    Hi,

    I'm in a long streak (156 days, yesterday). Recently i have found a girlfriend and we regularly have sex. The problem is that when we can't see each other for a couple of days huge cravings comes to me.

    And so yesterday, after a struggle with temptation, i've took a time to think about my situation. And I found that my wish was to loose. Why ? I wanted to loose for see trought that perspective another time again, I think it would help me to come back more seriously, boosted with a will to live other things that what I already know and which is killing me softly.

    And that's what happened. PMO appear to me like limited. And I want to run from it definitely. It will be hard to struggle against binge, but I'll do it.

    Anyway, 4 times I met PMO from yesterday, and I want an objective opinion so I ask you: Do I have to reset my counter or no ?

    If it was me, any PMO would mean resetting my counter. Just don't binge, don't be hard on yourself because of this, just continue, because after 156 days, you should be fine as long as you don't binge.

    If you're not committed to hard mode, I'd say that occasional MO, when you can't see your girlfriend, won't do any harm. But without any fantasizing in your mind of course.

    It's not a bad idea ! I'm maybe a little too extreme in my mind, I'm maybe in a "hard mode or nothing" mindset.
    But in every level of my life I've often experienced that moderation is the key.
    I have to think about your proposition because it's risky though.
