Well so far mostly old men and the old woman today, no sexy girls yet, but it is a sign of me projecting something different atleast.
I probably mentioned one reason I was scared to use PM was I thought i'd be really moody, aggressive, glaring at people, get into tons of confrontations and arguments like on AM.. but i'm not. I'm more calm, and actually more accepting of people. Some people I just didn't really care for i've engaged with and found things I like about them that I wouldn't have before.
I've never run AM, but I agree that PM is nothing like I expected it to be. I was also hesitant to run it at first because I thought it might bring out aggressive savage tendencies. It doesn't. I actually felt more aggressive and temperamental while running US than I do with PM. PM brings out a sense of warmth in me. Even when I'm confronting someone, it's like I'm either (1) a caring father figure disciplining a child, or (2) a concerned, well-respected friend. There's an exchange that results in productive confrontations versus two beasts scrapping it out. Using a pheromone analogy: I expected Androstenone, but I'm experiencing Androsterone.
As far as the "too good to be true" thing goes, just roll with it and see what happens. Some of my initial experiences with PM have morphed into something more subtle and consistent. At some point you'll get a better sense of where it lands.
As a side note, I recently quit using all forms of caffeine. That has helped me settle deeper into PM. If anxiety is a problem, that might be worth considering.
