Continence test
11-29..
So today has been my 6th day practicing Continence.
I woke up after about 5 hours sleep, showered yesterday afternoon and went to work without showering or eating. No colognes either, or mones, or EO.
Same diet as usual with added supps last few days.
All day at work it was pretty interesting.
It was sort of like ghosting but not really. People still noticed me and were friendly when the time was right but no apparent attraction. When I spoke to the young Hispanic female’s I work with they replied with nice smiles.
But there was one thing different.
For some reason I want to say it was like people were respectful like they held their tongue around me and kept their heads down.
Like when your super mean spirited manager comes around and you just want to avoid conversation, not because you don’t like the person, but because you’re worried they are going to criticize your work and you want to look busy. Even one of my supervisors who is totally friendly with me all the time, kept his head down and didn’t talk to me much. When I was headed somewhere in the building, this girl who is a 20s Hispanic cutie, a little heavyset and short, saw me coming and quickly stepped out of my way… But so excessively. She pretty much ran into something just to get out of my way, as if someone pushed her into it.
But this is why I didn’t suspect it to be ghosting but more of a respect hit, doors were being held open for me and people just generally moved out of my way.
I also noticed when people spoke it was with a much quieter tone.
At work I’m used to hearing loud speaking and laughter but all was calm. Not only employees but customers who came in, they generally didn’t have the excitement I’ve heard before, in their speech.
Also, along these same lines in pretty sure I didn’t hear any negative speech from anyone. At least some people find something to complain about but I didn’t hear it today.
I was really quite shocked when the cute 20s Hispanic girl who’s been crushing on me didn’t say hi to me, no big smiles unless I spoke to her and also she didn’t acknowledge me as I left nor said bye. All things she normally does.
If testosterone is really peaking towards the 7th day of continence and higher test leads to higher AndrosteRone, then perhaps I was really indeed getting some strong respect hits. I’m really not sure what to make of it but it all is quite interesting.
Conclusion
Hard to say. It seems abstinence does indeed change one’s pheromonal signature, but to what to degree and in what way?
I’m not sure but it was a learning experience.
