Hi all,

Orbster here, 41 (nearly) recently single guy living in Bournemouth.

Split with my ltgf who I foolishly thought was 'The One' and looking to get acquainted with The Game in a big way.

Although tall, dark and handsome; my track record with women is shocking and the average 16 year old probably has more notches on their bedpost than I.

I'm in good shape, scrupulously hygienic, a snappy dresser, intelligent, cheeky, witty and love banter but have always been described as a 'Nice Guy' and I now realise that has been my only handicap with women as on paper; I'm the average womans wet dream.

Over the last couple of months I have read so many books on relationships;

What to Say When You Talk to Yourself - Dr Shad Helmstetter
Gorilla Mindset - Michael Cernovich
Awaken the Giant Within
The Way of the Superior Man - David Deida

And a few other related bit and bobs in between.

Each and every one of these books pretty much point in the same direction and I now consider myself reasonably well informed on the mysteries surrounding relationships that quite honestly have baffled me since childhood.

My confidence is sky high and I now am totally trusting of my gut instinct as all the way through my last relationship, I just ignored it and eventually I was blown out when I should have paid more attention to it.

I've yet to increase my number but to be honest, I'm quite happy just doing my own thing, going at my own pace and employing a 'trial and error' based approach. I'm out on the town tomorrow night and I'm going to give the 'cocky-funny/negging' approach a go as I've always been very quick witted and never afraid of a bit of cheeky banter but it never occurred to me that this could be used as a seduction technique.

I look forward to posting field reports as and when I can,

Peace to all the players
