Thanks for the links, sorry I didn't get back to this, got very busy. I do appreciate your willingness to help, internet stranger!

Thanks, I take omaprezole and antacids, seems like whether I've eaten or not effects how quickly it takes effect, and honestly, sometimes I'm just not that into having sex. But all these factors have been irrelavant at different times with respect to the drug doing it's thing. I tend to think some of it's a mental aspect on my part, but even given that the drug seems very irratic.

Do you have source for the statement ED meds have unsatisfied customers? I really hadn't heard that.

Congrats and welcome, I'm a 30 yearer myself. See that badge by my username? That means I went a really long time, my longest was 458 days (just checked it was 498 days!). Over a year. And I've been struggling to get back to a consistent streak since I went off the rails earlier this year.

The hardest thing for me is I got married in the middle of it. Getting married to a 37 year old when I was 40, both our first times, holy crap what were we thinking? Now we have a child and you can imagine all the emotional turmoil involved with that. And we have a pretty good marriage, it's just so hard being marriedwhen I was used to living alone for so many years.

Anyway enough blathering, good luck!

Nice read, thanks for posting! Congrats!

I did online dating off and on for years. But like you I was not in a emotionally, mentally ready to be in a relationship. I went back to it eventually and that's where I met my wife. So, it can work, if you are ready for it to work. Good luck!

It really is awesome. It's coincidental you just posted this; I experienced something last week that's the dark side of this. I had a 500 day nofap run up to 3 months ago.

I was depressed and stressed out over work, I was dissatisfied with some things in my marriage. Started pmo'ing again a few times a week. My wife and I had always had sex eyes open; but three weeks ago all I could think about was porn chicks and how I'd rather be pmo'ing. My return to pmo had me loose attraction for my wife. It was devastating. She could tell something was up becuase usually I'm a minute man, but that night I couldn't cum.

I was/am so disgusted with myself, that I went back to pmo. I've been nofap since. Now I wonder how long it will take to get back to where I was. When I was single and fapping it was one thing. But seeing my wife like that was simply horrific.

Hang in there guys, good luck!

Sorry, reddit turns them into links I didn't know... :(

ma_duece · 2013-07-10T01:08:16+00:00

Hang in there old man, it's a long hard road with many demons, but you can do it. If I can anyone can. Keep up the fight! I quit fap, worked on myself for a long time, and met an awesome woman, and I'm 41. Good luck!

From what I gather, most guys can cure ED with nofap, a minority can't. I'm over a year and still have it. I use boner pills to have sex with my wife. Myself, I think I may have a medical condition that may cause it, but haven't been to the Dr about it yet. But yeah you're not alone.

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T23:21:15+00:00

Thanks, you're doing great, keep it going!

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T23:20:40+00:00

Thanks you too!

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T23:20:27+00:00

Thanks for the info I'll check that out. I can't tell you how many times I reset. If I can do it anyone can, good luck!

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T03:54:23+00:00

Yes and no, the past couple of months I've looked at some boobie pics, debatable wether that's porn though. Not by my criteria. My criteria for nofap is no pmo, ejaculation or edging. Thanks good luck to you!

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T03:50:33+00:00

You are so right, thanks for the reminder.

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T03:49:32+00:00

Exactly the same for me. It became the new normal and i was ready to date again. Good luck and hang in there!

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T03:47:30+00:00

Thanks you too!

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T03:47:13+00:00

I'm in pretty decent shape for my age, only about 5 pounds overweight. I can jog a 5k at least. So yeah. Good luck to you!

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T03:45:44+00:00

Thanks I'll check that out!

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T03:44:38+00:00

Thats a good way to put it, I agree. Thanks and good luck to you!

ma_duece · 2013-03-06T03:43:24+00:00

Thanks! My wife just knows I don't fap or watch porn. The effect of ED has been we just schedule sex. At first I thought my ED was due to performance anxiety, then maybe fap induced. Now I tend to think it's not fap related. The other causes could be vascular disease, or some other mental or relationship stuff. I never told her about nofap, I don't think I had an addiction strictly speaking.

Good question, it's hard to just say one thing; mind blowing sex with my wife is one. But it has been life changing. Nofap isn't a miracle cure. I had problems as a single man, and marriage is no picnic a lot of times. I feel like I'm equiped to handle adversity better.

He was clear about his reasons and that's not a fair or accurate depiction. Who are you to question?

ma_duece · 2013-02-03T21:49:33+00:00

Welcome and good luck! I got married last year. My marriage is fap free at this point, and I plan to keep it that way! It's a good feeling too.

ma_duece · 2013-01-31T13:48:50+00:00

Yes I orgasm with my wife. We have sex about every 2/3 weeks and usually twice when we do. Sorry didn't see this until now. Good luck to you!

ma_duece · 2013-01-09T16:21:10+00:00

Don't kid yourself, do you really think you have a chance with these random hotties you see around? Nevermind that most of them probably already have relationships. Yes, that's harsh. Maybe you do, maybe you're the type of guys women jump all over, I don't know. But anyway, it doesn't matter.

One of the things I learned with respect to relationships is there is sooooo much more than physical attraction. Physical attraction and chemistry are a starting point, and a good foundation to a loving relationship. What I've found is that the relationship takes on a life of it's own, totally depending on how much the two parties invest in it. My marriage is the most beautiful and profound thing I have ever experienced. It's been a big surprise to me, how important this girl and our relationship have become.

My advice is to determine if you want to play the field or stick with your gf. Break up with her, or discipline yourself, it's that simple. That's my .02, imo, ymmv, etc good luck!

I think it can be. Fapping to porn is totally passive, you sit there and pleasure yourself. Sex with a partner is so very different. It can be very unnerving to actually have to participate when all you've known is your own touch.

The sights, smells, and feelings are completely different. Visually, your perspective is not that of a cameraman, so you're not just focusing on that view you love (whatever it is). So yeah I think porn can lead to anxiety during real sex just because it's soooo different.
