What's going on? So I read this post earlier today that was about how you should make sure you have your finances and overall life in order before you start focusing on game. In the comments section one of the guys stated how you should go into this "cocoon mode" and pretty much avoid the distractions of game and the pointless bullshit in your life, and and work on yourself for a few months. You know learn a skill, lift weights. That kind of thing. I think my experience going out to the club tonight really made me feel like this was the best thing to do.

  • brief backstory on tonight* I went to an edm type club with some friends. One guy who likes to drink and my lesbian friend. So it doesn't start off bad but things start to happen that irke me and make it hard for me to relax. For one I don't like taking care of drunk people. Just not my thing so I left him to have fun, checking on him every now and again to make sure he's not fighting. Then my lesbian friend is pretty much afraid of talking to any girls there even after I introduce her (she gets mad at me when I do this). Now this wouldn't bother if she wouldn't have stated she would before we go in. So now I have a drunk and a timid lesbian I have to babysit.

After tonight I really feel like I need a break. This is the perfect time to go cocoon mode. Before I do this, I want to make sure I do it right. I'm not trying to go out and burn so many bridges that I'm stuck out in no man's land you know.

So how do you guys think I should go about doing this? I don't want to just go ice cold on my friends and just not speak. But I need for them to know that unless they are trying to get better with me then I can't be around them.

As always any advice is welcome. Thanks
