May 19th, 2011 (Thursday) cont. Night
After my shower, I decided to test IH times 2 since I’m going out with the same group as Tuesday again. So I grabbed the Double Strength for one spray. 1 spray of IH 2x = 2 sprays of IH 1x was my logic. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Ah, my friends, my dear test targets, mes tres, tres, tres bons amis… If they knew, I’m sure they’d be amused and volunteer themselves willingly. But! Very big but… then they’d screw around and act out of character on purpose just to mess with me, so I’m keeping this from them. Guys will be guys.

Effects to others
7:45 pm. J came to pick me up. No effects on him it seems. zoom zoom zoom we went to meet up with our other friends at whichever restaurant they had agreed upon. I usually don’t ask what or where we’re eating I just know there’s going to be food! Conversation is normal. Good rapport and joking and laughing the whole way through.
@ 8:00 pm - 10:00pm. Dinner.
Group of 9 today total, 7 guys and 2 girls (this count includes myself). The girl is a new addition to the group for me since I haven’t ever met her. She’s R’s girlfriend. She seemed fine in her own skin and didn’t give me the evil eyes when we got introduced, which is a major relief on my part! Hurray for no daggers flying in my direction tonight.
Two of the guys were introduced to me as well since we haven’t met. Two people who are complete strangers to me! Finally, I have other people to observe that doesn’t have some preconceived notion or idea of me.
M currently moved to this neck of the woods for work (I told him he should’ve stayed in Houston where he’s from originally). The guys chimed in here to say that’s true, but he never would’ve met us! D lived around this area and met J at another party and from there, he’s been coming out now and then when the guys have a get-together.
Both of them were friendly, and I got their life history rather quickly. This is normal for me when I meet someone new when I care to bother to find out this stuff. Where are you from, where you grew up, what you’re doing, your dreams, hopes, your problems, etc… Feels like I’ve known you forever even though we just met. I do believe I have to thank my older sister to model after for this practice. Works 90% of the time with guys. Females are more fickle… >.> it depends on their mood, their age, and if I met them via a guy friend on randomly. The pattern usually follows that if it’s a female introduced by another friend, usually a guy, it’s a 30% chance. I don’t count on it too often due to past experiences. If it’s a female that I randomly met, 60%, if she’s around my age. The older the female, the more receptive she is to befriending me or opening up. So @ the 40s-80s are an amazing receptive age group for me. The older they are, the better and the opposite holds true. The younger they are, the more cattier and more evil eye looks are thrown my way.
Free dinner as usual with the guys. They usually take turns on who’s covering the girls for the night or who’s pitching in. What a group of gentlemen. I’m quite spoiled here on this regard. Their mama’s taught them well for sure as any of them can tell you. Open doors for ladies (cars included), pull out your chair, etc. Chivalry isn’t dead. It’s not necessary, but it is a luxury. I can do all these things for myself, pay for my own meal, get my own chair, open my own doors, close them too, but if you have guys who are willing to do them, I say let them.
@ 9:45 pm - 10:15 pm Car ride to JJ’s house.
I don’t have the precise time when we left the restaurant and headed over but it was in this 30 minutes range somewhere. I just know a trip that should’ve taken 15 minutes to get to took 5-8 minutes with him speeding at 90mph down a 35mph. I’m use to it. I just worry about him getting pulled over one day.
I got into JJ’s car this time. I wanted to use someone else as a test subject. No effects on JJ either. Conversation was normal and JJ told me it was good to see me again. Not out of the ordinary. He says it all the time, every time. JJ is one of the main people in this group as well. I say he’s on par with J here. I just realize how many guys in this group have names that starts with a J. >.> They’re quite diverse in my opinion. This group is predominantly 55% Black, with a couple Hispanics, 25, Asians, 10%, and the rest White, 10%.
@ 10:00 pm - 12:00 am JJ’s house. (not to be confused with J)
Watched IP Man 2. Not sure if I wrote that in correctly or not. Since we were all watching it, there wasn’t much talking involved.
People who have their minds focused on something probably aren’t thinking about socializing, etc.. This can be considered as one way to bond with each other though, in this case, spending quality time together in silence.
Before J took me home, JJ and J finalized plans for T’s graduation party with me. T’s the other girl of this group. Through the 9 years that I’ve known her, we’ve rarely been able to hang out with the guys together, so majority of the time, it’s her and the guys, or me and the guys. It’s rare when there’s both of us around, but we get along just fine and have a fun time.
My conclusions thus so far is that people who are familiar with me already seems to have no effects. As for the other two guys, nothing out of the ordinary for my first encounters.
Duration of effects.
@ 5 Hours. Slept in it when I got home. One interesting note: I can still smell faint traces of the pheromones. It must be just me because throughout the day, no one’s comment about smelling anything on me. I remember asking J before I went into my house what he thought and he said “you smell the same like earlier when I picked you up. Like you stepped out the shower with whatever bath and body works stuff you always buy.”
