Preparing for BootCamp

[Dapper Swindler]

How can an AFC voted "most shy" in high school succeed in bootcamp? I may be shy, but I'm much more desperate to change into a confident DJ. And even though I've never had a girlfriend, I've come far from where I was in high school. I'm now 23.

So now I'm getting ready for bootcamp. I know it will be hard so I didn't want to begin it on a whim. I'll continue to read articles on this site and prepare myself for the undescribably horrors of saying hello to strangers.

As reccomended, bootcamp will begin on Thursday. I will update my progress daily. Until then, support and advice will be greatly appreciated.

Also, I found that the links on the bootcamp document are broken? Do those topics still exist?

That's some funny ****, dunno if it's just the codeine I'm taking for my ankle or if all you social misfits are into this bootcamp. (No Offence) I tell what to do, DO it the MISTER HASH way; grab a few drinks at a bar, build up some dutch courage and approach some average girls. Once you get a few fvcks under your belt you'll feel like you can approach some higher par honeyz.

Fvck all this say 50 hi's in one week sh!t, then next week say how you doing 43 times. Lame.

You wanna know a little secret. If you go this bootcamp route you'll be lucky to get a root in TEN ****ING YEARS. It's like this, you know as a kid when you went to swimming lessons. There are the kids that jump straight in the water, hurts at first but they soon get used to it and love it. Then they're are the pvssy ass kids that go in toe first then the ankle then up to their knees.. By this time Swimming lesson is over and the kids that dived straight in had a blast while the little siccy mamas boys are saying "ohhh I didn't even get to swim.."

It's nice to see that you want to make a change, whoever, don't go through the bootcamp if you want a quick change. Read Senor Finger's post "Weapons of Mass Seduction" and go out and apply those. That'll help you immensly.

Good luck.

The DJ method of boot camp is just to damn excrutiatingly slow.

Go to a bar/night club and approach 12 sets PER NIGHT, 3 nights a week. At around set 200, you'll start to feel actually COMFORTABLE and definitely more advanced in your social skills. That's week 6 of the PUA boot camp. Faster if you go out more than 3 nights per week.

Because of my work schedule, I can't really go out and do that. I think maybe a bootcamp needs to be modified to your age and lifestyle. I live on a massive college campus so saying hello to people on my way to classes is probably best for me.

As far as jumping into the deep end. The first week of boot camp is as deep as I can attempt. Don't forget, I am not only claiming to be shy but I have an award to prove it. Honestly, I would rather stick my hand in a garbage disposal than say hello to a stranger. However, I would rather say hello to a stranger than live another day with the life that I have.

Can someone please tell me why the links on the bootcamp document are broken?

there broken? i've looked at them b4 and they were fine.

you need to have confidence dude, and then you will be able to "jump in the deep end"

i've gone from AFC to almost DJ in about a month. read all these threads, and stay away from the bs. best to read the dj bible too.

apply all the steps from the bootcamp/bible to your own lifestyle
skip some if necessary, but make it work 4 u

i did, and look where i am now. i'm fully confident in myself, i'm not shy n e more, and i dont let things like rejection get me down. i am happy, and women can see that- and that makes me more attractive

women dont like sad pessimistic ppl, they want someone who is confident, and structured, and happy. sad ppl bring everyoen down, so be happy, be confident, and play your game!

All the links take me to a "missing" page. Here are a few of them.

thats all you need man

its all there, download the whole thing and its on ur comp! i had the same problem you did, so i hope this helps man, and good luck on the BC! im currently between weeks 2-3, so ill be sure to follow urs if u decide to go throug hwith it, and i would recommend you do, the first few weeks may seem pointless to some but its a good stepping stone to week 3-4 where u start to get some numbers and set up dates, so wats 2 weeks out of your life to get a lil practice?


and read Waldens bootcamp journal if u have the time, just do a search, its LONG but i thought it was worth it

I went to my first class today very early. I was one of the first few people there. I thought if I was early it would give me plenty of time to talk to people. One of the few next people who came in after me was a girl I started a conversation with last class. She sits alone, far away from me, which was more than a little discouraging. Then as more people pour in, they all try to sit by themselves. Since it is a full class it became impossible, however no one would sit next to me. I have no idea why. By the time class started the only two empty seats in the room were to my right and left. All I did was sit there with open posture and try to look pleasant. It really sucked
Then in my next class I did the same thing. Again no one would sit next to me. In fact one guy actually picked up the chair on my right and moved it so he could sit with someone else.
I guess all I can do is try not to go so early so that I can choose who I sit with. Anyway, it has been really discouraging and bootcamp is not looking good.

Damn man..........don't be disheartened. Next time, just go and sit next to someone instead of waiting for them to come to you.

Here's a cool bootcamp prep story.

I went with some friends to Buffalo Wild Wings tonight. I started joking with my friend that I would buy him six wings if he would ask the waitress out. He said no, and I said that I would do it. Then I had three people betting against me that I wouldn't do it. That's 18 wings. So for the next two hours tension was building that I was going to ask her out. And you know how the longer you think about something the harder it becomes. But when she finally brought back the receipt I asked her out cold. There wasn't any chit chatting before this so it was complete balls. I don't need to tell you what she said, but the point was that I was able to do it. Also I get 18 wings, it's win win!

Well tomorrow is the big day and I'm already nervous.

It just seems so unnatural to say hello to a stranger. I think it's because no one has ever done that to me. No one has approached me, no one has shown any interest. And frankly I've never seen anyone else approach a stranger either.

I'll do the best I can.
