Hello guys, so this is my first post. I have been lurking around into this forum for little over two years now. I have never posted anything during this time before because English is not my first language, and I used google translator to understand most of what I read. So I took an English course during this time and I can understand a lot better now. I apologize in advance for any grammatical errors, my writing is not perfect, but I’m still learning (feel free to correct me in this regard, I always welcome criticism that helps me grow).

A little bit of my background; I’m 28 years old, 6 ft., and athletic shape. I live in South America. I was very introverted and socially awkward growing up, and I was poor on top of that, so I had little to no luck with girls right until college.
I’ve my own business now, a retail store, for just over a year now, and it’s going good so far.
I found out about game and the PUA community when I was 23 or 24 years old, I’ve always been the type who reads a lot of material but takes no action (I own almost every product of every major company and PUGs out there). And just recently I actually started doing cold approaches and implementing some of the things I’ve learnt.

PherX was the first pheromone product I ever bought, because it was the highest rated at the Amazon store, but I had little to no success with it. After that I found out this forum and I’ve read almost every thread about every product I own. I bought products from LAL, PXS, Apex, and most recently Alpha Dream and Pheromone Treasures.

The first ones I tried were Aqua Vitae, Core, Taboo and Bliss, with samples of Imprint, Evolve and Xist (I lost a Primitive sample). In summary, AV couldn’t figure it out (I still have more than half bottle), I just couldn’t be congruent with the signature. Core I loved it, and from the above products it’s the only one I will buy again. Taboo was good, it’s an IOI machine, Bliss did nothing for me, and I actually had more success with the samples of Evolve and Xist. I‘ll go into more detail later, in the respective threads.

But the most important thing that I learned during that time is that I was looking for the magic pill to solve all my problems, but I've learnt that pheromones are no replacement for personality and I still had a lot of work to do with that. So I took a break from pheromones and PUA material for almost a year. And I was starting my business at that time, so I just focused on that.

Recently I made a new round of purchases and I bought L2K v.1, Captain, GOA, and The Hookup. And I’m having great success so far so I think I’m going to write some reviews later.
Well that would be it. I can’t wait till I can start reading the journals! Saludos.

Glad to see that you get it. Pheromones are not the solution to poor social skills. In fact, some pheromones can harm your chances of being with the right girl for you. You can easily end up in the friendzone by wearing the wrong formula.

Welcome. Your English reads great. I look forward to your posts.

I actually experienced much worse than that. When wearing AV as a dailywear for example, i had fights for no reason with longtime friends, people talking sh#t behind my back, and and a couple of overdoses i'll never forget, so i know that pheromones and social skills go hand in hand, and they not only can harm your relationships with girls, but with people you care about, if you're not carefull with what you are using, and how you're using it.

Snoppy is also someone I learned from too. A little side note about GOA; it may cause negative imprinting and can provide a similar experience which you had earlier with AV where friends/acquaintances talk behind their back.

Keep happy thoughts and continue improving!
