Appreciate it man. Long road yet but I have fight in me ;-)
Of course, I study a Spanish program for one hour per day, and then I spent 30 mins writing out phrases I would use for me to memorise them. I then spend 30 mins watching Spanish TV, so it's a commitment of 2 hr per day. The Spanish program I use is called Metodo and is like 10 dollars on Udemy, but you can also download Michel Thomas Method or Pimsleur, they're all the same thing.
Thanks for your post it means a lot.
Thank you Sam, I truly appreciate the support.SamJ_ wrote: ↑Tue Jun 22, 2021 11:18 pmI really love reading your progress man. I watched your podcast with Andy today and it's really really inspirational. I really hope you have success with everything you're after. I'm also a beginner with approaching and I was also wondering about your approaches. You said most of the girls you approach completely ignore you, so I was wondering how you're approaching. Are you just saying hi, or are you telling them they're attractive, then asking them what they're up to and trying to start a conversation? Just curious because I used to just say hi to a ton of girls hoping they'd wanna talk to me and got ignored pretty much every time. But when I started calling them attractive straight up, and always had the objective of asking them out and getting their number and/or snapchat or something, they usually haven't been ignoring me completely (although tons of rejections haha). Biggest thing (which I'm still working on too) is to be direct in your approaches and always approach in a way where the girl pretty much has to acknowledge you, even if it's a really brutal rejection.
Well, we talked about this on the call last night. We think there may be a cultural issue here, because the English folks I spoke to were super cool and we talked for hours, they invited me for drinks, etc, but the Canarian people are absolute cunts. They simply don't interact with you. I am approaching all of them directly.
As such, I am cutting this AirBNB short by a month and heading to the South of the Island which is very touristy and I will approach there. Note, I have done cold approach before, 7 years ago, and can generally talk to people. My experience here is super strange and we think it's a cultural thing. I will do what I can to salvage the trip and I think I will have better luck in connecting with the tourists as opposed to the native people.
I am grinding hard with weight loss man, I weighed 226.0 this morning, and the rest will fall off too. However, I do have some fat on my body. In my opinion, women will not cut a man any slack, we must come in shape, well put together, and be able to compete with the best. Or be left to rot. I will keep showing up every day and bust my ass. We could get bitter and resentful or we can accept reality and work even harder.MattsCrib wrote: ↑Wed Jun 23, 2021 12:10 amI'm kinda curious too since probably you and me both can say that he is NOT unattractive.
