More attracted to watching sex then actually doing it?

    Basically I'm ashamed to admit but lately especially after like 4 relapses just now. I feel like im a little more attracted to watching people have sex then actually having it. Watching porn basically. Like real sex I'm still okay with and think it's good but I feel like I would find watching it slightly more hotter/attractive idk. Does anyone experience the same problem?

    I hate that i feel this way. I didn't feel this way before the relapses that much. I know before I was into doing it myself with a real girl more. Now it's a little tough to tell which it shouldn't be.

    I have the same experience. Because in Porn you can see the women body in different angles, the face of the women and so on.
    Roman Emporer Tiberius and Caligula let their slaves have Sex in front of them. It was more exciting than to have own sex.
    I admit, that masturbation is also more satisfaction than normal sex, cause you know your body better and know how to control the situation.

    That is interesting on the emperor thing. I personally don't like the idea of being in to that. It seems like you are being chucked. I think for a lot of people it's porn induced sexual conditioning. Not the fact that people are just digging the angles. Especially if itd like pov Porn you are watching. Because the idea is the guy is supposed to be you. And you shouldn't prefer that over real sex. That's how I see it.

    Yeah, the same problem for me. Porn feels more exciting than real sex.

    However, I was on a 120 day run a while ago, and there I got my taste back for real sex.

    So my best suggestion for curing this is going on a NoFap streak. You will find your partner more attractive, and if your single, you will do more work, finding a real partner.

    Same issue, and ive abandoned porn for years already and had quite a lot of sex.. it takes a looooong time for me to readjust. Some best times of having sex were better than porn tho. So ..

    Dude this comment like saved my soul or something. I just got off a 150 day streak with a few relapses like 6 relapses in the span of 3 days. And my cuckiness kind of came back to me. It made me feel more like watching rather than doing.
    You are right I think. You need to get to a streak to readjust and start liking having actual sex versus watching it.

    Thanks Man. This comment gives me hope. I was on a 150 day streak and broke it and my watching sex desire came back after I relapsed. But I think if I get back on it I'll get better. And your reply gives me hope of that thanks.
    It's been a few hours since my last relapse and I already feel kind of better.

    Do u have any personal suggestions on how to readjust? I am abstaining from porn seriously, but it seems like in this very moment i'm not attracted either from sex or porn. I am trying to do exercises with my imagination instead of using porn, (just started) to make it easier. Have u tried anything in particular ?

    Excercising with your imagination = fantasizing = mental porn usage. Its the WORSE. Stop it, it absolutrly hinders any progress and leads to relapse.

    Instead do this
    1) dewire by stop PMO
    2) RE-WIRE by having a sex with your girl (no prostitutes)

    This is the only way which works.

    If u want it even better, learn to not ejaculate during sex. Do not orgasm.

    It's quite understandable actually. In a lot of mainstream/industry content, everything is glamorized and edited beyond belief. Every camera angle has to be perfect, every noise and movement scripted, it's the equivalent of thinking an action movie represents real life. Of course the action movie sounds more preferable! It doesn't show any of the strange sounds, or mess ups, or awkwardness, or smells, or imperfect visuals in real sex and intimacy. I don't think it's training you to be a cuck or anything like that, because even real life cuckholdry isn't as glamorous as its video equivalent! Even if the actors themselves tend to be in great discomfort most of the shooting, the presentation is pretty enough for the viewer to get past that. It's a pit that a lot of addicts and non addicts alike fall into, so don't feel like you've done anything wrong in particular.

    My advice would be to at the very least stop watching industry content permanently, and even amateur stuff - while still harmful - is not nearly as bad since it often has those aforementioned elements that the big industry stuff doesn't. Best thing you can do however is to stop watching and start focusing on the real thing. If you continue to MO after, the best solution is to just focus on your physical body, or encounters you've had before, rather than replaying those picture perfect clips in your mind.

    I don't agree with that honestly and think you can rewire with prostitutes although I don't endorse doing so as prostitution is fornication and I don't really belive In supporting that. But thanks for the advice anyways.

    Whatever, prostitutes are a rabit hole and at the bottom is the same misery as at the botom of porn. Enjoy if thats your thing. Prostitutes are empty and its a substitute to porn. Thats why your porn influenced brain came up with this briliant idea...
     

  15. A reboot will only heal the process in which it takes to feel normal again and situate the problem. It really sucks because I am in the same situation, but we got to control our self's.

    Online has re wired our brains to enjoy fake slush rather then the real deal... Just imagine one day, you do get a beautiful vibrant Woman, but it's less appealing in bed. This can be something to look up to.

    Because prostitutes are live porn. You are using them and paying for them to “ accept” you as opposed to a genuine connection you might have with someone you aren’t paying.

    It's definitely not the same as porn. Porn is watching whereas the other is doing. Porn is bad because of the way it wires our sexuality to a computer screen so being addicted to it is a problem. However seeing a sex worker is seeing a real person. I don't have a problem with the way people have sex in porn either I just have a problem that I can only watch.

    As for empty sex. Sex can be empty even with girls who aren't sex workers. But I definitely think it's more fulfilling then simply being someone who only watches.

    Spending on Prostitutes and escorts can be a problem though because you end up wasting money.

    That's my opinion
    You can have yours.

    Nothing wrong with porn you can experience. Porn is bad cuz we are masterbating to a computer screen and it isnt real, but actually having sex with the women wouldn't really be a bad thing. Porn is not wrong for being fast paced or having sex with attractive women in a certain manner. It's bad because you are training yourself to watch and not do. Prostitutes don't have that problem.

    Porn is bad because of the dopamine high you get. As an addict you will just switch your high to real life woman which isn’t healthy. Maybe go to the posts about people who are now addicted to hookers instead of just porn and see how that’s working out for them.
