So I've been in pickup for almost two years now. It's changed my life to put it simply. However, I cannot decide if it's been for the better or for the worst. Basically, I'm throughout the time I've been doing it, I've become a lot more socially bolder, as well as sexually when I'm on a date with a girl. However, I've been on a longgggg dry spell, having broken up with my ex girlfriend roughly around the same time as I picked up pickup lol. Throughout that time frame of being in the game, I've only gotten laid 1 time along with 3 LMR's, but tons of make outs and I'd say around 15 dates off the top of my head. I'm trying to understand what I'm doing wrong, because I've read tons of self development books, listening to tons of self development videos, including inset videos about pua. Lately I've been mostly feeling very anxious, I oscillate between depression and joy...I feel like it's my dry spell making me go crazy. I feel as though med school is getting in the way of me getting better and am very tempted to quit, get a job as a personal trainer or something, raise some money, and do boot camps. I also got into my christian roots and felt extremely happy, but then I see a beautiful girl and I'm reminded that I'm alone. I know it sounds corny -but it hurts. I'm not a weird dude, I've been told I'm good looking, and because of that, I get told that I'm trying too hard. Which I now feel like I'm doing. Any suggestions on how to get out of this rut or what's keeping me in it?

Thank you

-Thesius

"I feel as though med school is getting in the way of me getting better and am very tempted to quit"

Buddy where all tempted to quit Med school,everyday I wake up I want to quit med school.... PUA is a hobby/lifestyle, Education is social proff, finish school+ Get a job= The Fu***** Man. Get it?.

"I'm reminded that I'm alone"

Everyone is alone...sorry friend. But, every curse is also a blessing.
The very fact that you can move independently is a great power. Do not look to women or other people for validation...this leads to overthinking,needyness,depression,desperation, the list goes on .


The Cure-

I'm no doctor but I am a nurse, follow this prescription and you'll be on your way to not only to getting what you NEED but what you want as well....

1) A challenge- find something outside of women that scares you,or is difficult, and dominate it!. This will give you your balls back,then you can do whatever you want .

2) consistency- Improve every day,grow learn compete and stay in the game. We all love a challenger man. The fact that your going out on dates shows that your willing and able.

3) Consult the Compass- If you have any issues,questions or concerns. Please ask, and I'll point you in the right direction.



Sincerely,Compass
