I am a 24 yrs old college student. How I got into PUA came from a friend who introduced me when I was expressing frustration in social situations of all kinds. He gave me the material and I have been studying and practicing since late October under his tutelage. I still feel I'm new and experimenting but so far I find that cocky/funny approaches seems to work best for me. This is because it does match my personality type, only now I know how to use it more successfully. I guess my greatest passions are films and learning anything new as long as its pragmatic to my life. My goals are centered around school and understanding & adapting to any environment that I find myself in. I don't have much of a back story other than difficulty communicating outside a specific group of friends and acquaintances. I lacked an understanding of social dynamics. I was able to have success with women in certain aspects as well engaging in conversation with a variety of people, however interpersonal communication irritated the hell out of me as I did not understand why someone did something. I was also naive as to when a woman was attracted to me and couldn't tell the signs which I would find out after the fact. That was my greatest reason probably for getting into PUA. (As a side note I had my first successful close last night which I will share later) Happy hunting
