Confessions of an AFC
This is my take on improving ones self to rise above AFC status. I still consider myself an AFC. None of this is to be taken as a way to do it just my opinion on this topic, also I am not trying to advertise for outside companies.
This is from a Growing AFC to fellow AFCs.
Background history
First of I cannot remember anything past the age of 12, and more of my youth 12-15 is a haze, thanks to a few too many concussions in MMA. But that shouldn’t matter much.
So I’ll start off in middle school, it was rough; I did not have a good social life and not many friends. I will admit it I was the kid who would play pokemon cards with the other losers then go out and be social. Why? I do not know, but I regret it. My friends consisted of the goofy tall kid, fat round one, skinny weak one, and me the short one. I was also beginning to get introduced to the world of video games, the greatest pit trap ever.
By high school I was an avid player of an MMORPG, which shall not be named because it ruined my life. I hung out with friends from school, outside of school, maybe once every month or two. I did not play sports, nor did I have girl friends, besides my hands. (lol) By end of junior year I would say I was quite upset with my life and the way things were going. Senior year was not much better, until the end. I stopped playing all video games, at the beginning of the school year, went to more social gatherings and events, never a party :/. By the end of the year somehow I managed to get myself a cute little Philippina, by no means was she sexy, but she was neither ugly nor fat, she was cute. We broke up after 3 months.
Post high school, I’ve had a few girl friends nothing like I wanted, none of them were ugly but it wasn’t what I wanted! But things began looking better I read some material and would practice it on any female I saw, old, young, pregnant, 3 kids, one legged… And to my liking my “game” got better.
What I did.
1.Video games must go!
Ok not all, but mainly ones like World of Warcraft (I have yet to play) one of the most addicting games imo.
The idea of playing video games is not logical,
1.They deprive you of social growth
2.They consume all your time
3.Many games cost monthly fees like $15 a month and cost 50 dollars for the game + expansions.
4.If you find yourself spending more time playing games the interacting with people PLEASE just disconnect your game console, uninstall from your computer, and hide them!
5.
2.The internet
Do not be too busy posting on the internet to try show you’re the man, and help other people, it is good to help, and please help them! But it is an easy thing to get sucked into. Manage your online time and do not allow yourself to get sucked into it.
A great example is my brother, he knows MM better than anyone else I know, he posts on line all the time to help people, he even helps me! The stuff he says and tells people to do is amazing and it works to pick up girls, but he is a 21 year old virgin never had a girl friend, he got sucked into it and part of the reason I’m buying pheros is to help him out also, and make it easier on him.
3.Read
I would recommend every AFC to read the Mystery Method book and Neil Strauss: The Rules of the Game.
If you read them a million times and still have no luck with women then STOP READING! You are wasting your time sitting in your house isolated from society reading. You already know the books front cover to back. Go out and use what you read. It will not come easy, but will be rewarding. (This was one of my issues).
4.Practice!
This is the one I would have to stress the most, the one I DID the least. The only way an AFC will grow is to go out in society and practice, who cares what people think of you? (we all care but it is our enemy).
If you go out and fail to open a set you are not failing, you are gaining the knowledge you need to do it right next time.
It is better to fail 20 times then to not try at all.
Practice on every girl you see, ugly, beautifully, old, or young. If you cannot say these things to a 4, how do you think you’ll pull it off on a 7?
Do not worry if you get turned down, they probably won’t remember who you were or what you wanted, it is not important to them or you. Do you remember what the person wanted 3 days ago when you said no thanks? I don’t.
Self story about practice
This is not bragging this is just my experience, so I practice all summer and freshmen year of college on all sorts of women, I go back home for the weekend because my buddy is back in town and what do we do? Go to the strip club, so I shave nice and neat, side burns mid ear, hair on my chin only. Were enjoying the show and then a dancer comes over to me and tries get me to get a lap dance. I don’t know what happened to me just MM(mystery method) started pouring out of my mouth well long story short ended up getting free lap dance and her phone number, we hooked up the next day. Which leads me to my next topic
Grooming
Groom yourself well, if you are going to have facial hair maintain it well, I rocked the long side burns that go down around chin for a while I like it, if you can pull it off do it, if not don’t.
Keep your hair maintained; make sure it looks like it is supposed to be a style, not just some crap on your head to keep you warm in the winter. Your hair is your choice but use it to your advantage.
Finger nails and toe nails…CLIP THEM! It is gross and huge turn off to have long nails.
Pluck hair in between eye brows, brush teeth, all in all take care of yourself.
Excersie.
A great thing to do is be physically fit, each person has their own fitness level, you know your body type if you’re a heavy built big guy that is what you’re going to be, if your short that is what you’re going be, if your skinny that is what you’re going be, but get in the gem, it works wonders, makes you feel great about yourself and look better too.
PHEROS
I have not used pheros yet, my intentions with them would to be able to help open sets. I have been reading about pheros, from what I understand they are no replacement for practice opening sets, but a tool to make it easier on yourself when doing it.
I will post more AFC- phero usage later.
This is my thoughts now, is that no matter what I have it will only be as useful as I make it, the pheros will only help me as much as the effort I put forward. I am hoping for a (that p word) effect that makes me think it’s going to make me better so I go out more and try more often.
Just don’t buy them thinking there going solve all your problems, you will still have to work.
Thank you for reading this, please feel free to add to it, leave suggestions and comments. If you use some ideas I presented here please give me credit ( like you copy and paste and add).
Also I would like to thank every member and admin of this forum, and community, you guys and gals are awesome!
If this helps just one AFC get him or herself out of their current state of AFC-ness then I have done my job.
Thanks,
-Nate
