I was super skinny as a kid and girls didn't like me, so I started working out in like 8th grade. But I just had a VERY small amount of weights and a bench at home. Helped me be slightly stronger but not by much.
In my late Teens I wanted to be more attractive and so I started going to an actual gym and working many machines I wouldn't have been able to replicate at home.
I always was the same amount of handsome, my personality has always been the same, and I've always been funny to everyone.
But as soon as I got more muscular my success with women went up substantially. Way more women were attracted to me and I finally was able to form romantic and sexual relationships far more than ever before.
Mission accomplished.
