I had discovered NoFap a few months back, thought it was nice, and just went on with life and trying to do it on my own. That went less than perfectly. Now I will give this a try. I'm 23. I'm a virgin and would like to stay that way until I am married. I am a religious person, and so most of my motivation comes from that realm. I have a girlfriend that I have been dating for a little over a year now, but we are in a long distance relationship, two separate countries. I also want to have the self control to know that I am honoring and respecting her properly. I kinda feel like if I don't have the self control of myself now with something as simple as porn and masturbation, that could cause future problems if things work out for us. As I said, I am a religious person, so I think of it as being a bit of a moral issue for myself. I know that is not the standard constitutional view of NoFap, but I am cool with that, and I also know that I can respect the opinions/thoughts of others. My goal is to break the habit. No fapping, no porn, no edging. For now, I'm setting my goal for a month of freedom and will evaluate my journey once there. Moving on to the journal section. Talk to you all later!
Hey there Welcome to the community, it's a fine place and you'll find a lot of support on your way to achieving your goals. It's great to have a clear idea of your motivation for doing this, religion and morality are a good place to start, but also consider some of the other, positive effects NoFap will have on your life. Things like your mood, confidence and energy levels Good luck and get yourself a counter in your sig, it really helps
