    Since I've been going through this process, I've seen something emerge: beauty. Real beauty (not the fake stuff that porn believes to be beauty). Don't get me wrong, a lot of the women in the porn industry are very attractive, but the person on the outside probably doesn't match the person on the inside. I have grown to love my wife even more by going through this process. We just had a baby recently and she developed some stretch marks from this pregnancy. I've got to say: those are the sexiest stretch marks I have ever seen!!! Because they are real! They are life. They are a life shared with me in the most intimate of ways. Why was I constantly chasing something that wasn't real? I had a bad association in what true beauty actually was. I am now seeing porn for what it is and despise it. I am developing a true hatred of porn because of what it does to people. Looks can be very deceiving. You have to get past the looks and see what they are trying to do: they are trying to rob you of EVERYTHING!!! Find beauty in the things that are REAL and not things that are a click away.

    Nice post. Physical beauty, like peak athletic performance, is temporary. I should know. The older I get, the better I used to be. ;-)

    Congrats to the newborn! I hope I find myself a great and loving woman some day with whom I can bond and have a family. There are a few things I want more in life right now and although I might be closer than I think, I am still (sometimes) feeling like this will never happen. Overcoming these mental road-blocks for good is one of my biggest personal challenges.
    Although I definitely had some decent shots in the past, I am not so sure if those potential relationships would have ended well for my part. Because back then, I was not only needy but also quite crippled by anxiety, shyness, shit-talking, low self-esteem/confidence and floppy body language to name a few. These things more or less followed me for a decade and a half and it wasn't until I started the self-improvement journey two years ago (and the Nofap journey last winter) I started to see a pattern that led to finding the root-cause.
    This cause was PMO and everything changed to the better when stopping these destructive habits for good. It did nothing but overflowing my mind with lust and social anxiety for years.

  4. Congratulations on the new baby and the fog clearing from your vision so you can see deeper more profound beauty.

  5. Porn is all about superficial surface level b.s, and they trick you into thinking that that is where happiness is at. Could not be further from the truth. Congratulations on your baby.

    I understand and can relate to everything you mentioned. I was like that myself.

    Yes. I see beauty in everything. Even on a cloudy rainy day there is beauty. I have met some pretty amazing people. When we take the blinders off we can see so much more.
