  1. Thanks! About your story, I am sorry about what happened in your childhood.
    I am also looking for someone real who I can talk about these things; I think you should get away from those apps, because they may be triggers, also the people you meet on there, are not always the best people.
    Ask to a friend to introduce you to other guys/girls! Get rid of those apps! Congratulations for your 45 days!!
     
  2. Yeah, I was a dumb because hormones, I am still one.
    Its a little hard to forget my mistakes, I think it is easier if I share them with someone real.
    27 is not that bad!! You still have a lot of years coming! Imagine yourself being free of PMO the next 60 years of your life!!
     
  3. You let me thinking about that :\ Honestly I can't stand with the thought 'I am gay'. I am not homophobic, but gay actions doesn't correspond to my faith or my plans.
    I was thinking and maybe I am gay for the fact that I am attracted to men, but that is not bad at all; what IS bad is to act gay: have gay sex, watch gay porn, touch someone's dick...
    I think I am gay and it is the cross I need to carry: I will try to be saint by avoiding all those gays acts.
    What mekes me think i'm straight ist hat i have always thought on marrying a womand and having my own family.
    I don't know! I am confused! Please prey for me.
     
  4. Feel free to PM me! I am constantly logged in here :)

    Do not fret. I belive in christ and I don't want to disrespect your beliefs but I think that you can live a normal life being homosexual. It is important to draw a line between degeneracy and true feelings of love for a man. I feel that you should explore your true sexuality once you get over your porn and sex problems. Do not worry about that now, you will have an easy time once you sort this out. Word of advice: if you're not sure something you think or feel is right by the law of God, just ask him and he will answer, but talk to him personally do not take others words about what God thinks, the minds of men can easily be fogged, but God is in your heart and praying will answer your doubts

    It's 2018, it's acceptable for men to like men and women to like women. It's probably the safest time in history to be homosexual. What does that word mean? Homo-sexual, it just means you're sexual to the same. As long as you aren't meeting people off craigslist in a dark alley and engaging in unprotected sex, being a gay man should be a blessing, not a curse for you. I'm sure it might be difficult to "come out." A few people might revolt against you in disgust, but that's their problem. The majority of people probably won't give a shit, why? Because, they've got problems just like you. And, from reading your story, it might not surprise too many people. I'm not telling you to come out or change your life, just be easier on yourself. Don't sweat the small things, our sexually addictive compulsions (whichever side we are on) are fueled by despair, anxiety, and sadness. Being a gay man isn't a death sentence, unless you engage in risque behavior- then you really are playing with fire.

    Worrying about who you're attracted to, something so basic, innate, and natural as that is silly. Would you worry about the food you eat, or where you take a shit? That's just who you are, unless it really is the porn. Give up porn for awhile (for forever), then you'll know.

  8. I don't know what to say. This is not only about if it is safe now to be gay or not, it is about what I am.
    I need to abstain from PMO, to see if it is porn induced. Then I will find out.
    I am really confused.

  9. Excuse me but are you are psychiatrist, psychologist or general porn therapy expert in the position to tell him whether or not he can lose the same sex attraction he has to men by abstaining from porn?...
    How exactly do you know this for certain to make such and arrogant and bold ASSertion?

    What I KNOW based on my own experience of watching both gay and straight porn is that abstaining from both of them really clears my mind and reminds me I'm here specifically to be great and have relation with women specifically for reproducing.

    @1arqui

    Continue abstaining from no pmo and you'll find the true you... only you can find it ... no one else can dictate that for you man.... continue to remain p free and your mind will lose the facade porn induces on it... that been has my experience in my longer streaks of no pmo...... BEST WISHES TO YOU!

    I just want to add, from the age you started and jumped into gay porn I want to let you know it is normal to have a degree of bicurious thoughts and feelings. it’s a normal adjustment to growing up and changes with hormones and body with adolescents. I think women can be more aware of this, I know myself and every other woman I have spoken to also had the curiosity as it comes with exploring sexuality. It doesn’t even mean you’re bisexual and if so that’s not a bad either. What I am saying is your natural curiosity could have been hyper stimulated with the type of porn you were first exposed to.
     
  13. I think it is brave of you to especially at your age to reach out and reveal these skeletons, Most of us here on this forum have reached stages in our lives where we have realised that the porn train only leads to despair,self loathing and deep unfulfilment through events in our life or a gradual decline in our quality of lives. What you have highlighted in my opinion speaks volumes about the impact exposure to porn has on the adolescent mind, without any real moral guidance or compass to navigate this online world, people often tend to get very carried away. Addiction, especially those which are sex and porn related thrives in shame and secrecy. Society still has a long way to go to accept the redemption of porn addicts yet it's that which keeps the stigma and shame alive and prevents people from feeling comfortable about reaching out. The fact you have done so shows insight and a genuine recognition that something isn't right.

    This is a safe space to talk openly but out there in the analogue world you have to be very careful about who you tell. A priest is probably a safe bet as they have a degree of professionalism to adhere to, the same goes with a psychiatrist although that can often be a hit and miss thing as it depends on the individual and not everyone gets the right fit for them.

    What i can tell you from experience is that abstinence from porn in any form is possible and it will lead you away from the rabbit hole, it's difficult at first but with time and patience you can get to a point in life where you no longer want it,need it or care about it
     
  14. That is a great idea!
     
  15. I did neither stated nor implied that I am a "psychiatrist, psychologist or general porn therapy expert". That is an assumption on your part. Your only foundation for this is that you consider your opinion and experience on this matter superior to mine. If that is true, it is not a reason for me to say nothing to the guy we are supporting in this thread.

    Please read again what I actually said:
    I start by not expressing an opinion, but by seeking clarity over a comment he made which I was confused about. I went on to say, "it seems", not assuming anything. Next I reiterated a statement of fact he made in his original post. Based on the storehouse of information based on personal experience from https://yourbrainonporn.com/ I stated what the pattern of this type of dilemma looks like. I use the word "usually" to acknowledge that this may not be everyone's experience.

    Quite honestly, I really do not understand why you are busting my balls over this. Just leave me and my comments alone.

  16. In your haste to clean up the asinine comment you wrote you did in FACT expressed your opinion after not throughly reading the OP's written text. Maybe next time you should in your own words seek "clarity" before telling someone what their true sexual preference maybe with forgone illogical replies.....

    and AGAIN I shared my honest experience (since when does experience become and opinion?) THATS LUDICROUS ... unless you did a test over time to see some one go without gay porn like I did with myself and see the effects... I don't see how you can come up with the hogwash you replied with... maybe you need clarity in understanding that as well

    And your not above being questioned about what you write, no one is here on this site including me.... thats why there are quote/reply buttons.. Have a Good Night:emoji_wave::emoji_sleeping:
     
  17. You are just being obnoxious @Velvet_Rope97. Leave me the fuck alone! :mad:
     
  18. nope your upset I responded to your comments and called your hogwash for what it was....
    why the bad language here?
    this is suppose to be a friendly community....
    meditate my friend....
     
  19. You have not been friendly to me! I have asked you again and again to leave me alone but you keep pushing me. Don't fucking patronise me by calling me 'your friend'. :mad: You are not my friend. Why the bad fucking language? I am upset at being attacked, so just leave me alone!
     
  20. If you say so... and I meant "friend" sarcastically:emoji_unamused:.. but I see you didn't see the sarcasm there... PLACE ME ON IGNORE THEN @IGY no need to lose sleep since you are obviously bothered over this discussion, one you took WAYYY out of hand and over broad.... loosen up it's not that serious man ... were online discussing a topic we are not at war.... good nite....
