How I found out about this forum: Lots of searching for the right place.
Self Description (Defeatist Version):
[Human] - It is futile to attempt to summarize a being of such profound complexity and innumerable unique qualities within any reasonably quantifiable amount of time. Limited by our inherently flawed and inaccurate forms of communication, we may statically or dynamically portray ourselves forthright, only to fall prey to the nearly ubiquitous inadequacies of our own perceptibility.
Self Description (Work in progress):
[Me] - An intellectual, or even cerebral individual who enjoys biology, chemistry, philosophy and the study of anything relating to human perception and/or the study of what we call “reality”. I have a very calm demeanor which has been described by an observer as impassive. Logic and rational thinking are my greatest and most valued assets.
As for the physical side: I would say that I fall right in the middle of the attractiveness scale. My face is quite young-looking for my age, and on more than one occasion I have received compliments on its symmetry. For the most part, you could consider me the “geeky type” of person minus the acne, glasses and poor sense of style. My primary method of exercise is walking. While I am not at all athletic, I am also not at all obese.
Why am I here:
The short answer is because pheromones have always been interesting to me and I am at the right time in my life to start experimenting with them. While I also plan to test various pheromones with existing friends, my primary reason for any products purchased would be for one-on-one style dates. Every once in a while there is a party that I may attend, but I am certainly not the clubbing type of person.
A Questions to wrap things up:
Has anyone done testing with these pheromones where the target(s) knew that pheromones were being used? Does that affect the results or change the affect in any way?
I can certainly post my findings for anyone who is curious.
Hey Illusionist Lynx, nice intro. Ever have a chance to take a personality test out of curiosity? A lot of the advanced users were here for the same reason, self improvement and sociological curiosity. Stick around and provide feedback, they will give you discounts on things with the RU status.
I’m thinking for what you’re looking to do is try out some IS, IH and TUTH. IS for attractive positive vibes, IH for solid trusting and bonding conversation, and TUTH for a sexual edge.
A number of people on the forum have partners that know what this stuff is, some in more depth then others. I think it takes an excepting person to comprehend that this stuff isn’t mind control stuff but rather an outer set of clothing. I told the women I was with at the time what I was doing, she liked it for a few months.. But then checked out the forum and got the wrong idea and got possessive and angry. So I say introduce it in the right way to the right women and you’d be ok. I personally hope to find a women that would like to use this stuff someday, I’m born without smell but I can pick up on pheromones
Thats cool that you found this place after lots of searching.You sound pretty smart.The subjects that you like are definitely interesting.Thats good that your a logical and rational thinker,those tend to get things done well and efficiently.A bit of flexibility is always good to enjoy life though(^_^) Hmm,its perfectly fine to be about average on the attractiveness scale.Most people worry about personality more than how a person looks nowadays although it still helps.
Sounds like your going to be one of the better testers on the forum and it will definitely be an interesting read.For one-on-one style dates,i find a combination of ammo and instant honesty pretty good.The ammo for a bit of attraction boost and instant honesty for the better bonding makes dates flow really well.A bit of instant shine to put you both in a good mood also helps.For existing friends,instant shine and instant honesty will probably be a good social mix for you.Although you could sub instant honesty with instant openness for things like parties for better icebreaking.As for the testing when the person knows,it wont really have that much effect unless the person is very negative or against the testing of it as they will be more likely to hide any feelings that are caused by it.I test them around my mum and girlfriend who know i use them but dont know which ones i use at the time and see the effects so doesn’t really change that much(^_^)Looking forward to when you start your journal and start posting your findings.Your intro’s pretty awesome so you should qualify for the gift certificate easily.Mickaelia will check your thread and issue it in a couple of days so would wait for it before putting in an order.All the best and hope you have an awesome time here.Dont hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
Glad to see you here. It loooks like you are coming here with the right outlook. As you have seen, these products are not magic - it will not be like an Axe commercial. What they do is more like give off subtle hints and the real work is up to you to get people to act on them.
As far as who you tell you are using them - I would be careful with that. There are a lot of misconceptions out there. Some people have SOs who are very accepting, and others have had them storm out. Err on the side of caution.
As far as products go - you have been given a good roundup so I will not belabor that point except to say to also look at IG. It would probably fit in well with your personality.
Indeed, I have taken and administered many different personality tests. Here is a list of what I believe to be relevant - as in supported by evidence - types of personality typing:
Astrological Sign: Many people have mixed feelings about going by these signs. The most common reason that many intellectuals are skeptical or even biased about astrology is directly due to the lack of good sources. Since there are so few decent sources to begin with it makes it difficult for those who are not open minded to give astrology a chance. I can usually guess a person’s sign after engaging in conversation with them just once.
Myers-briggs Type Indicator: I find this personality test to be quick helpful in gaining insight into the work habits and basic moral set of an individual. However, it does lack the depth of other more specialized tests.
Enneagram: This is my personal favorite. With a great deal of depth and specialized pseudo-psychological theory it is truly a fascinating read.
Anyway - Thanks for the suggestions. I am still reading about the intricacies of each of the products.
