1 spray of IG, 1 spray of IS (2), 1 spray of IO (2).
Event: Took a friend out to swimming. Main subject for experiment is friend, collateral subjects, any woman in and around the pool area or working as staff.
Self-effect: Was cloudy outside and felt a bit under the weather before leaving to pick up my friend. After putting on social pheromones IS, IO and IG, felt like I had a cup of coffee and was more perceptive of my surroundings and felt as though a light bulb had come on.
It would be interesting to try IO as a standalone - and perhaps pherobomb myself once with IO to see what type of effect it has. Not sure if this self-effect is attributable to IO, IS, or IG. However, don’t want to waste sprays unless there is also a chance I can test it with other people.
Effect-on-friend: Edginess was gone and felt in a relaxed state when picking her up. Felt the “personal space” between her and me was somehow reduced as she walked next to me inside the swim place. Usually, you can feel a bit of a personal distance, or she may be walking a few feet away.
She gave me a business contact and we sat next to each other in some parts of the sauna or pool, but other times were apart.
In terms of chatter – the effect reported earlier that she would speak non-stop with IO (1 strength) on has not been reported with (2 strength). Would have to experiment with 1 IS and 1 IO to evaluate how that effects chatter.
Otherwise, everything is the same with nothing major to report about. It’s rather a non-physical type of friendship in the extreme. Therefore, I’d probably play with TUTH on a mix next time with her just for kicks. Start with 1 spray and then move it up to 3 and mix it with IG/IS – really do it with the “masculine” vibes mixes.
I am more comfortable playing with the pheromone products and realizing that there is no real adverse reaction, and most of the time, I don’t really notice there is anything dramatic about them.
Collateral-effect: Did not notice anything really “wow”, out of the ordinary. In fairness, I didn’t really make an obvious attempt to interact with anyone and think I may be sending physical signals that would be incongruent with the pheromone mix I’ve been trying.
Since I’m really a “leave me alone, I’m busy” type of persona, which is what I have on all of the time, it’s sort of difficult to crack that. Maybe I have to try phero-bombing myself with IO (2) and IS (2) (i.e. try two sprays before a social), or 3-4 IO (2). However, I wouldn’t pherobomb or overuse pheromones to look for collateral hits during a day as that would be too wasteful.
However, as a good direction, if I were to make further investments with Adriotics to try out pheromones, I’d say I may see myself buying Instant Openness and Instant Shine since this “leave me alone, I’m busy” persona is seen as the biggest sticking point to my game. I have to “relax myself” and have a portrayal that I’m cool but personable and approachable. Not sure which mixes would accomplish that. Want to see how IO works as a stand-alone though.
Also, where I sprayed my wrists with the stuff is inside the pool most of the time so I don’t think there would be any diffusion in water anyway.
NEXT: Dial Magnetic Soap.
Feel I’m wasting too much of an expensive (on postage) soap for casual use. Again, don’t think wasting expensive products to get some collateral hit in the course of daily activities is the best use of a pheromone product and think it’s wasteful.
May just hold on to Dial when I’m going to a social event.
Right now there is no perceptiable self-effect on it, and not obvious or direct hits from any girl since wearing it.
