This is a thank you to Roosh and G from an 18 year old, for making me the man I am today.

Wow, I've been registered on this forum since 2009. That seems so long ago. I remember how I first discovered Roosh. It was August of '09, and I was 15 years old, clueless about girls yet desperate for some action. I was about to begin my sophomore year of high school - but one thing set me apart from most of my peers.

I was moving with my family from Alexandria, VA, to Buenos Aires, Argentina. My parents wanted us to experience a year abroad, to expose us to something besides the 'ol USA, to set us apart from most kids our age. Upon learning that Argentina was our destination, I immediately devoured all the information I could find about the country's culture and customs. One thing kept coming up in my research; apparently, Argentina had HOT girls. Obviously, this was quite intriguing to me. I think I googled something like "how to pick up argentine girls", and well, that led me to Roosh's posts on the topic.

Before I go any further, I think I should make something clear. At this point in my life, I had no experience with girls. None. 0. Zip. Zilch. I hadn't so much as kissed a girl (although strangely enough, I had already gotten two girls to send me nude pics via txt. I guess I was good at having faux relationships, maintained solely over text). I was a beta to the t. I wasn't a loser, though. I ran XC, I was on varsity wrestling, and I played lacrosse. I was a well liked kid, with a large share of friends, male and female. Most of my guy friends were just getting their first handsies, and I was oblivious as to why I was being left out of the action.

Roosh's site opened my eyes. I think I must have stayed up until 3 that night, poring over every single post he had ever written. His material just clicked with me. Intuitively, it made sense. For the next two days, I read all of his blog, re-read it, and then re-read it again. Through his blog, I stumbled across the G Manifesto and Roissy, and I soaked up their posts just as quickly.

It was lucky for me, that I learned about all of this when I did. I was leaving for a country where I knew no one. I used this time to completely reinvent myself. While in Argentina, I got my first kiss, I felt my first boob, I got my first blow job, and I lost my V card. I felt like the shit. I was the shit. I had so many firsts down there. My first girlfriend, my first time getting drunk, my first time getting high, my first real fist fight...it goes on. Argentina will always have a special place in my heart. Buenos Aires really gave me a new life, with the help of Roosh and G.

After my year abroad, we moved back up to the US. Although I was pissed at the time, we weren't going to be moving back to Alexandria. Rather, Maine was my new home. Now, I am glad that we moved to Maine instead of back to the DC area. Once again, I had a clean slate. Just like in Argentina, no one knew me. The difference this time is that I was (I really hate to use this term) an "Alpha".

Here in Maine, I'm a senior in high school, a completely different person than who I was as a freshman. I'm a popular kid. I've got a total of four notches on my belt now. I can't even remember how many make outs I've had.

But it's so much more than that. I'm confident. I'm genuinely happy with my life. Moreover, I'm a man. And I owe that all to Roosh and G. Without you guys, I don't know where I would be in life. I don't know who I would be. I shudder even thinking about it. You guys have been role models in my life, like cool older brothers. I really, really, appreciate what you do.

This whole forum has helped shape me into who I am. MikeCF, Kona, el Mech, Aliblahba, GMac, OGNorCal, Kickboxer, Samseau, Kerouac, Tuthmosis, and everyone who I'm forgetting, I want to thank you guys too. Although I don't post often, I check up on the forum a couple of times a month and you guys always dispense some good shit.

If there are any other young guys on here who feel like talking to someone closer in age to them, PM me. I'd love to help you out. One thing I'll say is don't focus on cool lines, flashy routines, or other outward expressions of "game". The real change starts within.

I wish I could of just moved overseas as a young buck. You're a very lucky kid.

This story warmed me up (pause). This might be the first kid actually raised by the forum. Unbelievable. Kudos to all the surrogate "pimp uncles" on here who helped this young man grow into the young G he is today. Bravo!

I'm 15 and I was lucky enough to stumble onto this forum and roosh as I was becoming a freshman,and changing to a school where I knew nobody. This was a life changer, the people at my old school don't even recognize me. Thanks for giving me the shove and knowledge I needed.

I also discovered Roosh when I was 15-16 ... amazing how much time has passed!

Wow so many young cubs over here. Wish I had this great community when I was in my 15's+, my life would have surely been alot different.

Keep on gaming.

Awesome post, man. Glad to hear that I've been party, in some way, in your growth. That's the great thing about this community: we all learn from one another. I've learned a lot from just bouncing ideas and thoughts with like-minded guys.

It's crazy, but I find myself increasingly turning to the forum for things less and less related to "game, per se, since game is so much about a holistic, 360-degree lifestyle.

While I know guys "on the outside" that have similar thoughts, the vast majority of the people I encounter don't have even a crumb of understanding of what we here consider routine knowledge. It's like starting from square zero.

NuMbEr7,

My advice would be just stop being a pussy about it. I was in that situation because I was waiting for the "movie moment", some perfect time where she was gazing up into my eyes as fireworks went off overhead or some bullshit like that. Fuck that. Girls want to be kissed more often than you would think, and it doesn't need to be some special moment. Just be a man and do it. Easy as that.

I've been superceeded as the youngest guy on the forum and MHaes is 18, but he's been here since was 15.

Adding onto what he said, get to a party and just go caveman on the dancefloor. Teenage girls kiss ridiculously easily even when 100% sober.

You kids have no fucking idea how lucky you are to have this shit--game on the Internet, the RVF. Even if you think you do, you don't.

If I had as few as three selected threads from this forum at age 15, I would be a smiling skeleton in a grave by now--having died from AIDS years ago, with 10,000 notches.

I have some stuff for the young dudes to share from my youth...........It's universal so start a new thread.

Highschool pulls or whatever you want to call it.

I'm really proud of you guys and the thought of being raised by us "uncles" is something that has all my attention.

Haha Awesome dude. This forum is the best. Credit goes to Uncle Roosh for starting this amazing place.

Cool to see young dudes on here (says the 24 year old lol) I wish I had found all this when I was still in highschool, college would've been WAY more fun. Game on brothers.

This story gave me the warm fuzzies inside too, mainly because it reminded me of the best year of my life (99/2000), when I was fortunate enough to spend a year living in the south of France, living with a family and studying at a lycee.

Mhaes, I think that there's two other people who you should be VERY thankful towards as well, your parents, they sound like two very cool people who had the insight and the balls to move the entire family overseas.

Spending a year abroad among a foreign culture as a teenager is one of the best things that a kid can experience, if I ever have kids, I hope they will be able to do it too.

Damn I wish a resource like this forum was around when I was a teen!

I discovered game at 33 years old in at the end of 2009. No need to say i would have had a better life if it was in my teenage years

I was about to open a thread to thank the forum. I'm about to achieve something important for me in big part because of what I've learning here. Provably Wednesday I'll post something.

Same here, looking back I could have really torn up high school if I'd had a clue.
