I’m being forced into the single realm after 5 years and was looking for something different to give me some extra help.
After some basic reading here, I bought (and just put on) Instant Openness and Turn Up the Heat.
I’m going to have to test to see how it works over more than just day 1, but it’s a pleasant smell that’s pretty relaxing. I haven’t been around too many women here at work, but one was pretty flirty so far.
Forgive these questions that have probably been asked, but I didn’t find them anywhere when I looked last night:
Anyone know how well this stuff works in smokey environments or places where food is served?
Also, is it better to put on the body or on my clothes?
Welcome to the forum, wilks! Give us a little more information and we can help you figure out what will work best for you. How old are you? Where are you planning to use the pheros? Any specific targets?
Because pheromones work through a chemical system (the VNO) related to but different from the sense of smell, a smokey environment, or the presence of food shouldn’t affect the effect of the pheromones. In fact, certain mixes work better in bars and clubs, simply because they are designed with pick-ups in mind.
It’s almost always better to apply directly to your skin. Your body heat increases dispersion and allows the pheromones to mix with your own oils and pheromones. Don’t worry about asking questions. Most people are uncertain about things at first, and haven’t gotten the hang of the search function (I haven’t…) and almost everyone here is willing to lend a hand and help you out.
Oh, I’m not sure where you work, but Turn Up the Heat generally isn’t recommended for work settings. It’s the kind of thing you wear when you’re in a club or want to add spice to a night with someone you already plan on being intimate with. Instant Openness is good in nearly any setting, including work. Of course, that’s more of a guideline than a rule, and if it works for you, don’t hesitate!
I work in a place that is 80% female, so yeah, I know Heat isn’t recommended, but I wanted to have some fun.
I’m 28, and just got out of a relationship with someone who wasn’t sure if she was attracted to me anymore. I’m convinced it’s stress from outside the relationship (work stress, my father is dying) that is distancing us, so I think it can be fixable. (Not to brag, but I’m also good looking, fit, own my own house, decent job, witty, and romantic.) Most people tell me I’ll find someone in no time, but that’s not what I wanted. I was looking for a boost when I’m around her to see if I can kickstart her heart again. There were better combos listed in an ex g/f thread, but given that she’s not comfortable around me right now, it seemed to fit best. This combo also seemed to be it’s own backup: If she really is lost, then at least I have a combo that seems to work well for meeting new people.
It also did a pretty good job relaxing me today, but we’ll see what the effect is when I go out tonight. I’m not dressed to impress, so maybe it’s a good litmus test.
Further comments/thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Well, you’ll probably be OK at work if you are sparing with the TUTH - 1 spray or even 2 if you think you can get away with it. It depends on your personality and how well you can offset any awkward reactions you may get by the way you speak and act. But do buffer it with liberal sprays of IO, that will help! 80% female, eh? Awesome!
The ex g/f thing: It won’t do any harm for her to see that other girls are showing an interest in you. It’s just one of those things, that psychologists call “social proof” but that everyone instinctively knows at school, although we sometimes forget about it as we become “sophisticated” adults who are “above” game-playing.
Well, first night wasn’t what I would call a success, but it’s going to be hard to separate that which I did right/wrong with what the product did right/wrong.
I started by flirting with the waitress. Exclusive eye contact, small flirty jokes, nice guy attitude…I seemed to get her attention for a small while, then she went back into work mode and I couldn’t get her to respond.
Then when a second cute girl showed up (a friend of a friend) the waitress started getting a little more playful and showing up more. I dunno: could have been a jealousy thing, could have been the product. I was wearing 2 shots of IO, 1 of TITH. The friend that showed up I had just met, so she was responsive at first until I say some dumb things (overworking it) and she didn’t start responding again until the end of the night, when we she started talking to me about her last big relationship 7 months ago. Again, I don’t know if that was IO working or me, since I tend to already bring that out in people already.
When we left the bar, I wasn’t ready for bed yet. I invited my other friend (not new girl) back to my place to watch a movie. I remember her saying at 12 in my driveway, “I don’t know why I’m doing this.”
We cuddled up next to each other and I proceeded to pass out, and I barely remember her waking me up to say she was leaving.
