    Well boys, yesterday was probably the worst day of my whole 47 day streak so far. I woke up terribly horny for some reason, and had terrible urges all day. Then I get back to my place last night and hear the neighbors having sex. This leads me to download tinder just to seek a release(my logical mind was not functioning at this time). So I was up from midnight until 4 am on tinder asking girls for sex(found a few but did not follow through). Did not masturbate, and did not porn. Just tinder. What are you guys thoughts on this, and have you guys had similar experience? How far back could this have set me?
    Today I was terribly horny again, but managed to fight off the urges. Hoping for a better day tomorrow. I AM DYING FOR FLATLINE

    I've done it, and it's a bad idea. You're only a month and a half into your reboot, it's too soon to give in to your urges. Even if you successfully get it in (Again, speaking from experience), the chaser effect will be so strong that it'll send you right back into PMO. It's not worth it.

    By the way, Tinder I do count as a porn sub. Lusting after women willfully is something you need to avoid at all costs.

    Well i'm not counting this as a relapse. I've had times in real life situations with girls (ie. flirting)that made me just as horny as tinder did. I think the big picture is not masturbating. Porn is basically everywhere if you put it like that. I live on a campus where girls wear tight revealing clothing that triggers me constantly. Should I reset because of that too? Everything is a Psub then

    I use tinder, mostly for the convenience, in the future I'd like to meet women in the daytime or just approach them, that's the dream. Working towards that.

    But I'll say just be careful with Tinder, monitor yourself, make sure you're not just swiping right like you're on the slots, searching for that dopamine high.

    A lot of people here will say to cut it out completely and maybe they're right but my experience hasn't been too bad. I met a really nice girl recently through it and we have quite a genuine, open, sexual relationship now. It's nice.

    I was wrong. 47 days down the drain. Tinder is soft core porn, and can easily become actual porn. It gets you high just like porn does. Stay off tinder. I pretty much locked myself out of being able to download it in my phone. You can do this in iPhones restrictions settings
     
  6. My wife had to explain to me what tinder is. It is a dangerous thing for us who have pmo issues, even more so in the middle of your reboot. To give yourself the most advantage of getting through your 90 days, avoid it.

    Yeah I know, I know
     
  9. If tinder wasn’t 70% fake profiles that are specifically designed to sexually attract you then it wouldn’t be a problem. For me, if tinder isn’t a relapse then it is at least the shortest route to one. It gets me every time

    Yeah well most people on there have the intent to get laid or go on a date in order to eventually get laid. So either way it is triggering because it relates to objectifying women. The thing we need to do the most is stop objectifying women and look for real genuine relationships like God designed it in the first place.
