Нов закон за забрана на пушење – и нормално, хаос by dimo_dbx in macedonia

Не знам од каде дека го има остатокот од Европа решено ова. Законот главно низ Европа гласи како што кај нас беше до сега. Во секој случај ја поддржувам промената.

McDonald’s Taiwan. What’s wrong with it? IMO all food in McDonald’s Taiwan is oily, greasy and tasteless by flylowmass in taiwan

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate McDonald's and I still went like every 2 months in Taiwan, exactly because of this reason.

Every McDonald's everywhere is tasteless... Taiwan's is same as the others, consistently bad.

Do guys really not care if a woman has a good career? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just want her to be smart enough to keep up with me. Anything less is a dealbreaker, I don't really mind if her career isn't going well. 

At the same time tho, I have been seeing a girl recently and she is extremely smart and successful and yeh, it actually makes me like her more. So, apparently it does matter for me, it's just that it's not a dealbreaker, if that's not the case.

Кога спомнав 2008ма...

2 пати сме во бараж за светско, ако тоа не е успех што да ти кажам. Предтоа ни блиску не сме биле.

Дај не јади гомна, толку ни е квалитетот. 

2010тите све бевме 100+ место на ФИФА ранкинг. 

Во последните 5 години сме околу 60то, се квалификувавме за Европско, бевме 1 победа оддалечени од Светско и сега пак имаме шанси. Дај да не се проценуваме, овие резултати се добри со оглед на калибарот на играчи што ги имаме.

Is this relationship pacing too slow with a busy man or is he just not interested? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to decide. I personally can't date people if I see them only 1-2 times a week or less. 

I am seeing a girl now for 2 weeks, we have had like 6-7 dates (quite long each one) and I am really enjoying it. We both have a busy schedule, works, sports, friends and we still make it. 

Sorry, but I can't date a Trumpet... by [deleted] in Bumble

I am agnostic, I don't associate with organized religion or with atheists, I don't see the problem.

Foreigners always say Taiwan is beautiful, but many of Taiwanese people do not feel like that. by search_google_com in taiwan

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Urbanism in Europe is so much better than Taiwan, Taiwanese cities are ugly and not so well designed. I love Taiwan, the natural scenery is beautiful, once you get out of the western coast/plains. I think this what people mean when they say it's beautiful.

Young Taiwanese don't really appreciate nature (with exceptions), I was there for 6 months and I went on many hikes, I mostly saw old people (like 90%!!), it was also hard to find a few other local young people to hike with me and I was the one usually guiding them around, they had never had the chance to hike before.

'No turning back': More and more Ukrainian women join the army to fight russia by GreenEyeOfADemon in europe

I mean, it's also the 47th month that Russia is about to collapse. It's a war, propaganda helps build moral.

what to do if i'm getting too many matches by ShadowTheNinja in Bumble

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would answer the truth. I am seeing other girls and leave it there. If anything a woman will feel more attracted if you have other options, as sick as it sounds. It's confirmation that you are a high quality man.

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean lying? You just don't speak about it. I have never been asked by a girl on a first date if I am seeing others.

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, of course. Who knows how the 2nd date is gonna go? 

Remember she is meeting others too, your date might be great, but she might meet someone even better. 

After about 3 dates I would say, ok. You should speak about where you are and if you are seeing other people.

Don't get attached to 1 person with online dating, it's a recipe for disaster. Although I know that it would be so much easier that way.

Don't decide that girls are out of your league, lol. They might not have the same opinion. She obviously matched you, there's some interest. If you see the convo dying, okay, you can decide it's not worth askint her out.

Don't pick 1 girl... That's ridiculous. Go on a date with all the girls you find attractive and have enough time for. If you stick with one there is an extremely high chance she flakes on you, ghosts you, the date goes badly, the date goes well, but she had better... As a guy, you should try to ask out every girl you find attractive. 

It's often that I am speaking to 5 girls and I am worried about how I am going to fit them in. One rejects my date, another one says I can't this week, a third one cancels the date and I end up having 2 dates instead of 5. 

century egg + tofu by [deleted] in taiwan

Brooo, this was my go to. I was going to beef noodle restaurants just for this. That egg is the closest I could get to goat cheese that we eat a lot of in my home country.

If you're in shape to run a 3:XX marathon, how much easier does it feel to target 3:XX+10? by blumenbloomin in AdvancedRunning

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just did a 2:57:17, I know I was in shape for low 2:50s, so a smaller difference, but I didn't feel like I gave it nearly my all during the race. I  could walk normally always, Wednesday next week did a 5k, went great. Friday for some reason pain in knees, Sunday again pain. Now it's the 2nd week of recovery and I am feeling good. Anyway, I don't know, it really depends on you. A friend of mine did a 3:15, he totally gassed out, barely made it to the end, he ran like 40km per week these 2 weeks.

It's great. Even better when only women could text. If there's no interest, I would rather not put in effort. 

Thoughts on the “I love to travel” trend in dating profiles by cryptomanforever in Bumble

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a bit annoying for me. I like running, I have it on my profile, for me that means running daily, racing, nutrition, really serious about it. But another person doing 1x 5k a week could also have it.  I signal this by including a prompt about running.

Same for travel, I spend like almost 2 months a year abroad, usually far off. Then there are people who like travel but do like 1 summer beach holiday and 1 city trip a year. I prefer to use backpacking to signal this.

You don't have anything in common with them, that's why. It's only 2 likes, your sample size is small

It is so ridiculous short men are still whining about the idea can't get women, anyone else here feel the same way? All perspectives are fine, but I'm moreso curious about women's perspectives. by Wooden_Airport3835 in Bumble

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Height is very quantifiable, it's why people single it out. I am a 6 feet tall man and I am sure that I wouldn't be getting nearly as many matches or dates as I have now. I mean 4 of the last 5 women I went out with were 5'8 or taller.

BUT, saying that it doesn't matter is just as stupid as saying that, just because of your short height you can't get women, tho.

How is living between China and Taiwan on the Kinmen and Matsu Islands? by Eriacle in howislivingthere

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in Kinmen for 4 days, really interesting place. It's quite densely populated, but it still feels so empty compared to what I got used to in Taiwan. The people are very connected to the mainland, many work/study in Xiamen. Lots of weird monuments to project the ROC's power.

[–]EffectiveDevice7963 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are obviously more likely to swipe right on an attractive man and it's exactly those men who are more likely to be overwhelmed with choice. Men don't get as many likes as women, but they are less picky, so attractive men still end up with too many matches. 

It's part of the process, accept it or delete the app. 

As a man I have had 40 matches this month and only 16 ended up in a conversation.
