In a relationship and wanting to do hard reboot

Discussion in 'Rebooting in a Relationship' started by Deleted Account, Jun 8, 2019.

  1. I just started my path to recovery this week. I have abstained from porn for months, while continuing to masturbate and orgasm on a daily (often multiple times a day) basis. I am in a relationship, and just in this first week I notice a dramatic increase in my sexual ability. However, the day after we had sex, I felt depressed and low-energy. I really want to do a full/hard reboot (no orgasm at all), but I do not know how to proceed with that, given I am in a relationship. My partner is a very sexual person and I don't think he would be ok with this. Has anyone had this situation? How did you deal with it?

    There is no answer to this except to talk about it. Physically, the options are either they are ok with the wait or you only work on giving O's and not getting any, and even then not all partners will be OK with that. Good luck with the discussion.

  3. Thank you so much for the helpful advice. It will be a difficult process, as my partner is extremely turned on by my orgasms, so it would be a big disappointment for him if I were to stop. It is time to have the discussion though. Best of luck reaching your goals!

    It might be helpful to think of and present this as a health issue/crisis. What if you had to have surgery or needed to restrict for some other reason? A loving SO would happily give up certain activities for a while in order to help a partner heal.
