Episode 1: Pilot

My name is RollingThunder. I'm 32 year-old male and I use an electronic wheelchair. I'm also an aspiring PUA. I've only recently discovered The Game and am only half-way reading it. So things are very much in the beginning. But let me give a little bit of background first.

In 32 years I've managed a massive score of one (1). I lost my virginity when I was 26 to an adorable 19 year-old, who was virgin as well. We dated for for about two years when I called it quits, and she came back to me physically for about a year until she had enough. I can't blame her. The sex and fantasies tended to blow my mind and for the duration of the relationship we had sex at least five times a week. But relationships need more than excellent sex to last.

Even during my 25 years of virginity I never perceived it as a much of a problem. I was in love with two girls before the one I went on to lose my virginity with, but didn't have luck with the ones I did love (or obsessed over). I wasn't really taking too much pressure over my status and thought that... well - if I can't get a relationship (& sex) with the girls that I really wanted, then I'll just take care of myself. So I did and I'm a prolific wanker. I know I don't necessarily need a woman to satisfy me, as I've got vivid enough imagination myself and can handle the business even on a prolonged dry spell. I think it also sets me up well for DHV - at the start of my relationship, I made it clear I can't be blackmailed with sex. I'm immune to that. It's true, and it also worked.

Now my dry spell is at a bit over two years. I still don't have too big of an urge to be honest to get directly into anyones undies, but I wouldn't mind either. Then I came across The Game and thought I'd give it a try - treat it as a game. I've never before viewed women as a game, but apparently it's something that could be expiremented on. I'm quite competetive dude and have been way too much in my comfort zone lately, so getting in to the game could get my competetive (and other) juices flowing.

My medical condition is the same as Sean Stephenson, although it isn't as severe as his (I'm taller - 4'5, look better, only somewhat deformed ). We both have brittle bones, but to that I've actually got a decent line. "I can't wrestle with boys, but I don't mind wrestling with girls." I need to use it to my advantage as in a wheelchair I get treated differently be default. When girls see me, their first impression is "I wonder what's wrong with him?" rather than "whee I'd like to roll in the sheets with him for a couple of hours."

However I'm very much in terms with my condition and anyone who knows me know that well. If it isn't a problem for me, it won't be a problem for a good amount of girls either. Of course for someone it will be too much of a threshold, but no one in this world can show a 100% record anyway. Overall I'm positive, confident and extroverted fella, and despite my physical shortcomingsm, socially I can hold my own with a girl no matter her looks. I don't see it being a detriment to my game if she's a 9 or a 6.

Actually I've never understood the "out of my league" concept. The girl I was in a relationship was a 9 or a 10 in my eyes, as I like my girls cute instead of beautiful. For me a lots of peoples 10 is a 7 or 8, because that's just my cup of tea that much. Actually I like a bit nerdy cute girls, but their introvertedness can be a challenge if I don't have enough practice. I haven't had practice yet (aside from my first date with the virgin girl, which I crushed btw), so that goal seems less likely right now than the outgoing main stream tens - my ex fell in love with me already online, so the game was over before the first date.

The biggest question for me right now is that how I'm going to turn the electronic wheelchair into a positive without going overboard with it. I've got a friend who goes overboard with it and it's not pretty, but brushing it off in a positive manner and moving on from it needs work. I'm known to get stuck on an issue and that's not good, just need a good continuation or a couple. Despite my confidence, I'm starting from the ground floor with my game.

I don't have any idea yet when I'll start with actual action, but I think for me day game might suit better than clubbing. My wheels don't dance too well and I don't mind being completely sober when talking to a random girl (few beers do help though). Also the barstools are usually quite high and the girls have to lean if they want to hear anything, so that's not optimal. I reckon it's a challenge when the woman is higher than you by default, and I don't yet know how to adjust to come off without too keen body language.

Despite having a self confidence and a positive outlook on life, I'm still definitely an AFC. But I know I can turn this thing around if I just put some effort into it and have a good time doing it. I am the type of guy who doesn't like to hurt girls too much, so I don't envision myself flying from one nest into another with a torrid pace. I'm more likely to get to know the girl, see if I feel anything, and build on the feeling if I do. If not, then keep honing my game and learning from past experiences.

How you guys think I'll do?

PS. This thread will be a blogesque chronicle of my life & times as an aspiring PUA, and will in no means contain only field reports. I've got a bevvy of topics in mind and going to use this as a way of clearing my head of the observations I've made and also shed some light into how the chair changes the game.

Episode 2: Training for eye contact

I've done some guinea pig testing the last couple of years on the street. Assuming that I'm in the right state of mind (75% of the time), each time a girl or a woman passes, I always make eye contact and smile with a relaxed face (forehead relaxed, eyebrows more up than down). I only skip the ones who look like they're fucking pissed off or too drunk. No matter her age or looks, I always look her in the eye. Kinda challenge her.

For the first year or so, if a decent looking woman (18-25) looked back and kept eye contact, my head was the first one to turn away. Since then I've built my self confidence and nowadays I never have to turn my head away. It's a simple game and an easy way to build your self confidence, despite getting a mixed bag of results.

This is what I've gathered when I roll past her:

Ages 18-25:
Ignoring, looking ahead 50%
Give a glimpse like you're a beggar out of Bucarest, continue to look ahead 35%
Keep eye contact, relaxed and sometimes a smile back 15%

Ages 25-40:
Ignoring, looking ahead 45%
Give a glimpse like you're a beggar out of Bucarest, continue to look ahead 35%
Keep eye contact, relaxed and sometimes a smile back 20%

Ages 40+:
Ignoring, looking ahead 40%
Give a glimpse like you're a beggar out of Bucarest, continue to look ahead 30%
Keep eye contact, relaxed and sometimes a smile back 30%

Of course the chair changes the perception somewhat, so you're likely to have better results than me. The better you look, the better the percentages.

Naturally the younger ones are the ones to brush you off easier, which is obviously bad news since an aspiring pua such as myself who enjoys them younger gals. At least physically, that is. The older ones don't see me as a potential threat, so they're happy to even smile back at times. In a country where I live in, random people just don't do that. I don't live in the States or Southern Europe. Not in Bucarest either.

A while back I also did singing tests to challenge the social protocol, but mostly with 18-30. I'd have my earphones on, sang whatever that was playing on my Spotify and looked people in the eye, with relaxed face and a twinkle my eye. 60% of the girls were confused (wtf look), 25% looked disapproving and 15% smiled back. Anyway, probably 100% thought I shouldn't be driving drunk mid-day. However, I was (almost) always sober. It was fun and I encourage trying it in a town where there ain't masses of people, it's a challenge for yourself and the ones you walk by. Especially if you are introverted. But never do it if you don't feel like smiling and are relaxed doing it.

These training methods should definitely help with keeping eye contact when entering the real game. You can't be looking down or away when talking to a potential target. If you can't muster up eye contact at first with a 20 year-old stunner, try a 80 year-old elderly women and then age down from there. It'll get easier.
