Hey guys. Ace here. New to the single life, new to the game. Just dropped 50 pounds but still have the confidence level of an overweight nerd. I read "The Game" and have watched both seasons of the "Pickup Artist" but feel my biggest help would actually be in the field. I freeze up in public a lot, but if i'm being held accountable I will HAVE to own up to applying the rules of the game.

SO....I live in Naples, FL (which is 2 hours south of tampa, and an hour & 45 min west of Ft. Lauderdale), and am looking for a PUA to sarge with. Just so I can observe you in the field, wing, pick up pointers, and then apply it myself. I'd be willing to travel as far north as Tampa and as far west as Boca or Miami as long as I'd have a place to crash.

Please help!

Ace you kick ass. I can see you've come a long way. I hope you can find a crew to sarge with, if not here than make your own lair locally.

Short of that, you can work on your skills alone. Ok? You dropped 50 ilbs? Fucking awesome. You're getting your shit together? Great.

Now just go out and work on new stuff. You say you freeze up in public? Cool, tackle that. Think about all the shit you've been through and the great guy you are. Keep a positive outlook and go out and practice. Hey, it doesn't have to be HB10 at clubs to start.

Get out there and start running that mouth. Turn the charm on. Put a smile on every bank teller and Burger King chick you find. Find girls at work, older ladies and learn to chit-chat. Work with men too. Learn to hold your own. Work on those social skills. Be aware of whats going on.

Hit the malls, hit on girls knowing you'll get creamed. Even try to get rejected. Come up with your worst line and keep on plugging. Get to the point that you don't care. Then you'll be ready for the next level.

You live a bit out of the way. SO you may have to do it on your own. But the material is there. Take advantage.

Good luck.

Hey Ace, I'm Andrew. I live in Orlando, maybe we can sarge together sometime. I'm very new to the game, I have very little experience. A friend and I just sarged for the first time this weekend, working on openers and getting comfortable approaching women. So, obviously, I wouldn't be someone you could learn from but we could learn together.

I'm still a student so traveling will be difficult but this summer should give us some opportunities I'd imagine. Let me know if you're interested because it would be great to have a crew to grow together.

I live about 3.5 hours southwest of Orlando, but I do have a number of friends that live there and go to UCF. I know for sure I will be there sometime this summer, and that sounds like an awesome idea.

E-mail me at AceBouchard@gmail.com and we'll keep in touch throughout the summer.
