They "Sir"ed me to DEATH at the coffee shop (mix enclosed)

We had terrible weather today, and it seemed like everyone was generally in a bad mood. I was testing out A314, Turn Up The Heat, IShine, Ammo, and Instant Openness x2. Results as follows:

2x A314
2x Turn Up The Heat
4x IShine
2x Ammo
2x Instant Openness x2

Personal effects:

It had a light scent, with calming and focus effects on me. I found that I could work on a job and even with various types of distractions going on around me, I was unfazed. I didn’t really feel all that “open” to talk to people until I actually noticed someone looked like they wanted to talk. Then I could lighten up and have a pretty good conversation, with smiles and joking. This was different because usually I like to engage and at times initiate conversation.

Noticeable effects on others:

I went to a coffee shoppe locally to get work done. Some people would smile and say hello, others would seem to ignore my presence. People that I knew and some that I didn’t seemed to “Sir” me to death… I felt this was uncommon since this was coming from people that I normally would have a sense of comraderie with. It’s kinda common to get this from people who don’t really know me, though. I noticed this one guy kept looking at me out of the corner of his eye and seemed to be tense for some reason… I’d say about 19 - 20. When I looked up at him, he would look down or away :confused:… And there was this one girl that I was sitting behind who was working on her laptop. Cute, I’d say about 18 - 19. She looked at me without any expression and looked back down at the laptop. When she left, she walked past me and said hi, but in a real small voice. I was like, WTF? :confused:

I had a good conversation with this girl who works at the coffee shoppe though, and another girl who works at the bank. I’ve known her for a little while but haven’t seen her in a few months until today. We talked, she had a birthday balloon sitting on her desk… I asked if her birthday was coming up, and pointed at the balloon… she was like “yeah, my dad got me the balloon and it’s this weekend.” She said she was spending her birthday with family and she was going out with her girlfriends on Friday. Normal conversation, smiles and eye contact, but she seemed to be tripping over her words quite a bit which is out of character for her. She’s usually right on point…

So later on in the day we had terrible weather, with tornadoes and torrential rain and such, I got drenched and had to take my outer shirt off. I was surprised I could still smell the pheros after getting drenched! So I figured I’d make one last stop for the sake of experimentation. I went to a gas station and got a dirty look from a female cashier who was standing behind the counter. She came from behind the counter and headed toward the back of the store, and casually looked at me down-and-up without expression… But the other cashier was extremely friendly!?

So I don’t know what the hell happened today. Did I OD or do something wrong? I don’t know if people just seemed odd because of the pheros, the weather, or if it was all in my head!! :confused: OH well, I guess I’ll try again tomorrow.

Hi there :slight_smile: Detailed report here and what products you wore. Reps for that :slight_smile:

I think reading through your mix it sounds like you might have gone a little overboard on the products you used - just based on my limited understanding but the atmosphere - depressive and rainy probably wasn’t conducive to good hits either.

I think you must have been intimidating to people which caused many of the re-actions you received. I get this impression for several reasons - firstly you state ‘I didn’t really feel all that “open” to talk to people’ - by projecting this into the world it’s likely that people reciprocated the feeling.

Some of the people you mentioned ignored you - a sign of intimidation and some repeatedly said ‘sir’ - a sign of respect - both signs of high status. This is supported by the guy that felt tense and wouldn’t make eye contact - this was likely an alpha male type response as you intimidated him or he felt threatened.

The girl who left again sounded like she may have been intimidated by your presence. You mention speaking with a girl at the coffee shop / bank. These may have felt the affects of your presence as well however they would have been compelled to communicate and treat you with respect regardless as a customer - once you engaged them in communication the affects of the social products would have enabled them to communicate with less affect of intimidation so this is where InstantShine and InstantOpenness would have been most effective.

Anyway, based on your comments that’s my analysis of the responses you got in your report. The last reactions seem strange and I wouldn’t hazard a guess as too exactly what happened there. Again once you opened communication with one of the women the socials may have kicked in but not affected her friend - maybe due to the weather? Someone else have a suggestion!

On your mix, I haven’t used these products yet so I would wait for further advise or browse around. From what I understand though Turn up the Heat is quite an aggressive product in many ways, it’s intended for use in places like clubs more than coffee shops. I also haven’t really heard of people mixing A314 and Ammo. My advice moving forwards would be to try without the Turn up the Heat. You may need to drop either A314 or Ammo as well but I don’t know about this.

Anyway long rant over :slight_smile: Looking forward to hearing how you get on next time!
