Ladies in reboot, I would like to understand in order to try and help a friend: during your addiction, what was your perception towards men? was it like, avoid contact and rather be safe in your addiction? did this perception change thanks to NoFap?
During my addiction, my standards towards men were lower, I would look at any man and imagine a sexual relationship out of desire. At the same time, I was shy around them and I did avoid contact and I avoided even having friendships with them. Thanks to NoFap, I look at men like human beings, I'm able to talk to them casually and make friendships, I no longer see them as pieces of meat
Wow, I felt the exact same way about women before I started NoFap. And after I started, I was able to make friends with them and look them in the eye.
I feel like it really makes you look at people in a disgusting way, when you stop you become a bit humane you know?
When I watched porn, I used to objectify people based on how they look. I was only interested in men who were obviously good-looking. Despite this, I had no confidence around men. Now, I'm much more confident and am interested more in men's personalities and them as individuals. I do believe that this process has been aided by ultimately abstaining from masturbation as well.
