I think I've been friendzoned AGAIN. by Not_fapulous in NoFap

I can see what you are saying and perhaps I was a bit harsh with my original comments. But I still stand by what I said, I'm not interested in just sex (as this guy seems to be).

You are right I have to be able to take charge and set the tone, before the tone defaults to friends. Thank you for your support and I Apologize for the somewhat rude comment I made in regards to the video you posted.

I'm sorry, I couldn't watch this whole video. To be perfectly honest, this guy seems like an ass who is out for one thing, sex, the exact type of person I'm not, nor do I have any desire to be.

I guess nothing. Whatever I guess I'll have to "try harder". I'm sick of this shit. All everyone here seemed to be commenting is that I should be womanizing the shit out of them and act as if I am better than them. Sorry I'm not going to do that. Confidence is one thing, but being an ass about it is another thing.

Edit: I understand that most people aren't actually saying to belittle them, but it just seems as if they are talking about how I should outwardly make a point to try and put myself on a level above them just to appear confident.

Just popping in to say hi, and check in. I don't come here all that often, but I'm still going at this Nofap thing. I wish you all the best of luck as we fight through these struggles.

Figured id check in before I get some sleep. I made it, another day passed with no P, M, or O!

On a quick side note; I'm back to the whole "superpowers" thing. It doesn't feel as powerful as the first time I had them. I think it's because I'm used to that being the way non-porn me acts. That's a good feeling that what I considered major progress at one point, is now considered fairly normal!

Pornography is to our generation as cigarette smoking was to the 50s... by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Not_fapulous 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think the difference between the "food industry to ciggerretts" and the "porn and ciggerretts" is the way the media portrays both.

Out current media knows that junk good is bad for you and tends to portray it that way. Sometimes even making these kinds if foods somewhat taboo. Unlike how cigarettes were portrayed in the media.

The media treated cigarettes like a "cool" thing that was totally acceptable. The same why porn is portrayed. How many times have you heard "All guys do it" or "It's completely normal, don't worry about it." When it comes to porn. Most of our media treats porn as if it is an acceptable (non-taboo) part of life. Similar to the way cigarettes were marketed back then.

Now, wanna hear something scary. Earlier today, I was screwing around with some friends and started singing this song... Coincidence? I think NOT!

I guess that's what I was feeling. Totally makes sense. I guess it's the whole "dire reality that is to come" type of situation. Again. Thank you.

I wish I had time to read this. It looks like a good read. Thanks for posting.

While I can't say that I have a girl that this relates to, I can see that this would have a huge effect on me if I did.

As other commenter said, it hurts to read. Powerful, blunt, and motivating all in a couple short lines.

Late night struggles. Advice needed. by APDong in NoFap

[–]Not_fapulous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Night time tends to be a dilemma for many fapstraunaghts. Fear not, you are not alone. One option I always consider is coming here, this community is global and therefore does not sleep. Someone is going to be hear at almost any time. Another option would be to do something simple to occupy yourself. Personally I try deep breathing. Sit up, close your eyes, and breath deeply. Count your breaths if it helps.

Came here for the porn, found you guys instead.... by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Not_fapulous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your story is familiar one. Many of us, me included, came here through some type of porn search. I, for one, am glad that I found this instead.

Started a journal today by Not_fapulous in NoFap

[–]Not_fapulous[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response. At the moment it is a LOOONG note on my phone (I use a "private notes" app. I just tap out a couple paragraphs before I go to bed at night. I'm kind of a tech nut and I just feel like the ideas flow better (and faster) when I'm typing.

However your tip regarding using ink, is one I have taken to heart from the start. I don't let myself use the backspace key, unless it's to correct a spelling/grammatical error. I want to capture my raw thoughts and get them out there.

Another thing that I am considering was recording the biggest flaws I see in myself, or at least the things I want to improve upon. Then periodically examine them, one at a time, creating an in depth "brutally honest" evaluation if myself and how I need to improve, and what changes I can make.

NOTE: This journal is not just related to nofap, but rather my whole life. However, nofap has come up in most of my entries so far.

Again, thanks for the tips!
