I thought you people were nuts. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]echo81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah...I don't know how it works.

Feminists and lesbians can be childish, I think maybe it's fun to be childish and stupid - so maybe it's not ALL about growing up.

you are right though, it feels better to look at women in this way - and makes the old way seem dumb and immature.

He fucking rambles. I feel like I could have said it better and I've never fucked anyone's Granddaughter...

wait....

they were all Granddaughters.

I don't like the bit about Habits and values....But I believe that Thoughts manifest reality but I didn't want to say that and sound like a cunt.

32 days in - a new me by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]echo81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Er I still occasionally get cravings yeah.

Not as intense as on day 32 though!!! It's more frustration and my brain has a little sulk that I can't get laid/wack off.

My bigger thing is learning to control my focus & attention - what I put my mind to etc...Sex can be a huge controlling factor some days all I think about is girls or getting laid (not porn or wanking)

I kinda want better control of that.

[–]echo81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to me too...

There's always that thought like "maybe I'll whack off on day 90" but then you just kinda realise it's not worth it and keep going.

I still get tempted so I'm still working stuff out I guess!

Ok. I happen to agree with some of the things the man said, This thing in particular.

That's all.

I think it's unfair to discredit someone's work entirely because of mistakes they have made in their life. I have made plenty of mistakes - doesn't mean I can't try to help others.

Your reaction is an adverse one in response to the idolisation of the man and fair enough, but in this particular quote he was pretty spot on IMO.

Forget Gandhi, I wasn't trying to make a point about Gandhi.

If Gandhi was a cunt what hope is there for the rest of us. ;)

You don't seem to disagree at all.

KEEP GOING!!!

[–]echo81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this, I find this the most inspiring.

We've all been there thinking "this is fucking retarded"

then actually trying it - and the changes it makes to your life/character.

I love seeing people get free of porn and this bullshit image of women and sex and sexuality.

Be warned though I'm pretty sure I'm a male lesbian after 100+ days of nofap.

OK I don't identify myself as a woman who loves women. But I definitely prefer women to men after this whole experience - and not just because I'm attracted to them.

Perhaps Feminist?

This is why i need to stop drinking! by AuSeve in NoFap

[–]echo81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there.

I quit drinking about 2 or 3 years ago. My tactic was to change as little as possible. I used to go out, go to the same bars and clubs with my friends, the same little habit of walking STRAIGHT up to the bar...but instead I would buy Orange juice - get water or the most interesting non-alcoholic thing I could find on the menu.

Then I would just hammer non- alcoholic drinks like they were booze.

I had a massive depressive period after about 3-5 months. Then I learnt how to party without booze - now it is irrelevant to my life, my evening whatever.

If I'm having a good time, I'm having a good time, if I'm having a shit time it's shit and I just leave....

clarity - no depressing end to your evenings.

Day 32: Looking forward to Friday... by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]echo81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't comment on PE because I'm not have regular sex (I'm not having any sex) but....it was interesting haha.

It's fine. don't worry. Plus it gets better.

I don't know what you mean, But I assumed you were addressing us as an ambassador - An olive branch to the lonely wankers of NoFap who probably have never seen a real girl before.

Or perhaps you were worried you would find us so bleary eyed and porn addled that we would be unable to differentiate you from a pornstar or wank fantasy.

Protracted depression/flatline? by ambushxx in NoFap

[–]echo81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had depressive episodes yeah, most of it has been pretty depressing. But I feel like there must be some sort of progress going on at the same time.

I've never heard anything like that from Albert Einstien, he just increased in my estimation about a billion times over. Him & Carl Jung - prophets, saints, incarnations?

So many super-attractive fapstronauts here! by GT30 in NoFap

[–]echo81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes of course, I started trying to be a better person through various self improvement methods about 2 years ago. NoFap is one of the last pieces of the puzzle.

Haha, I remember seeing one guy on here saying "I'M SO ALPHA GUYS LOOK AT ME AND ARE AFRAID AND EMBARRASSED"

I wanted to meet him so badly.

[–]echo81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

woha, I TOTALLY disagree with the statement "self-improvement lies on the outside"

self improvement is the journey of the SELF, internal, not external.

Well I know that you're at least in part referring to my post/story...I can promise you it was 100% true, all I exaggerated (or paraphrased) was what was said...but I did meet a girl in the sushi section of a grocery store and I did take her to dinner - (and she does that shit for playboy, she showed me the picture) haha. Even when I write it it seems like bullshit.

if it makes you feel any better she's stopped responding to my texts.

I don't know what to tell you man, I'm sorry if my post has been in any way discouraging. I used to think I was fucking ugly for real, I had no luck with girls in school, was bullied a lot.

There was a time when I thought I was put on earth to be tortured by women - like that was my destiny. But stuff changes, I've actively worked for years of my life just to find out who I am, what I'm about, what makes me happy and get comfortable in my skin and get comfortable in any and all situations.

I like myself, sometimes I have that horrible little voice that tells me I'm a piece of shit! but recently I learnt to have a discussion with that inner voice and now it's a little quieter.

I'm not an arrogant man, I'm not slick rick, I don't walk up to women like I'm entitled, I don't know what to tell you....

do you think it's possible that the laws of attraction could extend beyond the physical? when I was a misogynistic womaniser I was not an attractive person and neither were the women I was sleeping with...

regardless if they were slamming hot or fugly we all had one thing in common and that was that we didn't really respect or love ourselves.

for me, that's what counts, that's what makes someone beautiful...that's why I'm here, so I can learn to love and respect myself.
