I don't think I get turned on by anything. I'm day 29. But I don't know I'm trying to remember if I got turned on by anything at all for a while even before NoFap flatlines or anything. Idk... I don't remember if I was physically turned on by any people or even porn. I would always have to manually start it myself. Often I wonder if I'm normal
It varies from person to person. For me nerdy / intelligent girls in glasses smartly dressed does it for me. You could say that sounds like my porn category. However I have tested it in reality and it works. I like intellectual stimulating conversations so i guess the two kind of fit together This is a bit like everyone's "ideal partner" - we all have different tastes - some may say everyone wants a good looking girl yet there's different types of good looking girls; intelligent, thick, short, thin, fat etc
I get exactly what you mean. I feel the same. Last time I was actually really and truly turned on by something, I was 17 years old. Right now, I'm 21. My point of view is that I've become so sensitized to masturbation/porn and desensitized to real pleasures that my brain has only been seeking dopamine shoots. Porn didn't even really excite me. Every time I was PMOing, I had to manually start it. I wasn't turned on, I had to build an erection. I didn't even feel like I was horny, I just HAD to fap without even knowing why. My brain needed its dopamine shoot. Every boner I had wasn't a real turn on like the ones I had before 17 years old, they were just here because my brain was craving for dopamine and because I just felt like I needed to "empty" myself. Right now I'm on day 28, total flatline, no boner since day 3, no urge, not turned on by anything. It will eventually cure and I can assure you that what you experiment is normal. Rebooting will cure this. Our brains are fucked up right now... I hope you can relate!
Sound similar to me. Porn didnt do it for me too. However as pathetic as this sounds i would release by force even if i didn't have an erection! Of course it wont get up if you already done it upto 20 times per day... Dude you're 21 i wish i came across this site before. Am 27... i feel i lost my 20s as well as teens. 20s is the best to find the ideal partner. "Welcome and embrace each erection" - as one member on here says. His words hit home! (Sorry fella i hope you don't mind me nicking your quote i cannot recall your name)
It is day 7/8 for me and at the moment I´m turned on quite easy by girls in nice outfits around. But not when I think of watching porn. The longer I hold out without porn, the longer I recognize that porn was nothing that led to an erection for me. I just was the tool to reach my target -> Satisfaction. Now I hope that I just get turned on by REAL-LIFE things... It might work as long as I don´t touch myself.
