If it helps you too, great...

Yeah, I find that when I’m really stoned, even if I WANT to, lil soldier is FAR more stoned than I am. LOL.

Well, maybe that’s why IH meshes so well for me. :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, I think you have a point. I don’t think I need to test your theory. I think what you say rings true.

Boy is it about survival. That’s practically the whole point. That’s the challenge I’ve come to accept.

I’m not sure which roommate or ex-gf you’re talking about. My dormmate wasn’t with that girl, and if you’re talking about L, that roommate is long gone and I don’t really have any close feelings for him. She had a lot of hang ups about her ex, and I guess that turned me off.

Thanks, yes it was helpful. On point as always. :smiley:

Thanks for sharing your experience Diamond. You’ve got good points too, I’ll try and relax about it.

Thank you to the people that responded privately as well.

I accidentally forgot to shave before applying the pheromones and so I’m not sure how much was actually left afterwards…

I think the combo was too ‘safe’. There wasn’t much of an edge anywhere and left me feeling like the combo was a little bland. My friends reacted very positively, as did my other friends that I saw at the party. One guy is usually pretty aloof, to the point where I might call him a dick. Others might just say he’s not interested in making new friends. The reason why I say this is because while I might say hi to him, he’ll never really acknowledge it. It’s only because he’s friends with some of my friends that I will be polite and say hi to him anyways. Usually he brushes it off and I’m not that surprised.

What does annoy me though, is how he will slide him body in between me and the group, his back to me, effectively trying to cut me out of the circle. I just let him know that he’s backing up into me, and he’ll stop but it’s a stupid game that I’m not interested in playing. He even cut into a conversation I was having with someone, put his arm around them and directed them somewhere else. Whatever, we were talking for a long time so I was kinda thinking about moving on anyways, but it’s still kind of a bitch to deal with.

Not really a hit, but I noticed this girl, Y, walk past where ever I was socializing several times throughout the night. My friends were off dancing with some girls so I walked directly over while Y was talking with her friend Q. I just said ‘I don’t think I’ve met you ladies yet. I’m Phya.’ They responded favorably, so I just asked some basic questions, what year? major? etc..Lame conversational stuff I think, because it’s such an obvious way to find common ground. Note to self, read more news so you have something else to talk about randomly.

Anyways, I focus on Q for a moment, Y jumps in wanting some attention. Y send some IOIs that Q caught on to, and she quietly excused herself. Y and I talked for a while about school, our options after graduating, our asian heritage, etc…what was interesting was that at one point, she told me she was going to the bathroom, but instead stuck around to talk for another 10 minutes or so.

I don’t know if that was some sort of bs test or if she didn’t need to go anymore or what…I’m no mind reader, but whatever I’ll say it’s worth pointing out because usually at parties, if a girl isn’t into you, and needs to do something else, they’ll find a way to do it quickly. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a chance to see what might happen as my friends came by and were planning on leaving. They were my ride so I just told Y that it was nice meeting her and maybe I’ll see her around.

It also happened to be good timing as the cops showed up right then. After that we went to post party at my friend’s apartment. Not too much to talk about, we were just dancing and having fun. Eventually I called it a night and went home to pass out.

Like I said the combo didn’t have much of an edge, but socially it worked very well. I’ll say though, that it seemed too..polite. I don’t know if it needed more p79, or something else, but the IG definitely skewed the direction of the combo to ‘safe’. Meaning the pheromone combo was safe, not risky. I noticed a lot of body language last night. It’s interesting to see which guys exhibit ‘dominant’ behavior such as a hand over yours while shaking hands, or putting their hands on your shoulders. Next time I might try putting on a similar mix, but respond with dominant behavior myself, just to see how they react. I’d be interested to see which of the guys would be able to gracefully accept the unsaid challenge, and which will react negatively, feeling threatened.

1 IH2x To-Go

The p83 made all the difference. It wasn’t the ‘edge’ per se that I was looking for, but it definitely opened up the IG. The IH was more of an after thought, but it seemed to mesh well. I do think that the two of them will make a particularly potent conversation, needs to be tested throughly though before I can come to a conclusion.

My impressions on the combo are similar to my last report, but it was a lot more loose and casual. Less reserved than before. No real hits or anything, a girl who I had met before a while ago saw me and said hi. All things considered it’s a very good social combo but reconsider it if you’re out on the prowl.

when on the prowl, i tend to avoid IG . Its tone is sometimes received as pathetic when i hit on girls. socially it seems to lower my status among other guys, but with girls that already like me, i seem to fall into their get married radar.

I understand what you are saying. It gives you the Mr.Dependable vibe - as in this the guy you want to marry as he will support and take care of you.

Now for me as a married guy that is just fine. I am Mr. Dependable, Mr. Trustworthy when I wear it. I get a lot of friendly (very non-sexual) kino from certain women - touches on the arm with a warm hello as they walk by.

This is not a bad thing for me as I can come across a little scary sometimes. If I use a314 I really need to brighten it with IH or IShine.

Not really a report of mine, but my friend was going on a date and he wanted some pherohelp. He told me he’s had some experience with Alter Ego and A314. I asked what kind of girl he was about to see. He described her as kinda ‘serious’, goal oriented, and down to earth. Then I asked what kind of vibe he was trying to send out, or cultivate. He replied that he was trying to get her to open up, relax, loosen up if you will.

So here’s what I gave him.

1 spray of IG
1 spray of IS2x
15mu p74
20mu p83 on wrists
1 IH2x Togo on wrists

His results? Apparently it was a success. He called me at 2:30 to tell me so. She had a final the next day, but apparently she couldn’t leave the conversation, let alone the car. Eventually he himself ended the night because he didn’t want her to fail her final (what a sweetie..:stuck_out_tongue:). He’s still pretty happy I think.

I suggested he join the forums, and if he chooses to, he can share his story with you guys personally. I don’t really know the details anyways, certainly not enough to provide any sort of detailed report.

I can, however, provide my reasons for the combo that I suggested. I hypothesized earlier that p83 would go well with Instant Honesty. My thinking was that IH is very powerful and certainly works as advertised, but it can be overwhelming at times. The IH2x Togo was chosen so that the girl and my friend wouldn’t be overwhelmed. The p83’s disinhibiting effects should have made it easier for her to open up and talk. Apparently she was talking about some very personal stuff, stopping to check herself (maybe wondering why she’s talking about such personal stuff early on?), then continued talking anyways. In that respect, I think the p83 worked. When it came to the point where she considered censoring herself, the disinhibiting effect kicked in and convinced her to keep talking anyways.

The IG, IS were mostly for self-effects. I figured he’d be a little ansty and the IG is great as a calming, laid-back effect. The IS brings the fun vibes, creating a situation where the girl feels good about opening up, hopefully enjoying herself in the process. It also has the usual benefits self-effects wise. The p74 was both for self-effects and effecting the girl. Bringing that charismatic, cool, laid back vibe. I’ve also seen good results from the IG+p74 combo, there must be something irresistible about a dependable, fun, charismatic guy. :stuck_out_tongue:

The p83 also served to disinhibit my friend, making sure that the IG and IH doesn’t keep him bottled up and too reserved. All in all, I’m rather relieved that the night went well for him, the fact that the pheromones helped is only a plus. I’d be pretty disappointed in myself if somehow the pheromones detracted from the experience. I would have been fine if no effects were seen, but I didn’t want to ruin the night for him.

Anyways, that’s about all the detail I can provide on that combo, but I’m going to experiment more with IH and p83 together. Maybe bringing back the TAK into the equation. Perhaps the p83’s disinhibiting factor can lessen the disassociativeness of TAK while keeping it’s ‘reduction in resistance’. To this day, the TAK and IH combo has resulted in a close, physical interaction with less words uttered than any other combo. Hard to fully explain, it’s somewhere in the earlier pages if anyone cares to search.

I wore two sprays of p102

I was bored and wanted to test so I took one togo of p101 and one togo of p102 and mixed them up. I held them and switched them until I forgot which hand was holding which. Then I kinda tossed them under my sheets and searched around until I found one. I didn’t look at what I was spraying because I wanted it to be a surprise.

I was on my way to my last final. We pretty much have to just show up and either perform a piece or present our project. I had just finished my project and was smoking to celebrate. After putting on the putative, my high was waaay more intense. I was shocked. I mean, I just finished a short 10 day break and I expected my tolerances to be lowered, but I was high to a degree that wasn’t at all expected. I was completely and utterly stoned.

I walked quickly because I didn’t want to be late and I needed to drop off some books at the library for some friends. After that, I went to my final. I pretty much just sat there and watched. I didn’t really have anything to say to the people around me. I would say that my high definitely invaded my reality and kept me hostage. Like an Instant Honesty overdose.

I noticed the girl on my right would keep looking at what I was doing, even commenting when I put a question mark next to Beginner in the check box. She thought it was funny. Eventually she straight up asked me if I was doing a performance. Told her no, I’m doing a presentation on a drum I made. I wasn’t too confident on how well it’d play, and I wasn’t feeling very social in general.

When it finally the final ended, something kinda disappointing happened (basically, I watched a girl that I was kinda talking to, rush out of the class with another guy.) I noticed that completely changed my mood. I wasn’t just burnt out and needed a smoke, I was downright pissed, and sad. I was surprised at the intensity of my reaction for her. I didn’t really have strong feelings for her before, but today she really looked pretty, all dressed up for her performance, I dunno, just hit a couple buttons I guess. I wonder if part of it is wanting what you don’t have and I was casual about it before because she was spending her time with me. I dunno, it’s not like I was dating the girl, but there was definitely some kind of relationship even if very casual. Anyways, there’s really not much to say on the matter, one of those just move on scenarios. I’m starting to think that I’m way too picky and need to just pull the trigger and find out for sure if she’s right for me or not.

Anyways, I was on my way back home to pick up some stuff from a friend and a person in front of me is inattentive and holds up the left turn until it turns yellow, so I get stuck having to wait for another cycle. That really pissed me off. At this point, I kinda felt that whatever putative I was wearing really intensified things.

This wasn’t an intensifier like p79. p79 is way more physical. This putative felt more like an emotional intensifier, definitely not visceral and not too cerebral. Okay, let’s see what this mystery pheromone was…

p102. Hmm..well, there you have it. My first experience with p102.

wow, I can’t believe it’s been a month. What’s new? Kinda starting a relationship with J. We clicked one day and started flirting and getting closer over a week. No dates or anything. I’m not sure what direction this relationship is headed, but whatever, I’m happy.

I’ve been wearing varied combinations of IG, IH4x, p79, and p74. For example, 1 IG + 20mu p79 + 15mu p74, or 30mu p74+1 IH4x. I just switched up the ratios everyday to get a feel for how the components mesh.

As far as reactions go, J’s hugs got closer, she asked for several massages as well as offered several massages. Stayed up late flirting, playing cards, that kind of stuff.

So, J’s been having a really bad week and we didn’t really get any quality time for a while. Honestly, I was kinda tripping and wondering if I did this, or that, or some how otherwise screwed up. I guess having to experience a really strong connection so quickly, then to feel its absence just as quickly is really disconcerting.

Anyways, part of what I thought it might be was that we connected so well because of the pheromones I was wearing around her. I know that pheromones won’t make something out of nothing, but I wanted to know that she was into me, not Instant Gentleman. So I decided to try and work through my insecurities w/o any pheromones. I’m glad I did.

She came over, ended up letting out all the accumulated stress. I comforted her and tried cheering her up. It worked and we spent the rest of the time very pleasantly. Laughing over stupid things. You all know how lovey dovey feelings can make any stupid thing hilarious just because you’re enjoying yourself so much. :smiley:

Anyways, I just thought I’d drop that tidbit. Now that I know we’re connecting w/o pheromones, I feel comfortable experimenting around her. I’ve never been in a relationship while knowing about pheromones, so I’m excited to see insights into products that I may not have seen before. Particularly more supposedly pair bonding oriented products like Instant Gentleman.

It’s been a while since my shoulder has fallen asleep. :slight_smile:

well it was a succesful mix, so my question is sort of moot, but do you think 15mcg of p74 is enough to make a visible difference in his date? particularly because there were already so many social pheros already.

Usually i never where less than 40mcg

I see you’ve been smitten. :slight_smile:

I wish I’d had them when I was dating. Every girl can use a little extra oomph. You can get that from a push up bra, ya know, but back in the day…

we didn’t wear bras. :stuck_out_tongue:

Nice. :wink:

Bella

Visible? I don’t know about that, but I wasn’t worried about getting visual hits. I put that combo together from the standpoint of not overwhelming his target and providing a balanced vibe. It wouldn’t hurt to up the p74 dosage a bit, but the primary focus was the IH and IG. The p83 was to try and make the IH more effective, and the p74 was to give the combo additional depth.

I would have had to be there to give you any sort of certain response. He wouldn’t know what to tell me even if I asked.

Yeah, let me tell you, caught me completely by surprise. Especially considering we’ve hung out and partied so many times together.

Heh, don’t we all wish we found pheromones earlier? I wish I had them in high school. But we’ve got them now, might as well make the best of it. :smiley:

But either way, sometimes old school results get you better results anyways. Many a push up bra (or rather its occupants) have caught my attention. :stuck_out_tongue:

I LOL’d when I saw that. Mostly cause its true for me as well. Walking, just chillin and BAM! :wink:
The female body is awesome.

Wow. It’s hard to believe I haven’t written anything since May.

So J and I didn’t work out. I don’t know what happened, and it’s been long enough that I don’t really care anymore. She’s dating someone else. It irked me a bit, but like I said, I’m over it now. Tried my best to be cool about it, and I think we work better as friends. Deep down, I think we both knew that we were too similar, or something, to really work out.

One thing that is nice, is that I’ve come to accept and understand that my ‘problems’ from before regarding my little buddy, are truly mental and nothing is wrong biologically. By finally getting that out of the way, I can address the other obstacles in my path.

I’m beginning to want to smoke less weed, believe it or not. I realize that the tension that builds up when I don’t smoke is a byproduct of testosterone build up. The fact that as a child, I actively try to avoid this ‘tension’ is exactly the reason why I didn’t really care about chasing girls at a younger age like most other guys my age. I was consistently depleting my testosterone supply so that I wouldn’t burst at the seams with emotion.

Now that I’m older, I see that just as being overwhelmed by stress is unhealthy, completely avoiding it leads to unhealthy behaviors as well. I’m beginning to like my fire, and I’m beginning to learn how to control it and manipulate it, without getting burned. I’ve got a long way to go, but I’ve come a long way in everything else I’ve started this past year.

I’m no Terminator, but my physical condition is better than ever. Even my friends were surprised at the level of dedication I put into working out. I’m very satisfied with my results. :smiley: It hasn’t boosted my confidence level to crazy heights or anything, I’ve always been fit, but knowing that I can achieve results by applying myself consistently is extremely valuable to me. More than just knowing, being able to show those results and see it every day I wake up is very satisfying.

My GPA has gone from ~1.8 to ~2.8 :smiley:. That pretty much saved my life. No joke. I would be in a completely different situation right now if I hadn’t taken the steps to improve my GPA. This year has been an amazing year for my grades. I’ve averaged something around 3.5/quarter. That’s not valedictorian status, but I’m proud of myself. It’s the best I’ve ever done in my life, the ironic thing is that, this is the first time I’ve really applied myself. I never wanted it before, and simply wanting it has made all the difference for me.

I also feel that my relationship with my mom is a lot better now that she knows I can be accomplished, despite being a complete stoner sometimes. :smiley: Really, it makes my world that I can talk to her without any of the worries of the past.

I’ve been slacking off a little in practicing guitar, but I’ve found a new love for music. I think that is more important right now, than being trying to be the most amazing guitarist in the world. :stuck_out_tongue: As I said, I have recognized the importance of ‘wanting’ it for myself, and since this need isn’t there, I’m not going to push it. I know I will come around when I have the mental energy. On the flip side, I really want to bring my drumset down here so I can jam with my friends. That, I’ll have no problem practicing. :smiley: I like making noise.

Other than those thoughts, the only other thing I’ve got to say is that it’s a great feeling getting things accomplished. There’s a lovely, light, lifting feeling everytime I go to the library and get some reading done, or my project/homework finished. I feel like an accomplishment machine sometimes :smiley: Even though those accomplishments are tiny, relative to some of the accomplishments of others. I’ve spent too much time stacking the cards against myself. It’s time I start giving myself the self-support and encouragement I deserve. And I have, which is the only reason I believe I’ve managed to come as far as I have. It would have been easier to give into regret and sorrow and just do nothing all year, feeling sorry for myself. I’ll never be a professional athlete, I’ll never have a perfect 4.0, or even be considered an amazing student. But my accomplishments are my own, and mean something only to me, so what does it matter if I don’t match up to expectations. They can put their bs in their pipe and smoke it.

The funny thing is that I only began accomplishing once I took the pressure of accomplishing off of myself, and telling myself that it’s okay to fuck up, and giving myself credit for the small things I’ve done. The only catch? You can’t bullshit yourself. You have to be brutally honest with yourself, and tell yourself what you need to hear, not what you want to hear. Otherwise, it’s too easy to just slip into a lazy, drifting, comfortable “Oh I’m doing just fine” until the waterfall catches you by surprise, by which time you’ll be struggling to swim and you probably won’t make it.

So those are my thoughts, and not one is pheromone related. Pheromones have not played a huge role in my life lately. I suspect that the reason for that is that the work I’m doing on myself goes beyond pheromones. Inner game, self-development, whatever you want to call it. Pheromones are the enhancer and for now, I’m just building up what I want the pheromones to enhance.

Oh, and I’m 22 now. I had a very quiet birthday. I wasn’t planning on having any crazy parties or anything, besides it’s summer school and people aren’t really around. I never liked attention on my birthday. I’ve always been shy about it. I guess I told myself, who the hell cares about my birthday? Sitting by myself, thinking about it, I realized the importance of birthdays. It seems so obvious now, but I didn’t get it before. I like celebrating other people’s birthdays, but I didn’t understand that, in the way I like my friends, and would miss them if they were gone, my friends also like me, and would miss me just the same. It’s a strange thing for me to accept, some of you may understand, some of you may think I’m stupid and should have understood that earlier. :slight_smile: Either way, I get it. Birthdays are celebrated because it’s the day that you came into this world. It’s the day that you began bringing joy to the people around you. Your family, your friends. If that day had never come to pass, I wouldn’t have enjoyed the laughs and good times with you.

So I’ve concluded that from now on, my birthdays are something to truly celebrate. I know how to party, I just never wanted to throw a party for myself. :stuck_out_tongue: But, like giving myself the credit I deserve, sometimes it’s necessary to celebrate yourself too. There’s just a fine line between self-appreciation and egoism that I’ve never wanted to even straddle, but I see that my aversion to egoism has lead to the other extreme - too much self-deprecation.

Okay, that came out a lot longer than I would have thought, even though I didn’t have any expectation on what I was going to write about. I really just wanted to write an update into my life, and..yeah, all that came out.

Long story short, I feel like I’m transforming and that some tattoos are in order soon.

Edit: Looking back at this post, I notice I use :smiley: a lot. I think it’s because I’m always grinning like a cat with a canary in his mouth.

I decided to post this report. I was bored and decided to go to class wearing one spray of MX100, one spray of IFM to the back of my neck, and some dabs of p74.

I received a couple interesting hits using mx100 as a base.

One is from a guy who I assume to be gay, on one occassion, he followed me to the front of the class and sat next to me, engaging me in conversation the whole class, then introducing himself to me at the end. The girl sitting next to me was quiet the whole time, but brightened up and became friendly and talkative as soon as the class was over. Kinda eased into the conversation if you will.

That same guy today was sitting behind me when I sat down. He immediately tapped me on the shoulder and asked if I was in the military. I don’t know what gave him that impression, but I figured it had to do with the camo print of my backpack? Even then, no real military personnel carries a bag like mine. I’m pretty clearly ‘civilian’.

A girl I know in the class came up to me after class ended, rubbing my shoulders and back. We talked for a bit, and she headed to her next class. On her way out, she lightly dragged her hand across my upper back. We’ve been ‘friendly’ before.

The girl sitting next to me kinda became more aware and receptive of me. Later, we were both working on the homework and we started comparing notes and results. She thanked me for the help, and I simply said I’ll see you around. I dunno, I didn’t really think much of it, I was just doing hw. I don’t classify it as a hit, but I mention it because her behavior shifted throughout the class, most dramatically after the other girl came by and talked to me.

The other interesting hit, though not a positive one, was with the wife of a landlord I met today. My friends and I are looking for a house to live in next year, and I was visiting a house by myself. When I came in, I introduced myself to the owner, who was friendly and receptive. When I saw his wife, I stepped up and introduced myself at arms length. Her reaction was to step backwards, causing me to reach outward even further. We only had a ‘half’ handshake, you know, where one person just shakes the others finger tips. I suspect that the -none present in mx100 was becoming overpowering, compared to the other pheromones in the mix. It was a moderately hot day today, very sunny, and I applied the pheromones 4 hours before. The full day goes, skateboard ride to class, two hours of class, and hour and a half of library time, a half hour sitting in the sun calling landlords, then skating to my car.

I don’t know how skating or direct sunlight effects diffusion, but I do think that the IFM on the back of my neck was heated significantly more than the mx100 on my throat.

It’s possible that the reaction was also cultural. I believe the couple were of Indian descent. The reaction of the woman was definitely and instinctual one. She reacted as if I was holding a hot iron in my hand. A very ‘protective’ step back, and a cautious extension to shake my hand.

Hopefully it won’t negatively effect our chance to lease the home, but I might as well mention it. :stuck_out_tongue:

Hi world.

Update:
We were able to lease the home, this is actually our 2nd year. So my concerns earlier were unnecessary. A lot of shit has happened since my last post. I feel like a lot has changed. I think I’ll have to lurk around a bit again.

Well, well, look who the cat dragged in. Fuzzy little guy’s been buzy! :smiley: :wink:

Bella

Hi Bella! Busy is definitely an accurate descriptor. I’ve been in a relationship for the past year. But things are getting complicated. I’d actually like to ask for your perspective and experience on the matter Bella, but as open as I am about my personal information on this board, I’m not as willing to be so forthright with the personal information of others, so is there a chance I could pick your mind over pm or something?
