A Better Alex, stage 1: EPRHA Journal

[apollolux]

Good luck man.

So you mean these people who are being cordial to you were more standoffish before or ignored you? That's a good result to start

Thanks, I'll need it. The gym girls were more standoffish before, but are now more cordial during the first 7 days. I would love to attribute it to motivational audio, but the timing coincides with me being 4 inches slimmer, 20 pounds lighter, and approaching a six-pack. The online chat girl has always been friendly to me, but she's in eastern Europe while I'm in NYC.

The classmate friend, on the other hand, flips between hot and cold. She's a Russian immigrant who latched on to me hard starting in September but claims she's not interested in me. She's the reason I'm here in the first place: gain the self-confidence, aura, and, yes, the swagger needed to make it as easy as possible for her to say yes to me. She's why I wanted to start with ASC instead of EPRHA, because I have a limited time with her around; basically, once we graduate college in about a year and a half she says she'll move to California or something. She's the reason I'm still alive today after what happened to me in October, and it helps that she's gorgeous, so of course I want her around as more than a friend. Why wouldn't I? And why shouldn't I do whatever I can to make it as easy as possible for that to happen?
