I had a short instance of drug abuse in HS(Not weed or any of that gay edible shit) and have never touched any substances since. Although tempted, I won't ever bother with anything again unless its nicotine or alcohol but in select amounts.

All I can say is that I've felt empty ever since. Life without drugs is no good.

Never. I don't smoke or drink. I prefer to remain lucid. There are two ways of coping with existence: you can either render yourself less conscious through the use or abuse of various substances, or you can remain sober and overcome your suffering through the expansion of consciousness. The latter has always struck me as the more attractive method.

Very rarely. I have one friend who I sometimes drink beer with when we go to concerts or the cinema but never to the point of being drunk. I used to like to drink hard liquor every few months but the last two times were rather disappointing and I always feel subtly nauseous the day after. I'll probably do it again around Christmas though when I'm at my parents and everyone's asleep and I'm alone in our comfy living room.

On New Years' Eve, and occasionally when I go to these weird brewery sports bars my father-in-law loves that he calls "gastropubs." They are hipster-y and put fennel in their coleslaw for some reason, and sometimes the beer has a higher ABV than expected.

Rendering yourself less conscious is not always a bad thing. I was nervous to approach women and probaby would have fucked up from self-consciousness. Drinking got rid of that, I made out with some girls at clubs, my confidence went up, I needed drink less and less to get laid and now I don't even need it. I'm all around happier with life, and therefore I don't waste time on that and can focus more time on reading and writing for pleasure.

Tell me again how it would have been better to remain conscious during the whole process, probably fucked up at the beginning, ruined my self esteem and been even more nervous to do it again, and maybe ended up never socialising and being isolated (some people stay that way for decades).

You could say that I would have appreciated the journey more if I'd done it lucid, win or lose, from the start, but I don't care about that journey, I wanted to be able to get laid when I want so I can get it off my mind and just write.

If your mind and body has you stuck in a loop, drugs can override your reflexes so you can do what you actually want to do, and so help you function long enough to get the ball rolling until the positive feedback kicks in and you don't need them anymore.

Interesting. I've taken benzos for a long time and have always used them responsibly, but I've seem them go from getting handed out like candy to nearly impossible to get without seeing a psychiatrist, and they don't like giving it out anymore either. I've never taken more than .5 a day but I do enjoy them. Have heard a lot of stories about rebound anxiety, which is worrisome. I refuse to take SSRIs though since I've never had depression, but unfortunately there doesn't seem to be anything inbetween for anxiety.

I have a flat near the club circuit in my city so I have easy access to a lot of clubs and bars, foreign white girls aren't usually fat. Clubs nearly always have a bad gender ratio though so I can't always get laid if I literally can't find a decent girl who's single. Actually getting better at talking to girls irl like a normie can get you casual girlfriends though, just ask them out if they show obvious interest, do it enough times and you get success. But this is what I meant by getting the ball rolling, I've had enough successes that I don't care about rejection so I do it more frequently and that means better chances of success.

Literally just out in life, if you're waiting in line next to a cute girl for a book from the library at uni, or waiting for coffee, or if there's a cute girl serving you somewhere or sits next to you on transport. Bars usually have cuter women who are out to socialise but can take more balls to actually approach one that's alone, but you can fall in to conversation the same way, waiting for a drink at the bar or something.

>>13903278
You have to flirt and you have to move things on quickly. You need to know when she's actually flirting too, because that's feedback about what kind of moves you can make. Look at some guides to flirting and what's known as indicators of interest from the pickup community, you might think they're autists but they have a lot of material and ideas. You just need to look at enough of it and it'll become clear what's bullshit memes and what's simple obversations.

If depends what the situation is. If it's a club you don't really even talk, make eye contact until a girl smiles at you, then dance, make excuses to dance more closely and see how she responds, then make moves to start making out. Bring up the idea of getting out of there and going to yours when she's most turned on.

If it's a bar and you're actually talking, then flirt and make interesting conversation until she's making obvious signs she's hot for you, then you might either start making out or start dancing at a dance floor if there is one. Sometimes people move girls to clubs after this, just for an hour, before taking them back to their place, it's a bit intense to go from dancing in a bar to literally going and fucking so unless the girl is literally asking you to fuck her, a club is needed.

If you're talking to a girl in the daytime then your goal is to just get her on a date, so all it takes is a bit of nice conversation and a few jokes she responds well to and ask for her number. Same goal is in mind after this, you just do it over the course of a few dates rather than a few hours. First date something fun where you can get to know eachother, bonus points if you get to make physical contact a lot. Second date either more of the same or something fancier like a restaurant. Third date something with more potential to escalate physically. But you have to judge how the girl is responding, it might take more dates, it might take fewer, and you should really focus on having fun yourself, it isn't an exam, it's meant to be fun, if the girl won't put out and you're getting tired of it drop her.

If you're getting friendzoned it's because you're talking too much without flirting. Girls have no idea you're even interested in them unless you flirt, they'll think you're just nice. You have to decide if you want to be friends or want to date them. Once you're zoned it's mostly too late.
