Hello
So I live in London and I'm 30 although I am regularly considered to be 26 or younger (even after growing an impressive but trim beard).
I got into "the game" after doing some internet searches for tips on flirting, found a web article that mentioned Style's book, bought it, started reading it, typed PUA into Google and bang here I am. I've been trying out things from the game and websites for two weeks now. So far I've attracted more attention from girls, and already got a number close from a hot girl (half brazilian half italian). It's made me feel more in control and also, importantly much less soul destroyed afterwards if I'm unsuccessful.
My short term goal is to stop ending up in the friend zone. I'm a friendly, interesting, funny and passionate person with lots of depth who has no problem approaching women. Sadly, I sometimes just come accross as too "nice"; I'm often too open and gracious which means I hand over the initiative to her before even getting a kiss or number. I also need to become more confident with initiating kino because (now after what I've read and a lot of painful hindsight) I do get IOIs from girls but leave it too late.
I suppose my long tem goal is to find a really fantastic girl to spend the rest of my life with but I want to choose her and I want to be her first choice. The last thing I want to be is someone that's been settled for. However, I also want to have had some fun first so I'm not curious anymore and can hopefully avoid a midlife crisis (if that's possible).
