Hello to all, and thank you for having such a great community.

I’m Jeremy. I’ll be 23 next month, and I’m currently residing just south of Dallas, TX, in a small town that probably doesnt exist on the map. Originally from Missouri, I moved to Texas for what many would say is all the wrong reasons: love. That in itself probably says alot about me, and I will fully admit to being a hopeless romantic. Its been a rough road on that trip for love, but I did find an amazing job and now have a career, so it worked out in the end for me. Plus, her and I are now attempting to smooth things back over as well.

I’m a computer technician, and an extremely curious person. I like to know how everything works and why. I’m new to the pheromone usage. I had a female friend clue me in one them. She experimented with some herself, and said that it can be used for more than just sex or one night stands. I stumbled upon this site earlier tonight and have been hooked on the different threads since I first landed here.

Since I was homeschooled, and have grown up working under a car, on computers, and online I never really developed that great of social skills. I still am shy even as an adult. Lack of confidence perhaps? I’m still not sure. But I’m trying to overcome it. Meeting new people, opening up to them, and having them open up to me has always been a problem for me. Once I have known the person for a while, this becomes much easier. But in the beginning, I struggle with it.

There are three things I would like to test out [pheromones](https://a314.com/) to see if they can have any beneficial effect: confidence, social settings, and romance.

I naturally lack confidence. And I do believe that it is noticeable. Maybe not as much as I think, and maybe I over analyze this, but having something to help boost my confidence until I am able to reprogram my natural way of thinking is something that would be desired. Social settings is another thing that I feel I could use some help with. When I go out to bars or clubs with coworkers, I usually am distant. There have been countless times that I have blown off both my coworkers and potential new friends. I know that this stems from several different things. And I do not believe pheromones can solve all of those issues. But then again, I am new to this and I could be completely wrong as well.

I know one part is hearing issues. Its hard to be interested in a conversation you cant hear. But that only applies when there’s loud music or other noises. Another issue is lack of interest, lack of concentration, or just simple boredom. Such as me having to come up with the ice breakers and full conversation. I know that American society places certain roles on men, such as having to be the one to initiate conversation. But sometimes its nice for the woman to do this. Or at least hold her own in a conversation. Maybe this is poor choice in people I attempt to converse with. Or maybe part of it is me. I doubt I am intimidating, given I’m only 5’ 6" and 125lbs. But I came off as intimidating to classmates in high school. Or maybe I put off a feeling of distrust, some type of subliminal warning to people?

This is something that I feel pheromones could help. I by no means want to be the life of the party. But its nice to feel like people trust you and are open to you. And if they are trusting, honest, and open, then its easier to talk and hold a conversation. I like having deep conversations and theorizing. I would take a night out under the stars talking bout hopes, dreams, and future than a night full of binge drinking and waking up next to random women in some run down hotel room. But thats just me.

Work would be a subsection of social settings in my book. My job is laid back. I’m technically filed as a private contractor, which leaves my options open as far as my career and future. I do want to be able to come off as trustworthy to customers. I do not work directly in sales right now, but I have been told that I would do well at it. I do have many business ventures I would like to attempt in the next few years. Having a boost of confidence, and some help gaining trust on that first meeting I believe will increase my chances of making a great first impression, and lead to a more successful close rate with clients, more signed contracts, and eventually more money in my pocket.

The final thing that I would like some assistance with from pheromones is romance. As i noted earlier, I moved nearly 1,000 miles all for a woman. Many have said that I’m young, immature, and down right stupid for doing this. And to an extent, they were right. I am stubborn and hard headed though, so i have to learn these things for myself. And it has been a rough road with her. We both put each other through total hell. There has been alot of drama and mistakes on both parts. We are attempting to work things out again. But one of the biggest issues now, and something we have battled more and more as our relationship continued, was communication. I know that both her and I close up when hurt. We have shut the other out plenty. And we both are having issues readjusting and allowing the other person back in. I am a hopeless romantic, so I could be blind and foolish when I say this, but I think her and I can make things work out for the best for both our lives.

Having something to help increase bonding time and closeness would be great. She says that I’m alot more cold and show less emotion towards her now. I know that I need to open up more to her. And in the heat of the moment, its easy to. But normal day to day, I catch myself holding back. And I can sense that she is as well. I can see it in her eyes that she wants to say certain things, or do certain things. But she doesnt. Sometimes she thinks she’s not allowed. Other times shes scared of what the results may be. And yet other times she wants to but simply doesnt remember how. I think that her and I both could greatly benefit from the help of pheromones. Not in a sexual way (though later on maybe it’d increase sexual desire as well, not an issue at the moment), but in a sensual way. Having her open up to me and talk to me at night while going to sleep, cuddled up together. Time spent bonding. Increasing the bonding, the clinginess, the openness, the communication.

I am in no means trying to use these to get laid or anything. While pheromones may help with that, its something that does not interest me. I’m wanting to be laid back, chill, gain new friends, and repair relationships I once had that are not broken. These are things that I have read briefly that can happen as a result from use of pheromones. I would be in debt to this site if all of those things happened to come true as a direct or indirect use of pheromones. I’ve read that it can be life changing. I’m a gambling man, so I think its worth the risk. At the very least, its one more thing I can add to my collection of knowledge in my head. And its intriguing to see just how these things work with our brains and bodies. That in itself is worth spending countless hours reading about.

Anyways, I’m sure this is far too long for a simple introduction. Again, thank you to the site and all the members who contribute to it. Thanks to you, I shall be losing out on many hours of sleep 🙂.

Greetings Jeremy,

Welcome to Pherotalk! Quite a long post you got there, but no worries. Good to see someone write a good detailed description and put a lot of thought into what they want to accomplish with mones. You’ve certainly come to the right place! Lots of knowledgeable users here who are glad to help you out.

> [@](#):

> There are three things I would like to test out pheromones to see if they can have any beneficial effect: confidence, social settings, and romance.

First off lets try to break down what you want out of these mones. Confidence, social settings, and romance are all things that can be helped by using mones. One of the most important things to remember is that you have to actively participate with the mones to get the outcome you desire. What I mean by this is no amount of mones are going to help you if you stand in the corner with your arms crossed and have a negative mindset. Mones will certainly give you that extra push will not be the answer to your problems. Judging on your post and the fact that you are here now, tells me your ready to reach your aforementioned goals.

> [@](#):
>
> I naturally lack confidence. And I do believe that it is noticeable. Maybe not as much as I think, and maybe I over analyze this, but having something to help boost my confidence until I am able to reprogram my natural way of thinking is something that would be desired.

There are a lot of mones out there with self effects, including having confidence boosting properties. However, these may just be placebo effects. Not only that but, IME, just wearing any mones and noticing the increased hits and IOIs was a big confidence booster for me. I’ll get in to specific products that help with this later. The main thing you want to do is drop the fundamental mindset that you naturally lack confidence. If you have to fake it till you make it. From a neurological stand point, negative self talk will just continue to evoke the same negative emotions, which will in turn continue the negative self talk. It’s a vicious cycle. Your post made it very clear that you have had a lot of success in your life so far and that you have a lot to offer. There’s always going to be bumps in the road. Don’t let that effect who you are as a person.

> Social settings is another thing that I feel I could use some help with. When I go out to bars or clubs with coworkers, I usually am distant. There have been countless times that I have blown off both my coworkers and potential new friends. I know that this stems from several different things. And I do not believe pheromones can solve all of those issues. But then again, I am new to this and I could be completely wrong as well.

There many mones available at AD that have applications for social settings. In fact, these products are often dubbed, “socials,” for there help in social interactions. I will get in to these products in some detail later. These types of mones are great for giving off certain vibes to people but you have to stay congruent with their “message.” For instance, if your wearing ProductX, which is meant to give off that vibe that your easy to talk to and comfortable to be around, you have to actually be easy to talk to and comfortable to be around. Sure it may get people to start conversations with you, with the sense in mind that you are easy to talk to and comfortable to be around, but soon they will realize that what they sense and what they see/hear is not the same. I started to realize when I would get distant to people, it was usually because I was thinking about things too much. I don’t know if this is your problem, but if it is, get out of your head and have fun!

But I came off as intimidating to classmates in high school. Or maybe I put off a feeling of distrust, some type of subliminal warning to people?

I’m gonna touch on this as quick as I can. Personally, I believe your over thinking all this. You may be spot on in the logic of all this, but ultimately is it going to help you achieve your goals? I understand all the issues about hearing, annoyance, boredom, etc.. but it’s all about if you want to put up with those environments. Maybe you should stop hanging out in clubs and bars and start hanging out in cafes, bookstores, and jazz clubs? Things are the way they are and there not going to change anytime soon. If your talking to someone in a bar and club and it’s too loud, ask that person if they wanna continue the conversation in a more quiet place, like outside. If they don’t, go outside clear your mind and try to get through the noise. Otherwise, it might just be best for you to ditch that place and find somewhere quieter to converse.

Mones are great for giving off the type of vibes that you mentioned here, but like I said before you always have to stay congruent with these vibes. Good to see a like minded individual here. By now I’ve learned to put up with the club and bar scene but I always prefer a deep, philosophical conversation with some buddies. Again, like I said before, you may want to ditch the club and bar scene and try to find some like minded intellectuals elsewhere.

Like with your other goals, there are many mones that can help with this part of your life. The main one, in my opinion, would have to be A314. Now, I will go in to detail about this at the end of this post, but for now just know that it is a great all around mone for work. There are many others as well, which in fact can be paired with each other to create unique combinations.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this was the most common reason that people get to this site. Romance, sex, love, intimacy, fun…it’s what makes life worth living for many. Now, like I said before, these mones can help give off certain vibes to your girl, but you have to back these up with words and actions or else your efforts will be fruitless. I’ll go in to detail about what mones are good for the problems you described above, which if not mistaken is communication, intimacy, and openness.

You have some great goals you want to achieve with these mones. And I couldn’t agree with you more, the results and effects I have observed from using mones is quite fascinating. Ok, now here are some mones that can help you with your aforementioned goals:

Confidence: A314, Ammo, [Instant Gentleman](https://a314.com/product/gentleman/), Instant Shine, anyone wanna add to this list?

Social Setting(Bars/Clubs/Parties): A314, Ammo, Instant Gentleman, Instant Shine, Instant Openness, Instant Honesty, TUTH, Instant Jerk

Social Setting(Work): A314, Instant Gentleman, Instant Openness, Instant Shine, Instant Honesty, Ammo(very little)

Social Setting(Mall/Bookstore/Cafe): A314, Ammo, Instant Gentleman, Instant Shine, Instant Openness, Instant Honesty

Romance: Ammo, Instant Gentleman, Instant Shine, Instant Openness, Instant Honesty, TUTH, A314(possibly?)

Here are the general description for these products:

A314- Leader of men, alpha male, dominant, respect vibe. Great for work when you want to be a leader, take charge, and gain respect. I personally use this as a base for almost all of my combos in any situation. Must stay congruent or else will give off mixed signals.

Ammo- Masculine, sexy, alpha, confident, friendly vibe. Great for a confidence boost(may be a placebo), can be used almost anywhere at anytime, but use cautiously at work. A great all around mix of sexual and social mones.

Instant Gentleman- Older, respectable, protector, alpha, charming, with a touch of sexy vibe. Also great for a confidence booster(may be a placebo), and can also be used almost anywhere at anytime. However, this may be used less cautiously than Ammo at work as it gives off less of a sexual vibe.

Instant Shine- Vibrant, young, healthy, happy vibe. Great for making any environment shine 😉 Also has confidence boosting properties from the increase in good feelings. Can and should be paired with everything.

Instant Openness- Easy to talk to, comfortable to be around, ultimate icebreaker vibe. Great for any social situation where you want people to feel comfortable being around and talking to you.

Instant Honesty- Deep conversation, feels like they’ve known you for awhile, extreme comfort vibe. Great for any social situation where you want to build rapport and gain a deeper connection with someone.

Instant Jerk- Bad boy, alpha, dominant, I just had a threesome vibe. Great if you want to take charge and be dominant in an interaction. Another crucial mone to stay congruent with! Typically used in clubs/bar/parties settings but feel free to experiment with it elsewhere. Maybe just not work.

TUTH- Let’s get down and dirty, I’m hot for you vibe. Typically used right before sex and in sexual environments such as clubs or parties(NOT your niece’s birthday party!)

Don’t forget, all of these products can and at some point should be paired together to create your own personal combinations. There are many more mones that have other unique properties, but it is usually advised that you experiment with the consumer line products before you start going in to the putatives, experimone, and experimental mix products. Hope all goes well with your journey of self improvement! Remember, the search function is your best friend here! Good luck with your future experiments!

P.S. It really helps the people at AD if you start a journal and report on your experiences with their products!

Thank you for the extensive reply. I do appreciate the advise. And it is nice to know there are still some like minded people out there. I’ve had serious issues finding anyone like that since I moved here.

One thing that you are making very clear is that -mones are not a cure all. They can help with certain situations, but I have to follow up with what they start and be able to back these up. They pretty much are like a good wing man, but I have to do my part as well. Which I think i can do that.

You are right about the social settings that I’ve gone to. I will have to look into other types of social networks within my area. I have not found one that I really like around here yet.

I really appreciate the full definitions and breaking everything down like you have. I have Instant Shine, Instant Honesty, [Instant Gentleman](https://a314.com/product/gentleman/), Ammo, and Turn Up The Heat on order now. Cant wait to start experimenting with these on the weekends.
