Hi everyone! To start out, I am a complete newbie to pheromones. I am a man in my mid-twenties and of Asian decent living in the Bay Area (CA). For most of my life, I have been mostly shy, but once anyone gets to know me, I am quite outspoken and very sarcastic (jokingly so). In the past few years, I have, by chance, made many good friends and we all go out to social events together (happy hours, bars, clubs, etc).
Long story short: Male, Asian, mid-twenties, Bay Area California. Never was outgoing or social in school and currently working. Personality is shy, but underlying personality (with friends) is very jokingly sarcastic. I want to gain more respect, recognition, and visibility at work. I want to work on my game and social skills (women, but people in general) at social events, clubs, bars, etc. I have a LTR and want to lower stress and spice things up. I am NOT looking for miracles! I just want a helping hand in my own pursuit in life. Below is a more detailed story and better explanation. I listed questions all the way at the bottom.
For myself, I would always be a bit timid. Mind you, I was not a social or out-going fella in high school or college. My friends would break the ice and do introductions to get the conversation started. Often times, I can keep the conversation going, but I can only do so much with one-word responses. Over time, I have gotten more confident and better skilled at handling social events. Fast forward a few years and now I am in a long-term relationship and only go out every once in a while. I am happy to be in a LTR, but I am only disappointed because I feel I never really got to develop my social skills enough.
I have always been interested in the chemical interactions between men and women and wondered how this can be used in everyday life. I was lucky enough to stumble upon this site recently and have been doing about a day’s worth of reading (not all at once, of course). I have 3 scenarios I am looking to improve using phero products:
1. Work: I feel under-valued and often times ignored by my manager. While I did get a promotion recently, it was only after 3 long years of hard work (2 of which were not with him). I do more work than one of my colleagues who joined after me, yet he is in a much higher-valued position with a ton of visibility. Basically, when my colleague saw our manager’s list of resources (people) assigned to future work, he asked, where is Key? My manager’s response was, “Oh…”. I don’t know what was said after that.
2. Social Setting: I am not looking for one-night-stands. I want to work on my social skills and test if my game can be improved. I want to be able to attract women in general, but also want to be recognized and admired in a social setting. This also applies to friends I hang out with.
3. LTR: I am just looking to spice things up, like getting her in the mood more often or lift her spirits around me. We aren’t in a bad position, but lots of stress in our separate lives tend to strain things in our relationship together. The spirit should be more up-lifting and open, like Red Bull lol.
Questions:
1. I am thinking A314/IS/IO for work, Ammo/IH/IS for social events, and TUTH/IS for LTR. Is this a good start? Obviously, I don’t know my sweet spots yet.
2. What does Ammo smell like? Is there the same or similar pheromone like Ammo, but low/non-fragrance (is TUTH the same as Ammo without scent)? I have a sensitive nose to colognes, so I want to use my own cologne instead. It’s soft and rather weak, so something like Axe smell would overpower it easily.
3. The claim that Asian males tend to have low -none pheros because of the ethnicity and body hair makes sense to me. Does Ammo have more -none than TUTH? Should I use these two together?
4. Are IO and IH available in 30 mL spray bottles?
5. Are there ever sales for the store? I’ve calculated all the ones I want and as a first time buy, it would cost nearly $300! Of course, I’m buying 30 mL bottles for some rather than just the TO-GO. Hopefully I won’t have to return any. The major one is Ammo, depending on how it smells.
Anyway, looking forward to a long amazing relationship with all of you!
