I had a dream about nofap last night. In my dream I was traveling in the USA and outside of a store there was a donation box for nofap. I thought it was so cool, since I was a member. I was kind of embarrassed but I shyly donated some money to it. Later on I seen someone else donate to it. And I approached them and asked if they are part of nofap. The hesitantly said yes and I said I am too and asked here user name in case we have talked before. But the person was too embarrassed to say what his user name was and I was too embarrassed to say what mine was. Mostly because in my posts I pretty much lay out all my thoughts and problems as far as addictions and emotionally go. And idk seeing someone in real life after reading all that personal info. It's kinda scary, and makes u feel vulnerable. Also in the dream I tried to Google if nofap was having a convention or a special event somewhere in the USA. I thought it be fun to meet other members. Here is a question. What would u do if u met another nofap member? A member that u had previously had a discussion with, or read there posts. Would you feel awkward? Would it be a triggering situation for you? Would it be a good experience? This is the second time I had a dream about meeting othwr nofap members. What do you guys think about this scenario?
It would probably be weird. Really weird. Depending on the member, I might be triggered. I would try to converse with them but nah bro, too awkward.
I've told some at school but not any in my family but overall it's embarrassing. Too tough to tell family.
Ya I was just thinking if there was such an event where nofap members could meet up and maybe there would be someone giving speeches and tips and how we can help ourselves get over our addictions. But being a girl, and knowing every guy around me has an addiction. I'd be super triggered. I think a lot would. It might be hard to control ourselves. Or maybe in real life everyone is more discreet and shy and wouldn't even try to start something up. It might be a bad idea.
I think it'd be cool to meet someone from Nofap. It'd be nice to openly share ideals and thoughts with like-minded people. Could be triggering, knowing the urges and desires of some, but it's all a matter of restraint. I might tell a cousin or friend irl about Nofap, but I'd have to gather the courage first.
I clicked on this thread and saw your last reply @Deadlihood. I was scratching my head and scrolling up through the thread looking for when I said that quote. Then I realized it's in your signature and it's from your Benefits Of Watching Porn thread. So really though, umm..........what do I win?
