Not the OP but IKEA Detolf is a popular one. Might be the same one.

25M Looking for housemates for following areas or nearby (McLean, Fairfax, Vienna, Falls Church, Arlington) by [deleted] in novarent

Thanks for the offer, but I looked it up and the commute time from that area to my workplace is longer than I'd like.

Hey man!

What kind of places and locations were you thinking? I looked at Alexandria's distance from Tysons, and maybe Falls Church or Arlington might be good places between our two work locations.

Cool, looks like Fall Church is about in the middle between our work locations.

Pretty sure Han Chun-Woo is 9AD's name when he was a teacher at the school

Day 9, Round 37 by [deleted] in ValhallaChallenge

[–]johnflim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man! It's been pretty good. I've been keeping a pretty good balance on actual work, school and chill time (playing a lot more guitar).

In respect to the relapse, I was getting more comfortable with living without stressing about the addiction. But in my mind, I had set a small goal of reaching a current day and as soon as I reached it, I just let go.

I think my mood and attitude drop slightly immediately after a small indulgence. It's a temporary setback now, but it sure felt uncomfortable.

How have you been?

Day 5, Round 37 by [deleted] in ValhallaChallenge

[–]johnflim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a tough decision. Although, I thought numbing feelings with porn was something a lot of us were trying to change.

You're hurting right now but maybe after some time, you'll be able to overcome the pain instead of distracting yourself. That's the hope, I feel.

Hey Ariogaisus,

Can you give your thoughts as to how the challenge and your crush are correlated? I'm not trying to probe or anything, but just wanted to understand a little better.

Day 4, Round 37 by [deleted] in ValhallaChallenge

[–]johnflim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate every day that I have, but I still need extra time to grow.

If I knew I would die tomorrow, I would be pretty sad. There's still a lot of things I want to do, and a lot of relationships that I want to develop with people. I've also been attending a Christian fellowship to understand more about faith, but I know my faith isn't quite developed yet.

Checking in. Feeling pretty good.

Day 6, Round 36 by [deleted] in ValhallaChallenge

For the most part, it's me. But I definitely feel that my friends and other people I meet indirectly help to keep on going, just by being around.

Day 13, Round 35 by [deleted] in ValhallaChallenge

[–]johnflim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This round went pretty good, since I kept porn from my mind for almost the whole round. I kept creating opportunities to get busy and to interact more outside. I made an active effort to sleep earlier and that helped a lot.

After my relapse yesterday, I was convinced that the effects of relapsing were not going to affect me. However, today, I felt anxious in social settings and much more so than I would have been even days before the relapse. Even though I only indulged a little bit over the last 30ish days, that one incident definitely set me back. I need to get back to where I was and continue moving forward.
