    Hey,

    So I guessed I would make this post because I am really missing online roleplay (I used to do it with girls, You set like a story plot and stuff and then write out the story)

    For me this was very addictive, combined with drugs and alcohol I could stay up all night roleplaying and occasionally watching Porn.

    But I had to cut out Roleplaying as well beside PMO. I'm now on Day 9 of Hardmode. The benefits have been already great!

    I started taking ice baths + Wim Hof breathing.

    Currently I'm working on a Farm. And having those 6-7 hours of work and being busy has really helped me stay away from Porn and Roleplaying. But now it's the weekend and I had these random urges to roleplay where I suddenly get an idea for a plot.

    After lunch I'm planning to go to the Gym.

    Do anybody of you do roleplaying or have done it in the past?

    Never done much roleplay but I would simply ask what is it that leads up to the desire for this? Are u a young guy in a small town bored on the weekend? When we're bored, we want stimulation sometimes. What else can u do that's fun and pleasurable?

    Because it kind of simulates that girlfriend experience. And also you blast your brain into a fantasy world.

    I'm currently in a pretty small town yes. I already played guitar. I was thinking of playing a video game on my phone. After lunch, so around 1-2 pm I'm going to go to the gym.

    Sort of. I'm not really on the hunt for women at the moment. Kind of looking to improve myself first before I start something.

    And a thing my dad once taught me is this: context!
    Girls want social context why you approach them. For example. You play in a mixed gender volleybal team. And after a while you get to know a girl.

    Perfect place to approach her eventually.
    But cold approaches I usually don't do.

    Or the other option is via via. So getting to know a girl trough a friend.

    I'm with you. Roleplay is my addiction. Not really porn. I can disappear in it for hours and shut the world off. It's really the worst way to spend time. I'd rather say I watched tv the whole day instead of wasting it in roleplay.

    Hey,

    I've been struggling with the same issue for around a decade now as the result of some bad relationships. I totally relate to your struggle, the addictive nature and temptations and the shame that comes from wasting so much precious time!

    You can read about my issues and struggles here: https://forum.nofap.com/index.php?t...oleplay-struggles-anyone.333799/#post-3590259

    I try to write as much as I can on this subject because it seems like a very specific/niche addiction that is very different from viewing stream sites and traditional porn. That said, it involves the same struggles and I am still wrestling with this without many people to talk to. If you ever want to chat, feel free to reach out!

    Yeah, sometimes I feel like I'm letting those people down. Like how can I quit when they are expecting me to come back. But there is really nothing there. It's nothing new. I don't know what I expect to happen but it's always a mistake. I made a roleplay account the other day and just closed it today. Back to 0.

    The fact that you had the strength to make the healthy decision to close the account is a big step. People tell me the path to recovery is non-linear and has setbacks but you made a positive choice today and keep yourself busy and your life will keep moving in the right direction.

    Think about it like this: there are thousands of people to fill in your spot. I feel like Role-play is constant edging and then after a few hours I would PMO and do that 1-2 a day. Sometimes even 3x or more.

    Yeah. I guess many guys do this. That's why I'm quitting both. Roleplaying and PMO. Almost on Day 2 now.
