    I was doing well but when I use dating apps and see so many women, sometimes with bathing suits, showing their body in provocative dresses, erotic descriptions, etc, it sometimes triggers a relapse. Any pieces of advice on this? Sorry but saying "uninstall dating apps" won't work for me. Right now (and I'm trying to change this) this is one of the only ways to meet new girls where I live.
    (I just thought of one right now. Swipping when I'm not alone at home. Like at coffee shops, breaks at work, etc). Any other advice? Thanks!

    Can you get ones where you read the description only for a while and at the end if you match it shows you the photos?

    Only look at enough of the picture to determine compatibility. For instance, weight, ethnicity, face, or whatever. Don't check them out; only check for compatibility. Get the heck off the app the second you start to feel triggered. It'll still be there after you take 5 to calm down again.

    Hmm.. I've never heard about an app like this. And I think it wouldn't work for me either. I'm very visual and if I'm not attracted to a gal (or there's no photo of her) I don't even chat with her on the app.

    Thanks! I'll try that! It's a good idea!
