Quote: Also quick question, I've heard there's a component on improving verbal flirting skills. Did you notice any improvements on your verbal flirting skills?I have noticed some improvements. However, that applies to those that I already know to a degree (eg. some of my female salsa friends and a few Hooties, and a couple of coworkers). I have some resistance to a degree when it involves 'new' women.
Which brings me to the last day of stage 3 for me. I begin stage 4 tomorrow.
I'll try to think of what went on with stage 3 for me
- A lot of sleepless nights. Apparently a lot went on with stage 3 for me.
- A bunch of negative thoughts came up with regards to women and "why am I doing this?" Resistance...
- More relaxed feeling, overall but at times still in my head thinking too much.
- Very little desire to pursue but in all honesty, I have yet to find a woman around where I live that is worth pursuing. But then again, I listen to Brent (never EVER pursue!) Smith.
- I really like the Brent Smith type "story" affirmation approach so I will continue on with that. It actually puts me in a good mood when I do use those stories so why not? It helps with visualizing!
- The vivid dreams continue. Occasionally the dreams are sexual.
- Getting to know the neighbours that come to the swimming pool or gym. At this time, it's actually rather challenging because all of my life, I have kept to myself and never made a big effort to step out of my comfort zone and do something like that. The last thing I want to get labeled is to be labeled as a stuck up snob and most people tend to think if one doesn't speak, he's stuck up (negative) vs being quiet or shy (not so negative).
Get your pickles!!!
