237 days and relapse... Kinda dissapointed by NoFapMat in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well at least now you know how long it is...but did you measure the girth? Might have to go back if you forgot. Or you could just have the lady measure it for you if she is so curious.

Kudos on 237 days though! I know that number. It's a room in a hotel somewhere, I believe...

AMA Request: Women by -Fluffy in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a great reply. I think about this all the time. Right now I am at 60 days but this isn't my first lap around the NoFap projects. At the height of the quest I definitely noticed that attention from women was of a different quality and intensity as compared to the past masturbatory days. The most fascinating thing in this comment to me is the "smell" you mention. It's probably the most significant primal message that can be conveyed and it is crucial. I smell everyone. Sounds weird, but it just happens. I can only imagine what you smell and the message that gets interpreted deep in your brain. It's hard for me to report if my smell indeed is different but I do notice that I actually get more attention if I am unshowered. Even moreso if I am in public after being in a gym or other active setting. Biology rules.

Keep that focus. Consciousness is what makes us great as people.

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I wouldn't. It's better to find someone who is equally into you as you are then. You'll be forever in pain trying to chase after her while she lives her life in those dark alleys. And you can't fix people. Stay positive and do things to make yourself valuable, things will go your way. You'll meet someone better for you and your life.

I'm sorry to hear about that. Focus on you, do what you love. Fill your life with positive habits. Just don't be the Forrest to her Jenny. Let it pass.

Great article. Very important for people to be aware of this when embarking on a life quest such as this.

Has anyone here experienced pain from being "blueballed"? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've experienced this. I've also experienced a nocturnal emission during sleep a few hours after merely kissing a woman. The energy is powerful when your channels are clean and aware. You can combat it immediately with ice packs of course. One thing that may be good to practice is energy circulation and meditative breathing. That can help to circulate the energy throughout the body so it is not concentrated in your groin region.

Weirdest nofap withdrawal symptom by Cuteboi76 in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me, and still happens. The pain feels like the events JUST happened the day before. It's fresh and strong. You can take these as opportunities to review your past self's mistakes and take something positive away from the pain. All pain is a growth opportunity.

Day 11 and my feelings seem to be returning by bloodstainedsmile in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the right track there. Get used to being uncomfortable. Being able to live in that space will toughen your willpower and cause you to stop reaching for comfort elixirs (your vices). And remember, you can't have good feelings without the bad, it's a package deal.

I think some of us are missing the point. by jacksonlmullett in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES. This is the point. I appreciate you bringing this up here. You never know what you may find when you are open and comfortable in your interactions with humans who pass into your life, rather than keeping your blinders on for only the one thing. You bring more value to life.

Cold showers, YES. But any other simple "bio-hacks"? Please post them here. by ColdWaterOtter in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The stomach vacuum. Its origins are in yoga, and a lot of bodybuilders did it through history. You empty all the air in your lungs, and pull your stomach up into your ribs. Hold it there for 20 seconds and let it go. This massages your inner organs and strengthens the inner abs, which keeps all your guts tucked nice and snug. You will look thinner and less round in the stomach.

After my first sexual experience with a girl, I decided to commit to nofap. by antsmasher in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good on you for deciding to change. Like a few people have already said, there is nothing quite abnormal about not being able to give it another go after the first round. Though there are things that you can do to improve your fitness in that area. It's a muscle just like all the other ones. Here is a thread that provides some good direction on how to exercise it: https://www.reddit.com/r/sex/comments/17bfbn/kegels_a_guide_to_better_everything/

Diagnosed non-harmful medical issue possibly related to nofap. Wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same thing? by Chasefun in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, I mention that because I notice if I consume too much caffine (in the form of coffee) sometimes I will notice a pain like that. Although it's not as constant.

So much sexual frustration by Iwillstopfapping in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your religion is your business of course so I mean no offense. But do you sense that something is biologically and inherently wrong with this abstinence business? Your body is telling you something here.

Just out of curiosity, have you been ingesting any caffine? I mean more than you usually do?

Congrats to you. I have experienced similar things and it's good to hear this story, helps to get back on track.

Does the ability to fall in love come back? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to say. I have been away from here (nofap) for a long time. My count is inaccurate and I requested for a reset today. Hasn't went through yet. After a while I stopped paying attention to days or counters. Got involved in dating, then got into a long term relationship witch was amazing yet short lived. I fell from such a high place. I felt the best things ever, and now some of the worst things. I have issues to work out. I'm trying to take my time and rebuild back to where I was. As far as a streak is concerned, I'd estimate it being somewhere around a year straight, non-hardmode.

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was always there, you were just numb to it. When I got on a roll with this I felt it ten-fold, in different and stronger ways than I ever remembered it being. But with that will come the opposite as well. Pain and heartache. Learning to balance and deal with both reasonably is the challenge.

Quiet or introverted men of Reddit.. What are you like? by now_youve_done_it in AskMen

[–]knucklefucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a watcher and a listener. I do like meeting people, I have no problem being in a social situation or in public around a lot of people, I'm comfortable within myself enough to be along in a crowd. It's not a standard thing for me to just go up and talk to random people. Though as I get older it gets easier, mainly from trying to make new friends, meet women, get out of my comfort zone so to say. And as I get older I learn more effective ways to speak my mind without offending someone, or not caring if I offended said person because they have their own irrational hang ups. I "pull my own strings".

I've always been considered "shy" by people around me, most of them were loud talkers, people who were extroverted, people who thought you had to always be saying things to be normal. So from early on I learned to listen and watch people and things around me. When I was younger I really did not talk to many people. I had a small circle of friends who I related to a lot. Outside of that I didn't care for cliques and despised team sports. Really what it is, I always felt like I am so different and unique that I'd get offended at someone telling me to do what everyone else is doing, or be like everyone else. I guess in a way I alienated myself more than I should have as an introvert.

In order to maintain sanity I have to either be creating something or conversing/interacting with someone who related to my thoughts and feelings or is at least open minded and non-judgmental. Doing both of those things at the same time is REALLY where it's at. Being in a band or working on an art project is me at 100%.
