I thought he was a nice guy. We met at the George bar ( a gay bar in dublin) and added each other on facebook/instagram. He was only contemplating Olympics at the time (back in 2018) so was more grounded. But with time, I feel he got more arrogant as though a chip on his shoulder about the whole "I'm an elite athlete" sort of thing. I've noticed how he didn't take it well when his followers made constructive criticism. He always flaunted on his social media how he blocks "negative people". Negative people is one thing, but followers who don't always agree to his opinions or who aren't a "yes man" are blocked too. This immaturity for you. I had to unfollow him after his repeated wining about people texting him about his sexuality and others things.
So yeah, crying like a loser on television and acting like a big boss man on social media doesn't really help much.
That's a lot of feelings to have about someone you've only met the once.
He's a young lad who, through his social media at least, seems to be still trying to grapple with who he is, what he stands for and what he wants to do - with the added pressure of being an "elite athlete" and being bisexual in a hyper-masculine field. Give him a break, figuring out who you are is hard enough without the extra pressure/attention that comes from what he does for a living.
In terms of his social media persona, I can see flashes of the arrogance you're on about......but that's what a lot of lads are like at that age. If you weren't? Cool. But lots of my friends were; and if they had social media followings I dare say their character flaws would have been 20x worse.
On his "repeated whining", I think he's absolutely entitled to be speaking out against receiving sexualised messages. You don't have a right to dirty text anyone, much less so if its someone you don't know and you're doing so unsolicited. Why can't he speak out against that? Why can't he vent his frustrations with it?
Overall, dude, nobody has that many strong opinions on someone they've met once. Did he not match with you on tinder? Did he not tap you back on grindr?
Whatever it is/was, there's no need to be slating someone online and mocking them for being emotional after
