When I started noFap I'll admit I was skeptical of what the results would be. I began this challenge with my only real motivation being real relations with girls, whether it be social or intimate. Turns out the testosterone really built up inside me resulting in me finally losing that dreaded V card. I'm 19 so I'm sure you can realize how annoying it was thinking everyone else gets laid but me (best part was she was an 8/10 so I can't complain). I've had little desire to fap after the first ten or twelve days which leads me to believe porn didn't have that much of a grip on me in the first place and I've been lifting weights more which is great because I've lost a lot of weight in the last year and I'm considered a soft gainer so hopefully I can bulk up. The summer is coming too which I can definitely keep myself occupied and can hopefully surpass my 60 day challenge goal of no PMO, sex being the only exception. This really is the only way to help better yourself in a way that seems like a natural rite into adulthood. If I had advice for anybody who was just starting out It'd have to be absolutely no porn and to get out of the house more because you will turn into a tense motor mouth and might actually say something funny in a social situation. The only negative effect I've had from this is since I'm on a college campus, I find myself making a lot of awkward eye contact with girls but I just smile and shake it off.
Awesome post John, I totally agree with getting out of the house more often since spring has arrived.
I'm totally agree with you. Next weekend, I will be vey busy I won't have free time to think about PMO. Good luck John, your result is six days better than mine.
Hey John72228, I'm really happy for you and your progress. You are now able to interact with girls and form relationships with them, which is good, but I don't think getting laid would be my goal though. I'm 24 years old and have been addicted to PMO for the past 18 years and because of this I have a distorted view of women and I totally want to look at them with respect and love them as the human being they are. I don't really feel like getting laid will help me with that since I will only be thinking about sex and not an emotional bond. But that's me. I wish you the best on your journey.
I'm glad that you are doing good, although, 'annoying v card'? Do you really believe that it's such a bad thing to be a virgin at 19? I look at it is a good thing. Being a virgin means your feelings aren't being messed with when you wind up having sex with someone who leaves you, or sex with the wrong person, whatever. And you are completely guaranteeing you won't get an std or get anyone pregnant. Just wait until those kids who pick on people for being virgins wind up having kids too early and see what their life sends up being as a result.
Thanks for all the best wishes and I can take the criticisms but please understand and respect the fact that everyone is different in their beliefs and values. I look forward to meeting and hopefully surpassing my goal, even cutting out porn completely so I can focus on reality.
Wait... you began PMO at age 6 ! That sound bizzare to me, I can't imagine having any thoughts toward sex at that age... just shows how messed up the internet age can truly be ! I wish you all the best in your journey bud,but I have to ask, how on earth did you get mixed up in all this at such a young age?
