A Certain Kind of Woman/Man?

Discussion in 'Dating during a Reboot' started by Deleted Account, May 12, 2018.

  1. Does a dates political views, theological/religious views, music they listen to, movies/TV shows they like, books they read indicate if they will accept someone with a PMO problem?

    I think a dates political views and interests can give an indication of whether they will accept you. If they're conservative it's likely they'll reject you and someone who's more liberal is more likely to accept you. If someone believes in an angry God who punishes people they will probably want nothing to do with a PMOA. Someone who listens to music made by artists who've battled addictions are going to be more sympathetic to a PMOA. Someone who watches shows that depict characters with addiction are more likely to be compassionate towards your addiction. If they read non-fiction books about addiction or redemptive stories they are more likely to accept you, but if they read books about get vengeance they are more likely to reject you.

    A persons beliefs and interests can tell you what kind of person they are.

    You may be on to something. But even if your theory is correct that there is an increased likelihood for acceptance/rejection based on the factors you mention, I would imagine results would vary widely depending on many other factors, including other redemptive attributes of the PMOA, background and experience of the date, etc. It does sounds like a broad generalization but I wouldn’t be surprised if your theory is right at least 50% of the time.

    I dont know how you do it, but I always sell "me being on Nofap" as my advantage not the defect.

    I was thinking about that for a long time. I do think that having same core beliefs is important to build stable relationships, but as far as affection goes, I think physical and emotional properties of your date are way more important.

    When it comes to love, biology is more important, but when it comes to long-term relationships (and friendship) ideology plays a more important role.

    Exactly most guys have a pmo addiction and don't realize it or are in denial. We're actually trying to better ourselves I think a date would find that a lot more attractive than someone who goes on porn sites regularly.

    They could give you an indication for the moment but I believe that people’s views change all the time and there something much deeper than things we use to label who we are
