I eluded to a positive effect to wearing pheromones in another post, namely because I am looking for effect in others, I am obviously paying closer attention to them. This is a positive passive effect, i.e. positive socialization not directly pheromone induced.
I have thought about this some more and I would like to share.
Lets start with the one I have already mentioned.
Paying closer attention to peoples conversations and body language
You will be more in phase with them and you may sympathetically alter what you are saying because you are more aware. People like it when people pay close attention to them (sometimes!)
Wanting to socialize more
Because you want to look for effects, you place yourself in more social situations. Obviously, the social you are the more chance you will in seeing an effect. A minor side personal aspect of this is I now am much more eager to run errands, go grocery shopping etc. Performing more of the mundane ‘running about’ tasks is having a minor but positive on my wife and I’s relationship.
Smiling
IS and CTTM make me smile. The fact you walking into a situation happy and smiling will have an positive effect long before pheromone could. This is a semi-passive effect, i.e self-effect for you and non direct pheromone effect for others. Obviously after the pheromones hit, everyone is happy ![]()
Memories
If a good/happy/sexual/open honest/productive social engagement occurs, people remember that as a positive. Phone calls/emails/ims may occur to recollect the engagement to enforce the memory. In this case, an IM conversation 2 days later is not directly pheromone influenced but is certainly a passive positive effect of pheromone use.
The next engagement is anticipated to be just memorable and enjoyable.
Self preparation
If you are about to enter a situation where you desire a particular outcome, you carefully think about which pheromones will help you achieve that goal. You are also planning coversations, reactions etc. Preparing yourself mentally is always good, it tends to make the situation less stressful for you (and others). You may even spend a little more time on personal grooming/appearance.
The use of cover scents could be considered part of this.
Seeking advice
You are reading and posting on this forum are you not?
Rest of Life
I know that my work productivity and creativity has improved in the last month or so. My relationships and business dealings, while influenced by pheromones are better. This leaves me more time to stop worrying about them and concentrate on my work.
Another effect is I am certainly having fun…
I am sure there are other positive passive effects
