5 months ago, I was that sad lad who let life pass him by. It was 5 years since I had a date (homecoming still counts as a date). I didn't party at all and my life consisted of studying, watching movies, and sleeping. Then I decided to make a change. I decided I would start approaching girls. I found multiple sources online on how to do that. They helped get started. I then started approaching at stores and expanded my knowledge. It was an encouraging start (I got my first number on first attempt) since I was already experience in talking to women (I have a sister and hungout with mostly girls in high school). But nonetheless it was hard going out everyday to the store to meet women. My friend introduced me into the art of pickup. Pickup helped me be confident and know that I wasn't alone. I started going to bars and I spent everyday challenging myself to approach. I got good results everywhere I went. I made good friends. I danced with beautiful women and even got a number on my first attempt at trying to in a bar. Now I'm more confident and I got my first date with a beautiful woman. Seduction truly improved my life. I started reading forums and expanding my knowledge through videos. I still have a lot to learn but so far the journey has left me better than when I started.
