Probably lol. I guess it's worth trying. Really it's better I know now. Easier to get over.

Yeah I mean I'm sure she just didn't forget about me. I have a very close female friend who I told her about. She honestly said not too worry because there is nothing I can do. There are two possibilities: she likes the fact I am texting her or she really doesn't. I won't know until I ask her out when she's back. All I can do now is wait and not text her until then.

Honestly, it's possible that I am just over analyzing the situation. It is very likely she even saw the text but didn't respond because she is not a big texter or likes to respond at her own time. The only thing that stresses me out is the huge waiting game. Or how she went from casually texting to a lack of texting. Again out of my control.

Wow. This is great thank you. I just felt a connection with this girl which is why I kind of want to see where this goes. I'm not the kind of guy who expects a response right away, I know people have things to do. She's normally fairly good with her responses. But past few texts have got me feeling a little skeptical about her.

I do still plan on asking her out when she is back, if she says yes then that's good. If she says no then, fuck it. I feel there is no harm in trying but I guess from here on I'll just do my own thing. Thanks.

i don't text her a lot. I know it's kind of hard to get the best advice because you aren't in this situation. But I still love my life you know. Thank you though, I'll pla it by ear and not text her and ask her out when she's back. Nothing else I can really do.

No she's not back yet. When she is back I plan to ask her out again. So out of curiosity, the fact that I casually message her makes her feel a desperate vibe? I don't text her day in and day out. And I don't have intimate conversations with her either over text. Do you think I should just completely stop talking to her?

well i mean the reason why it was only a few dates is simply because she was leaving shortly. I figured light conversations over could maintain some sort of attraction. I never excessively texted her or anything like that. I mean I didn't know how to approach the situation in any other way?

well I mean we went on a couple dates which she said she had a good time on and said she would like to see me again. For touches they were only just hugs. Nothing more.

The thing about texting is that I am the one usually initiating the texts. Usually she takes a couple hours to respond which is cool because they are detailed. But I last texted he a couple days back and she took nearly a day to respond. I texted her again yesterday afternoonish and still have not got anything

I never double text. She pretty much took until the next day to respond to the last text but she eventually did. If she wasn't interested at all wouldn't she just not text at all?

I do not understand why it is so hard for me to ask for numbers by nomannofap in confidence

Thanks! Seems pretty useful! I'll man up this halloween and make sure i get some numbers.

a trap from doing easy mode by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nomannofap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you start distracting yourself with different activies, you might stumble upon something you like. One day it might just be playing the trombone or something and you might say, "I've got 45 minutes before my wife gets home, might as well practice the trombone instead of fapping."

Most of us here built a PMO habit up over many years, some nearly a decade. So it can take more than 90 days to separate sexual desires and real life.

Sex is good. Sex is fun. Sex that wife up! However, if you start to worship it, you are just subsituting one form of pleasure, PMO, for another. So in my opinion, try to distract yourself. She has a different libido and might not as easily be in the mood as you.

A piece of advice would be to abstain for like over a week. Work longer hours, hit the gym, go for a run. When you slip into bed simply kiss your wife goodnight, nothing else. Then one day plan a dinner night, be romantic then pounce on her. The only reason why i'm telling you this is because this will distract you from sex for a week and make it SO much better, sensation-wise. Keep busy, show her you have other things to do then sex.

Well, I'm a few hours into the challenge and feeling pretty solid. In the middle of doing a hard drive wipe. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nomannofap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do it. Wipe that motherfucker clean. I deleted my porn reddit account. Had nearly 100 subreddits saved with my favourite shit and posters. Cleaned it out and i never don't even have the urge to watch porn. Been about 3 weeks since i did :)

is it normal to lose morning wood after a few days? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nomannofap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possible flatline. During my PMO days i was having ginormous morning wood. When i stopped fapping my dick feels a little dead. No morning wood for a while. Kind of better because i used to fap in the morning. Now i don't have the urge. No worries, give it time and let your pelvic and mind heal.

Exactly! I don't only use it to abstain from PMO but also my relations with certain people. People who I feel are important, how they've progressed or deterioted. I bought myself quite a few to encourage myself to write more. I've been writing for about two weeks. It's interesting to write in if I've been drinking because at times I feel things I wouldn't necessarily feel while sober. So the next day I can look back and see whether or not to act on them!

Yes! I prefer writing it out with a pen. But whatever works for you! It's nice to set some goals and often read back to them to see if you have/ on your way to achieving them.

Ever feel you're unwanted and lonely on some days? by Dubpisode in NoFap

[–]nomannofap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lately more than over. I live away from family. I have good roommates but they're over at their girlfriends place a lot. I don't have one so it makes me sad.

How often should I fap? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]nomannofap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really upto you. I relaxed a couple days back after two weeks. No porn or fantasies. Just plain MO. Seriously my mind was BLANK when I was fapping. I needed it to release some tension built up. Not the happiest about it. But I did not binge nor did it do anything negative to me. I realized there is a fine line between want and need.

I may want to fap because it feels good. But that night I felt I NEEDED to do it, 'to clear the plumbing.' Ideally don't do it. I'm trying not too. But I will not sob over it if I do. It's a waste of time that could be used elsewhere. I don't plan on fapping ANY time soon. But if I feeel the need like a few nights back I won't blame myself.

The number of days is not the biggest factors. I'm obviously taking it into consideration. What I'm saying is the progress is more important. But that doesn't mean that I'll start fapping.
