Poll did porn kill love your love and attraction for your partner

Yes

For me, i started being able to O with my partner, whereas before I could only O by myself while fantasising or watching porn. I also became more responsive. This is all very nice for partner of course.

For partner, he is a much, much, much nicer person without porn. He treats me with love and kindness. He enjoys my company. He respects and appreciates me. This all disappears when he is deep in PMO as he becomes a heartless shell of a person.

For me (female) the effects of MO & PMO were mainly desensitisation. For partner (male), the effects were mainly psychological/behavioural.

 

No, my girlfriend is now more worried about me relapsing and effectively cheating on her (although I am on my longest streak and feel completely revitalized, not a creep anymore!)

 

The honesty is what saved my marriage. I can't say anything on this site did it but stopping P and M and being transparent did wonders. In my case the hideing and minimizing were the main problems. I think.

 

my sex life exploded since i started

 

I have finally passed a week while with my partner. This is the longest I’ve gone so far. My partner is so proud of me and really supportive even though it was hard for her to take it in the beginning.

 

I broke up with my gf before discovering nofap...

 

Because she was asking me all the time to break up. After a few days, she wanted to be together again. I forgave her a million times. Sometime I got fed up and when I forgave her, I made clear that this was the last time. After a while, she asked me to break up again. I warned her, I tried to change her mind, but I accepted her decision. The following day, she called me and asked me to forgive her. Of course, I didn't. And she said I was right about it...

 

After 2 years, still hurts as hell...

 

I feel revitalized based on my whole personality -- this is post-Surge happiness too. I feel more motivated, that's the biggest things. Concurrently, my grades are doing better and I am interacting with more and more people every day.

 

Initially, we took a hit. After ten yrs of marriage, I crushed all of the built up trust and equity I had built. Trust started to come back eventually; things have actually been so much better since - way better than before I came clean. Sex also improved for us because it was real and not my PMO using my wife as an object of sex. Much, much improvement.

 

Meh it’s good you don’t need a flake like that in your life

 

I miss her more and more. I thought that time will make me get over her. 2 years later I feel worse. I'm planning on joining a boot camp and move on. See if it works...

 

sorry to hear that man. If she kept breaking up and pleading to come back to you, that’s a big red flag though. You don’t need that indecision. There will be another girl who values you more

 

Yup. For me it did. But the tricky part is the withdrawal symptoms I have to deal with especially my tricky feelings.
