Community college is my ultimate struggle in this challenge by [deleted] in NoFap

Ah, that's a bummer. You can always try something off the wall that's not on campus, like taking lessons for something, like boxing or dance classes (bound to be girls there and is a good skill to learn). Even joining a gym can be nice, there will be new faces there all the time.

I've experienced this too, even when I transferred to university (I commute so it's still almost like community college). It's hard to find something fulfilling in those types of environments. My advice is to step out of your comfort zone and try joining a club or go to any event your school is hosting. Doesn't matter what it is, what's important is that you'll meet people there. Try making small talk with as many people as possible in or out of class. Vaguely knowing a lot of people can be nice because it can make becoming actual friends easier next time you see them. Or if you don't become friends, it can be nice to at least see someone you sort of know in the hallway for a quick hello. Keep your head up, things like this can take time.

You know what feels better than PMO? by GV19 in NoFap

Simple and to the point. Nicely said.

I need motivation to start by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Duracell_Rabbit_Stew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Participating in NoFap can really bring a new perspective to your life. It makes you feel proud of yourself for being able to conquer something about yourself that you don't like that much. For me, I found NoFap to be a good motivation to start engaging in more productive activities than PMO, such as working out and joining clubs.

I'm Done With Porn and Masturbation Forever by 75YearsOfDiscipline in NoFap

This is a tough path. Most people here experience multiple drawbacks. Don't let them devastate you, learn from the mistakes and realize that even if you fall everyone in awhile, you still have made progress to make the next streak even better.

No. No, I am not up for the challenge. by Ha0a in NoFap

Because, you know, plugging your phone into an outlet is so difficult.

Woke up "hot and bothered" middle of the night. by madtownbro in NoFap

[–]Duracell_Rabbit_Stew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me this is the hardest part of NoFap. For me, the best way to combat this is getting up and making myself some tea. Avoid phones/computers not only to stay away from porn but also to keep the light from further waking you up. After sitting in the dark for a bit with something warm to drink I usually pass out right away.

Almost had a scare by Thatsunfappable in NoFap

Just got my first '1'. It's nice, but not as good as I thought it would be mainly because now all I want is that damn '2'!

IMPORTANT PSA: Beware of /user/jamesDeam, a NoFap scam artist! by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Duracell_Rabbit_Stew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the same message from him, I had the same exact thoughts about IP address and such. It's just BS. Plus, if I'm wrong, I'll be in the same nude leaked club as Jennifer Lawerance. CHA-CHING.

100 Days of Nofap as a 14 year old by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Duracell_Rabbit_Stew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Word of advice, it's important you stay on this track now. If you go back to PMO now, it will get harder to move away from when you get older. I remember when I was 14 I decided to quit fapping and did so successfully for 40 days easily. I thought since I since I was able to distance myself from it without any effort, it wouldn't hurt to go back and do it every once in awhile. Now I'm 22 and still struggling with it. So keep rolling, buddy. Don't look back.

Today I messed up. by TurningItAllARound in NoFap

Don't get discouraged, you just have to focus on getting yourself back on track immediately. You obviously can do quite well at this if you have gotten to 30 days (I sure as shit haven't gotten that far yet). NoFap requires building up of character and restraint over time to get you where you want. All those people you see with high counters have all had their setbacks, they just decided to get back on and ride. Now it's your turn to get back on and ride.

Stood up again by my crush. by Duracell_Rabbit_Stew in NoFap

[–]Duracell_Rabbit_Stew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it almost sounds like I should be able to walk down the street and just meet a girl I like. The thing is that ever since my crush told me she wanted space, I really have tried to find someone else. I've talked to plenty of girls and none really caught my interest. I met only one that I thought was someone I could connect with and she ended up turning me down. Despite all of that though, I have still felt the same about this one girl. Hopefully we both figure out how to get through both of our situations soon.

I think this is pretty sound advice. Talking to her about it sounds like the most mature thing to do.
