I'm over 300 days of Nofap still going strong but I've been having more attraction and success in general in the last two weeks and idk why. Just yesterday I went to the gym, in the city. I usually go to the one by my house but for some reason I decided to stop to the one downtown. While I was getting warmed up to bench press, this group of girls was looking at me. I mean they were burning a hole in the side of my face type of stare lol It was 5 or 6 of them probably around 22-25 years old. It threw me off so much that I was about to look behind me to see if it was someone else they were eyeballing. I looked straight at them and gave a smile. Next thing I know, after my set of bench, all 6 of them were right next to me trying to talk to me. They ended up inviting me to a birthday party next week, all of this happened within the span of 2 minutes lol crazy. One other thing is that people have been complimenting me left and right. My sister told me my hair and skin looked like it was glowing and she asked me what had I been doing. I dont do anything except regular hygene and I literally see her almost every day so it was strange for her to say this out of nowhere. I wanted to say I'm holding in my energy but she wouldn't understand. Last month me and some old friends went to the bars and chilled. I havent seen them since January. The first thing one of the girls said is "Wow, theres something different about you, you really have this aura , I can tell you've been taking care of yourself" Mind you, this is an old friend from high school who I've grown up with. The whole time we were out she was sitting so close to me , kept finding excuses to touch me and asked to have some of my drink . She has never acted like this with me before. Another friend called me charismatic. Now I've never had problems talking to people and being likable but I've never been called charismatic before. Guys Nofap is great. Ive said it in my previous posts that I dont think we have success just because of nofap but it does indirectly help us. Nofap combined with socializing, working towards your goals and getting out of your comfort zone have turned my life around. I cant stress this enough, time is so short, the first time I ever fapped 8 years ago to now has went by in the blink of an eye. Do not waste your time doing something that brings no value to your life. 5 years from now you will not regret living a porn free lifestyle. But 5 years from now if you don't change you will regret fapping away your prime years. Time is the only thing in life we have absolutely no way of getting back. Think about it brothers. I'll link a video I saw afew days ago that helped me out. Please watch it, there are many things he said that resonated with me. If you have any questions or need some motivation feel free to message me or look at my previous posts, some of them go all the way back to 2016. I love all of you ! Good luck!
I'm so happy for you! I really love your posts! They are very encouraging! Keep us updated and stay strong brother.
I wish I could say that too bro but I've had more girls come up to me and talk to me in the last 300 plus days of nofap lifestyle than I've had in the previous 3 years before that and I am going out alot less now than I was back then. I do believe holding my energy in allows me to better hold that masculine frame alot of guys talk about. As well as your male pheremones increase , voice tonality deepens , body language becomes more dominant all that change as a result of abstaining.
Did u get any post acute withdrawal symptoms (anxiety,depression etc)... I m on 8 months nofap( sex 2 times).... My mood keeps changing but it's frequency is getting less.... how long will it take???
Dude i just love your progress and impressed by how strong you are by only having sex 2 times in 300 day period - i am almost 90 days. Did not masturbate or porn or orgasm the whole time and now this incredibly hot girl starts talking to me and to be honest she admitted i look so hot and wants to hook up with me. I desire her greatly but i am not sure whether i wanna waste my energy or seed with her cuz of simple raw hookup. I feel great and confident but seeing your post, i am starting to believe that maybe i should not do a wasteful hookup with her because i wanna build up my lost life with my newfound energy. Did you lose anykind of power or felt lower after you had sex? Gongratulations on your journey brother!
Congrats man closing in on 90 days is huge! I did feel a little tired after I released during sex but I was good after afew hours. If you are worried about wasting your energy, you can hook up with her without releasing like I did the second time I had sex. Being intimate with a woman was one thing that helped me quit porn because it helped destroy those mental pathways that were hooked on a woman on a computer screen and instead helped me rebuild those ones of attraction to real woman. It doesn't have to be sex it could be just kissing, touching, cuddling etc. but I do suggest atleast some level of contact with a woman. Only tricky part is that it can lead you to wanting to fantasize when u are not with her, that is detrimental to your recovery. So be mindful about that too.
In the first month and a half I was having mood swings. I was really angry then really sad at random times. I'd say its on a person to person basis to when your moods will level out. If you are still having it that far in your recovery make sure you are not edging in any kind of way OR fantasizing for long amounts of time. That still floods ur mind and can be worse than PMO in some cases.
My sister asked me a few weeks back if I had been to a tanning salon, because it looked like I had gotten a tan. She said something about my face looking warmer. I live with her and see her every day, and this is the first time I've heard anything like that - or at least noticed a compliment like that. It sounds like the face glow you're describing, perhaps to a lesser extent. I was only 5-6 weeks in when she said it after all
Your post are always enchantenchanting....... Glad to read your story...... I will also join that club.... Wait for me.
Do it bro. If you get a wet dream you are going to feel bad. Do it with that girl, a relationship..even a fleeting one..isnt it better than the idea of power? You start a possibiity. Wear condom. Let us know what happens to you afterwards
Absolutely true, my husbands face got more masculine and his voice much deeper. Other physical improvements as well.
