    I stumbled across a problem for me.

    For years I have had a sissy addiction, where I pretend that I'm a girl when I'm PMOing.

    Since I'm a guy, this can never happen. However, instead, I have switched to pretending to be a girl on dating sites so that I get the attention and sexual messages that a girl would get. It has become so bad, that I feel I have become addicted to catfishing.

    I have a GF who knows nothing of this.
    I am very ashamed of my behaviour and all the people, that I am deceiving, but I can't stop. I am quickly returning, when I get an urge, to get the ultimate kick of men responding to me, that they want to meet for sex.

    I have to come clean about this in some way, therefore I am using NoFap as an outlet...
     
  2. It is because of people like you I never use online dating which is probably a good thing, also meeting women is probably 10x better in real life anyway but I really wouldn't know because I tend to be shy around women. But I can relate a little bit to your sissy addiction. Almost every woman I've crushed on has always made me feel less masculine because of it. Generally I surround myself with more masculine ways of life, hobbies, and interests such as action movies, cars, welding, engineering, grilling, rock music video games, ect. But I tend to feel more sensitive and effete around women. (This is all probably why I don't have a wife or girlfriend it's because I am too sissy like around the opposite sex.) I try to boost confidence as much as possible on here but I feel like I was born to have no confidence with women.
     
  3. My friend catfished me as a young teenager and since then I do not trust anyone who I cannot verify if they are real, I always tell them send a pic of you doing something specific or have a skype call with me, if they will not do either they are fake most likely.

    Yeah dude it's just an escalation from your porn abuse. With a reboot and rewire your cravings for that should lessen dramatically or go away completely. I used to experience the same stuff.

    Check out my story at Am I a Sissy?? (Actually a good story with happy ending, trust me, read the whole thing). I know it may feel really shameful and embarrassing, but once you take the right steps towards developing a healthy sexual lifestyle (since you have a girlfriend you're more than halfway there already), you'll feel a lot less ashamed.

    Usually, Nofap is a community that supports and helps each other. Your message is very attacking: "People like you".

    Anyway, I have had lots of great experiences with online dating, and I met my current girlfriend through tinder.

    But I understand your problems. However, work on yourself, and you can be great with women also, both IRL and through online dating.

    The first line became very personal and attacking. I even wondered if I am on nofap. Just try to be accommodating and supportive. It will cost you nothing, that's the nofap spirit too.
     
  9. You've acknowledged that your catfishing behavior is not good - that's the very first step to get out of it.
    Try and think how bad it is to be decieved by someone on the internet. Stay away from any kind of "triggers" that remind you of your addiction. Maybe it yould be great to have an open conversation with your girlfriend about it all, it depends on the degree of intimacy you guys already have with each other. You won't be able to hide it from her for so long and she may help you to stop.
     
  10. Mate, I see your point somehow but think twice before pointing a finger at someone here, we're fighting the same war. Never forget that.
