Hey guys,

I thought a 'quick' -Edit: Ok it's quite a story but I hope you read it, maybe it can give you some inspiration to continue gaming- recap of 2009 for everyone would be a nice idea, sort of like a short summary of your year, successes, losses, 'failures' etc.

For me, I started the year 2009 as the biggest AFC with a huge case of one-itis, kissed her, but things didnt work out and I was devastated. Broke off all contact with her and that has done me well. I became friends with a natural in March, who doesnt know about the community. This guy just has to lean against the bar and chicks will flock to him. I got a few girls because of him, usually the friends of his targets. At least it was an ego boost!

Few months fast forward into the summer I accidentally stumbled across the Game and I thought I'd read some of it while chilling in the sun in my garden. I finished the book really quickly (I usually dont read) and stumbled across this forum after searching the webs for more books. I soon started to put the techniques and routines I got from the books/forum to use and I noticed things started to change.

An HB10 friend of a friend was the first target I had. I was out with a friend and I wanted to show him what the book was all about, he watched me play the field like i've never done before and he was impressed. A month later she became my girlfriend. It ended after 2,5 months because I wasnt experienced with relationships, but I feel that i've learned a couple of valuable lessons from it. Even when we were still together I was still scoring numbers from girls and I haven't been lonely for a day after we broke up. Now that I have become so much more confident, I don't even need to use routines anymore, I just go up to women and say something cheesy like "hey i come to this bar 4 nights a week but i've never seen you before" and I introduce myself, I haven't been shot down, not once. I got a shitload of numbers, countless day 2's and more lays in 2 months than I've gotten in my ENTIRE LIFE.

I radiate confidence, and my social-status/proof is off the fucking charts, but most importantly, I've learned to love life, and myself. Pick-up has helped me so much in all aspects of my life and I am very, very grateful. Everyone keeps telling me how much I've changed (for the better) and what a great person I am. My successes and these confirmations of me being a better man make me feel better and better. I've become someone who loves social interactions, with men and women alike. I've opened up so much, this is what makes me feel good.

My 2010 will be what the last 4 months of my 2009 have been. Happy.

How was your 2009? Tell me about it!

Since you asked....

My 2009 was my second going on my third year in the community. I started the year still in a relationship with this girl. Even though I was committed in that relationship I still worked on the forum and my local lair to help guys improve. As a matter of fact she went out with us a lot to help.

I was still running my business NashvilleDatingCoach.com amongst some other things. I started planning my $20 workshop for the local guys around here. Around March the relationship fell apart when she gradudated the local college and got a job offer in her hometown in Ohio. We parted on good terms.

A month later I did the $20 Dating Stimulus Workshop for several students who came out on the Vanderbilt College Campus. That was awesome for me in a lot of ways to be able to field questions like that and teach a all day long workshop was challenging to say the least. There is a lot of planning and preperation for those things and my hats off to the mPUAs that do it daily or weekly.

From there I took a break from the community and dating to get a grip on my life. I was confident with me and other things but I needed to get back to being a person and having a life outside of PUA. I was way too involved.

When I came back to the community in August I think after some of the moderators messaged me for assistance it was good to be back. My perspectives on life and relationships have seriously changed. I still associate myself with the local lair from time to time assisting them infield.

I got back into the Online Dating thing again big time and pulled several times that way. I still go out but not near as often as I use to go do night game. I don't have the need. I meet a girl I date her for a while typically sometimes have a girlfriend and then when that's over...I'm back out.

Oh yeah, I picked up a new hobby, got to go to Vegas and several other places to play poker this year and did well with that. Managed to get to Florida once for another vacation. I feel very fortunate.

Anyways...this video somes things up nicely.
