    I have started my journey early last year after finding out about the benefits of nofap. After restraining myself from P for about a month, I realised that I am unable to get hard from watching porn. I didn’t think much about it until it remains like this till now. It’s almost 2 years.
    I did not go hard mode, I do have occasional sex, no P and occasional MO without P.

    What is the problem and how do I solve it. It’s so scary because porn no longer interest me and I can’t get hard. However, I don’t have issues getting hard during sex.

    I think it's a good sign you can't get hard around porn, it means your brain is rewiring to see physical sex as the reason for erousal, but it's confused your body as it's used to porn. It's a scary time but you're going the right way and you should feel proud of yourself. I'm not an expert but I can recommend maybe trying hard mode, as some people have said they experienced a flatline but if you power through you come back stronger than other. Or maybe it's worth seeing a doctor as there could be something more serous going on .

    Any other advices?
     
  4. What is your question/problem exactly? Are you asking us how to get hard to porn?

    You're on the nofap forums. Everybody here is trying to quit porn and have a normal sex life. And you are worrying because you prefer normal sex over porn? And asking us for advice? o_O

    Just want to know if it this normal or common and something that I don’t need to worry about.
     
  6. I'd say that's a blessing. You should be avoiding porn anyway, that's the whole point of NoFap :)
     
  7. Sounds like there is no problem. Just don't watch porn.

    It is normal, anyway. You're learning to be more attracted to real women and less attracted to pixels. But remember: don't watch porn!

    It's normal. It comes with the realization that porn is boring. Which it is. It only works when you're really horny and you would fuck a pillow just to get some release, that's when porn can do something for you.
