Hey Guys,
I'm the Pretender from Montreal. I'm 35, divorced with shared custody of a young kid.
I'm a professional photographer, I do actors/actresses/model portfolios and event photography in night clubs/raves.
Last summer, to get over my anxiety of the approach, I went in the streets of Montreal and approached close to 300 people, whether I had my camera or not, using the 3 second approach. I met great people, guys and gals and developed friendship. It has helped grow an excellent reputation as a photographer.
I tend to send 2 distinct vibes, the "friendly" one and a nearly "hypnotic" one who made half the girls I dated say that they don't usually do that.
I have a strong preference to online dating as I am very picky and am very good with words (text messages and emails and chat).
I'm not looking to get laid, I'm way too busy to sarge as much as some of you can, and I don't even have time to call back all the girls I meet.
However, I am not looking at a serious relationship, I have a GREAT life (travelling to NYC, SF, going to all the clubs VIP), with a great son and I don't need a new wife, I want casual relationships with girls who look for the same (can't seem to find that kind in my life though because as soon as they learn I'm a responsible parent, I'm seen as a potential provider).
I think what's missing in my game is the ability to open sets and communicate clearly that I am looking for casual relationships (not one night stands). I'm ok with the openers and would be able to share mine as a photographer.
What I don't want is use lies like saying to come to my place for a shoot, my integrity as a photographer is priceless and I don't pursue.
To finished, since I worked on my inner game, I'd say I went from dating and being around 6-7.5 to 7.5-9.
I guess I might be looking for someone in Montreal who'd like to be my wingman... and also to share and comment on a few nice techniques I've used approaching women
