Introducing myself...

Hey guys, I’m a 25 year old gay man from South FL. I’ve been lurking this forum on and off for about a year now. I’ve sort of known about pheromones for a few years now, I think the idea of it was introduced to me when I saw the film Ocean’s 13. I’ve been very skeptical about the effectiveness of pheromones but I had an open mind and delved into researching it more just recently. In the past 48 hours, I spent perhaps 15 hours going through this entire forum. I am definitely intrigued by the stories.

I’ve always lived in very vain and shallow society (Manila and Miami), where good looks can be necessary to survive sometimes. While I have the looks, I’ve never had the confidence to project my personality. I grew up with very low self esteem and depression because of physical and psychological abuse from my family and kids at school. I had extreme social phobia–to the point where I’d run away from ringing telephones so I didn’t HAVE to answer it. To make a long story short, I’ve challenged myself to overcome my people fears. I’ve come to a point in my life where I can actually lead conversations and direct small teams.

But I want more. I’m highly intelligent and ambitious, but I’m still a bit lacking in my social prowess. Though I attract many guys (and girls too lol) with my looks alone, I still feel like I can’t reel them in. I have a nice guy personality and I’m looking to develop a more assertive one. I’m hoping to use pheromones to attract men (perhaps at clubs) and to elevate my social status among both genders. Maybe a combination of the pheromones’ self-effects, effects on others, and self-coaching will get me to where I want to be. I’m interested in the A314, but boy is it pricey!

I’ll be honest. I have fears that androticsdirect and their guarantee is a scam; as well as this forum (or at least some posts on it). I did some background research on the company, seems legit. I’m cautious because of the prices.

hey Dario,

well, I guess we all had this scepticism going on when we first came here. Well, won’t hurt to try, right? You should expect to receive your Gift Certificate in a day or two (that’s about how soon I got mine, if I remember correctly), that will let you try a potion or two practically for free. Living in the States, you won’t even have to pay for shipping (I still have to pay 20$ just for that every time I order).

A314 is expensive, yes. In my opinion it’s worth it though. After a year, I’m just starting my fourth bottle (which means each of them lasted for almost 4 months) and each one paid for itself many times, literally - it helped a lot with my job situation. Personal side of life also got much more controllable and pleasant.

Good to hear that you’re working on your confidence issues. It’s a good thing to do, I’ve done it and never stopped to be honest. Pheromones certainly help, but they work best when you’re able to overcome it yourself. In short - pheromones give you better chance of success in actions you actually take, rather than making them happen without your initiative. Especially ones like the above mentioned A314, suggesting confidence. You’ve had a good read of the forum, I bet you stumbled upon the word “congruence”. It means that when you behave in harmony with what the pheromones you wear suggest about you, it gives the result which is greater than just a sum of both.

Anyways, good to have you here, welcome to the Pheromone Talk :slight_smile:

Thanks for the welcome, Marihino!

Your bottle lasts you four months? How often do you use it? The Androtics Direct website led me to believe that a bottle of A314 lasts longer than that. Either way, it seems like it’s worth it from the reports I’ve read.

Concerning “congruence”… Yes, I’ve actually actively searched that term along with “A314” after stumbling upon it. I realize how important it is. I’m really excited to test this pheromone out. Which other products should I use in combination with A314, keeping my goals in mind? P74 piqued my interest, but I found out that putatives are discounted for “reporting users.” You guys don’t need to explain much to me because I went through many of the essential pages. I’d just like to know roughly how long it takes an average user to reach that status because I am interested in trying putatives as soon as possible.

I’ve also stumbled upon the idea of pheromones altering neurotransmitters. If there are any, which pheromones would be best suited for increasing attention, focus, or motivation? I saw TAF. Any thoughts? I’m ADHD, by the way and I currently take stimulant medication. Anyone coming from this background?

I know we’re all unique, but I feel like I have extra unique needs, regarding pheromones. It was a quite challenge to find the experiences on this forum that closely matched my needs and circumstances–being an ambitious gay ADHD social climbing college student. Maybe I’ll be proven wrong. :slight_smile: In light of my unique situation, I’m interested in testing and reporting–not just for the value of keeping a personal log of progress, but also for reaching that reporting user status.

P83 interested me as well. But it appears it’s out of stock.

Hello and welcome to the forum.

A lot of people come here very skeptical at first. But read throuth the abstracts section - they link to actual scientific papers. And then think about the number of users here - far too many to be a hoax.

The thing to remember is that these products are not magic and they do not work like the movie nor like and axe commercial. The guy of your dreams will not just fall into your arms. All these products do is give you an edge - the real work is still up to you and your social skills.

A314 is a great product. It is my favorite work product. expensive but worth it. But it can come across pretty strong to some people so I always use IH with it. The A314 still comes across as a strong alpha leader but the IH helps generate feelings of connection so people feel tied to you none-the-less.

You could also think about an Ammo & A314 combination. There is a thread in my signature block that talks about that one. Give it a read and see what you think.

Let us know what you decide to do.

It actually surprises me that it lasts me that long. I don’t use it every day, buy probably more than half… Most of the time one or two drops, sometimes more. There’s supposed to be around 200 drops in the bottle. Ultimately works out at less than 1$ a day. Totally worth it.

I’ve seen new guys very recently buying putatives (I noticed namely P74 and P75), so the price difference can’t be that bad… The times when a bottle of P83 costed 9.999$ for not-reporting users are gone apparently. P83 is in and out of stock, just watch the store, it is said to be one of the obtainable molecules, so should be usually available for sensible prices.
I have tried those two, and scratch my head over them. I see easily why they are called putatives. They are not as consistent as the Intant Line products. Well, they certainly are consistent as a product, but I don’t get consistent and predictable results. They are great sometimes, but vary greatly in a way that’s hard to foresee. Like, a tiny change in dosage, and reactions are completely different. They also work in very different ways depending on what else is used.
Instant Line is pretty much mix&match. You wear those products together and basically you get the best of each individual one while they kind of smoothen each other’s rough edges. Of course, some care needs to be taken, as for example Ammo, TUTH and IJ are all based on androstenone which is easy to overdose, so using them together can be risky. But still, those are tried and tested much better, have the money back guarantee etc - I strongly suggest starting with those. It takes some skill to even recognize the “hits”, and putatives require even more knowledge.

Welcome to pherotalk Dario!

When I read your introduction all I can see is someone so scared about everything.

I think you should start conquering all your fears and I hope this forum and these mones are a step towards that direction

Your gc was issued!

Thanks for the insight Marihino! I’m a bit undecided about what to get with A314 at the moment.

Thanks for the welcome Mickaelia! That is my goal. =)
