Hello everyone

I have a major hang up in my game now and it's completely killed it. A year and a half ago when the economy crashed I was trying the whole entrepreneurial thing and starting my first business experiment. I lost everything, I even sold my only asset, my Jeep and have since been going on my businesses insurance policy to survive, and it's not a premium one.

Yep, if I frame it like this, i can still pick up the girls I want, only the 'insurance policy' is living with my parents, and they are not players, not at all. Yea, so I cannot close a deal, I'm having problems even on the approach because I have no closing ground and my relationship with my parents is so anti-me-getting-laid that I won't even bring a girl over to this house (which is actually nice).

Last night, however, I made a resolution.. I need two months before I'll be able to get out of here. I'm going for it, but I also accepted the challenge of bedding a girl in this bed here at this house. I'm a 29 yo man here, not just out of college. This really is a huge challenge. Any tips from anyone yo. I haven't gotten laid in two years and really need it. At one point my game was pretty good and I've actually transformed all the negative energy in not getting laid at the gym for the whole time I've been here, so I've probably got a better body than 95% of guys right now. Still, I went out last night and again, I could not pull anything for the life of me, gawddamit

Hey bro - I totally feel your pain. I was an architect and the job situation was always rocky. Last year about this time I found myself unemployed and lost my apt. I lived in my van for 4 months last summer. Finally when cold weather rolled around, I bit the bullet and moved back with my parents for 3 months. It was torturous, and I'm older than you are. They also lived in a very remote part of Maine that is hours from anything interesting.

I did not go out much when I was living with them but I did start taking a couple of classes at the university and started volunteering in the student life office. I was offered a job that gave me free tuition and a graduate apartment in the Portland area, meal plan, books, fees etc (but no money). Luckily i get a few freelance gigs here and there so I can keep some green in my pocket for gas and going out. Now I have a stable situation - all my expenses are paid for by a cool part time job doing research that I really like, and I have all the time I want to goof off. I make crap for money but I'm getting credentials in a new field, changing careers, doing some cool research, having fun, and most importantly - NOT SUFFERING during this protracted downturn.

I know not everyone can do what I did, but that's not the point. The key is just to get creative and look for opportunities that will improve your situation. If you tried to start a business, then you're a motivated guy and I'm sure you can think outside the box. Be willing to make some sacrifices in your lifestyle to get to where you want, even if that means getting a job in another place and couch surfing or something for a while.

Years ago when I first moved to Boston, I had no money so my first home down there was the youth hostel on Hemenway St. They let me clean the floors in exchange for a place to sleep at night. I got my first job (a crap job selling furniture and art supplies) before I had an apartment. But after I got a couple of paychecks I was able to move out of the hostel and move into a shared roommate situation. Then I got a temp office job at Harvard and made some more money, so I was able to move into a better apartment. And so it goes...

Studying pickup is going to be awesome for your confidence and for your business too (customers/employers seek confidence). Just recalibrate your expectations when it comes to girls and bedding them. You might not have the perfect situation, but that's OK - focus your game on girls who have their own apartments and live alone (no roommates). You might not be able to control all the variables, but you'll still have fun.
