I frequented TRP several times these past few months, and decide I'm ready to make a change and say fuck the bullshit. I'm tired of living like this. I'm 25 years old, over the years I became somewhat of a hermit do to substance abuse and kinda lost of social life, and I feel as if all my social skills dissipated. I'm 25 years old, never been in a serious relationship, and now I find myself having a very, very hard time talking to females. I haven't banged a chick in 4 years, since community college, so my lack of sexual experience doesn't help at all. I can feel my self esteem, self confidence, resilience declining and I don't like it. I need to get out of my head.

Anyway, instead of getting into too much detail - I've been really trying to manifest a change and this week is when I am starting to put it back into action. I'm really looking just for any words of advice, help, suggestions, on what else to do and where to start? As ridiculous as it sounds, I feel like all of this has left me with a Fear of Intimacy.

Someone told me TRP and lifting weights/cardio/diet everyday are the two main things you NEED to be doing if you want to be successful with females. I am about to re-activate my gym membership again tomorrow, buying a new road bike this week, frequenting TRP, changing my diet (what to cut out of my diet and what to eat?) and doing no fap - today is day 1. I plan to learn a lot and gain a lot from from this.

What other stuff can I do in order to become successful and be the man I aspire to be?
