I met this girl recently, and I’m open to talking to people in general, so I just started a casual chat. She mentioned she was from Estonia, and since I’ve travelled a bit, I guessed it right. We talked for a while, and she told me she works for a company I’m familiar with (I might’ve overdone it by calling them evil a few too many times, lol).
At some point, I noticed her hands were cold and commented on it, and she said something like, “I’m not that kind of girl.” That kind of threw me off, so I backed off for a bit. Later, as she was about to leave the bus, I asked for her number—more out of habit than genuine interest since we’re in different cities—and when she said no, I said, “Your loss.”
In hindsight, I realise saying “your loss” was kind of stupid and reactive. It didn’t come from a place of confidence but frustration. A better way might’ve been to let her go with something like, “Alright, take care, maybe we’ll cross paths again.” It’s got me thinking about how to handle rejection better and keep the vibe light without trying to force a win.
What are your thoughts on this? How do you handle situations where things don’t go as planned? Do you think saying “your loss” just comes off as salty, and how would you approach moments like this with more abundance?

The point I’m also trying to make is that as men we are not in the obesity category and we shouldn’t complain, we are already part of the healthier people so it’s all about frame and mindset to gain whatever we want! Be grateful and power up boys!!!
@Dark108 These small island nations are special cases. They introduced western diet too rapidly, and ended up eating foods for which their DNA hadn't adapted. As a result, they suffered immensely from diabetes and obesity. There are cases where a huga part of the population was extinct in just one or two generations.
It’s shocking but true—125.5 million people in the U.S. are classified as obese, which is around 43% of the population. That’s an alarming figure, but it’s even more staggering in smaller countries like: • Tonga: 70.54% (Population ~104,175) • Nauru: 70.18% (Population ~11,947) • Tuvalu: 63.93%.
The percentages are astonishing, especially when considering the small populations of these nations. It highlights the global nature of the obesity crisis, but with varying levels of impact based on geography and population size.
