intro post

So, I'm new to being active in this community (and new to the DFW area), although I've known about it for years. Other issues in my life prevented me from really getting the most out of it and, frankly, I just wasn't ready. Maybe I'll explain that in detail another time.

Anyways, that probably sounds a bit weird considering I just turned 30 and some guys are damn good by the time they're 20. Thing is, it's not like I was a failure with women before (I've dated some incredible women and even a model once) - I just have no idea how they came into my life. Every once in a blue moon, some really hot, really smart girl would decide she likes me and...that was that.

Problem is, I never felt I could generate results for myself. It was all by chance and, while just by chance alone I did okay for myself, I realized life is too short to let things happen to me and take whatever I can get.

The good side to being somewhat older is that I've dealt with all my existential angst and searching for self. I like who I am, I don't give a shit who doesn't and I don't need girls to validate me. I've traveled, been through school and have managed to land my dream job that pays well. I can honestly say that I no longer feel like a little boy, but an actual man. So, really, the vast majority of my life is in good shape - but I'm tired of passing sultry, smoldering brunettes in my life and watching them fade into the distance.

After looking over many aspects of the community, it's my personal opinion that Zan and Razorjack are the two men who are make the most sense. Then again, I'm a student not a master...so I'm open minded to all information.


What are my principles with regards to this area of life?


- I'm not a misogynist. I love women.

- I have no interest in putting notches in my bedpost. After a thorough analysis of my motivations, I realized what really moves me is having a genuine connection with a woman.

- I believe in authenticity. Persona's are bullshit. I believe a man should be the best version of who he is, not the best version of someone else. No woman should ever make him compromise that.


Anyways, I don't have an ego and I'm willing to learn from others provided they're ethical and willing to be helped as well. I don't plan on doing much keyboard jockeying. I want to meet up in person and learn from and with others here. It should be fun and, if it isn't, we'll make it fun.

Looking forward to it,

-Parametric

Wrong forum for this thread Welcome to the board. There are tons of people that are good resources to learn from and tons of people that frequently get out. See you around.

Yeah, I should've put it in the "intros" section, but clicked general instead. My bad.

I'm curious: how often to guys from this site get together and go out or just meet to talk or whatever?

I believe the board tries to have a meetup every few weeks but you can find more details in the Events section. People will often post when and where they are going out so people can join them. I assume after a few meets you find several people you click with and go from there.
