That transaction can stay easily a week without a single confirmation...
You can only wait and hope it will get confirmed, that's the only thing you can do.

It's not possible to retroactively add a fee. As above said the only thing you can do is wait. the money will either confirm or get sent back to you so don't worry.

There are two possible outcomes: - Transaction eventually gets included in a block from some pool that accepts transactions with fees below the recommended threshold, then it will get confirmations just like a "normal" transaction. It might take up to several days though,
- Unconfirmed transaction times out (expiring from other nodes mempool), and the amount is returned to your balance. Depending on your client, it may require some tweaking and/or blockchain reset/resync
I guess you could accelerate things by deleting your wallet AFTER SAVING PRIVATE KEYS FROM ALL INPUTS WITH NON-ZERO BALANCES (and those with zero balance if you plan to re-use them), create a new wallet and import all private keys back. Then you can "double spend" (re-spend if you prefer) the bitcoins, but it will only be accepted from nodes that already discarded the previous unconfirmed transaction. Do not try this if you aren't sure about the private keys import/export operation, as you could lose access to your bitcoins permanently. Another idea would be to double spend using a raw transaction, but that requires some advanced skills. Also, there is a BIP (Bitcoin Improvement Proposal) to allow increasing the fee retroactively, but it's not possible at the moment AFAIK. PS: How can you deliberately forget something? I guess it's a language mistake

I've just been greedy, no language mistake. A terrible mistake.

Either way the Bitcoins are not lost, they're just flying in the Bitcoin space and will either be sent to original recipient or sent back to me?

Yes. Technically not sent back to you, but transaction will be discarded and amount will be available again on your balance for spending

Why would it do such? I mean, it's just a no fee legit transaction right?

The transaction fee is processed by and received by the bitcoin miner. Some wallet developers might also get some transaction fee, depending on the implementation. Fees are not high, it is better to include them.

Transactions without fee may be long, several miners are choosing blocks with higher fee. Has it occurred to me that a transaction without fee delay 4 days to confirm.

There are several factors to determine the fee. The most known is the size of the TX, 0.0001 per KByte, but the age and the size of the input also matter. I had a TX that did not confirm for 8 days with very small inputs. 4 inputs total 0.0022 BTC. In the end I had to doublespend the TX with fee. I also had a TX just this morning that had a single input >1 BTC and confirmed within 9 minutes without fee. See here [1] for the formula.

if you are not in a rush be greedy and wait more, it might get confirmed otherwise i think you have to look into double spending your bitcoins just delete the transaction and create a new one

No, you cannot modify a transaction that is already broadcasted but you still can doublespend it although it may be difficult. Most node refused to relay your transaction as your transaction does not include a standard fee and the coin age of the 0.1BTC is very low which brings down the priority of the confirmation. The node probably stopped relaying your transaction as other nodes are not willing to accept and relay your transaction.

"I delibeteraly forgot" lolwhat?
Your only option is to wait it out, at least you'll know not to skimp on the miners next time.

The transaction has now been dropped in blockchain.info mempool. You can create a double-spend transaction with standard tx fee and push it to the network easily now.

It is normal for small transactions, just wait for it to be transfered.
