So just to describe myself, I am a 22 year old Asian guy from the East Coast. I've been introduced to pick up in 2004 when I was a 15-16 year old high schooler trying to better myself, especially with girls. At first, I thought all these pick up tactics and routines were just utter BS, but when I started reading more and practicing a little bit, I became more comfortable to pick up. By age 18, I decided to become more serious about this pick up thing. However, I was never successful. My transformation till now has been a very steady process, and throughout life, I've dealt with a lot of limiting beliefs and negative attitudes. Although I had an optimistic mind, I was battling depression, and for those who have had depression before, it is a difficult habit to kick.
From 18 to 20, I was a "part time pick up student." I never quite immersed myself in learning the arts, but I was still practicing and getting better. My path has been VERY rocky. I started practicing a lot on myspace chats, AIM chatrooms, phone texting, and the stuff I've learned through those have been pretty successful. I learned what to say to girls that get their attraction, learned how to sexually escalate through writing, and etc. However, my infield game was never quite as successful, and I never got laid till I was 21. In real life, apart from all the internet/phone game, I was terrible--partly because I had horrible approach anxiety, and partly because of my lack of confidence in myself and my limiting beliefs. Whenever I would go out to bars, whenever I had the guts to approach a girl within seconds, it was either hit or miss according to what my state was that night. In addition, it seemed like I had the perfect lines for my friends to say which worked like a charm whenever they said them. But, I never really seemed to have the guts to say them myself. When I did have success with opening, my next problem was transitioning to small talk and escalating from that. Sometimes, on rare nights, I would be so successful at just transitioning, and then I would hit a wall and just draw blanks. In addition, sometimes there would be long gaps in between me practicing game, so whenever I had a huge breakthrough, I would sometimes take a break from pick up and I would lose them. I know that I have HUGE potential due to this fact though, and I know that if I keep practicing, I will develop them again.
When I was 21, which was last year of 2010, I became a born again Christian and was saved. Now I am not trying to preach here, but I believe this is substantial. I thought that by becoming a Christian I would have to get rid of pick up altogether, but now I feel as if this is not the case. Like I mentioned earlier, I got laid at age 21, but it was really a chance paramour. I met this chick from the internet, and she looked very different from the pictures she showed me. However, I was so desperate to get laid and lose my virginity that I did it anyway. I regretted it TERRIBLY afterwards.
Now why did I mention being a born again Christian? Well, now my goals in pick up are completely different. I am currently in Hawaii at the moment, but I am originally from the east coast, near NYC so I would, God willing, hopefully attend two ABC seminars there. My goals in pick up are to immerse myself in the art of picking up high quality women in any atmosphere point blank period. So I am not opposed to practicing pick up in night clubs or in the streets. I want to have the skills to present myself as a high quality person, and not viewed as an Asian, but as a high quality person in general who just so happens to be Asian. Although my inner game is now very solid, I know that I have room for improvements in this area. I would love to have the ability to unflappable in periods of stress or tests from women (and men either from AMOGGing or life in general). I want to have the ability to be a gentleman with an espresso shot of bad boy, who can take high quality women on dates and have the power in this social exchange. I want to develop my personality and character traits with some added ideas from people who are better than me. I want to develop a high quality social circle, and inject the skills I learn into real world applications.
My physical stats: I am barely 5'5, I am above average in the looks department, I have a good sense of fashion (and if I wasn't broke I would buy more clothes), I am not very well endowed (and it used to be an area of insecurity, but no longer). So all of these were areas of sticking points that caused me AA. I am now nearly complete in erasing all these limiting beliefs, which came as a result of me praying and acting on erasing these beliefs, and now I believe I am ready to conquer the attraction scene to the dating world. I do not want to have sexual liaisons with women because of my Christian belief, but I would love to have the ability to attract high quality women and delicately keep them in the palm of my hands through my personalized character dominance. I am open to learning anything and everything related to the pick up scene other than that however.
Cheers,
Alex
edit: Oh and I also identify with David Deangelo, because of the fact that his methods were very similar to my personality traits in humor. He's really helped me a lot, and I hope to add that to my education at APB's seminars in NYC.
