Hey, I've visited this forum every now and then as a guest and I thought it was about time I registered and got more involved.

A little background for you, I'm 20 and have been interested in this stuff for a few years now. Stumbled upon the Pick up artist while watching tv one night. Never been much of a ladys man, having always been a shorty which stunted my confidence at school. But since then I've really come out of my shell. I now live a great life, and somehow find myself surrounded by awesome interesting people for the most part. Always been into self improvement so discovering pick up has been brilliant for me.

The first night I went out after reading about some of the basic concepts out there I managed to end what seemed like an eternity without a girlfriend. She was a 8 or so at the time (by my standards then) and I was very pleased with myself. I ended it after a few months having never sealed the deal :O she was young and nervous.. so was I, and so things never progressed sexually beyond heavy make outs. I had another girl lined up. But when the time came to jump ship things didn't work so simply. So I found myself alone for a while.

It was during this time that I re-discovered the community and decided to not settle for the first girl that fell into my lap.
That was two years ago and I have since had two summers worth of progress under my belt.

This last summer I really immersed myself in this whole thing. Going out with my friends every night, I got out of my head and had some brilliant experiences. These included but were certainly not limited to picking up a relatively hot 24 year old, finding myself in a month long relationship with notorious party girl and using/relying on the the pre selection from the other girls to fool around with a very desirable 21 year old bartender in our town, easily a 9 by looks alone but also a sound girl.

I've also had my share of frustrations, plateaus, dry spells.. but overall I feel this has hugely benefited my life and will continue this journey until I reach the lifestyle I feel I deserve.

Thanks for reading, I hope you guys can help me out and I hope to help others who face similar problems that I have now overcome.
