Also, thank you to everyone who commented on this post.

It helped me stay solid cause I was FREAKING the fuck out due to paranoia and guilt. I thought my body was gonna die.😅

It also helped me commit to take some of the first steps to learning cold approach (I met a ton of random people and some cool girls).

Maybe having more abundance would've helped me realize faster that I didn't actually have feelings for my teacher?

So I'm going to stick with the seduction goals I wrote down and we'll see where that takes me😤

I drew her awhile ago and it maybe captures the truth of what this situation was.

An illusion of lust
Yes, you still have strong oneitis.
We've all been there. don't worry.

Don't try to rationalize it, it's just your brain's chemicals messing with your head.
Sarge other women and in time it will pass.

Get another hobby...or join another dance class, since you like to dance
Change the air, build a new social circle and re-start with a clean slate...it will be good for you
Ah man. I appreciate the advice and yeah I may join a dance club here.

I don't know if I will rebuild a new social circle😫. My friends are so cool and awesome and ambitious!

My one friend that I took the dance class with though... I wish I hadn't told him about my feelings towards the teacher. Cause I see what you mean. The emotions return sometimes around him. Lesson learned.
(for now, I keep telling him about moments with other girls-- I approached and had a silky smooth and great interaction with a girl today-- and we also might start working on a cool goal together).

I'll keep your advice in mind and see what happens. There's nothing I cannot let go of.

AFC oneitis cure: Rubberband Distraction Technique for Intrusive Thoughts
Except instead of “anxious and negative” thoughts, it’s any thoughts of “her”.
What worked for me was 2.5 weeks of this.
Instead of using a rubberband, I would clench my fist in such a way that one of my nails dug into a fleshy part of my hand, and ensure I felt some pain until I was thinking about something else.
“Something else” didn’t have to be bright and shiny positive thoughts necessarily, it could be anything but a thought about her.

I didn’t invent this, found it on a women’s dating advice website (as a technique for forgetting a guy).

Oh CRAP!

I finally burst out of it fellas. I see the situation with clear eyes now.

I could describe what I see as the reality of the dance teacher but that doesn't matter. The point of value here is in HOW I healed some shitty feelings towards seduction, and when I healed those it was like "OH! This situation is stupid".

So check it out guys.

There are two "mentalities" in this situation. You can only be in ONE at a time.

💔1. Oneitis AKA being in love and all the feelings towards that girl. The more I focus on explaining "why" of the situation, the more it expands and it just becomes stupid as fuck.

💎2. Seduction! This is basically the path of believing in my own awesomeness and staying in touch with the reality of dating and what women want and fucking pussy and such. This could also be called taking the path to get what I want!

Now. Here's the question.

WHY was I trapped in the first mentality? When the teacher rejected me, I literally wrote in down in a journal "I REFUSE to talk to other girls".

Well, I'm still digging through stuff but when I asked myself "what do I feel towards seduction and dating?" I uncovered some deep shit!

I realized:
1. I didn't believe in myself. Despite the successes I've had with women, I at some point stopped believing the effect I had on women was real

2. I had very deep apathy towards seduction. I was in this state of kinda hopelessness

And there are probably more feelings there (I'ma dig through them and re-energize everything) but the point is, I just did not feel good towards seduction.

I stopped believing in myself because I got my heartbroken years ago in a shitty way and I didn't process it well.

But the interesting one is the apathy.

See, when I first started reading Girlschase and got into seduction, I was SUPER excited and into it.

But here's the problem.

At the time, I was a teenager with no car, no house (not even a room lmao, I slept in the living room), and not even a phone!

I was not in a situation to learn the full process of pickup (approach to lay). AND my school was tiny as shit, so I couldn't really approach that much. All I could do was grind my fundamentals and conversation and flirting and general social abilities.

So I did! I got super good at what I could and a ton of girls at my school were horny for me. BUT. I stopped right at the point where I would get "close" to girls and ask them out, because I didn't have a phone and didn't want to be embarrassed.

What did this cause?

Well firstly, girls would eventually move on because I wouldn't smash them. So I started to get bitter towards the fact that I had to have sex with a girl in order to get her (of course I'd feel bitter in that situation). Side note this affected my relationship with sex later on.

And then I just started feeling really hopeless, too.

My mom at the time barely let me leave the house 😂. There was no reason to keep giving energy towards seduction so my body kinda just shut down in that area of life (which, energetically, was the smart thing to do)

Eventually I got a job and a phone but by then, I was already in love with the girl who would break my heart. Whoops...

What is the point of all of this?

It is that I had "learned helplessness".

I had so much apathy because of my situation... and... I carried that apathy into college.

So even though NOW I had freedom and girls were everywhere and I could finally approach and put my cock into these girls, my BODY was still in that old mentality of "what's the point?"

...

So what's the solution?

Let all that old apathy go! There are endless possibilities now!

I have some really awesome friends and women in my life. I'm evolving at a rate like never before, learning SO much stuff-- my habits are starting to lock in, I'm about to get a computer science degree from the #5 ranked computer science school in the world, I know all this letting go stuff (great emotional intelligence), I had some great initial successes cold approaching and there are infinite possibilities!

It's time to dig through all those old feelings towards seduction that aren't serving me anymore... and re-kindle the confidence and belief and especially enjoyment I once had towards women, romance and seduction!

Aww FUCK yeah!

"various authoritative departments" lol...

Chick calls mall security, the TSA, and the franchise HQ for three local McDonald's: "I'd like to report a former dance student of mine who has repeatedly solicited dates over electronic mail..."
Yeah, what a bitch, I mean, the email was fucking random but who does she think she is? I guess she's just trying to scare him, maybe because other students caused trouble for her before, you never know

The class was 80% guys lmao and I'm certain quite a few of em also had feelings for her. Wouldn't be surprised if another feller had already made a move 😂

Dance classes are usually mostly girls. She told me this in person, that it was a unique class. I think it was a case of her never having been in that situation and going way overboard with being sexy and charming and feminine (and doing weirdly provocative things, randomly. She's a dumbass lmao)

Also, my friend and I both agreed she gave off psycho victim mentality chick vibes. Prolly what triggered me to drop the class-- I can sende that shit in my gut. She's weird as fuck.

Very spooky but that's done.
