It’s a drag.

It really is. So much so that I’m listening to Cinderella’s Greatest Hits. (80s Glam Rock).

I’ll be okay though because I’ve learned a lot this past weekend.

Smile all day and all night at the beautiful people

I’ve learned is to smile. You will freak any stranger/girl out if you don’t smile. Creepy happens to me all the time and usually I’m the one that’s creeping.

You can also apply this to sales. I did it all weekend at Foco Comic Con and have cash in my pocket and some dollars in my PayPal.

This website is hot like a fire

I really like Playing Fire.

The PUA guru there is a big stud with a broken nose and he lays it out for me and you on how to send text Tinder messages while he’s living in Miami, Florida.

I believe his stuff works but some tweaking will definitely be involved over the next couple of weeks for me to figure out Tinder and regular texting.

Social media game for everyone

I will probably try what I’ve learned from Playing Fire with Facebook and Instagram. You know what I mean? I’m bored.

It’s a match so I un-match

But these scammers are really good at matching up with me on Tinder and I don’t know what that’s all about.

It’s all about who you know

Have you ever seen someone you know on Twitter?

I have. I might message them anyway.

We’ve gong Platinum an it’s not the die antwoord (the Answer in south African)

I have Tinder Platinum and you get like several “super likes” like 5 and you need more and then you’re going to pay $1.50 per. I could go down to Gold next month and just learn how to send messages that get a reply. YouTube University it is.

Tinder or not to Tinder

Embarrassing myself on the street and saying hi to women all day long is on my agenda and I really get fearful and shy. One guy, James Marshall, has great vids on this. You have to wave at your prey like an idiot, smile and say you look wonderful and introduce yourself. So simple, right? No, it’s hard!

Some resources that I’m going to start checking out this week.

Bored to death so Choose life

I’m so bored in my social life that I have to experiment with everything.

Don’t worry I will keep blogging away, too.
