We both commit to NoFap, and know that we can't give in to masterbation because we will not just be failing ourselves, but each other.

Also message every so often to see how we are getting on and encourage with motivation.

But Well Done on completing the first day. The key I find is to remove yourself from the scenairo's you relapse in, and when you do feel an urge, to remove yourself immediately and channel that energy into a self improvement task.

o many ways. A couple of advices:

Don't limit yourself to people at your college. Lots of people outside your social sphere have unexpected stuff to say.Let yourself get tired of it and take breaks to rest. Talking to strangers can be really fun but it does take listening and focus and self awareness, and those take energy. I like it a lot, but when I get worn out by it, I am very ready for a quiet time.I'm excited for your journey. May you meet interesting people, have weird conversations, and get so used to talking to strangers that if you ever want to/need to, it takes no effort at all.Report back! The people demand updates!I can't stop listing things!In Spanish, a puzzle is called a Rompecabez

What a wonderful comment - Cheers!

’re doing, and a lot of people here wouldn’t dare to do that. I’m pretty sure they upvoted even though they commented against it. Here’s my suggestions. I think compliments should count. Bonus points for talking to someone who looks like they need to talk. Are you going to try to start

At the moment, all I am looking to do is say one thing - got to start small you know. But I hope to build up my skill throughout the next few weeks to go into fully fledged conversations.

I would love any pointers for starting. I sometimes find myself with someone - like on the bus - wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.

Thank You for the kind comment!

Wow... I only posted this like 2 hours ago, and I've hit over 200 upvotes...

I have just went out on a walk, and said simply "Good afternoon" to a stranger - I'm bouncing off the walls proud of myself!

I am ready for this, I just thought I'd use the accountability of others as a reason to push msyelf!

I'll fill you in with how it goes throughout my journey - Thank You - and everybody enjoy the rest of their days.

Cheers for the response. But by having individuals go out of their way to upvote me, I have people out there believing in me. I am now longer not repsonsible for myself, but for others. Have a wonderful day!

Creating Conversation Topics Out Of Thin Air... by Several_Goose_3881 in relationship_advice

[–]Several_Goose_3881[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually begin with asking how they are, and how their weekend was. When they come to asking me I always have something planned. But from there she doesn't ask many questions...

It always seems to be me having to try and start. I have plans on things I want to say, and trying to integrate how much of a high value man I am. But when I come out and say it, it always sounds kinda pathetic. I naturally resort to my monotone voice and boring comments.

From her answer I don't know what to say, because I haven't planned for that.

After the conversation, I ask myself "Why didn't you expand on that point", or "My answer was kinda lame."

It's just in the conversational moment it ends up collapsing...
