Stage 3 - Day 30, 2 days left!! I can't wait to start stage 4 and see what kind of crazy shit is gonna happen!!!!!!!!
It's funny.. after I wrote about the scenario with guys being intimidated by me, things changed.
Towards the end of Stage 3 I felt more likely to talk. Not talk like.. much boring small-talk but just socializing a bit more and people became more comfortable with me.
I realized that I needed to show some vulnerability because I was coming off too strong, without really being aware of it.
(Maybe I had some resistance, which could have affected me, to be kind of a douche sometimes)...
Besides the improvement in the awareness of being more human, I am getting better at prioritizing my time in myself much more. When there's a person I'm talking to, I'll intuit that my time is valuable and I'll just do whatever I want and if the person have something to say, they have to say it now or else I am gone (or do not care, because I am in the middle of something). It is unless I am hanging out with the person, there are other things to consider in the context of social dynamics and the kind of relationship we have.
Though I'm much more careless, I do find it backfiring from time to time, when there's a girl I find interesting but somehow I just find it strange if she doesn't leave what she's doing and join me and I'll just leave her when we could have been interacting more and a more excellent outcome would come out of it (not that it matters much).

1. Do whatever you want.. risk whatever your gut tells you because.. you know you have good intentions.
2. Pressure forms the man.
3. Clarity gives space for better decisions.
