Alcohol...

[CarterCarver]

Hello everyone.

I am going to be a senior in high school next year (yay almost done!). I have a medical condition which prevents me from drinking or smoking (I may be able to smoke in the future), and am worried about the effects this will have on my college social life. I very much want to join a frat (for both business connections, social fun, and girl connections but I know this will be difficult with my condition. I also have been reading many field reports lately and have noticed that the majority of them involve alcohol in one form or another. Being that I am young, alcohol is not essential to pickup yet, but I am worried for the future.

Any opinions are welcome and helpful.

Thanks!

Hey TallnAwk,

Alcohol is in no way essential for pick up.

It has it's advantages, such as plausible deniability when you're bringing a girl home, and other such uses, but it's really not necessary. If you're worried about going to a party and people judging you because you're not drinking, just make sure you're a fun person to be around and that you're as high energy as they are and it really won't make a difference.

I'm actually going sober for a while to make some major changes/advances in my game. Sober actually allows you to think as efficiently as you possibly can.

Jake-

Thanks for your response. Do you have any advice for no alcohol and college social life? (Fraternities and such).

I'm going to experiment with this pretty soon, actually.

You're gonna' have to try it yourself and see unless you want to wait three months for me to come back to you for an answer (that's how long I'm going sober - but I'm still going to be partying hard).

My theoretical solution now is to just match their energy levels. I figure if I can do it while under the influence there's really nothing stopping me from doing it with a clear head - in fact it should be easier, I've done it a few times before.

It's gonna' be about sensing vibes, which you can only get by being in the moment and experiencing it.

I'm 21 and in college and I never drink but hang out with people that do.

Alcohol for picking up women is bullshit and not necessary.

If you join a frat you'll probably have more peer pressure to drink I assume but I'm not in one so I do not know.

Develop a fun personality sober and learn how to pump your emotional state while in night time social environments and you'll be fine.

But yeah it's not necessary. Read any of my lay reports (the past 8 were all night game pulls) and I'm sober in all of them.

Good luck.

Jake, Mr. Rob-

Thank you so much. I will try raising my energy levels (I'm going to start learning to become a BMOC).

You have alleviated many of my fears

It's fine to not drink or not need to or want to... but it all comes down. To how people perceive you.

I can just use examples of 2 girls I know:

One was actually a housemate. She always came out but never drank. She'd make a point though how funny it was to watch us get drunk and painstakingly remind everyone of the things they did or said the night before to the point none of us wanted her there anymore.
Some other people just keep mentioning how they don't drink or act very boring or just make anyone drinking feel uncomfortable around them as they feel judged.

On the other hand I know a girl who I didn't even notice didn't drink for about a year. One night I asked if she wanted a drink and she said she didn't drink. I just never realized. She was the life of the party and had fun with everyone. Her not drinking was a personal thing and never felt the need to make it known to anyone unless asked.

Be more like the 2nd person here and there's really no problem.

Estate-

Thank you. Examples always help me to learn. I will be more energetic in the future. My biggest problem is if I'm at a small kickback, and everyone decided to play beer pong or rage cage. I find that in larger games where literally everyone is playing, it is more difficult to be lively of I'm not playing.

Thoughts?
