Hello to everybody

Introductions - New Users, Say "Hello"!

Hello everyone, I’m Chris, I’m 16 and recently discovered pheromones. I’d heard of them before, when they were in NewScientist (which I read frequently), but as far as I was aware their role was only hypothesized and only a little research had been done. What does interest me is mainstream skepticism in pheromones? As a skeptic and an evolutionist I am hardly phased by the the idea of humans using a vast array of pheromones for complex and multi layered purposes (for instance, I was shocked to see that many people doubted the existence of pheromones in humans when they are undoubtedly used by other animals).

I must say I love science, particularly chemistry and its role in biology. I’m not really a nerd and have plenty of friends but these things fascinate me! Pheromones seem like a very natural extension of hormones and neurotransmitters, whose action is responsible for emotion and mood. Wikipedia, whose knowledge database has often allowed me wisdom, contained next to nothing on the action and nature of pheromones. Suffice to say that our knowledge of the subject is incomplete, at best. But for me this raises an eyebrow of skepticism that shouldn’t be ignored.
On the other hand, I have seen feedback and discussions that have shown significant evidence for their very real effects. And the humanity, the commitment and openness of staff here gives me no reason to doubt this.

The only thing left then, is to try these babies for myself to know for sure. Of course, the positive personal and social effects of pheromones would be great too. I can get on fine in groups of people I don’t even know, but at times, my mind will turn inwards and I can’t break free. This happens more when I’m stoned. Pheromones would be useful for the effects they have on myself as much as others. From what I have seen, Instant Shine, Instant Honesty, Instant Openness and A314 are all good ones to try first. P74, the Liquid Sunshine series and TAF all seem worthy of experiment too.

Anyway, enough about me, I rambled too much. :frowning:
I really just like having a good time and making people laugh!

Hi Into the Sun,

Welcome to the forum.

I see you are skeptical, and alot of people are because of the lack of general knowledge on phero’s. I was once a skeptic, and now my eyes are open.

Please take some time to look around the sight. You will find that people get results consistantly, and some of us have found phero’s to have enhanced our lives greatly.

I would ask you however to tell us a bit more about yourself. What your personality traits are, and how you are socially. it will give us a better idea of some product to recommend to you. You mention you can sometimes hang with the group but alot of times you turn loner in the group? What do you think causes this? I once had “outside looking in syndrome.” IO,and IH have helped me with that. Instant Shine is a great confidence booster. So if its confidence you lack that might be something to look into. Just let us know a bit more.

I assure you, you stumbled upon the right place to start your personal research of phero’s.

I look forward to hearing from you more.

Again, welcome to the forum

Hi Chris,

Welcome to the forum,

Tell us more about your personality. Are you hy or outgoing?
Beside social effects, what kind of results are you looking at? relationship, respect, social and so on.

Then we can give you some recoomendations.

Cheers

I would personally describe myself as a mix of introverted and extroverted in different contexts. When with a few of my best friends, I am fairly dominant in conversation and sometimes get into deeper topics while remaining light, accessible, and sometimes comedic on the whole. Even if the talk isn’t intellectual I find I get on best with those who think rationally yet openmindedly. I read a book describing ‘personality types’, and, following it up on the internet with quizzes, my personality was described to be ‘INTP’ using the Myers-Briggs type indicator. As more people join groups, I find myself at a loss for what to say. Certainly, confidence is one thing, but I also find it difficult to make talk that can appeal to such a large group, at least without it being largely mundane and circular. I can be a leader in groups but prefer to be within more rounded, balanced groups in the first place. My two best friends are girls but I have other guy friends who I’m close to as well.

While I have little problem asking people I don’t know questions, I do find it difficult sustaining conversation with people I know little about.
I am liked by pretty much everyone, but am often too pensive to make small talk. While I am content with silence, I fear others are not and also sometimes wish I could conjure up conversation without thinking twice. Second guessing (or triple) is a bad habit of mine. Sometimes I feel like people are playing the exact same game with me, expecting me to bring forth something of interest. While I don’t mind being the centre of attention, I don’t want to be made a spectacle, especially when I’m likely to make a mistake.

I would describe myself as compassionate and passionate to a high degree. I can also be very forgetful, out of focus, and sometimes clumsy, but not in a physical way, but in a mental way - forgetting details and such. My mind is often in such a different place that I make mistakes because of ignoring my current reality.
I get respect from most of my friends but it’s not something that’s always been there. It has had to be earned over years. Respect from those I don’t know is harder to come by, unfortunately. Sometimes I feel downright ignored.

I’m bisexual but not very interested in having a girlfriend at the moment, although I would definitely be up for it if the right girl came along. I just don’t think I know any who are. As for guys, I wouldn’t even have a chance anyway because it’s social suicide to admit your sexuality. :frowning: That said, some whistle-blower’s been spreading rumours not too long ago so maybe it’s too late. People can be so uncaring. They should’ve put it in ‘how to lose friends and alienate people’.

That’s probably as much as I can say, at least off the top of my head. Any advice would be great!
After writing this I’m thinking Instant Openness is probably something I should be getting?

Yeah, you were right, you should try openess as it make people around you more open up & chatty, so do you. Yet IShine is also great to project your charimatic charms, it also boost your confidence and make people feel good to be around you. With both, you would become a popular guy in whatever settings, people want to stay close you and enjoy talking with you more.

Have a nice day!

Welcome to Pherotalk Intothesun!

I totally understand what you are saying. Pheromone usage is sometimes taken at face value but when I think about the our natural pheromones and how it works it is just mind blowing.

I won’t go into details since you’ve wait so long to hear me say :

Your GC has been issued :smiley:

Have fun with your pheromone experience.
