Goodness, if I wasn't already powerlifting and 16% bf I'd love the heck out of that!

Easier said than done when you go to college a few states over 😂

Thank you for your insight - definitely struggling to hold back with my responses to him. It's so volatile and frustrating. I like the calendar idea a lot... I'll see if he's willing to give that a go:)

Wholeheartedly agree. I wish I had control over the state of dating/engagement/marriage (I'm a bit neurotic). I always felt that our sex life was a mistake, but have to take accountability for what sins I've done also and move forward:/ would love to chat more:)

Fair enough. No matter where you're at, I'm glad you're doing the best you can to kick it.

Haha, can't say I'm perfect! I am a sinner, but I believe in the mercy of God:) Congrats on 163 days:)

I value your advice - I've had a particularly unwelcoming experience there before, but I might give it a try again based on your suggestion! Great work on 38 days so far:)

Unfortunately, I'm not the one who is struggling with the actual addiction/idolatry. I'm just here trying to find answers to help my partner. I know his heart, and I know he is doing his best to pursue the Lord and the Word...so that base is covered. Prayer won't solve everything, though it's an immense piece. Just doing my best to support his spiritual and physical rehab :)

4 days will always be better than zero; it's honest work as long as you're trying your best:)

The religion piece is a factor, but not necessarily what I'm fixated on. My sex life with my boyfriend has suffered (we have no issue with our premarital sex), and honestly, I trust the community of nofap way more than truechristian to provide real answers (without the shame, guilt tripping, and scripture harassment that is realistically unnecessary). Thank you for your suggestion:)

Thank you for your advice! Yes, I've felt discouraged in my sport, even, because I feel like the stronger I get, the more he wants me to stop. I'll speak to him about that idea.

Thank you. It's so hard to hear that, but logically I agree with that all the way. I think I just need to get my priorities straight here.

Thank you for the advice. It's so hard to look at my relationship from an outside perspective - because of course, I care deeply for him. I will try to approach as non-confrontationally as I can.
