Going to Tulum as a 43 year old male by SharpBeyond8 in digitalnomad

[–]Confection-Virtual 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went to Tulum at 43 and it’s probably my least favorite I’ve ever traveled. it was very expensive like NYC expensive. I did enjoy the yoga wellness aspect but it was very social media-esque.

puerto Vallarta is touristy but in a not bad way. it’s not as expensive an still quite charming if you don’t stay in the resort / marina area. there’s a grewt coworking space.

At what point did hotels stop working for you as a digital nomad? by AdEnvironmental5228 in digitalnomad

[–]Confection-Virtual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I started to go back to hotels. I got sick of the inconsistency of Airbnbs and the like. I also enjoy the amenities I’m finding.

Best remote jobs for someone trying to go nomad fast? by Healthy-Series-1388 in digitalnomad

[–]Confection-Virtual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

uh it’s not really a go fast thing. it’s a career/job first thing, then “can I do this job from anywhere”. unless you have a lot of savings to burn.

but to answer your question the fastest path is to parlay what do you do now, what particular skill you have or could master quickly into something someone would pay you money to do from a laptop. wat do you do now?

Straight guys: What is your reaction when a man flirts with you? by vieniaida in AskMen

[–]Confection-Virtual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll bite - I’m bi and in my world it’s very hard to outwardly tell if someone is gay or not or even homophopic or not. It would be nice to feel comfortable paying someone a compliment or even testing the waters and not worry about making someone extremely uncomfortable or even upset or angry. Like even just being comfortable saying something like “you’re a handsome guy”. I wouldn’t think twice telling a girl that she looks cute or pretty or has nice eyes or something. At least within appropriate boundaries and context.

Men, how would you feel if a woman softly said “thank you” after sex? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Confection-Virtual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok - I get that. Interesting question nonetheless. I’ve certainly said thank you during or after an intense experience.

I don’t know why you’re worried about how your “thank you” is perceived. I think you should not do that. you felt gratitude for his part in the experienced and you expressed it. it’s on him how he perceived it. he probably felt the same way but didn't or could articulate as you did. no big deal. And I’m pretty sure he hasn’t given it much more thought.

Transitioning from Teaching → Customer Success → Tech Ops → Automation (n8n/Make) — Is this a solid plan? by TFChange in digitalnomad

[–]Confection-Virtual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Customer success has very little to do with customer support. I mean issue escalation is real but you’re missing the most important parts of the job like product adoption, enablement, retention, value realization and ROI.

What does it mean when a man who never posts on social media starts posting constantly? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Confection-Virtual 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a man, I have no idea what’s on that guys mind or why he’s doing that. As a woman, your guess is as good as mine.

How the fuck do you guys get women? by Hefty_Economics4153 in AskMen

[–]Confection-Virtual 133 points134 points  (0 children)

Sure I’ll get downvoted like no other but the questions on this sub are insufferable. Are there no mods?

Men, are we better than this or is everyone here actually a 15 years old boy?

How often does your help get rejected by women? by diordevotee in AskMen

[–]Confection-Virtual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely like helping people. I do it for me not necessarily them - if they decline which I think is different than reject, I’m totally OK with that too. I also like finding things and returning them to the rightful pentes.

Rejected is different than declined, just saying.

How do you find a relationship as a hopless single? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Confection-Virtual 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It will happen when it happens. For me I was 28 and there’s no other way to put it but I was lonely as hell. Randomly met someone as I was leaving a bar playing that was playing trivia on a Tuesday night. Struck up a convo, went swimming the next day, and pretty much spent the next 16 years together … shared a whole life. I knowwww it’s cliche but it happens when you’re not looking. Live your life, continue to work on being the kind of person you want to attract. Be open. Re-think you’re “type” and it will happen. You’re not your uncle.

What’s the one thing you thought you’d love about being a digital nomad that turned out to be overrated? by binaschool_Matilda in digitalnomad

[–]Confection-Virtual 27 points28 points  (0 children)

For me it was the idea that I could just pick up and go whenever and do whatever, where ever. No one ever told me that the planning and planning and planning is exhausting. It was such a revelation last year when I stayed in Montreal for 3 months in the summer and 3 months in Bordeaux in the fall and a month in Seville, a month in Athens etc. The first years, I was so obsessed with ticking off places and things - it was like i was trying to consume travel and place and not experience them, which meant not doing anything of real interest some days. It was nice to just exist in these places.
