomes a whole lot more easily upset in public places. Jill will start crying over anything, and I began to feel like it is to cause a scene to create attention from the people. Jill knows I never handle attention well even if it is positive attention. I could be wrong because she is a bit unstable all the time, so it can be hard to tell. If it is true then that is emotionally abusive because she is playing on my social anxiety. I'm usually the guy that gets other guys in trouble with their girlfriend because I treat mine so well.

    Now to the break up: the part I need advice on. Jill has been known to be self destructive when she gets upset and has been known to turn shared friends against people. I feel like I'm wasting my time and her time by delaying this breakup. My Birthday is coming up soon and I'd like to get this over with before then even if that means most of my friends wont be talking to me anymore, because I don't want to get a gift from her and end up breaking up with her. That would just be a jerk move. Is there anything I can do to help prevent her from hurting herself?

    Too long?

    My girlfriend, who creates drama to get her way, is self destructive when upset. I need to know a good way to break it off without giving her much grief.

  • Pokemon White exp. share AR code, does it exist?

    I seemed to have misplaced one of my exp. shares in pokemon white. I'm trying to not cheat, or at least greatly limit cheating, but I have no idea what happened to my 2nd experience share. I might have accidentally tapped "trash" or maybe I forgot to take it off when I traded. Regardless of what happened it is missing.

    In case you were wondering why I need another one so bad, it is for EV training and it would greatly shorten the time it takes.

    If it exists, what is the code?

  • How do I get a Windows 7 installation disc when the laptop did not come with one?

    It is for a friends computer. He has a product key already, but the laptop didn't come with a Windows 7 installation disc. This means if he gets a virus he can't format. So how can we get a disc without just buying the OS again?

  • It has been nearly 4 days since my liver biopsy. Is normal to still be in pain?

    I still get moments of intense pain. They aren't as bad as the first day, but still pretty intense. During these moments that have a widely varying time it can hurt to breath too deeply or let out too much breath. Is this normal to still be in this much pain? It isnt just a little soreness.

  • When trading pokemon does the happiness reset?

    Does the happiness reset when trading pokemon between the current gen Pokemon games? I want to make sure to keep my EV stat bonuses.

    What I'm trying to do is send them to Platinum from Soul Silver to grind a bit faster than I can in Soul Silver since I just got to Kanto where wild Pokemon are really low leveled.

  • Pokemon related: what moves can be used while asleep?

    I know of Snore and Sleep Talk

    The reason I'm asking is because I'm trying to figure out what to do with my Snorlax. Right now he has Rest, Yawn, Belly Drum, and Snore. Problem is I really like Yawn, Belly Drum, and Rest but in order to maximize the usefulness of rest I need abilities that can be used while asleep. Snore is pretty weak, but if I do sleep talk I need to delete one of my other three.

  • Is there a way to adjust my laptop's fan speed?

    My laptop has overheated a few times while I was playing a game. Is there a way I can increase my fan speed so it pulls out more heat?

    Yes I make sure the fan isn't covered and is able to pull air out, so that isn't the problem.

  • Why do women play with our emotions?

    This is half a vent and half an actual question.

    After going out with my girlfriend for 2 years. She decides she wants to break up. Not only does she say that she wants to break up but she tries to tell me that she still loves me. Then she goes onto say that she enjoyed the sex >.>

    I, to my own surprise, kept calm while she was saying this crap, but I couldn't help but wonder "why is she playing with my emotions like they are on puppet strings?" I had a feeling it was going to happen because of a recent change of attitude towards me, but that change was sudden.

  • What MMORPG do you play and what top 3 things set it apart from the others?

    If you currently play more than one list them, but if not don't bother with every MMO you've played in the past. If i did that I'd end up with a really long list XD

    For example:

    I currently play FFXI the three things thats sets this apart form others is

    1. the community. the best I have experienced online, and generally has a higher level of maturity and willingness to help others than those in other MMORPGs i have played.

    2. Ability to switch jobs (aka: classes) between the 21 offered and subjob (aka: subclass). Like I play a paladin subbing warrior in parties and paladin subbing ninja when i solo.

    3.Amount of content. This game has a ridiculous about of content. The game has several storylines to follow and always has something out there worth obtaining. For example my friend who has been playing for a lot longer than I have has more than a year of playtime on the game and still finds new things to do. I personally won't go that far but you get the idea I hope >.>

    If you have yet to beat beaten, plan to play, or in anyway interact with the game Infamous DO NOT read ahead!

    Is there a way you can save BOTH the Doctors and Trish from Kessler? Like do you have to be super fast or does it just cut to the cut-scene and you are stuck with one decision. Cuz following the good path just seriously pissed me off!

  • What's wrong with me if I just absolutely hate public places?

    I for some reason hate going to public places. It's beyond normal "shyness" and more like stressed. I avoid the glance of just about anyone I don't know. I will even avoid making phone calls I know i have to make because I can't stand talking to someone. I have been like this ever since about the time I was in middle school (I'm 21 next week). I can remember several times not going to the movies with my family simply because I didn't want to be there. I'd play it off as if I wasn't interested in the movie.

    Its not nearly bad at work, but its still there. When I'm with friends I'm still stressed but don't show it.

    I tried telling my girlfriend but she didn't care to hear it. Its the only time she's ever not cared to hear what I have to say in the near 2 years we have been going out.

  • Why is it considered "Gay" when a guy actually loves a girl?

    When I express how much I love my GF I've often heard "dude, you're a fag"

    Seriously is it that weird I'm dating to find someone to spend the rest of my life with and not just the night?

    And if you are considering saying something like that... reflect on what I said when you are dieing alone or getting your 4th divorce with a son out there who doesn't know your name.

  • How can I be sure that I have a social disorder?

    While looking up stuff on psychology and sociology, because its something I may pursue as a career, I came to a realization (ironically) that I may have a social disorder.

    I frequently have a paranoia about how I am judged by others, and I often reflect negatively on myself with nearly any interaction with others, be it time with friends or just a conversation on the phone. I put off or avoid phone calls, grocery shopping, going out to restaurants, and even going to the doctor. Why I hate having to make calls! I don't truly understand, I just feel uncomfortable when talking to people over the phone.

    Rarely do i experience panic attacks but I have a few times.

    How I react being with friends depends really on what it is we're doing. If we're playing video games I have little to no problems. If we are going out somewhere I usually avoid attention and conversation.

    I don't experience this when I'm playing an online game or when I'm with or talking to only my girlfriend. With online games I don't know if its because I'm behind a different face or because I'm confident in my performance.

    What I found that stood out for me was Social Anxiety, I've known what it was but rarely considered if I had the disorder. Usually dismissing the possibility because how many people say they have disorders when they don't. I just don't want to grouped with them. After seeing the symptoms though, I looked into it more and found on wikipedia that "...American children appear more likely to develop social anxiety disorder if their parents emphasize the importance of other's opinions and use shame as a disciplinary strategy." The part that matches me best is the shame as discipline.

    Problem is I don't know if I'm just shy or I truly have Social Anxiety.

  • When was the last time you played a truely great game?

    And I mean TRUELY great. Like it blew you away and it will forever leave an imprint of itself on your memory increasing your standards. Before you answer think for a moment and make sure your standards haven't just diminished because it has been a while since a game like that.

    I got this thought when I replayed FFVII on my PSP which made me realize just how true that VGcats comic was! XD
