To coin a phrase used in radio shows:

"Long time listener, first time caller."

Have been interested in the theories of pick up, the game and NLP in the standard way following the release of the famous book by Neil Strauss, 'The Game.'

Went through a phase of obtaining a lot of what I could online in terms of the material. Videos, audio sessions, etc, etc.

Then I stopped because I realised that to simply be an information junky achieves nothing if you don't have the cajones to put it into practice. I subsequently lost interest for months.

But then I just so happened to see the 'Pickup Artist' series on TV. Mystery's show (with Matador & J-dog) and for some reason I am back.

Anyway, I am from Newcastle upon Tyne in England and I am 27. WBAFC who's not that bad looking but for some reason has always played the role of disaffected, passive aggressive Mr Spock-like observer.

It's effed, folks. Pretty damn effed.
