| Hi, guys!
I would like to say hello and give a little background on myself, as I'm just starting my Game.
So... I'm almost 24 by now, live in Poland, average physics and IT student. I've been in a 4-year relationship, broke up 1,5 year ago. Many mistakes made in that time, but also many lessons learned. I used to be "too nice", allowed my GF to take the lead and become something like a little puppy to her. You know - this oneitis stuff, first GF, etc. Kinda frustrating thing after some time. I found the nerves to end this and spent few months getting back to social life and dealing with my own unpleasant emotions. But at the same time I was proud of myself, that I had enough strength to end this relationship. It gave me this feeling, that I'm not such a pathetic guy after all and can deal with my own problems. That's a damn nice feeling.
So, several months later I tried to reestablish contact with a girl that I used to work with for some time, HB9.5. I tried my standard AFC & nice-guy pickup methods (didn't know about the PU-community yet) and, as you may have guessed, it ended with LJBF response. Another frustrating experience, despite my in-deep feeling that it wouldn't be a good relationship after all. Got over it, said to myself "whatever, she's not the only HB in this country", become friends with her. And it's ok that way.
Now, to the point... I've been reading/watching/listening many different PUA materials (started with "The Game" ofc.) for last three weeks, trying to get some theoretical basics before aplying them in practice. Started my inner-game. It already gave me some self-confidence, but I'm still having some AA. Hope to get over it fast. I've found massive amounts of info on this forum and decided to join your not-so-little community. For now, as a part of my anti-AA struggle I try to make my mind to create openers and mid-game discussion topics spontanously and at hand so I wouldn't need all this canned material. I think it's a best way to become natural, along with overcoming all my fears. I hope to find some help here doing this.
New year, new possibilities, new me.
Cheers!
