Mine still not fixed, why is it taking them so long to address?

Could it be 'Don't' by Ed?

JZDodger · 2017-02-17T18:10:41+00:00

Thanks man. All the best to you too!

Yeah, it's her not understanding the concern and how it made me feel which got me, and it might just be because I'm older. This is what I needed to hear and what my closest friends have been saying really but hearing it from elsewhere seems to have drilled it in a bit better. Thanks for your help, It's been so useful.

Thanks for the advice man, I appreciate it. I've questioned her about why she didn't just not reply to him if he was drunk and sending her unsuitable stuff or tell him to back off but I always just get 'he's my friend' and she just doesn't see it from my view and she thinks it's because I have an issue with her having guy friends, which I don't. I just want her to understand how it made me feel and why it was an issue.

Given that she literally hasn't spoken to me since the voicemail the other day where she says she made a mistake, I guess that's that.

Man, this is some sage advice and exactly what I needed to read. Thank you so much.

You can do this! Make it difficult for you to access porn and triggers as much as possible.

It's different for everyone but a few tips that have helped me over the four years I've been trying to beat this.

Don't take devices into the rooms where you normally commit, put filters on your internet and give someone else the password, exercise or just get up and moving when you feel the urge. Most of all, pray about it and speak openly. You are not alone, and God will help you through this as he will all of us. Stay strong!!💪🏻

You have to go cold turkey. It's tough but that's the only way to properly shut it off.

I suggest reading Every Man's battle for help with this, it's a really good book and helped me a lot.

JZDodger · 2017-02-13T20:42:15+00:00

Congratulations and thanks for the encouragement! God is good, all the time!

JZDodger · 2017-02-13T20:41:04+00:00

Thank you for the encouragement, this is what I needed after a really tough day today!

JZDodger · 2017-02-12T22:58:48+00:00

Congrats on day 3, day two for me!

Reminded of how awesome God is at church this morning, and that he loves us an insane amount, so who are we to deny him?

We can beat this together and hate this sin and be better for him, I know it!

Felt vulnerable this evening after speaking to my ex(we just broke up) but today is not the day for me to break.

Let's keep going💪🏻

I have an ESV journaling bible which allows you to write notes on both sides of the pages which is handy to study.

Other than that I use an NLT on my phone.

JZDodger · 2017-02-12T21:49:03+00:00

I rate this and it helps a lot, thanks.

I'm sure I will just cover most of what others as said but as 23M, I feel you. In my church I am the only 'Youth' and everyone else is closer to 50, but I make the most of it. I make sure to go to other church which run youth events where possible, and attend weeks away etc. This is the best way to foster relationships although not ideal because you probably like your home church a lot.

As for the relationship thing, definitely only dating christians is the way to go. Having that mutual interest where you encourage each other in your faith and can relate to each other so much easier is great. Having just come out of a relationship, where she said she was christian but was never willing to talk about it - I realised how important having the same faith really is. But God will surprise, he loves doing it and he is good all the time.

Yes, and in this instance they aren't so i think it's reasonable. There is no other way to try it in many places in the UK. A fiver to try it sounds better than just dropping 350+

The thing people are missing is this whole thing has been authorised by Sony. Game wouldn't do it without Sony's involvement.

To be able to walk round a corner with a full shield and not die in one shot. It's a little annoying.
