Hello, my name is Brian, I’m a 39 year old chemist from the upper midwest. I’m here to learn more about [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) for several reasons: 1: I find science, especially biological interactions to be very interesting. 2. I’ve made a commitment to myself to improve my own social interactions. I’ve spent most of my career perfecting my technical knowledge and skills without working on my ‘people skills’ or simply finding ‘people skills’ a bit scary…I’ve been finding that technical skills and knowledge aren’t enough to get ahead in my field. I’ve done a lot of reading and taking seminars on personal skills and even NLP which has helped considerably. 3. I have the feeling that I’m not the most approachable person and am looking for a way to change that. I’m 6’4 and used to be a body builder in college. When new people I meet guess what my profession is, they usually say ‘cop’ or ‘bouncer.’ Lol. 4. I’m not really looking to pick up more girls, that wouldn’t go over well with my wife, though use of pheromones to get her in the mood more often would be nice 🙂 ---

Hey Bri72, you found the right place for self improvement. Beyond learning about pheromones most of the advanced users here are united in the idea of self improvement. Pheromones is just another tool or catalyst for that direction! Also another great advantage is this place is big on feedback. While its recommended that you start with trying the consumer products, once you have some experience and reported on them you can get discounts on trying the more advanced stuff. 🙂 In your case you sounds like a very dominant and alpha looking person. Does this hold true for your personality as well? Pheromones have effects on yourself along with others. Greatest thing for guys is confidence and trust building. For the wife it be great to try IH for bonding and good communication and some TUTH for spicing up the bedroom. A314 is great for confidence and getting male co-operation at work, but if your already very alpha IG is the more lighter social variant. Tell us more about your goals for using pheromones and I can help point you in the right direction better!! ---

Hello Brian and welcome to the forum. We’ll address the easy part first - try reading the thread in my signature block for married guys. It will give you a lot of thoughts, strategies and products to sue with them. I am like you - big and I can be a little intimidating although I am really a nice guy. Really. If anyone says otherwise, let me know and we will have a tlak about that. Seriously though - try reading the other two threads in my signature block also. They will give you some ideas on other combos. The last thing I will say is IH. One of my favorite products. Helps generate feelings of connection which helps overcome that natural scare factor I seem to have. People in the past have called it the “Clint Eastwood” effect. Please ask any questions. ---
