Hi, this is not a question, but rather a recent realisation.
I am 18 year old, Senior, and the story began 4 years ago when I first joined this highschool.
The size of the school is very small because the country itself is tiny. There are no more than 40 people per grade. There were Group A, Group B, and Group C.
Group A is more like AFC group, in which people were not good with women and only got lucky sometimes. There were only boys in this group. Until the grade 10, this group went well with other groups but from grade 11, there was a separation and isolation.
Group B is consisted of so called 'cool kids' who are fairly rich, sociable, funny and good with women. This group has always been close to the Group C. Although they all are 'party animals' their grade is as great as nerdy kids in school.
Group C is basically where most girls are in; of course, there are some separations in this group of sorta 'hot girls' vs 'nerdy ones'. But I would classify these into one.
I have always been an AFC in Group A. I did not know anything about PUA until a month ago; therefore, I did not feel any necessity and importance of being in a certain social circle, thus I just relaxed only within group A for three years.
Being in the Group A, I naturally adopted AFC characteristics of being not funny, not good with women, being indifferent to myself; fashion, self-image...etc. And it is just three weeks ago that I realised being in this group was the root of the whole problems. Girls thought I was a loser, and I have never gotten with any hot girl. Just being in the group was my DLV.
Now, 2013, senior year, group A consists of only 4 people hanging out with 'nerdy girls' in Group C. I have made a gradual escape from the group, and now I have naturally fitted myself into the group B.
After joining the group B, I felt obliged to give myself a drastic transformation; I got my hair done -Nick Wooster's hair if you wonder -, spent hundreds on wardrobe and read tons of self development books.
Apart from those alterations, shift of social circle DHVed me greatly; I've gotten with 5 girls already in just two weeks of time (I am sure some of you guys are much better at this, but I am new to this game, so please, bare with me haha) and recently, one of the hottest girls in school said yes happily for my Prom date request.
Not only did shifting social circle DHVed me towards girls, but also it helped me to bring out my potential; I've never thought I could be this outgoing and sociable ever in my life. I've also picked up naturally good body languages and conversational skills.
The purpose of this is, by all means, not that you should get rid of your old buddies, but to convey the importance of being sociable with outgoing circles, for they will help you with many things. You will see how much you have come if you look back..
Thank you for reading this! and please acknowledge that I haven't been long in this game, and I am NOT GOOD yet at this...but this is just what I have started to notice since I've started this journey.
Cheers
