    Long story short - i got a girlfriend.

    It's actually pretty scary how many jewels men would be willing to relegate to the "friend zone" because they're so married to porn and masturbation and that heavily edited woman on the screen who apparently understands you more than the real ones in our lives. Life is great, she's killed my urges completely and I know they'll surface on some obscure late night/ early morning but there's something about having someone and being in love [in my case] that negates the power of the urges.

    My day counter does't reflect the title because early in the whole getting together thing before dating i did relapse but those 20+ days weren't even when I was with her so since we were official I haven't done it. I say all that to say this, it isn't anything like a cure but like anti-retrovirals to HIV, it's the best solution we've (I've) got for now. So men (and women) keep up the fight and GO OUT! Either you bump into someone great while out you realise they've been right there the whole time.

    Yes this may have a manipulative undertone but if you're on NoFap, "drastic times call for drastic measures" and I see it more as her being my therapy and the thing unto which I'm singly focused on so no urge or craving for porn and choking the chicken can arise. Falling in love is a beautiful thing and the best solution I've yet to find.

    1a. GO OUT.
    1b. Open your eyes.
    2. Talk to someone really interesting or different because you never know.
    3. I'm not Mr. confident and i got into a relationship. Get pumped up, listen to some Kanye West (what i do) and if you get rejected the feeling of trying far supersedes any embarrassment or whatever.
    4. Live your best life.
    5. I love you all. Peace
