  1. I assume he is not in trouble because he is the richest person on the planet. I believe everyone else would be in great trouble saying truths like these publicly.
  2. The bartender from Barcelona started replying in one word since I told her I won't be able to go to Ibiza. My first instinct when she cancelled the date last minute was correct. She is flaky and she would only have seen me when it would be convenient for her even if I were in Barcelona. First instincts are always right (unfortunately). I deleted her from Whatsapp as I don't like wasting time on nonsense and I know I would start engaging in a conversation again if she pinged me as I fancied her. I get irritated when someone is playing with me. She is on a different wavelength anyway. She wants to work in Ibiza. Working as a bartender in Ibiza is a whole different path. Ain't for me.
  3. There is a guy we were at the uni together. He is one year older(33). We were not close but we used to help each other comparing notes etc. We commiserated over not liking computer science and we should have studied something else. He wanted to study marketing which makes sense given that he was an extreme extrovert, a party animal and a hustler. Eventually he put in the work and finished the uni with a lot of delay. He managed to find a job in IT. Colleagues used to joke around that he is the person for all the jobs, from a coder to an AI specialist to a HR specialist to a sales specialist etc etc. He was known that he is a hustler and he didn't actually do something hands-on despite having a hands-on position lol. He quickly jumped from a coding role to a more managerial role until he found a job as an account manager(sales person in IT) at a small company here in Athens. He changed many companies and he did a lot of public speaking events. He is a natural hustler so I assume he enjoyed all these things. Nobody I knew took him very seriously. He was/is ambitious however. He got an online master's degree from the University of Bath in England (although the first time he visited England was only for the graduation ceremony which I find it funny) whilst working. Very recently he found a job as an account manager at the European Commission in Belgium. I reckon he gets 100K+. Now, although money is pretty good, it's not about money, it's the potential you have on this position. An account manager for the European Commission is a key position. Huge customers, lot's of money, lot's of million dollar deals (and the under the table deals as well), influence and power. That was quite a jump from his previous job. People joked about him, now he is joking about them. Never underestimate ambitious people. Even without a talent ambition alone is enough to go very far. He was from the country side without anyone to help him so I am pretty sure he is not the type to stop there and just enjoy his money. I wouldn't be surprised if 20 years from now he is a prominent member of the European Commission with a lot of influence.
  4. There is a reason for everything. Bums are great motivator for preserving the human race. Truth be told. It seems people pay for whatever nonsense on only-fans. If guys would pay to see my hairy leg then I am all for it lol. Demand and supply, basic economic principles haha If you organize a killing kittens party count me in lol
  5. Yes I've consider it if AI takes my job lol. Guys pay better so I don't mind hahaha Meh, I have put a couple of kg with being sick 3 weeks now. No six pack, only one pack haha
  6. This is why guys say a girl has a bright future ahead when she has a nice heinie
  7. Old school gangsta 😎 Stephen King. I expected it lol Where was it? HAHAHAHAHA I am sure you know your strength is your midsection! One like because we are ENA friends so many years and one because I click like when I see a hot chick.
  8. This old Eminem video came up on Youtube, I remember the song, I used to listen to it at early-mid 2000s I didn't know Dido was British. What a voice. Got to give it to the British when it comes to female singers. Plenty (even not well-known) female British singers have amazing voices. Angel's voice.
  9. This cough has been so freakin persistent. I went to a private doctor, he gave me antibiotics and a list of drugs that I couldn't really understand the purpose. I don't understand why he gave me so many drugs, maybe he gets commission, who knows...But nothing worked. The cough was getting worse and worse. He said it was bronchitis... Now to the funny part. My parents came to visit me and my mother started coughing as well. She took aspirin and she got better immediately. She said I should give it a go. I did. And instantly I felt better. That was 2 days ago. I am so much better. What antibiotics and all the other drugs couldn't do, aspirin did. Aspirin, the cheapest drug on earth. Go figure... I went to the hospital at the emergencies today because I wanted to double check (and because I am flying next week). They did all the checks. I did have an upper respiratory infection, not bronchitis which is a lower respiratory infection. Plus, the doctors said I didn't need to take antibiotics at all and I shouldn't take anything, it just takes a lot of time to pass. How can you trust private doctors? They are worse than wall streets guys. Jeez. A simple f*cking aspirin would do. I took 6 drugs without any freakin reason.
  10. We still keep exchanging voice messages with the Tinder chick. I am not sure if she is playing hard to get or she is not interested enough. Both probably. I don't mind playing along as I don't care anyway. Let's see who is going to "finish" it first hahaha I do text a lot with the bartender from Barcelona these days. She is going to Ibiza next month and she asked me to join. I was like yes yes yes I am coming. Unfortunately I won't have annual leave after the US trip and there are no direct flights from Athens to Ibiza. I would have to go first to Barcelona and then fly to Ibiza which is not worth it only for a weekend. It would be too expensive and I won't have enough time. I do plan however to visit Barcelona again in May/June. She sent me a very short video (nothing naughty or anything), and damn, I love her smile and voice. This is the benefit of meeting people in real life, you know you like what you see from the beginning.
  11. This cough keeps persisting and actually getting nastier. I went to the doctor yesterday and he gave me antibiotics as I have bronchitis. Sh*t! Always happens the worst time, I have the big presentation next week. Jeez. Give me a break. I need to be very careful now. I can't workout, I can't go to the dance lesson, I need to stay inside which drives me nuts. Hopefully the antibiotics will help, I really want to be ok during the presentation next week. Also, I have the trip to the US in two weeks. I need to be fine till then. Damn, always happens when it shouldn't lol
  12. Why "gals" in quotes? I don't get what you are saying. Yes the psychology is different. It's like going to a job interview for a job you really want vs going to an interview for a job you dislike or you are lukewarm about it out of necessity. That simple. Just for my own curiosity, are you a man, a woman or a couple using this account?
  13. One of the best matches in boxing history! Legendary fight. Holyfield was a beast. I think I would prefer taking a bullet than an uppercut from these guys.
  14. I have a pretty bad cough since Monday. I think I caught it on the dance lesson on Monday. Plenty of people were recovering from being sick. It also rains heavily this week. Not my best days. She did in fact reach out. I forgot I gave her my phone number. I deleted my Tinder account as I got fed up but she texted me on my phone number on Wednesday evening. We texted back and forth and exchanged some voice messages. For some reason I don't believe she is interested but on the other hand she did reach out. Maybe she just want to expand her social circle or make friends and whatnot or wants a penpal or free therapy...I don't understand really. Funnily enough, the bartender from Barcelona texted me yesterday. Almost 2 months later. She asked me if I am still there....we texted back and forth this morning, exhanged a couple of voice messages too. I would be lying if I said that hearing her voice didn't make me smile. Her voice made me feel pleasant unlike the gal from tinder where her voice makes me cringe for some unknown reason. I texted her it's a pity we didn't get to know each other better when I was there, I really liked her. She told me she is so busy with the job hunting that she doesn't have time to even meet friends. She also said I didn't know if I liked her since I didn't know her. I replied chatting some hours in a bar is enough to gauge if there is attraction and there was from my side. She replied yes, it's enough to understand. She said if I visit Barcelona again to let her know. Most likely it will never happen. But damn, completely different psychology when you talk to a gal you like with one you at best pass the time or have sex.
  15. I noticed something recently. When I drink beer I am fine, I become a lot less uptight, more giddy and funny. When I drink whiskey it has the same effect at first but later I noticed an underlying aggressiveness. I am more tensed, more in the mood to start a fight (I never have this feeling when sober) and I am getting angry quite fast. It's the only time I would gladly engage in a brawl in the street/bar (which is stupid). Not good when you are on a date or with women in general. Need to remember not to drink whiskey again on a date.
  16. It was a good day yesterday, I only did relaxing things. Went to the shooting range, hit the gym, walked on the beach (with a coffee of course lol), visited the dance school to chat a bit, went on a date with a woman from tinder. Unfortunately, she wasn't what I am looking for, no chemistry or physical attraction (I think from both sides), it was like talking to a friend. Not that I gained anything from the conversation but I guess it was better than staying home alone. All the girls I have met through dating apps all those years, none would be someone who would approach in real life. These dating apps are pointless for something serious. As a my childhood friend told me the other day, someone who has probably f*cked half of Athens so far from dating apps, the chances of finding a girl who you truly like from apps are pretty slim. Anyway, it wasn't that bad, at least she wasn't a nutcase or anything. She mentioned something of visiting my neighborhood once she is back from her trip. I don't know if she meant it because I didn't get any vibes she liked me. Go figure. Not that I care to meet her again. Unless she sends me first and I am horny that day lol God, please mate, let me meet a girl like the Mexican girl and I promise, I truly promise, I will donate to the church and start attending the service on Sundays. I would even go to the church choir. But first the girl! Amen!
  17. You need to overcome your nervousness if you would like to be more approachable.
  18. The CTO of a middle size company in Germany (Irish CEO) pinged me on LinkedIn. I have to say I am flattered if CTOs try to recruit me, it feels good being wanted hehehe. However, I wouldn't even consider it at this point. For the next two years I have to stay at my current company, I need to see how things would pan out with the US transfer. I have to say, the youtube channel was the best thing I ever did career-wise. You start something for fun and for yourself and in the end this is your best card. That's why all my decisions right now are based on what my heart wants and not what logic dictates. I feel all these hobbies I started recently will eventually lead to something pretty good in the long term. Should have done this years ago. What can you do......you do better when you know better.
  19. No but I am not going to ask because every time I asked they brought girls I didn't like whatsoever. Which makes sense since they don't know my taste (and I am not easy at all). Then they say I am difficult and "ungrateful" implicitly. I can find a girl I don't like this is not the problem, the thing is to find a girl I like and the only person who knows what I want is me so I have to do it.
  20. Hahahahahahahahaha thank you itsallgrand! Views coming from you count as double for me 🙂
  21. I see the teacher doing these moves and although they look easy there are not. I mean to do it with style. When the teacher does it it's cool, when I try it's like a handicapped trying to dance lol
  22. Yes I do interact of course, chat in between and a bit after the lessons etc. But this is the extent, it didn't happen to find someone yet that I could get closer. However, it's not that I don't socialize, it's that all those interactions are superficial. I want something deeper, and to be frank, I believe the only way to find it is on a girlfriend. A girlfriend that I like and I find interesting apparently, not the ones in the dating apps or the ones I have met through friends because those don't cut it.....Who knows...Maybe someday the planets will align.
  23. I agree about the lying part which is a red flag. But dude, from the title "shocking truth" I thought we were talking about a murderer lol. In most cases, you need to add from 3 to 20 in whatever number a girl tells you. Not that it matters in the end and I think it's dumb to talk about numbers but hey everyone is different.
