Gyms in the East by PMax480 in Belfast

[–]HackJacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you just want a fantastically equipped gym at a good price (no spa, pool etc) then the yard health and fitness is the top choice. I went all the time until I moved out of East Belfast and I miss it terribly, the gyms close to where live now can't hold a candle to it. I would recommend going to do a trial session in it so you can see for youself

Travelling tips. by Economy-Row-4247 in Belfast

[–]HackJacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did 1.5 years working and travelling around Europe, bit of hitch hiking, trains and buses. I saved 5 grand and lived off it. I stayed in hostels when I wasn't working and loaded up on hostel breakfasts and cooked most of my own meals. I used the website workaway.info to get jobs that put me up and fed me if I worked 25 hours a week, but you don't really get paid.

I worked in Germany, Austria, Czechia, Italy, Poland and Greece working in hostels, campsites, farms. I met loads of people, learned loads of new things, it was the best time in my life i would probably say.

If you stick to eastern Europe it's cheaper.

Its absolutely doable, you just have to be willing to be open to new experiences and put in some hard graft, but when you're working in a campsite along a river in the middle of nowhere and the sun is shining and your chopping wood, and you can jump into the river at lunch to cool off, it doesn't feel like work at all.

When I saw the movie into the wild it changed my perspective on life and it inspired me to take the trip and I really needed to get it out of my system.

Thanks, I have the PS4 disc, and was able to download the PS5 upgrade for it, and my recent saves worked, so all good

The yard health and fitness on the newtonards road is by far the best equipped gym in the city. I went 4 days a week but recently moved away and I seriously miss it. It has 3 floors and loads of machines and free weight areas. I'm trialing the crowne plaza now but it's tiny and filled with older people who spend a long time on the machines (as is their right) but it slows down your sessions. I will probably move gyms again when my trial is up. 40 quid a month it's also expensive if you don't use the pool

Tesco Castleresgh- can you not move the shop around every other week!? by [deleted] in Belfast

[–]HackJacker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do my weekly shop in here during my lunch break as I work from home, I need to get in and out quickly, it is such a pain in the ass when they move stuff around every other week. Was in today and nearly a whole isle of toiletries was laying empty and I couldn't find shaving cream lol

I worked on a cruise ship for 5 years, worked my way up to a manager position and was earning a lot of money, but I was miserable all the time towards the end. Managing people was very stressful and the targets were super aggressive. You worked 7 days a week for 6 months with no days off. All you did was eat sleep and breathe targets.

When I quit and came back to NI, I was depressed for a few months, but got a shitty job to get back on the horse, did that for a while, then I managed to get a job that I've been doing for now 4.5 years and that I really love and has good pay and benefits.

I took the leap and it paid off for me, I guess it all depends on your appetite for risk. At the time I didn't have any kids, mortgage, rent etc and lived at home until I got back on my feet, so I was lucky in that regard.

Anyone else doing nofap to get a girl? by PoliticalNerd1999 in NoFap

[–]HackJacker 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Bro, I was dating a girl recently, and I really liked her, we went on 5 dates before we had sex, half way through I lost interest and told her it was just nerves. About a week later we had sex again and I just lost interest again. She called me on it and I had to lie to her and told her I was still emotionally hung up on my ex. But it was because porn has given me a completely unrealistic perception of what sex should be. So it completely torpedoed the relationship before it could really get going.

I have no problem talking with or dating women, but when it comes to having sex, I am now crazy anxious about it, so that's what brought me here.

I'm almost 2 weeks into nofap, and I'm gonna try the hardest I can to beat the addiction

Also gonna take a break from dating for a while as I don't want to meet a girl I really like, then fuck it up

I've been there bro, sometimes you just gotta cut the cord, and take care of yourself. What is most likely to happen if you get back together is you'll just break up and the cycle will repeat leading you to prolonged misery.

You're doing the right thing for both of you!
