End of week update:
Spent a shit ton of money this week. I purchased a camera (used EOS R), tripod, lens + adapter, wireless remote, bomber jackets, and ray ban shades.
At least I’ll be able to write off the camera gear for tax purposes and I saved hundreds thanks to cyber week.
Due to these purchases I only added 130 to the stock portfolio this week, which continues to grow at a pretty fast rate all on its own.

Hit a 240 incline bench press PR. Will try and add another rep this coming week and then I believe I’ll start prioritizing another one of my main lifts (weighted chin ups)

The new hinge profile that I created after getting banned is still live, but it hasn’t received a single like after a week. I’m using the same pics as before (which got good results on hinge and still getting good results my other apps) just flipped and superficially edited a bit. Makes me think that something fishy is going on. Even expanded my search radius etc. and still nothing. Will tinker with it some more and see what happens next week. Mind you I’m still using the same iphone but with a different number so maybe that’s a potential cause. Still I thought that shadowbanning wasn’t a thing so I’m not really sure what to think.
One interesting thing though is that when I flipped my pics to try and fool the algorithm I noticed that I didn’t like them as much (I think my face looks weird) but I figured that it was probably just because I was used to seeing them the other way. You guys tell me, is it just me or does the flipped profile pic below look worse?
Anyway I’ve still been playing around with alternative ways of messaging girls to do photoshoots (that won’t result in me getting insta-banned). Not awesome results but sometimes something like this will happen:

On another note I wanted to shoutout the Radical style course which I’m a part of. For anyone on the fence about joining I can 100% recommend. For example the sunglasses I purchased this week, I went into the mall and tried on a bunch of pairs and posted pictures of everything online in the facebook group and got feedback the very same day helping me to make my decision (he went through and commented on every picture). Would have been extremely difficult to figure this out on my own, but instead it all got sorted out in one afternoon.
There’s lots of cool guys in the group posting questions and pictures of their outfits each day and helping each other out. It’s really invaluable to be getting advice from a tribe of guys that get laid and know how to dress well. And Radical absolutely is the real deal and a legit expert on dressing to get attention from hot women. His style advice def helped me with my dating results.
On top of this the video course that’s included is epic. Very detailed with lots examples and links to find everything he recommends.

ProfBloodThirst Thanks man, glad you got something out of this mess of a log. I’ve got a whole lot more to do before I consider prioritizing LTR’s but I can def see the appeal. And yeah sometimes the sex itself does feel a little overrated but I think for me the ultimate reward is stepping out of my comfort zone, socializing, and doing everything I can to level up. But even this week I hit a point where I felt a little burnt out/disillusioned so I know what you mean.
And yes I’m aware you’re not supposed to flush condoms haha. I’ll try and be better about it.
You have a great goal. Please keep us posted on your progress with that.

NightRoller Thats awesome man, let me know if you tweak it any further and find something that works even better. It’s a great opener though because it doesn’t give the girl any opportunity to waste your time or string you along. If her answer to that second message is anything other than an enthusiastic “yes I’m in!” or “that sounds amazing!” I won’t spend another second on her.
