I’m new to this forum. I’m 25, currently living in Central Texas but will be moving to Georgia soon. I came across your website while looking for INDEPENDENT reviews of the athena and pherulure products. After reading here for a couple hours, I think this is the place to be, and the androtics store seems to be the right place to shop.
I remember trying a cheap bottle of pheromones that my friends and I probably bought from a spencers gifts back in high school and being completely unimpressed. It smelled like someone just urinated in a bottle and tried to pass it off as an attractant, so I haven’t really given them any thought for years. I saw an ad in Popular Science for athena and thought I’d do some research. Since I’m moving soon, I thought it would be nice to grease the wheels when I get to Georgia, and I’m not afraid of taking any advantage I can get. Reading through the forum though, I had no idea there was such a wide number of uses for pheromones, and I began to see potential uses in other areas. I’m an officer in the Army. At this point in my career, with the soldiers and superiors that I’ve been working with for a while, I have no trouble getting respect and having others recognize my authority; I think taking care of people and having integrity is much more powerful than any pheromone. I don’t think someone who truly didn’t deserve respect would get it no matter how much he splashed on, but I could see where it could help me in situations where I was dealing with new people, to help establish a solid reputation with them earlier and faster and lead to better end results. The military is constantly in flux, and we’re moved around a lot. I guess they believe that high personnel turnover allows everyone to share their experiences with more people and lead to greater institutional knowledge. I tend to believe that it also leads to less effective teams because it takes longer to establish mutual trust and respect for all the members. Anything that could reduce that “learning curve” would be a tool I’d want to keep in my kit.
And of course, the original reason I started researching, quickly finding a romantic interest when I move, is still important to me.
Any suggestions on where to start for a good combo? I’ve read Snook’s thread for rookies, and think I have a good idea of where to start, but any advice for a custom combo from more experienced members would definitely be appreciated.
Thanks for having such a great resource.
