I’ve been aware of pheromone products for a long while now, though they were not something that I was ever planning on using. It had always seemed in the past that the use of such a product would be a sort of cheating–“if it was meant to be it would happen naturally” and so forth. Another reason I never seriously considered them is the possibility that these sort of things are simply snake oil.
Historically, my life has been a Good one. Close friends, good relationships. However, I am currently in a place where I am attempting to improve aspects of my life that I feel are now lacking. Part of this is improving my social life. I am somewhat introverted to the point where I rarely lead a conversation, and I almost never start one with somebody I am not already comfortable with; though I am comfortable talking with someone otherwise. My closer friends do honestly feel very comfortable with me and trust me (something I do not betray), but new people are often incredibly awkward for me to deal with.
What leads me to this place is an awareness of how much scent draws one of my roommates. Three times that I know of she has been incredibly drawn to a man because of his scent. One time, I know there were no products involved. Diet was probably a factor in that one. The second was towards a guy who, I believe, would be the type to use them (he is also into pickup artist type things, put-down comments to raise interest and crap like that. I really don’t get that nor want to be that despite how effective it is). The third I honestly have no idea, though it caught my interest because I see how interested and drawn to him she is.
Having close friends and lovers has always been important to me. External events (read: Life happened) and some internal ones have left me without my peeps. Right now I am fighting a negative feedback loop of loneliness and a slight depression. Not ideal conditions to gain, regain or maintain relationships. This is one of many life changes I am pursuing to enhance my life and bring myself back hopefully even more successful than before. I’m in my early 30s, Washington state, Male.
My hopes:
It would be nice to be able to do/have something that would
1) reduce my internal anxiety and draw me out. stimulating T production would be a plus.
2) draw some individual/direct attention to me. When I can sense that people WANT to talk to me its so much smoother.
3) create some level of interest/fascination/desire about me from women (and, though quite rarely, men).
I believe that it also would do me some good to seek out and have the occasional casual encounter.
The timing is right for me to give this a try. Within the next few weeks I’ll be placing an order.
