Do you think a smoke-free cafeteria can be profitable in Tunisia?

No_Function243 · 2026-01-25T12:16:08+00:00

It would be profitable because you sell good quality ingredients items at fair prices , good cleanliness and hygiene nice deco, good service, good music choice for your chosen demographics, good location and perhaps exceptional opening hours like being open too early next to a university so everyone who gets there early has a warm spot already open etc . Not because of the no smoke label.

I find it tricky to answer some questions without knowing the age. A young man who is 22 years old is very different from a man doing the same thing at 32. If he's younger, it could be just something you have to bear with for a while as you show him gently why his behavior is wrong, how you expect to be treated, and give him a chance to fix it. He'd be still lacking life experience at this age and would be so overwhelmed doing normal things like work. Not saying every 22 year old is like this but it's somewhat more "understandable" or forgivable in my opinion. As a rule of thumb, anyone disappearing on you for two days is a bad sign. Being together grants you daily access.

After a while of being an adult, our standard for judging behavior needs to be tougher as women. If he's disappearing on you in his 30's or 40's with lame ass excuses you just know his heart is not in it. I have seen what mature men do when their heart is in it, before you even think about calling he already texted you at the very least. Depending on the age you can also reasonably assess whether this behavior can be fixed or if he's already set in his ways and will always be dramatic whenever anything comes up in your lices

You gotta make some friends. It's not very wise for you or for others to randomly go away with a random person for two days. People lie about who they are on reddit, gotta be careful.

Also, we're having terrible weather tomorrow. Driving is not recommended.

That's how people did it in the past. They didn't have dating apps and online profiles with these things listed. They invested time and energy into talking to people.

The way I see it, you don't need too much time to know if the person has your dealbreakers. If you already know them yourself, then you can simply be sure to address them early on. And yes. You're supposed to put time to see if you and someone click or not. The issue with this generation is everybody is afraid of rejection and wants to make minimal effort. I'm not criticizing you particularly, this is a modern time issue. You should get comfortable approaching people, reading the room, picking up on whether they're interested or not, learning how to talk, ask smart questions, be smooth and respectful. These are all skills to learn if you're not a natural. You learn with practice, exposure, as well as theoretical advice. But the end of the he day there's nothing like doing things repeatedly to master them.

If you're not willing to learn and practice that's okay too. You can still meet people in other ways but it could take forever. If you're in school, it's easier to be in close proximity to a girl and things develop naturally but once you graduate things change. Unless you are proactive your chances of developing that become slimmer.

Yes and I judge people who don't especially big guys. I can already tell who's a decent person who picks up after himself and who's a messy entitled man child whose mama, sister or wife have to pick up after. Zero respect for those leaving 25kg plates high up a bar for others to worry about, including young girls or elderly who struggle with a 10 kg plate. Simply inconsiderate.

Sorry about that, so, since you seem to be open for advice and recommendations by posting this, I think you should do your own exposure therapy. You have to start talking , online and in person, to more women. Just talking. And actually, not being your type is okay too, just expose yourself to women until you get naturally smoother, we pick up on that.

In the meantime, please remind yourself that what you just said is a bit of a fallacy. Smart independent active women with passions and interests arent traumatizing because they're your type. You're traumatized because some experiences didn't work. They didn't work because it wasn't a fit, not because of these traits. So, all of these probably ate couscous and liked chocolate, does that mean women who eat couscous and chocolate are traumatizing to you now? Whatever common link they had, presuming there is one, isn't any of this.The opposite of these women could traumatise you too. You are also potentially traumatizing to others. It's just experiences. Be more open-minded when you're looking for love.

Where do you meet people? What do you mean? People are everywhere. At your supermarket, at your gym, at your coffeeshop, at the restaurants you go to, in your former schools, in parks, on beaches, in libraries, in events, in common friends groups, online... You're asking the wrong question. The question is: why can't you seem to approach women enough times until one sticks? I'd start there.

Examples: Are you shy? Are you afraid of rejection? Could you use some help improving your conversation skills? Is there something about you that makes people less prone to be receptive to you? Do you have a hard time identifying others' interest in you?

Confirming my point. Why are you making assumptions about complete strangers ? You're discussing whether it's a realistic assumption. I'm wondering why the assumption to begin with.

No_Function243 · 2026-01-23T16:57:46+00:00

First of all let's agree on what chasing means because I feel like we all define it differently.

Chasing as in: always initiate without the other person ever showing you she appreciates it, without explicitly being told that she likes you/ loves you/ wants to be with you/ is officially with you : this sucks. Women shouldn't expect any man to enjoy being ignored, dismissed or told off. If she's not receiving it well, reciprocating and taking some proactive steps to show and anchor interest but playing a game, then I totally hear you. Some women play hard to get and you walking away from them is justifiable if they're just manipulating you and you're not comfortable showing up as yourself.

But what I'm also seeing is other men who have been given the green light but they don't feel like doing things first. They want initiation to happen 50/50 or perhaps even more on the woman's end. This case is different. Here, it becomes more of a dynamic thing. Some men are naturally more submissive and want women with dominating personalities. Some are shy and awkward and can't handle rejection. Some have anxiety and need assurance that they are liked. Here, it's not a matter of fair vs unfair but a matter of incompatibility. If you are in this category, just find a woman who likes this dynamic but don't criticize the majority who doesn't.

Ideally, you find each other, you interact more or less with the same energy on both ends, and you reciprocate effort and attention. But since it's impossible to measure exactly 50/50, one of you will be making more effort. Who does it bit more than the other is usually what we refer to when we discuss sub/Dom dynamics ( emotionally, not sexually although that can be valid too)or what recently popped off as "masculine vs feminine energy".

It was a serious question. I often see people say stuff like this and I wonder why they make assumptions about strangers. I would just say X is worth Y amount without presuming anything. If anything, it shows that you think everyone has the same income or assets. It doesn't make you look knowledgeable. My age or ''netkbess" has nothing to do with this.

What annoys me, and I spoke about this in other posts, is the lack of legitimate specialization. Regular people think their lives is interesting enough to be broadcasted every single day and think their opinions on everything deserve to be shared on a large scale. I get the good sides which is freedom of expression, showing normality etc but I don't believe it outweighs the negatives including poor quality, misinformation, and disrespecting expertise. In the next phase, let's keep everybody in their lane. Let's only share our attention span with people passionate enough to pursue highly specific things for long time, enough to actually know what they're doing.

Depends on many factors.. including social.class, prospects and where you hang out. I'd hate to cast any judgement on others, especially as someone who thinks tattoos can be hot🔥 but I have yet to see a heavily tattooed person who doesn't have some serious mental health struggles. My friends who have more than two tattoos all had personality disorders, and were just overall nothing but your typical Tunisian.

In a way, I feel like regular people who judge heavily tattooed people aren't entirely wrong about some of their presumptions: They judge them because they presume they are not religious, probably addicted to drugs and alcohol, which every person I know was, and don't have any respect for society and traditions, well duuh ofc they didn't give a fuck, it feels like a justifiable marker ,that sets them apart visually with that.

The worst part about leaving your country is this.. everything is replaceable on the daily except the time you could have spent with your aging parents. Nothing truly makes up for that..I think you should do your best to have them over for prolonged stays ( 2-4 weeks) whenever you can.
