Hello to you all.

I've been aware of the PUA scene for a few weeks now. I found it by accident, whilst running thoughts through my brain and taking stock of my current women-free situation (playing xbox 360 I think) and all of a sudden a Google search string entered my head, and introduced me to the world of PUA! Fate?

Since then I've bought The Game, and Gambler's book. I have yet to finish them both, but my brain is switched on to this stuff at the very least!

OK so some brief background then I'm done. I'm 24 and from England, I have been in a long term relationship (around 2 years long) before so do have some experience, but that girl is about the only one I've got experience with. That was around a year ago and I've had no action since!

I'm overweight and could do with losing around 14lbs. I think I'll only be fully confident in club type situations when I've done that, however I will remain open to opportunities!

I must admit I find keeping my alcohol intake at a sensible level when out clubbing quite hard. Something to work on.

Anyway, any advice, pointers or potential mentors - I would be glad to hear it all.

I'll leave you with this thought, taken from the song my thread title is based on:

"And you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone"..
