    Okay hello everyone, I am here to share this issue with you all and hopefully get some advice, it's quite complicated.

    So the first time I started NoFap I lasted about 17 days and that was my first streak. I lost due to going through sites like craigslist and other dating sites, and also reading a bunch of sex stories on reddit and online.

    After that I'm not sure how long it lasted but probably about a week, and I lost due to craigslist ads and emails...

    After that I lasted for a good week, and it was this during this week that I failed actually, and that was because I watched porn, but I also made progress and given up with craigslist and dating sites. I still browse it through but only for about 5 minutes a day, but I mainly given up with it as I would rather find an actual partner then a hook up.

    And here's today I lost, and it was different, very different. When I first started out, I had strong will power and I didn't edge or watch porn or anything for my first 15 days or so, on the last two I started going through dating sites/craigslist and failed. But this time it seemed like I didn't care at all, the streak I failed was only 3 days which is my latest one, and I was watching porn for the last two days, edging and just not trying hard in general... I don't know what the cause for that is, maybe it's because I'm single and after started NoFap I'm talking more with people and even interacting with girls this past week, and after I started doing that I keep thinking about it and expecting something to happen.

    I do want to continue with NoFap, it helped me a lot so far, I gained confidence I'm more productive and hardly feel like I'm wasting time, and I don't want to stop. But when I'm really turned on I just stop giving a f*** and do as I wish. And as I mentioned at first when I started I really had a strong will power not to give in.

    If anyone could give some advice it would be greatly appreciated, it was hard explaining it all and I hope that everyone understood it, I apologise for the punctuation mistakes, I know I'm not good at it.
    I will keep everyone updated and post further detail if I missed out on anything.
    Thanks in advance.

    I basically failed 4 times since I started at 29th of January, that's when my account was made and I started NoFap.
