I have been feeling blah lately...haven't really had the motivation I had the last few months to chase and capitalize on opportunities. For example, last night it was a slow night at bar and I was just chilling there with my buddy who just broke up with his girlfriend. He knows what I can do but I either pussied out or I just didn't feel like opening a three set. The bar was dead but it was obvious the other guys there were too scared of doing it. I didn't feel like putting on a show and I just didn't feel that desire that I usually feel to open and not give a shit. Basically, I am feeling AFC for no reason.

From my perspective it looks like you didn't want to open the set -because as usual, when it's just you going out, you don't give a fuck how it goes. But this time since your friend was there, you might have been thinking in the back of your mind "fuck if I blow it my friend will laugh at me. I won't be that awesome pua dude anymore that he sees me to be" etc." which might of fueled your reasoning for not approaching.

That thought did cross my mind. What to do then?

What I have done that works for me, is every day when I wake up I take a normal shower (bear with me on this), and as soon as I'm done, I put the shower to the coldest setting and let that hit me for about a minute. Just let that cold shower hit you.
What this does is this basically get's you out of that comfort zone. So the next time when you get in your head thinking "fuck I could get rejected, fuck, blah blah" just remember and anchor yourself to that shower in the morning: "You know what, I just got fucking hit with ice cold water this morning. I can do anything. WHATEVER HAPPENS I'LL BE FINE"

It could be Testosterone levels.. Consistent drinking does kill the T levels, being over sexed, etc.

Nothing comes from nothing.

It happens to me too, and I know theres a reason for it. No biggy though.

I made some smart stupid investments these past few months. Smart because I wanted the shit I got and stupid because it put me on a financial edge.

Had to give up gym and proper nutrition this past month as a consequence. Haven't been feeling top of my game as a result.

Point it, your career, your nutrition, your habits, everything affects your sex drive to some extent.

oversexed?

I am addressing the drinking. Been causing more harm than good lately...but too much sex? I thought it was the opposite.


I have been striking out even when some girls hand themselves to me...I say weird shit and i lose the lead. It's weird, maybe i need a timeout for a few days...but the weekend is coming up...we will see..
