Hey all. I’m Rob, 20 yr old, male, and I’m a university student here in the states. Found this site through a comment from a youtube video about this stuff.
A little about me: I was raised in NYC, and went to private school after 3rd grade. Private school was segregated between boys and girls, and later was separated by 2 separate schools.
Being a kid from an all-boys school for 8 years have made talking to women a monumental task. I practice in school often, but talking about classes only goes so far. Doesn’t help the fact that I’m a very shy person in general. They just don’t have any interest in me, and I don’t really know what interests them. They feel completely alien to me. I have plenty of friends, but none of them are girls, and I sure as hell never dated. Partied? Yes. Gone all the way to 3rd base? Yeah, but the morning after sucked. But never had a real date. I’m not too interested in seeing like some kind of rebel. I’m a nerd. My dad is a nerd. That’s not gonna change because of hormones. I’m also a helpless romantic, and probably the only dude who can ever sit through a movie like the notebook without vomiting, and liked Garden State a lot. So make of me however you wish.
I’m 20 years old now, and will be graduating in just a year. I know things will only get harder from here on out if I don’t do something. Honestly, these pheromones thingymagigs seem too hokes-pokus to really work. But enough youtube videos and searching on these forums have led me to try them.
Thing is I’m a pretty broke college student. FA just isn’t enough. I just have enough for my last year + rent for college. I quit eating out food, and am living off pasta/rice and cheap chicken for the duration of college. I don’t have time to work at a paid job. With the economy being what it is I need internships to even get a job, and most of em are unpaid. Taking 19 cred + 20hr/wk work unpaid makes finding any outside source of funds impossible. To show how broke I am I own just one cologne: Curve that I got at Walmart for $15. Has lasted me through many interviews and outings so far. And yes I quit smoking because of money troubles, and not for obvious health reasons. Has been a pain in my backside for the last year.
So I don’t have much money to really experiment with this thing. Its really interesting after reading how various steroid-derived substances affect different parts of peoples’ mood through smell. (makes me miss Chem) So after college, and when I find a high enough salary to afford a Lower East Side apartment, I will buy lots of these compounds and wreck havoc in subway cars. Until then I’m stuck in the ‘burbs far from home for now with only a few dozen Washingtons in my name to spare.
