Hi,
I can completely relate to your experience -- my advice, man, is to ride the wave!
Here's the deal -- I started with AYPSL a couple of months ago, switching after about a month to BIATBW. Briefly, I started AYPSL (4G) as I was emerging from a very difficult period in life. I'll leave it at that. Within three weeks, I was getting asked out, no kidding. I ended up switching (alas, just before the 5G upgrade) because I felt I was "laser locked" on finding one person and somehow couldn't motivate at some level to pursue anyone lesser (if you will) than the "PSL.". Given that I just turned 45, I thought it best to broaden the scope. (Shameless pitch to Shannon -- any way to bump this up on the upgrade list??!!
I'd say you're moving in the right direction. One thing I've not seen commented on too much are the collateral benefits that accrue with the subs -- after months of job searching, I landed a new job. And my supervisor is a woman -- go figure, huh? What I'm on about is that the process involves broad changes to one's psyche that would appear to affect positively many aspects of one's life. For my own part, I feel much more like my old self, not questioning myself or seeking validation so much. This is something that goes far beyond most conceptions of confidence.
Keep at it -- it sounds like things are moving forward for you! At 45, I have to adhere to some reality principle to the effect that the interns half my age are just very friendly. I expect you can give yourself a little more breadth in terms of inference! You've likely given some thought already, but considering who might be the PSL for you in actuality might serve you. Don't feel the need to hem yourself in with details, but you might want to have a rough idea of how to receive your PSL.
All the best,
Tim
