    Bad news:

    I relapsed after a strong 45 day streak on hard mode. My urges got the best of me the other night and a memory of a past hookup was deep inside my head. I masturbated and ejaculated to the thought of having sex with her.

    Good news:

    My erection was very strong during the entire period which I definitely wasn't use to at all. I did not use porn to masturbate. Yes I used my imagination of a past experience with a real individual which I don't find to be harmful. I also have not watched porn in the past 2 months etc. I find it much easier to break the habit of watching porn than breaking the habit of masturbating.

    Time to start over. I think I have a better idea of what I need to do to get this done. I was edging a lot which made my urges much worse. I need to quit doing that. I am also going to try going to bed much earlier to prevent boredom. Wish me the best of luck. I know I can do this.

  2. Hey bud, don't get down on yourself too much. I wouldn't have reset the counter myself man as long as you are not watching porn!

    Past hookup, imagination of having sex is what humans have been doing for thousands of years I suppose so don't worry about it.

    Everyone has a different opinion on it so I am very confused as to what really counts as a relapse. I want to stop watching porn because I know it has a terrible effect on my brain. However, I know masturbation is healthy but when you do it too much you probably get used to pleasuring yourself rather than someone else doing it for you.

    You imagined she and sex with her in your dream, I think its a better thing than watching porn. Because its your own creation on real person and my opinion it must be have some emotional thoughts. I mean if you see her as a sex object, there is a problem. But if you feel strong emotions within the sexual imagination, ı say again; its a better thing than watching porn. So try to get her attention and the let your dreams come true. Maybe many will not agree this but I see the real sex as a solution. Because you feel the reel instead virtual. For me I am still virgin, and ı started NoFap for my ''First Real Sex'' ı just waiting for the day. You know, my expectation is not so high. I know what will happen. I know it will not like a porn that ı watched for years. But it will be a REAL thing. I not say that; the real orgasm, the real sex will be solve every problem of person. But ı believe it will help it.
