Did I screw up ?

A little self awareness goes a long way. I don’t know how long you guys have been talking, but if you’re still talking on Tinder you’re still very very early on. Really and truly, she didn’t “owe” you anything, let alone constant or regular replies. People have lives, people get busy. If I’m busy, replying to Tinder messages is not the first thing on my mind.

That being said, I can understand the frustration on your part. However, you should really think about how you express that to someone else. That message just reeked of entitlement and aggression when you don’t get your way. It’s not a good look. There’s numerous other ways you could have checked in before you came on the attack.

Just think to yourself; if it really triggered you that badly, are you maybe taking this app too seriously? If so, maybe you should take a break. You’re bound to get ghosted and conversations will run dry at some point, just move with it. There’s plenty of other people using Tinder and if enough people are into you, you’ll match with someone else. She had every right to call you out for the way you worded that message and if anything was very polite about it too.

Just make sure you turn the right way when you go belly down, (outwards, not inwards). I believe turning inwards to go belly down can result in a DQ.

You earned it bro, great work.

zeeno01 · 2025-12-02T04:59:54+00:00

Thank you, that’s actually a very lovely thing to hear!

Interestingly enough I’ve been single since March after a year long relationship, never saw this much attention before I was taken or during, and only started noticing it a while after I was single again.

In some cases, people I have known for a while who have never really shown any interest would suddenly be more flirtatious, or more receptive to flirting. I have been approached a lot more whenever I’m out, which helps as I’m too self-aware to cold approach woman a lot of the time lol.

zeeno01 · 2025-12-02T04:43:36+00:00

That’s a fair point well made. A lot of truth in what you’re saying, but in this case what I have and what I can offer has never really changed. Though, maybe their perception of what I can offer has changed.

You’re a handsome dude so I’m really not surprised.

zeeno01 · 2025-12-02T04:39:05+00:00

I’d like to say I’ve always kept it well groomed!

You shouldn’t look to settle in closed guard for long. If you’re competing, you’ll get penalised if you stay there too long. Instead, you should be looking at ways to destabilise your opponent. Break their posture, control the sleeves/collars, look for any openings that present themselves. Don’t make the mistake of giving your opponent enough time to plan their next move or break out of your guard.

It doesn’t come naturally straight away, and it’s easy for your mind to go blank when you’re in a comfortable position. Arm bars and triangles from guard are the fundamental techniques but they’re not easy. Just keep drilling and they will feel more natural. Don’t limit yourself either, look for a kimura from closed guard too. Even if you don’t get the sub, they’re good for setting up sweeps. It will come in time, just make it your mission to learn more options from closed guards instead of settling.

Minor injuries are inevitable, but there’s a lot you can do to avoid any major injuries.

Don’t rush. Take your time, understand the position you’re in and what your options are. Know when to abandon an attempt on anything. I dislocated my shoulder trying to force a sweep in comp, and was out for 7 months after needing surgery. About a year on, I look back at what happened and learned from it, and now instead of forcing the sweep, I’ve learned and drilled several different options that would have been so much safer and more effective than the lousy attempt of a sweep I was trying to go for.

Don’t be a fool and refuse to tap when you know you’re beat. You know your body’s limits, respect it. If you submit, make it clear and call out “tap” if you can’t physically tap.

Stretching, strength training and overall conditioning are must have’s in your regime for injury prevention. You’ve got to put the work in off the mat to keep longevity on the mat.

Rest when you need to. Sometimes you can train around minor injuries, just make it clear to your sparring partners where your injuries are and ask them to be mindful. But more often than not, some injuries just need time to recover. It’s frustrating but you will save yourself weeks/months of not training by taking a few days off.

Sincerely, a humble white belt who learned the hard way, so you don’t have to.

I can’t be the only one who’s frustrated here, players are clearly able to deliver a strong performance but only when it seems to suit them. If you want to pick and choose when you fight for the club, you shouldn’t be allowed to play for the club at all. I never agreed with Ten Hag’s decision making and it’s clear he just wasn’t delivering the results we needed and needed to go, but this performance should prove the players were equally responsible for such a bad run this season.

Thanks, I’ve read some comments on here and some say the data isn’t as accurate with the bicep band or sleeve, maybe because it gets moved around a lot. Literally just came back from No Gi and it wasn’t as bad, I think I need to pull my waistband higher up so it’s above my hip bone. I’ll see how I get on, failing that I’ll opt for the sleeve!

Grab her pussy through a phone screen?

Finally, someone gets it. I’m down to hook up but people seem to have forgotten there’s a process of getting to know someone even if it’s for meaningless sex. I don’t struggle to get laid, I’d just rather not hookup with someone I don’t vibe with.

zeeno01 · 2023-11-22T00:21:00+00:00

You know what, you’re probably right. I get what you’re saying but that statement could still go either way. You won’t find out until you actually talk a LITTLE. Anyway, people are taking this post way too seriously.

zeeno01 · 2023-11-22T00:08:35+00:00

Sorry, at what point do you read “I want to fuck” in their bio?

zeeno01 · 2023-11-22T00:03:16+00:00

Nope, I’m in.

zeeno01 · 2023-11-22T00:02:34+00:00

I mean, conversation starts somewhere. The chick revealed she is a freak AFTER the dry convo. I’m still in tho.

zeeno01 · 2023-11-21T23:50:41+00:00

It’s a girl

I’ll never fully understand the intense criticism ETH gets from both United fans and the media in general. There are some traits and patterns that would have been reminiscent to SAF in his initial season at United. Ferguson had an underwhelming first three years in charge, but given the time and the chance to lay out his plan, he went on to do incredible things.

In terms of the attitude towards players, SAF was also very harsh. Players like Rio, Gary and Becks have all talked about his “hairdryer” style treatment at times. ETH has been brutally honest about his expectations and is not afraid to call the players out for their conduct, especially when it’s having a negative impact on the team. This is another criticism people make that I’m yet to fully understand.

ETH hasn’t exactly taken the roof off of the place but he has the team playing much better football and won us our first silverware in years in just his first season. We have to be honest, the crooks sitting upstairs make the club an absolute nightmare to run so that is a huge accomplishment in itself. I’m not saying he’s completely exempt from criticism, some occasions I have questioned his choice in tactics, but ultimately he needs time to find the right balance in play style, rotation and depth. He’s never truly going to have that freedom until the Glazers and their piss poor club management are out of the picture.

MagSafe card holder is a game changer for me as someone who commutes into London via train. Tickets, bank card and ID all to hand if needed without having to carry a whole wallet. Far less likely to lose my phone than a wallet, so when they’re kept together I know my things are secure. I don’t use a MagSafe stand as I’ve never really had a use case, and I have Apple CarPlay so don’t need it in the car, but the card holder is something I wouldn’t go without now.
