Tomorrow is June 1st. I promised myself that I will work my ass off this summer to get in some decent shape. As you can see from the photo, I’m less than “defined”, but most of all, I’m so out of shape. I can’t run any significant distance without feeling faint or getting completely out […]
Alright. Let’s say you got the girl’s number and you want to see her again. How do you go from getting her number to the first date? First of all, it’s important to note that not every girl who gives you their number will go out on a date with you. Again, this is just […]
I’m going to outline what commonly happens when I have a successful cold approach that results in getting a number or a kiss. Obviously, this is just my style and other people have their own way of doing this. I’m not trying to create an army of former Forever Alones that read my content as […]
Thanks to Cromulency on our subreddit, he posted links to an 11 part journal series written by a Berkley girl on OkCupid titled, “Dating for Nice Guys”. The posts were a big hit and has some great advice as to why “Nice Guys” just aren’t attracting women romantically and what you need to do to get […]

This is another Shakedown “original”…Meaning, I highly doubt you will see this on any seduction site or what-not. So you saw it here first!

I just came back from vacation, visiting one of my best friends on the panhandle. It truly was an incredible weekend. We drank and partied with his friends down there for 4 days straight, staying up to watch the sunrise. The crew down there is amazing and I made some great friends. It’s sad returning […]
For anyone who has been following my story, I’ve been seeing this girl who I met at the Mad Men season 5 premiere party. The story of that night and the first date we had are here and here. I just dumped her. Why is this significant? Well, she was the first ‘girlfriend’ I’ve ever had, […]
This is in response to a question by CaptainAlone on how to avoid getting too attached. The idea is that there are one of two perspectives that you can take about having success with women. A position of scarcity. What does it mean to come from a position of scarcity? It means that you believe […]
This is in response to a question by meh_mediocre regarding being introverted and how it affects our self-improvement. Hey this is a great question. I, myself, am very introverted. I took some personality test and I was like 90% introverted or something ridiculous like that. I’m sure most everyone here can relate. We do feel most […]
