Why should kids my age date, especially during their reboot?

    I just see no point of kids dating around my age. I see it as unimportant right now. School and other prorities should be more important than dating at such a young age. It’s so stupid, to me, and I’m 15 years old

    Plus, I personally feel like it’d be hard to continue a conversation with someone due to porn-induced confidence issues.
     
  2. Lol facts, most kids just date to look cool and show off to their friends. Like what's the appeal in that? If I was going to date someone, which I may try out soon, imma make it a legitimate relationship. Not just bull. I'm 14 btw

    Finally, a teen like me that gets my point of view :D
     
  4. Yo at least someone my age knows the truth. Most kids our age think PMO is a joke and normal. It's really not

    True.

    PMO is a disease that should be killed

  6. Perhaps but it's not going to. Big money is made in porn. Too bad. NoFap will begin to gain mass traction in the 2020s imo.

    Ahhh youth :) You have a good mentality. I think it's great that you continue to work on yourself for now while in reboot and not date. I do want to say, there is some merits in dating as a teen - you get to understand what sort of personalities you like being with and what genuinely attracts you as a person. Saying that though, it's no good dating if the spectre of porn and PMO is clinging onto you (it would ruin any potentially good relationship you get into). So take your time but focus on dealing with PMO.

    You guys have the right mindset because society has brainwashed you to think otherwise

    I personally think that should be for adulthood

    Even when I do reboot before I hit 18, I won’t date until I’m in my 20s

    Yes.
    I feel like there’s so much more important stuff to focus on, when you’re a child.

    Like reading and educating yourself, school, and a lot of other priorities you may have

    Why should I?

    Relationships during middle school/high school aren’t gonna last forever, unless you’re lucky.

    Also, I think it’d be better to keep my feelings to myself if I get a crush on a girl.

    I also think it’d be better just to be friends with girls right now, not their lovers

    Did you read that post of mines, that I quoted above this comment?

    Human interactions are necessary, but I would only care about making friends with people.

    I never said no one should be In relationships. I only said that people shouldn’t focus on relationships at a super young age (9-19).

    I think I don’t have to learn young about how relationships work. I’m sure I might figure it out later.

    Personally, if I had a crush on a girl, I would just keep it to myself. I would only make friends with girls right now

    Please explain to me why I should start dating now, besides the fact that it’ll “give me experience.”

    Also explain to me why I should even consider it to have “interactions,” when I can easily do that with friends right now

    I agree. The vast majority of teens are too immature to form a lasting relationship with someone. Everything has been handed to them and they haven't learned how to provide for themselves or others yet. I'm 18 and I don't think I'm quite ready for a gf. Although nofap has allowed me to mature, I still have plenty of work left before I can accept that responsibility. I still have to recover from years of excessive internet, video game, and porn use. I had no drive or motivation because I lived my life in front of a computer screen. Because of nofap, I can now prepare myself for the future.

    It's uncommon for anybody to form lasting relationships during high school. My grandparents got married young and stayed married for over 60 years before my grandfather died 2 years ago, but relationships like that are rare. My friend's parents got married right after high school. He was born a year later and his parents divorced when he was only 2. You could argue that forming relationships at a young age can teach you lessons for later on, but that's only if you choose to learn from them. Most young people will blame the other person for the failed relationship instead of learning from their own mistakes.

    Because we're all on nofap, we're ahead of the game when it comes to maturity. PMO is an immature activity because it gives you instant gratification instead of long-term fulfillment. Those our age want instant gratification often at the expense of opportunity. If we do the mature thing and develop ourselves then we will be ready for relationships.

    So I should start young with everything.

    Wouldn’t it be better to keep your feelings to yourself, when you have a crush on someone, than to act on it?
