OLD Reflection:
My OLD profile is… not good (See: This logs page 11 without the BDSM pic) I need to take new pics. I read Mangas guide and it’s eye opening, I need a whole new profile ASAP.
I’m genuinely thinking about paying my cousin 100€-200€ so he’ll be properly motivated to take pics with me. He’s the one that took my current profile pic on here as well btw.
I know he’s not a professional photographer, but he has a very good IPhone camera, plus we’re cousins, we’ll figure it out together.
Thoughts on this?
I think this is better than paying a pro, as I can take pics with him whenever I want.

Drivers License Update:
My theoretical drivers license exam is scheduled for October 10, so I have exactly 20 days to study. More than enough if I study a little each day.
Probably gonna study for 1 hour a day.

If you have a good connection with your cousin, he should probably do it for free. Maybe you can help him with something as a favour for taking photos?Crimson wrote: ↑Mon Sep 19, 2022 9:37 pmOLD Reflection:

You shouldn't be paying anyone who doesn't have previous experience. There are pro photographers that charge only a bit more than that.Crimson wrote: ↑Mon Sep 19, 2022 9:37 pmI’m genuinely thinking about paying my cousin 100€-200€ so he’ll be properly motivated to take pics with me.

I actually haven't set the photoshoot up yet, but I will.FormalBox wrote: ↑Tue Sep 20, 2022 12:42 pmGood job on setting up the photoshoot!
What type of photos will you be taking? Are you using any photos/ people / instagrammers as inspiration?
Given you're using an iphone, maybe you can also slightly blur the background for some of the shots to see how it looks? ie set a lower aperture?
I getting inspiration from Mangas guide (9 lays in 6 weeks) and Andy's photo inspiration article. I specifically am going for "fuckboy" vibes like Manga suggested.
Pics I want to take:
-fuckboy pic, me shirtless but with jean jacket and chain
-hobby pic, me playing basketball
-social pic, me with friends at bar
-dog pic, me petting a dog
-silly pic, me playing pink princess guitar
And yes I can blur the background, the Iphone also has "portrait mode" where the background is automatically blurry.

Yeah I feel that and we do, I'll ask him if there's something I can do for him in exchange.kratjeuh wrote: ↑Tue Sep 20, 2022 1:06 pmIf you have a good connection with your cousin, he should probably do it for free.

Ok thanks I won't, I might have to look into some pro photographers in my area instead.pancakemouse wrote: ↑Tue Sep 20, 2022 1:37 pmYou shouldn't be paying anyone who doesn't have previous experience.

It’s really frightening for me, but yeah fear is not an excuse. I pussy out on apancakemouse wrote: ↑Wed Sep 21, 2022 8:37 pmWhat is stopping you from approaching more? 5? How about 10?
lot of girls, it took me 6 hours last time to talk to just 7.
My biggest fear is people seeing me approach and seeing me get rejected.

It's funny how much our brains lie to us trying to keep us "safe", because instead of people seeing you as some loser who got rejected, in reality they are much more likely to see you as a brave and healthy man who had the courage and confidence to ask for what you wanted!

Yeah, it’s funny how it works like that. Even if someone saw me as a loser, they would obviously never come up to me and say that. The latter is probably more likely as you said, though.Manly Cockfellow wrote: ↑Thu Sep 22, 2022 12:16 pmIt's funny how much our brains lie to us trying to keep us "safe", because instead of people seeing you as some loser who got rejected, in reality they are much more likely to see you as a brave and healthy man who had the courage and confidence to ask for what you wanted!

25.000 Dollar bank loan?
It does sound pretty ridiculous as I’m typing it. I made a video log, but for some reason I can’t attach it.
Anyways it’s just an idea, but I‘m grateful for any feedback on this.
I‘m considering:
1. Taking out a $10.000 bank loan in order to move out and live comfortably for a while.
2. After moving out, taking out another $15.000 to become Andy’s 1-on-one coaching client.
My reasoning behind moving out is obvious. I want to be able to go all-in with getting laid, as trying to do so at my parents house has proven to come with it‘s fair share of difficulties.
As for becoming Andy’s coaching client, I’m convinced that I would eventually figure out how to get laid, even without his help, BUT he would MASSIVELY speed up the process.
Paying the money back and logistics:
•I live in a city with roughly 200.000 people, I have big cities (~600.000 people) right beside me as well.
•I will still go to school for 3 more years, which means I won‘t be moving to another city if I do move out.
•I don’t have a full-time job as I’m still going to school, I’ll have to find a part-time job if I do move out.
•They’re cheaper rents for students. I’m still one for 3 years so that’s good.
•I would obviously be $25.000 in debt.
Conclusion:
That’s pretty much it. I have no idea how I would pay that money back, but I’ll just have to chip away at it a bit at a time.
I want to knock out this “getting laid phase” pretty fast (while still enjoying it, of course), because I want to focus on becoming a professional basketball player in the future.
I obviously haven’t worked out any details, but how realistic is this? In my mind, it’s like being $25.000 (or more) in debt after applying to college. All things considered, it’s an investment that I think makes a lot of sense, despite it’s loftiness.

this is literally what andy did as you know and one of my personal inspirations for even being here on this site.
one thing i had when i started that some guys don't was "unlimited" money (i ended up spending around $35,000 over the course of a year moving around, paying double rent, on fashion, eye surgery, escorts, plane tickets, increased living expenses, tinder platinum, unforeseen circumstances as a result of this lifestyle etc etc etc etc).
having already figured out money, i was able to go all in with getting laid and making the required life changes without having to ever say "oh this is too expensive..."
if taking a $10,000 bank loan will allow you to get your own place and focus on going all-in with getting laid and not potentially make "this is too expensive..." excuses then freakin do it
you'll figure out a way to pay back the loan
strongly recommend the $10,000 moving out loan, if you're serious.
...
regarding the additional $15,000 loan for coaching, i think moving out alone should drastically improve your results, given that you won't have to manage parent logistics. it's a larger improvement than you might realize right now. i would do this incrementally and see what results you can get and then consider it
