How to tell my wife I relapsed...

I understand how you feel. You did do your best at the one month. That is great progress but yes, you fell for it and that is not a good thing but, relapsed happen. I’m not saying get used to them or encouraging them at all But, It may happen. To feel bad about it is good and bad, one you should study why what made you fall. So you can be more equity for the next time an urge comes. Realize this pain is not worth it, and try again to go further. Study other Fapstronauts online. Or educate and do your goals, positive things to take you in new directions. New habits. To break the old.

Now, as for your girlfriend you can tell or if you feel you must or keep it in. And own up to your own behavior. If you feel it’s best and honest, for her to know then tell her.

Being a PMO addict (porn addict) took many years to get hooked on and it may take time to get off the Habit. It will actually but, some don’t relapse some do. It is Not the end of the world but it Is important to Do what you set out to do. To rid your self of the waste of time and self-deprecating effect of PMO. If yo explain to her that this is a Difficult path to go into NOFap and you are trying to do you best. She may understand, she may respect that you told her. And also encourage you to go at another streak and keep trying. She may notice the positive charges already and appreciate you being honest.

Now you may also just feel guilty and want to tell her in order to free your self from some responsibility and lesson the secret life, shame. I have felt this too.it may cause problems with her, disappointment or arguments. Disgust? Or she may say it’s ok and take it well. Careful this may lead you to relapse again later, since “it wasn’t so bad”.

But either way. This is Your Journey you battle to become who you really want to be. To be You, the good you, clean nondependent on PMO and BS and purify your self to be more, do more in life. And as we know PMO is shit and ruined allot of us. It’s never worth a relapse and be careful the more you do, the easier it is to give up, get back on NoFap, repeat.

Maybe keep this personal or keep it public, (with her) and she may help or it may enable you to fall again.

Look overall the point is to stop falling. Take responsibility. Change your self. This takes time. Keep at it. Don’t Hate your self. You’ll get use to how shitty it feels and eventually stop PMO and day say "Enough is Enough"..and really mean it. If those around you don’t understand it. Don’t support you. That’s still dormant matter. You have to do this for You! All the best. Now be proud of how far you’ve come. Get back on track with a clean Streak and grow! If you’re going through hell, keep going! New days, new ways! Master your mind! Bless
