    I'm married. I've tried to quit many many times. Only ever lasted a week. I never really had a plan before. I'm reading more and am dedicated to a reboot this time. I'm about 17 days no PMO. The day after my last PMO I had sex with my wife. I have NEVER had an ED problems. She turns me on more than porn ever has.

    Question is, can we have sex? It's been 16 days without sex (17 without porn or masturbation). The main reason it has been so long with sex is related to our schedules and some tension in our marriage related to money and work but that is improving i think due to nofap in part. My porn cravings are still strong but I'm using tools to overcome them. So basically, considering my lack of ED, can I go back to regular sex with my wife?

    I think having no sex with your wife for 90 days is a big issue for a marriage, so I think having sex is a good thing. Your here to give up porn, not loving sex with your wife.

    Yeah I kinda have the same question. Hard mode is recommend for reboot. The point of reboot is to destroy the attachment to pmo and the pathways it has created. I Want to do that. What effect does S with my wife have on the process? (no Ed for me either)

    Yes absolutely! Rewiring back to your wife will greatly improve your relationship. The only reason to abstain is if you have issues with ED or DE (which you don't) and if you have issues thinking about porn during sex to get and maintain an erection or to orgasm (which it also sounds like you don't have an issue with).

    Some men report a chaser effect of increased porn cravings after orgasm so watch out for that.

    Enjoy your wife :)

    Yes Limeaid I agree about the chaser, you need to watch out for that.
