I've come to you guys tonight because I can't stand it anymore. I've stepped out of lurk-mode. I need help because I can't stand the monotony of my weekend adventures. I can't stand not being in a relationship. I can't stand getting zero results anymore.

I am a mid-20s yuppie, with cash in my wallet, passions and hobbies, an education, an exciting background, and relatively good looks (thanks to the help of r/MFA). I've also had steady relationships since middle school to late college. Hell, I've even had some sexual adventures. I have no reason to complain. I am really lucky, and I am appreciative of my life.

But, lately, ever since I've been out of college and in a bigger pool, my results have been piss poor. I do the same thing every other day. I go out, I talk to a couple girls, chat it up a bit, create some comfort, maybe get a number--and then nothing.

Nowadays, I even have the luxury of a wing man. It's one of my best friends that has decided to start his journey. We're both relatively in the same stories, but we have slightly different strengths/weaknesses.

Here's the problem: Despite knowing about seduction for quite some time now, I still have relatively weak skills. I cannot game. I have been a lucky dude that has gotten girls because of friends-of-friends or organizations I was a part of in college/high-school. In retrospect, none of it was because of any explicit tactics or understanding of how to get women. And, when I think about it further I realize I lack an ability to escalate.

But, it's worse. I've read "The Game", back in 2006 no less. I've read the side bar. I've watched videos. I've watched the Pick-up Artist. I've been to pick-up gatherings. I have the basic knowledge. But, today, with the minuscule knowledge I do have about seduction, my wingman and I go out, do the same shit, and (I think I speak for myself when I say this) have no results to be proud of. I've made New Year's resolutions, and I've pushed myself. But, I haven't gotten laid in a long time. It's the same weak field report.

This weekend was the straw that broke the camel's back. I've hit rock bottom. I want something to happen. I'm ready to take it to the next level, but I don't know what to do. Make more goals? Start from the beginning? Go to bootcamp (that was actually discussed this weekend between me and my buddy)? I do know that I do well when I am being held accountable, and this is one thing that I wanted to propose to you guys. Is there a way I can be held liable to seddit's community, as a whole? Having someone ensure your success is one of the only things that's helped me the past.

I am tired of going out and seeing beautiful girls whose lives I haven't entered into. I'm tired of having a great network of guy friends (although, it is nice) but no girls. I'm tired of not having a woman to share my life with. I'm tired of being sexless. This is one mountain, one obstacle in my life that I need to conquer.

I know that this is only a snippet of the broader picture of my situation, but I figure you guys could point me in the right direction, even with little information. What actions do I need to take? Does any of this resonate? Does it make sense?

Thanks for reading.
