Hi everyone hows it going? I've been lurking the forums for quite a while meaning to sign up and really kickstart this journey but i've been holding out so long and finally decided to come clean.
Well to put it short, I am a 19 year old virgin (have had my chances, but still not too proud of that) residing in San Diego who just finished his first year as a college freshmen (rarely attending any parties J:)

Anyways where to start? I don't want to make this too long so i'm going to make it rather brief. I've only been in three relationships, not even that long or serious. I've "talked" with a few others but never actually took it the distance (particularly from me getting "buyer's remorse" towards them.) I've always wanted to be popular with the ladies but pretty sure I haven't been taking the right steps/measures to get there (i guess you could label me a late bloomer). I'm often considered a funny and attractive guy (am told this friends) but I feel i've lost my funny touch through the years and bit of insecurity (feel stupid when they don't laugh, sometimes a bit too shy about speaking up.) Nevertheless I'm left scratching my head as to why I don't have the charm on women that I wish I had and other people think I have. I'm not as confident as I should be about I do get strides depending on my mood/style/compliments.

I consider myself to be in a growing stage(building an attractive lifestyle) right now so i'm not at my best but I want to flourish along the way in hopes of becoming the man i've always wanted to be. Right now I work a part time job 3-4 days a week varied hours at an insurance place(with lots of down time) since last year and signed up for a gym membership as of december after a couple of (been hitting it moderately with no supplements. SLOW RESULTS!!) recently started taking yoga classes, attempting to straighten my posture. I haven't cut my hair in almost a year now, i can make it look good, but some days it just doesn't cooperate. (first for me, kinda want to see how that goes) and i'm not too happy about my voice (hate the way it sounds when listening to it) or my stature (5'7ish)but I have high hopes of improving it to around 5'9 after my posture (been slouching over computers for years!!!)

So anyways thats where I stand as of now. I have a variety of friends, but I'm in the process of incorporating new ones(hopefully) as the majority of the ones I've been opting to hang out with lately are OK with their weekends consisting of simply chilling at a friends house toking up and playing video games and rarely want to go out/even spend money(it was OK for a while, i'm over it now, I want to get out and enjoy all this worlds got to give, not be surrounded by more AFCs.) I'm still maturing (barely starting to see how i can pull off an attractive light scruff beard and long hair)

Anyways I've always taken a sensitive and passive approach towards women (usually they show major interest and I confirm their attraction towards me through their friends) but I tend to fall for all the shit tests and I downplay all the signs they give me, often resulting in me not making a move.

Anyways in SUMMARY: I am tired of being a miserable AFC and hanging out with other AFCs who are only holding me back. My goal is not exactly to cash in every woman I meet, but to flourish as a person, most importantly, as a man(alpha?) I want to meet other party people who I can have fun with consistently and hang out with as well as meet new friends, all while acquiring the skillsets needed to carry entertaining/enlightening conversations and seduce that hot chick at the club/bar or the sexy lady I always see walking to class or any classmate of mine or that random intriguing girl at the mall/corner store or even strippers! Although I am not of legal to attend a club/bar here in the states, I count with the option of being able to go down to Tijuana, Mexico to the clubs/bars some of which where I have connections(best table etc) I read/write/speak both English and Spanish and being able to implement a PUA Skillset in both languages/countries effectively is definitely in my best interest! Along with attempting to get rid of my v-card ASAP (at this point I often get frustated for not having success!!!!

I was first introduced to these forums by miserable google searches of how to take the next step and what not. Upon some quick reads, I got my hands on various books and even viciously read past a few pages of Mystery's The Game, to which I put a halt on, realizing how dated it was and how most of his situations included bar/club situations. Though I did start picking up on the terms/some helpful information. I figured maybe you guys could recommend me a better starting point (I have been reading through these forums extensively) or just offer any advice which I will gladly accept. Anything from how to say hi to bye to any woman in any situation (random, introduced by a friend, family event) etc! Thanks a lot and in advance and I look forward to learning a lot from you guys and sticking around for quite some time.[/u]
