Video says it all basically. Ye my problem in the start was that I wanted a wingman and tried to drag a friend in it but ended up in a crash cause he didn't want to at least try to make the first step.

Due to my location I have to pretty much go solo but maybe in near future I'll meet up with some great guys.
I can't change the beginning, but hell ye I will change the ending.

I found that none of my AFC friends were open to the idea, their loss. But a few 'naturals' new of it.

A friend said to me, guessing I read it: "look lets be honest, we both like women, it's nothing to be embarrased about"

originally there were 4 of us who started out with this

a week later there were 3

a week later 2

a few years later just me...

to me it is just like going to the gym or martial arts, most people will loose interest, you need to be into it for yourself for the long haul

Definitely good advice. I have found wings while in field. They are good too. They find me as well. Kind of funny

You can get good really fast with a wing who is better than you and willing to teach. I like teaching the newer guys.

Bravo!

Thank you for posting the video. Good stuff for sure. Just hope my lame asking for a wing posts weren’t the catalyst for the video being made : P

Speaking of, how did you decide that this would be the first topic you would cover? i was thinking one idea for deciding on a topic for future videos like this could be to create a poll and put it up somewhere on the site

Something like this here --> http://www.statpac.com/poll/instant_poll.htm - (If you were interested, this site has a pretty easy to follow UI based poll creator that will generate the html for you when you are done creating it)


As for the lack of buddies wanting to be wingmen/learn this stuff, as I talk more and more of my crew on the subject, I'm also finding that they are not very responsive/serious about the whole idea of pickup, and the way more important idea of a lifestyle change for the better. It kills me, because my clique of friends are guys I’ve known for 10-15 years that I actually give a shit about and want to see kick ass in life too.

Most of them are your typical AFCs who have spend 90% of their time in a bar drinking and watching sports, and maybe 10% of their life in a relationship or actively trying pursuing the opposite sex (Not that there’s anything wrong with drinking and watching sports, but it can’t be the ONLY thing you do in life).

As much as I want to see them have an AHA moment that this could change their life though, you can't just make someone get motivated and do something they aren't mentally ready to accept. ..and so be it if takes me longer to achieve my goals without a wing (thus far), but I know I’m at least on the path to being the fucking awesome person I want to be in life.

Good solid advice as always Bravo, interesting that you personally went from 4 guys to just yourself after a few years

What point did the best learning coming?

I like the comprehensive answer to the question but also liked 'Ask Bravo' videos with a quick response to a number of emails too

Peace
