I've been living in the DC/DMV (DC, Maryland, and Virginia) area for about 3-4 years. I am 25 year sold, and haven't really got my feet wet in "The Game". I spoke to a friend, and he suggested I read the book "The Game" by Neil Strauss, and I was amazed. I haven't been studying the PUA game at all really. I've only read this book, and have since purchase the "Rules of the game" book. The only method I used was the ass pinch method. I went clubbing, walked by a girl lightly elbowing her. Then I said "Excuse me! Did you just grab my ass?". It worked like a charm. She smiled, and said "Why no I didn't but (Grabs my ass) I did now". Then we danced, she put her # in my phone, and we talked a bit. She's a little older than me, and prob only a 7...but it was my first time getting a # from a girl I didn't know by proxy (friends), or talk to before at all.

I've always been a nerd, but in a bears body. My dad put me in football when I was in Jr.High, but I didn't like it much. He thought just cause I was fat, and tall I could be a football player (6'3" 272 at my worse in 2006). He bought me my first computer when I was 12 or 13. A compaq presario, 200mhz, 32mb of ram, and a blazing 33.6kbps modem. I played so much god damn starcraft. I broke it trying to upgrade it, and then fixed it. From then on I was in love. Building, moding, upgrading, and maintaining computers was fun. Now I work in the IT field as an entry level desktop support/help desk tech. Still keeping it nerdy.

I have only had two girlfriends in my entire life. They both wanted to get engaged, but I wasn't ready to settle down. I've always wanted to bang out with my wang out, and get it out of my system. Sew my wild oats, and figure out what I REALLY want in terms of wifey material.

This is getting long, so bare with me.

I am the oldest child with a younger sister. My father was in the army, and met my mom while posted in Korea. I had a very dysfunctional family. I have seen my mom, and sister try to commit suicide in front of my eyes. My dad was an alcoholic, and will never quit. The biggest thing I remember in my child hood was crying when my mom was on the floor cause she od'd on sleeping pills, and my dad drunk saying "She just wants attention" and going back to bed. I was the mother, father, son, and shoulder to cry on in one. I never got to be normal, I was fat all throughout high school from a vicious cycle of eating my emotions. I found comfort in food, friends, and computer games. Fat, pizza faced, and nerdy was a bad combination. I didn't even know how to say hi to a girl, none the less ask her out. I didn't go to prom, and during lunch I'd stay in the library, and look at books. I stayed home until I was 21. I helped pay house bills to support the family. My father was always drunk, and giving me advice on what to do. It was always "JOIN THE MILITARY". I didn't want to join. He got drunk one night, and spieled his speech on joining the army. I said no, and he flipped. We got in a fist fight. That's when I packed my shit, and waited two weeks for the date to fly out to DC to live with my best friend. Since then I have never been happier. I've gone from 272 lbs to 240. Gained style, and confidence. However I'm still at that high school stage when it comes to women.

The biggest thing that drew me to this all was the comraderie/friendship/women. The book "The Game" was awesome. I liked how it not only helped you get women, but how everyone would gather and be excited about it. Post their field reports, sarge together, and help each other. It reminded me of the brother hood I had with my nerdy friends, getting together playing games online (Starcraft). Lan parties, and sharing each others frustration of not being with a girl.

Thanks for listening, looking forward to talking to everyone, getting help, and in the future giving out help.
