Hi all. First of all it literally took me 15 mins to understand how to post a new thread. Back to the point. Since it's just been two days since I made a NoFap account, I'm having a hard time understanding some words that are very commonly used in the forums here. If someone would be kind enough to tell me what exactly these terms mean. Some examples ( hard mode, rebooting) I can't remember any more right now, but please mention them anyway along with their meanings. Thanks a lot.
The main ones I had to figure out: PMO - Porn, Masturbation, Orgasm. Generally the combination of those three things is what most people are avoiding. You might see people refer to MO, which simply means masturbating to orgasm without porn. PIV - Penis in vagina sex. Hard Mode - absolutely no orgasms. Also I think referred to as "Monk Mode." Rebooting - consecutive days/time without using porn to masturbate and orgasm (PMO).
