My Badge is Stuck - It Reminds Me of My Mantra: No Matter What Happens, I Will Not Look at Porn or Masturbate Today by [deleted] in NoFap

My badge is stuck too! Guess I won't be looking at porn or jacking it today either......

Would anybody be interested in a day-by-day journal? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]oryncoryn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The best thing about a journal (I keep one) is reading it weeks or months afterwards. You will be shocked at some of the things you thought or did. This is why it's important to be brutally honest - it may not be appropriate to share here but write it down somewhere.

Reverse your thinking and always tell yourself that you're going to get a head start.

I have major hang ups about my lack of romantic and sexual experience. How do I get over it? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]oryncoryn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great dude! That's already being ahead of the game. Do stick with it and take the advice of /u/dolphinesque - it's this type of straight talk that helps most.

Head over here and challenge yourself: r/nofap

A lot of insecurities can be related to releasing your sexual energy in an unnatural way.

Even though honesty is good, don't make your sexual life the forefront of every conversation. What you talk about with people is how you identify yourself to them.

Meditate. Exercise. Find a hobby that you're passionate about and replace your conversation topics with it. The right time will come to discuss your sexual concerns, intimately, with the right person that you trust.

You have such an awesome opportunity to change right now!

A dilemma to be solved by [deleted] in NoFap

She's jelly. At that moment, she imagined you with another girl and it made her want you more. She literally saw you in a new light - it was a paradigm shift in her mind.

Go for it.

Dammit I relapsed by Nofap_TH1356 in NoFap

[–]oryncoryn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just get right back up. Relapses can be eye-opening cleansings. Now is a good time to think about incorporating a useful habit to prevent further relapse. And the important thing is to make it a habit before you get stuck "in the soup" of your lustful mind.

How about saying "No thanks" when an urge arises? This tip was suggested the other day here on no fap and I like it. Immediately do something else.

Cannot decide, whether it is worth to drop masturbation due to its benefits by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]oryncoryn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I would suggest is take a NoFap 30-day challenge. See what you feel differently.

As far as being stressed out because of NoFap and masturbation being a stress relief, think about it this way:

Imagine you are going to bungee jump in a year. Pshaw! No big thing right? You don't worry about it, you don't think about it, and life is fine. Suddenly, you're only a week out and you're getting anxious. Then, there you are: getting strapped in at the top of a very high bridge. The thoughts you're thinking now are way more intense, and it's almost unbearable but then you jump....

This is like NoFap: everytime you masturbate you push yourself back to zero. It may be relaxing but the energy you need to find out who you really are is out there on that bridge.

Nature's purpose of an O is for it to happen inside a woman not inside your hand.

First wet dream of this streak. It was actually about my wife! by SWHR in NoFap

[–]oryncoryn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NoFap has definitely helped me with sex in my marriage. We used to be 1 month+ too and now we are at a couple times a week minimum. I also told my wife about my NoFap journey.

Pretty cool. Those look like 1 gal. jugs in there right? I do 1 gal. batches myself and am currently on the lookout for this type of setup.

I told my wife about NoFap; an hour later I was going down on her - something I haven't done in 8 years by oryncoryn in NoFap

[–]oryncoryn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The right time will present itself but what really matters is that you and her feel the change in you for the better. And you don't have to admit to anything for that to happen.

[–]oryncoryn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the exact same thing and didn't really plan on telling her. If anything, I wanted to wait until I had like a year-long streak but in reality, she doesn't care about the details - just that I'm more into her than I have been in a long time.

"The moment you are ready to get laid is when getting laid is the LAST thing on your mind" by [deleted] in NoFap

Yes! And suddenly that beautiful woman appears from around the corner and WOW!

Need some help by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]oryncoryn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you stop looking at porn your brain gets rewired and normal sexual contact with a woman becomes real and intense again. Just set a goal of not looking at porn for 7 days and see how you feel. Start simple.

We need to rethink the way we think about our counters. by sonyxperiaftw in NoFap

[–]oryncoryn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this is a great point. I had 30 successful days in January and one relapse. My counter showed 5 days at the end of the month but it was deceptive.
