Thanks guys 
Thing is I'm already in a comfortable position job -wise. I'm doing an internship in a company(you knew that) and my mentor was impressed with me (thankfully). He said that he would pitch to make me perm if I did a good job in my internship. It's a small company, so everyone's really close,I really like working close with people , it's a great environment and we have tons of abundance of work to do. It's a perfect environment for me, I love doing lots of work,staying late and working(kind of a workaholic) etc.
He was really vague when he called me. I told him to straight up tell me what he wanted from me. My guess is he wants me to build him something like an app or a website for his company probably for less money (he'll play the bro card) . But the interesting part was he was very defensive when I asked him to tell me what he wanted, he was telling me like "what are you dumb dude? This is business stuff, I can't tell this over the phone". I do understand his concerns but I don't appreciate getting talked to addressing me as a dumbass, especially when he needs me and not the other way around, I guess he didn't get the memo that I changed immensely since our last interaction. He probably thinks I'm still that really skinny guy that was such a pushover, really wanted to punch his face when he talked to me like that, we weren't even close, it's common to talk with an insult tone with friends but he isn't a friend,I guess he was trying to like put on the vibe that "yee we're still Bros man". Fucking dipshit.
It's possible that he'll ask me for an investment. That is probably the reason why he wanted to meet in person, so that he can sway me away with his charisma and I'll have a harder time saying no to his face (like hell).
I could be my blatant self and tell him straight up to go fuck himself but this is about connections. I ruled this guy out of the friend sector long ago, he's purely business sector, I might have some use of him in the future, so I'm gonna bite my tongue and probably tell him politely that I'm too busy and just can't make it.
