    Rebooting whilst single vs in a relationship

    I recently read a couple threads in the relationship section of the nofap forum. It was interesting and eye opening to see the effect of addiction and the implications in a relationship. As a single guy, after reading several threads, I think that rebooting while single is way more easier than...

    Single and Bitter

    Does anyone who's single ever feel bitter and resentful of people in a relationship? I sometimes feel this way. A friend on Facebook who's around the same age as me recently celebrated his 15th wedding anniversary and I refused to congratulate him. There are people I know who've gotten married...

    How do I stop validating my worth on relationship status?

    I just find myself comparing to other people’s(men) romantic success. It feels like I don’t stack up at all being a single person and am worried I’m going to be 45 year old bitter single man with a beer gut. I guess you can say I have ‘oneitis’. All my life I’ve been trying to better myself but...

    Hey guys, I just have to write down what's going on with my views on relationships... Fair warning, this turned out to be a long post!

    Loneliness leads to PMO

    I'm currently single and I also don't have many friends. Every time I face an urge to masturbate, a voice in my head says that it's OK because I don't have a girlfriend and I'm not going to meet one any time soon, so it's only reasonable to "release some tension". Do you experience anything...
