No date yet but I'm still on the right track I think, likes are increasing at least just not the ones I'm interested in. 2 on Bumble today. I'm hoping to get some better outdoor pictures next weekend and there is a 90's party next month that seems really interesting both in terms of hooking up with someone there or to get some good party pics for the profile. Also next week a co-worker has arranged a padel course as a group activity for the team. I wasn't going when she told me about it last year but now I've signed up anyway. Tommorow I'm going to dinner to discuss a possible new business venture with another co-worker and the local business club has invited me too.
Overall ever since I started this path I've improved a lot of things about myself.
I wasn't fat, but I wasn't fit either. That's changing rapidly. Plus my living room has also never been this clean and well organized.
What I need to work on still is my sleeping pattern, I'm a night owl and I seldom get out of bed before 9AM but I want to start doing early morning runs when the weather clears up.
As for the apps, I'm happy with my bio and description now. It's very confident and upbeat. One of the ice breakers is: "I've asked embassy security armed with machine guns directions to McDonalds in Berlin" which is actually a true story and explains the kind of person I am with a single sentence. On a high school trip I just walked up to this military police blockade with guys in full body armor, MP5s and helmets in front of an embassy and was like "yo guys do you know where the McDonalds is". I've also added 2 pictures that show how tall I am. One is me casually standing on a cabinet to replace a lightbulb on the ceiling, the other a picture of me standing in front of my cleaned up entertainment center with my arms folded wearing shorts and a shirt. They instantly became the most popular.
I've also increased the distance to ~50km and eased up on the filters. Some girls are looking for something casual but something casual could become something else if it clicks and some pick casual to avoid guys that want to instantly marry and have kids. I think that in the end I'll have more luck at the parties and other events than on the apps though. They're also a time sink with how many uninteresting samey profiles, single moms and fatties there are to grind through. I've started using Music Mode on Tinder, which makes it a bit more fun.
As for the redhead, business wise I ran into a fantastic opportunity but it was not something our company usually does and the competition was heavy. I needed a social-media marketing person ASAP. So I included her as a contractor into the deal and won the bid.
Overall things are on the up and up and I'm crushing it. The quarterly revenue target will probably be met by the end of this month.

- I'm less laid back and taking far more initiative.
- I'm going outside way more and I've stopped ordering everything online.
- I used to do daily walks but only in good weather, now I have 10k steps a day easily.
- I've moved from just 5kg dumbbells in December to 12kg dumbbells yesterday.
- Overall I engage more with people socially, I'm less avoiding them like uninteresting NPC's. (even if most are)
- I try to make the most out of every opportunity.
- First I would take charge when no one else would, now I take charge first.
