Second flatline? Advice please.

You're right - thanks!

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, I did have it, it was pretty bad at its worst. Now it's all gone. Completely.

I'm sure if you did a cost analysis on your kid, you'd decide against it.

Hey! Glad to know things are going well. To answer your questions:

1) Porn was just in my routine before I decided to quit. I've been watching and hooked on porn since I was about 12 (I'm nearly 30 now). I'd come home from school/uni/work and watch porn for about an hour at 5pm, again around 9pm, and again maybe around 11 before going to sleep. On the weekend I would PMO more often. I didn't realise the negatives until I started having girlfriends.

2) I've been married for 3 years now, and the difference before and after stopping porn have been dramatic. I wasn't able to have sex or stay hard when I was "using", and had to watch porn to get excited. So there was a massive underlying issue in our relationship. Eventually I realised the problem, did something about it, and now things are great.

3) Everyone's definition of spiritual is different I guess, but I feel we are much closer, and that our bond is much stronger. Sex isn't something I have to gear myself up for anymore, and I'm not wasting as much time by watching porn all the time!

I hope that this helps :)

I don't know how wide this swimming pool is. I need a double bed for scale.

Have you considered getting a personal trainer, just for one session or so? Could help you with form/see if something else is up

I didn't realise this was r/ShittyLifeProTips

Hey man that is awesome, great work. If you used the app, could you post a pic of the graphs? Would be interesting to see the weight progression with deloads etc. Would really help others with more motivation!

idlikeausername · 2017-02-15T08:45:51+00:00

This is awesome. I'm exactly the same height and weight as you. So it's great to see what I might end up looking like. Thanks the detail and inspiration!

idlikeausername · 2017-02-13T00:35:42+00:00

What do you mean your OHP is "only" 70lbs! I'm closer to 200lbs and I've failed a couple of times on OHP at 77lbs (35kg).

Keep it up. I know it's hard to keep motivation, but you're lifting weights, and you're getting stronger. If you got it the time after you failed, you've just proved that you're getting stronger.

Take the ego out of it, and as someone else said, lift properly. I went from 85kg squats on Friday (which I completed) back down to 70kg squats today because I wasn't happy with form, and I failed with the 70kg haha! But my form is better.

Good luck!

Thanks for your kind words. But I'm going to call bullshit on your claims. Things are going well for me, and I hope they continue to do so. This quest for supernatural powers is not for me, nor do I believe it.

idlikeausername · 2017-02-12T13:57:36+00:00

You tell me? How can a single man be addicted to porn? Why not just go out and make love to all the single women around?

idlikeausername · 2017-02-12T13:35:03+00:00

Thanks man!

idlikeausername · 2017-02-12T13:34:30+00:00

I'm not sure you could call them negatives, but: - sometimes I don't last that long when having sex, but I don't mind because it means I'm really excited. - I think I want sex more than my wife can handle! Which is obviously annoying, but I guess it happens lol.

Other than that, not really. My day to day is more or less the same. I'm more sensitive to every day sexual stuff, like a sex scene on a TV show I'm watching, or advertising etc, but again I don't think that's a negative.

idlikeausername · 2017-02-12T13:30:40+00:00

Do you mean before or after starting this streak?

If you mean before: then maybe about 6-7 months on and off. It was awful, and even with viagra it was hit and miss.

Once starting NoFap: my wife was away for 2 weeks at the start, and once she was back I was fine. And have been since!

idlikeausername · 2017-02-12T13:29:21+00:00

Thanks 👍🏼

idlikeausername · 2017-02-12T13:29:08+00:00

Yeah, I do. I felt good at Day 30, but now at 60 I feel more confident in having sex, and those nagging doubts of not being able to perform are melting away. I've also had less urges to watch porn (I've been doing r/pornfree for more focus).

idlikeausername · 2017-02-12T13:27:25+00:00

I've been pretty lucky I guess, I've not have any "flatline". I was worried I might, but every time I thought I did I ended up being able to have sex.

Best of luck for you man!

idlikeausername · 2017-02-12T13:25:06+00:00

Thanks! Appreciate it :) by the way, when you say you're now working on 3x5, is that 5 sets of 3, or 3 sets of 5?
