    I have been in a relationship for almost two years will my male SO. He has always struggled with ED, Depression, p addiction and M addiction. I have stuck with him and given nothing but support. His depression has improved a bit with getting of his medication and switching to Veganism. At the start we were very s active, but things happen emotionally so it slows down. For the last year almost we have barely any sexual contact.

    I have been doing nofap for 3 months, and brought up the concept prior to even starting my own journey, and 3 times since I've started. He doesn't want to acknowledge the potential power and responsibility he has for fixing this problem. He is distant. I can tell he cares and loves me, and in every other way he is great. It just seems he has no sexual drive, and I'm sure this is why. He watches p multiple times a week, and he is so fixated on doing similar things he sees. It is off putting. I want to support him, but I am nearing my exhaustion point. My problem does not lie in Sex itself, but the fact he refuses to better himself or even try, and he won't take responsibility. I crave intimacy and and play. He does not even think about it, it seems. I have to ask him to do things.

    I will bring it up again today and see what the outcome is. I would love any tips on this, thank you!

    Hi there,

    I see that you would like your boyfriend to stop watching porn. We all know that we cannot force someone not to do something. So, the best way is to help him educate the ill effects on fapping so that he can stop watching porn.

    The video given below can be the start, tell him to watch this video. Share nofap related links with him that you think might be useful.



    Ping me if you need any more suggestions, I will try my best to answer them all.

    I have given him many links, many based on science and peer reviewed research, others about personal experiences. I've also shared my experience. I know I could never force anyone to do anything, that's not what I want. That would benefit no one. He needs to want this. I just don't know what else to do to help him see the truth. Thank you!
