    All,

    There were several posts from various users that were not respectful towards each other. It is always okay to disagree respectfully with concepts, but please do not attack a person. Also, the rules require users to respect the reboots of others.

    Offending posts (and those that replied to offending posts) may have been removed.)

  2. In my opinion I think that's a very bad idea. The whole point about NoFap is to FIGHT the urges and recondition yourself. To rewire your brain to the right stimulus. The whole reason you have this energy is so that you can make use of it to become a stronger person. Get healthier, exercise, and find hobbies. All these things that would naturally build your attractiveness.

    You see have I not had any energy during my journey, I wouldn't have gotten things done. I wouldn't have made the progress with my physique that I have, and much more. Don't take the easy way out friend. The thought of wanting to lose your sex drive in order to make this easy shows that your brain needs more work. To put it simply, whenever you give in to urges you're strengthening the primal side of your brain. You want to strengthen the part of your brain that has logic and reasoning. You can do this in many ways. Meditation, Cold Showers, and actively doing things out of your comfort zone. Have a thought about doing chores and thinking whether you should do it later? NO. Do it right now.

    If you live the way I mentioned above, you'll be on a really good path in no time, friend. Trust me you'll want a sex drive. That's what motivates me.

    No man you're misunderstanding. I want to abstain from sex because I don't want to be like everybody else, and because I don't find sex to be important.
    Yes I workout out, and yes I have hobbies.
    I hate having sexual urges, and I just wanted to get rid of them.
     
  4. I used to always have a huge sex drive. from 7 months due to heartbreak and bad breakup (I am a girl btw) I don't have it anymore. I truly don't have any attraction for guys anymore. but this has been caused by a trauma. so i don't wanna have neither kisses nor intimacy with someone else

    Also, talking from my more than 5 months PMO free, i can see i don't think about sex as before. I see as people and i don't imagine having sex with them. Without p i have been able to set sex drive to a normal level that i don't get turned on and fantasize too easily. also abstinence from sex has been necessary for me. is m your only addiction or also p? avoid triggers and improve your life

    Remove the reasons (boredom, loneliness, depression etc.) why you became an addict. I avoided some triggers (sexy music, some movies and tv series for at at least 2 months just to be safe). make yourself happy and focus on your goals and you get rid of your addiction:emoji_blush: also use R Tribe, it is a free app where i put my thoughts everyday before going to sleep and it motivates me

    the thing is that girls do not really care so much about sex in general more about tenderness and connection, basically small sweet things. i think that if you truly like a girl and start a relationship that is healthy and is not based on sex and you got actual stuff in common that can be good for you. but you don't need anyone else to be happy. love yourself first

    otherwise it could also be the case when you need to be single for a while, and clear yourself from all these thoughts (at least a month). what do you feel you need to do?

    Just to be clear, my feelings about sex were indeed not caused by trauma. Mainly, my addiction is more of M and less of P. What I feel like doing is just dating the right girl who respects the way that I feel, and I would respect the way she feels about certain things.
     
  6. May I ask: does the sight of a vulva gross you out? It seems like an explanation for your unusual view and proposition. :confused:

    You cannot kill your sex drive, unless you are killing yourself.

    But you can use your sex drive. You can use it to lead your life into a meaningful direction.

    Totally agree With SnowWhite. You cannot kill your sex-drive. That is human and normal. So don't think that you are abnormal just because you have a sex-drive.

    From my understanding and talking to people who have taken vows of celibacy, they still deal with sex drive desires, they just have to choose on a daily basis not to act on the drive.

    I know because in my current situation, I am trying to permanently abstain from PM, and because of my marital situation, sex is indefinitely not possible. That could change in the future, but it’s not a guarantee.

    I just hate the unimportant, unnecessary "urges."

    Sex drive is important. Without it none of us would have existed.

    Socially, they can be unecessary, but biologically, the human species needs those signals to pass on the DNA and all.

    If cups, needleless syringes, and ovulation prediction machines didn't exist, I'd probably adopt. But sex to me is a "want" not a "need."

    Look, there's enough people in this world. Unless the human race was at the brink of extinction, sex is a "want" not a "need."

    What do you mean by "meaningful direction."
     
  16. Hang on, there is nothing wrong with having sex and having sex drive. All is good with getting the right measure of it. but if you don't want to do sex at all, Start not watching p and no m. get busy when you feel urges or being around people. work out, walk, go out with friends. girls are less centered with sex than guys so you are good. how old are you? are you virgin? did you tell this to your guyfriends?

    This could be your addiction and not real sex drive. The extreme horniness that lasts for several months of rebooting can be mistaken as sex drive. Sex drive isn't as strong and powerful as the withdrawals that comes during rebooting.

    I am a virgin (and I plan to be that way, forever), I'm 15, and I would never tell my guy friends because it would be none of their business, even if I was a grown man.
     
  19. Oh my gosh @Arkangel Colon you sound just like me. I've created threats just like these. It's like I'm reading my thoughts in what you post. Wow.
