also
>cold weather cozy coffeshop feels

>>9072926
219. I know that feel man.

When ur walking past a girl with her boyfriend and she gives you that stare as you walk past while her bf is none the wiser.

good feel

>TFW girls compliment you on clothing choice
>but then a guy compliments you and it's literally the best feeling ever because you earned their admiration

I feel super awkward but I just say thank you.

>hanging out with a friend and his sister
>just got hair cut (buzzed short on sides and back, tall on top

>tfw you give the other well dressed guy that sup head nod
>tfw a girl with her boyfriend peeps ur fit

>>9072374
go on asos and look for scarves and snoods

>>9073122
Is the "sup head nod" a nod up or down?

>>9072539
Sorry to break it anon, but you aren't standing out. You're blending in.

this story is pretty stupid
>got a haircut about a month ago, it's a yung leo with an undercut more or less
>went to bar with a friend before we went clubbing with some other friends
>she said:"hey cool you got your hair cut, your sides are like almost shaved...

... i don't think i like it"
>"ok"
>a few hours later in the club, pretty faded at this point, talked with some qts, was p cool, good vibes all around
>this dude randomly comes up to me and tells me:"yo man you have the coolest hair ever seriously!" etc, being really nice to me and shit
>i remember saying "thanks man!" a lot and i was really happy

there was also this girl at some other party and she kept complimenting my fit and that was p cool i guess.

other postive feels: i've seen like 3 really really good concerts the past 2 months and i've been in a really good mood lately :)

>it's suddenly cold as fuck where I live
>I can now justify wearing a scarf around my neck in such a way that it also covers my face
>feel much less insecure as I walk around campus cause people won't recognize me if they think I look stupid
Le epic social anxiety meme :)

>>9073160
that's pretty cool but
>tfw you will never be young leo :(

what concerts?

>>9073160
what concerts? :)

>>9073184
>tfw you will never be young leo :(
definite bummer :(

concerts were: menzingers with andrew jackson jihad & smith street band (with 2 other bands i didnt really care that much for),
balance and composure with seahaven & moose blood,
and joyce manor with great cynics & cheap girls

>>9073208
I don't know any of those bands. How do I cop a taste in music?

>>9072541
sounds like your gay

definitely don't go go /mu/, they just circlejerk like 5 different bands constantly
do you have a last.fm? you could get a lot out of starting there and just checking out different recommended artists. what do you like?

>catch girl mirin
>ignore her and don't acknowledge her staring at all
>she comes over and starts a conversation

>>9073215
fucking around a lot i guess. i genuinely don't remember how i got past entry level stuff like weezer (for example). tumblr definitely helps me with discovering cool shit from time to time. last.fm helps you find similar bands to the ones you like, and i think (a very small minority on) ultimate-guitar helped to check out new stuff. /mu/ is cool too from time to time.

really you just kinda have to waste a lot of time listening to stuff i guess.

sorry i cant help you bruh :(

jokes on her because im telepathic and know she thinks im an ugly creep and is staring at me like a monkey in the zoo

Got a job at a really good clothing store that I really like and I can't wait to cop all these Rogue Territory and Filson pieces at cost. Also, I'm about to up my shower and candle game cause we have all this Malin+Goetz.

It's helping me get out of my recent depression which is good.

Posted this once before but whatever

>see two girls crossing the street
>make eye contact with them but it's just a passing glance

I had to get to work so I was in a rush but if something like that happens again, what do I do?

>>9072302
>>9072382
yeah this conversation makes no sense

>>9072302

>qt guy with rainbow bracelet compliments your gloverall coat
>too autistic to really respond and just mutter something i dont remember and then walk away

>>9073321
They were highschool for sure. Probably 16 I'd say. I'm 18 right now so its not weird I think

>>9073215
>>9073239
I know what you're talking about but I like going to /mu/ for the chart threads so I can cop recs from people who like the same stuff as I do. You just gotta ignore the shitposting

>>9073283
how much past retail experience did you have? and was it just a matter of asking for openings and handing them your resume?

I'll post one from 4 years ago since I'm apparently too unapproachable for compliments these days

>high school ends
>get on bus to go the fuck home
>kids on bus staring as I walk through
>good or bad?
>"anon you always have the best outfits"
>"yeah we talk about your clothes all the time, sorry is that's creepy heheh"
>confirmed good

>>9073223
I had a thought: nodding your head up exposes the neck, and you'd only make yourself vulnerable around people you trust (friends). And nodding the head down and looking at the ground is a sign of submission, at least subconsciously.

>>9073239
>>9073251
>>9073340
I like songs with clever lyrics that rhyme. I dislike repetitive songs. I cannot name any particular artists or songs, but I have enjoyed some pop and rap songs which have meaningful lines. I've listened to a few dubstep playlists, and I like the ones that aren't slow, don't have a gay female voice mixed in, and do have a lot of that wuwuwuwu and screeching stuff. Like I said, I have no taste in music.

I have Spotify on my iPad; is that similar to last.fm?

>>9073386
I've worked for Barneys New York(the one that was in Dallas) and Rag&Bone. I've done all sorts of other stuff in the industry too like styling and merchandising. My friend told me they were hiring and I called and sent them my resume and I had the gig three days later. Stores not open yet though, I'm helping them get all their stock put up and tagged before we open next week.

>>9073450
hmmm maybe you should go to /mu/. but if you do just stick to sharethreads and download stuff that has tags that appeal to you. be very careful not to get sucked into the extremely toxic attitudes of that board

last.fm is like a social media site for music. it tracks what you listen to and recommends stuff based on that. it's cool.

>>9073496
Fair enough. Any tips for someone wanting to begin working at clothing stores but with little to no experience?

>youre like the mischievous one of the group

idk how to feel

>>9073515
I don't think any board could be more self-deprecating and insecure than /fa/, but I could be wrong.

I'll sign up for last.fm and give it a shot.

Is Taylor Swift effay by the way? I used to have a lot of songs from her, and Linkin Park when I was in middle school. She looks kinda funny though.

>>9073547
100% she wants the nut sack

GF graduated college yesterday and walked by Footlocker to check if they had her size in Air Force 1 Mids youth model (she's been wanting them for a while but always sold out). They had one pair in her size and they were having an unadvertised 25% off store-side sale. Was a nice surprise/feeling.

>>9073563

Meh, I'm not the one wearing them. Whatever makes her happy.

>>9072435

>nicotine kicks in

How sad is your life?

>>9073602
You're a good guy anon.

I think this board is getting to me. I judge people based on their choice of clothing. I shouldn't do this.

>>9073601
fucking lmao

>>9073526
Depends on where you live and what you want out of it. I'd say see if there's a Neimans in your town, try there. Or, go to places you like and ask to talk to a manager and tell him about your brand knowledge and how much you actually know and care about the product. If you can't sell yourself you can't sell clothes.

>>9073531
what happened prior to this last year?

>>9073548
/mu/ actually likes taylor swift

i think she is /fa/ sometimes, like when she had straight hair that one time and this heroin-chic cover she did

>>9072320
she's baking her hair into the pie she's making for op as we speak

>>9072926

>>9073585

>>9073208

>moose blood

They did a split with another band I really like Departures, how were they I'd love to see them but I'm stuck in portland.

>>9073698
Lol who would go? I know a bunch of dallas dudes who are super fashionable, though. None of them browse /fa/ though. What part of town do you live in? I'm off lower greenville.

>>9073663
I haven't listened to her new album yet, so I will probably do that soon. I hope the lyrics rhyme.

I think she's ugly in the photos where she isn't airbrushed, but in a pretty way if you know what I mean.

>>9073660
last year i kinda disappeared never talked to anyone deleted all social media lost a lot of weight and started dressing way better.
her compliment hit home with me because she is the type of person who would never admit anything like that

P. good taste. Strangely enough my favorite Park Chan-Wook film is "I am a Cyborg, but that's OK".

>>9073845
Sounds like you had a overall pleasant interaction with someone you may or may not see again in the future.

People thinking you're gay stories? I'll start

>In a club, randomly hit it off with some girl
>She's okay I guess, better than nothing
>Dancing around with her and whatevs
>Things seem to be heating up
>She kind of scans me and asks if I'm gay
>"What? no"
>Continue on, I didn't really mind much
>"You sure you're not gay?"
>"No, stop asking"
> Ended up making out with her and fooling around literally to shut her up

It was weird, like she tricked me into it by questioning my sexuality

>>9073888
I've gotta try this sometime lol

>>9073450
I've always thought it as up for acknowledgement, down for respect

>we go out for coffee the next day and end up chatting for a long time

genuinely the first time in a long while i've really lusted tbh. i catch girls mirin often, but mostly basic bitches. don't know what next move is, but we'll see

when girls look at you, that's because youre staring at them. you cannot know they are looking at you without yourself constantly doing the same thing. girls arent hungry for cock the way you're desperate to have sex, theyre just trying to go about their lives

>>9075227

this isn't true. why would girls differ from guys in this aspect?

>>9075234
because guys are thirsty as fuck. source: this thread. girls dont talk like this. hear so many horror stories about thirsty guys creeping on my gf/creeping on friends who are girls and it all sounds like the shit im seeing in this thread

>>9075200

I don't know how to feel about this.

why are most of the feels in this thread about girls noticing you are y'all really that desperate

thirsty randos

> Go to party city
> Browsing face paints
> An employee taps on my shoulder and hands me a folded piece of paper
> A girl gave it to him and asked him to give me her number
> Checkout without a word

My relationship goals are a fucking wreck anyway. I have one younger girl who connects well emotionally and wants to be with me and one insanely attractive girl my age that wants to be together as well. What do you do when two brilliant, sexy women want the dick?

>one day youll close your eyes and wont ever have to open them again

>>9075778
I imagine it's sort of like a really dream.

>>9075778
this feel

blurt stuff out to all girls that do this to you.
i thought i'd be able to when a really good one finally started noticing me, but since i had 0 practice i couldnt do it

Being dead is like sleeping forever and dreaming? No. Your brain activity stops. You won't experience any of it. It's just eternal blackness.

You didn't feel anything before you were born. It's non-existence. It's nothingness. Don't turn this into a useless debate. You know what I meant.

I'm not the guy you replied to, but I can answer for him. If you're travelling on a low budget, you can stay in hostels / motels intended for backpackers. They're usually located downtown, so you will be able to reach tourist destinations etc. easily.

Food is cheap in other countries. A lot cheaper, and a lot less processed too.

You don't need to know the language. Everybody speaks English. If you're visiting a village or hiking a mountain or something, join a tour and there will be a tour guide.

How do you manage? Well, if you want to travel, you just do it. Just don't have a mental breakdown and appreciate what the world has to offer and you'll be okay.
