OK another night of testing with FPPX2 Saturday night at Red River. This time I applied 20 drops, per SteveO’s suggestion.
I got to the club and my usual spot was taken, so I took up another spot about 10 feet down and sat a couple of feet away from 2 girls, a mother and daughter, I think. I sat on the side nearest the younger one. I’m there for maybe 2 minutes then the older one leans across and asks me to dance. I politely decline, telling her I’m not much of a dancer and have to have at least a beer or 2 before I’ll venture out on the dance floor. I start noticing the younger one looking at me a lot, and she finally leans in and asks me if I was at the club for a concert several months ago. I say yeah and she replies by saying that she sat next to me that night and this is her first time back since. We talked a good bit and she sat or stood next to me all evening. She was pretty standoffish to everybody, including me, but I did notice that she had closed the distance between us and had loosened up just a little over the course of the night.
There was a woman standing about 6 or 8 feet down the subwoofer when I got there, and after about 10 minutes or so, she comes over and stands about 2 feet away and stares at me. I look over at her and say hi. She says hi back, and says nothing more but just keeps staring at me. I’m not remotely interested in her and she was being rather creepy so I look away, but she just keeps standing there staring at me. A minute or so later she’s still there and leans in and puts her hand on my leg and says “you know all the songs don’t you?” I say yeah pretty much and look away again. She finally leaves, but came back several times throughout the night and would just stand there staring at me.
Also the girl from last Thursday that stood between my legs and told me that she was just looking at me is there again. She doesn’t come up to me tonight, because when I saw her I immediately turned my attention away and made it clear that I wasn’t approachable, but when the band came on she took up a spot in front of the stage about 10 feet away and kept looking at me throughout the whole set.
There were three ladies that came over and stood on the other side of me when the band came on. 2 of them were probably mid 40’s and the third early to mid 20’s. The one next to me was fishing in her purse for a lighter, so I pulled out mine and light her cigarette. She asked my name, then told me hers and told me that the other girls were her sister and daughter. She was being very friendly, then some guy came over and asked to dance and took off to the dance floor, so I started talking to her daughter, cause she didn’t seem all that happy and I thought I’d try to cheer her up. She told me that her mother was married and she thought the way she was acting was very disrespectful. But she started loosening up some and being flirty/friendly with me. Then the aunt comes over, stands between my legs, puts her hands on them and tells me that she’s way to young for me. I had caught her looking and smiling at me a lot, but I wasn’t into her at all. Anyway, that kind of killed the vibe I had going with the daughter, but I did end up walking them to their car at closing time.
There were about 4 girls on the back side of the subwoofer that were giving me stares and smiles everytime I would look their way. 2 of them were probably in their mid 30’s and absolute babes, but I think that they were there with their boyfriends, cause 2 guys kept coming back over to them every now and then and they appeared to be couples. The other 2 were ok looking but not really my type. There was another girl right behind me who was texting on her cell phone. I pulled my usual and reached back and covered the screen with my hand, and got the usual big smile. After she finished texting she leans across and asks my name and we talk for a minute, then she flips her cell phone open and says “what’s your number?” As I’m telling her she’s entering it into her phone, then hits send and says “There’s my number, call me sometime” She then says she’s got to get back to her friends and walks away.
Another couple come over and the girl makes it a point to sit inches away from me, even though there was several feet of space and she had no reason whatsoever to be so close. The guy is totally hanging all over her, and it’s actually rather irritating. But, after a couple of minutes she rocks herself into my shoulder a couple of times to the beat of the music, then leans in and tell me to sing with her. I’m like “No, that’s ok”
A negative effect I saw again tonight, and one that I may have to attribute to the mix becuase it’s just not like me is that I almost got into a fight again tonight. There was this idiot who was there with his girlfriend, but kept on hitting on one of the 2 girls that were sitting with me all night. The younger one (Daughter?) was getting really pissed at him, and at one point he tried to hit on her. She cocked her arm back like she was ready to deck him and told him to back off! He started giving her nasty looks and it sort of pissed me off too. Then he came over and hit on the girl on my other side, and in doing so wedges himself into me as if to push me out of the way. I shove him away with my leg and tell him to get off me. He give me a dirty look, but walks back over to his girlfriend. Then starts glaring at me, and I just give him a you’re an idiot look and shrug my shoulders. He flips me off and says “Fuck you” So of course I flip him off and tell him to “Bring It” He starts walking back to me, and I jump down fully expecting to fight, but his girlfriend grabs him and tells him “No”. He starts pointing at the door, indicating we should take it outside, and I’m like yeah right you fucking moron there’s 5 sheriffs right outside the door just waiting for people to start fighting. About then several bouncers are walking over and the girlfriend has got him to calm down. As the bouncers are standing there he steps forward and puts his hand out to shake and says he is sorry. I’m like that’s fine, we’re cool, but do me a favor and apologize to the girl too. Then with him standing right there the girlfriend gives me a hug, says thank you and pulls him out of the club.
So, again lots of hits with FPPX2, including a couple very blatant ones and on the weird side. But, all-in-all, I’d have to say this is a potent mix. I did watch for self effects this time, and noticed that after applying the mix I felt kind of a cool, suave, and in total control feeling and attitude.
I will have to watch closer to see if the aggression factor is due to the mix, or simply the law of odds. It’s been many, many months since I’ve been in a fight, a near fight or a pissing match, but it’s happened twice in two weeks now. I did not feel any aggression when I put the mix on, and both nights the willingness to fight came on about 3 hours after application.
