Wow... Here I am, writing a post about why I'm joining the PUA community... Nice to meet you guys... My name's is Daniel, I'm a 23 year-old AFC from Paris, France.

I've been in a serious relationship with a girl I truely appreciated for two years but she broke up a few weeks ago. Actually, she went to the USA to get a MBA in late August. 5/6 weeks later, she sent me a damn e-mail saying that she did not have enough feelings for me to live a long distance relationship. I was sad, but not so much... I truely like her but never really loved her. So that was not a problem at all... I was not really happy about that relation... I've never had the attention I deserved but we had some really good times.

Yet, I've learned that she's been seeing the f**king 29 year-old guy. She has not cheated on me, and since she left me, she's free to see somebody else... but you know what? F**k that. I'm f**king tired of being on that side, tired to be the nice guy...

I've already realized that being the nice guy was not a solution. That's how I actually got her... But little by little, I ended up in a LTR like an amateur. Don't get me wrong, I was happy to be with her... but I had several reasons to leave her but I've never done it: I avoided conflict. We never talked about her going studying one year abroad... She did not even give me a proper good-bye. And now, I'm beeing needy with her... I don't even understand why. I've sent an e-mail asking her if I can call her to have some news.

Since it's over, I've started to read some PUA stuff as Paul Janka's Attraction Code, Neil Strauss' Game, ... to understand what happened. Now I know... As I was developping feelings for her, my value decreased and became less attractive... I was trying to make her happy and I was wrong. I should have been focusing on me, on my value. In addition, I should not have been needy...but it's too late.

Now, I'm leaving France in February to study one semester in Brazil. I want to be ready for the Game. So if you guys have some pieces of advice about my situation (what to say to my ex-gf? how to get back on my feet? how to prepare for Brazil?) I'm listening!

Cheers.
