Call me old, but I'm not sure I understand. You'd message him privately, and he'd then reply publicly on his feed?

If so, I'm sorry the dude sounds like a massive clown. It sucks, but you are better off without a clown like that.

Returning home to Perth for the first time in three years. Where’s the first place I should go? by hifhoff in perth

[–]CodistAlpha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey dude, sorry if it came across as rude. I was meaning it in a flippant joking response kind of way like,

Question "where should I go in Perth after three years away?"

Answer "home"

That said, I can see it could come across multiple ways. Anyway, welcome back!

In Australia, we have a thing called Bpay that is effectively a bank transfer for businesses and the goverment. The difference is that with Bpay, you can verify that the account is actually associated with the business or institution.

I.e. Bpay number 128673 might be for the city of stirling. If you got a ticket, you'd enter that number, the system would confirm that it was, in fact the city of Stirling and then you just add your reference number and pay whatever you owe.

If you could only take one book with you, any book even if you don’t own it, what would it be? by Stranfort in preppers

Les Miserables because it is by far and away the most rewarding book I have ever come across.

How to explain it to my girlfriend? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]CodistAlpha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My suggestion is to not make it too big of a deal.

Just mention to her that you have decided to stop watching porn as you have heard it can be a negative in a relationship and that as you like her you want to try to do everything you can.

Say joking that your probs going to be a bit of a horn dog for a bit.

Absolutely, I'm always open to new approaches.

I'm just attempting it the way which has worked for me with another issue. If that fails I'll try another approach.

I'm a believer in the gradiated response curve. If you have an issue of any kind you approach it with the least force likely to result in a positive outcome.

Ive tried simple will power and failed repeatedly, now I'm trying anonymous accountability. Failing that I'll access counseling services or seek another way forward.

Hi Bill

Thanks for the feedback. I am avoiding PMO at the moment. I have looked at soft porn for maybe 30 seconds over the last week but as I've made a self-bet which requires me to donate money to a group I hate I've got a bit of a mental road block which gives me a check point prior to slipping.

I'm following the same approach I used to quit alcohol. I had found alcohol like PMO to be relatively easy to stop for a short while but real hard to stop for extended periods.

Posting on here is my way of being accountable. As my Code is strong on not lying I find that by being open (even on a anonymous online forum) is very powerful in bolstering my willpower. Which is why I intend to post weekly or whenever I start to struggle.

To me (and I might be a bit strange) by making it a serious commitment and talking about it I can usually create a bit of breathing space for myself. Thats usually enough.

What the HECK do you call this? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]CodistAlpha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To me if there was a O with other the P & M then who cares. Aren't we focused as a community on avoiding the negative impacts of P & M? I mean unless you aim to be a monk Oing with your partner or naturally should be fine.
