    One of my biggest challenges is abstinence - probably for most of us. Flirting and dating opportunities present themselves so what do we do? Should I not engage in any of it for at least 90 days? How do you avoid people for that long?
    Im finding even some basic flirting and giving a phone number is leading to so much triggering and relapse stuff.

    I find I'm happiest with flat line, and which I could be there more often or heck, maybe all the time. Curious to hear from people on the asexual spectrum or have had luck with this.
    Thanks!

    Lol sounds like youre humble bragging that it's so difficult for you not to get action.

    Either suffer, sacrifice, and suck it up if you want to try nofap, or move on.

    Are you practicing abstinence? You can make your own goals. If you find someone worthwhile to hang out with, why not?

    True.

    For alot of people the entire goal of NoFap is to only ejaculate with a partner.
    Personally I haven't had an orgasm in close to a month.
    (I use desensitizing condoms with my spouse to avoid finishing)

    While I don't watch a lot of porn, I do read blogs on various Mistresses who are into femdom. From what I can gather, chastity is a huge part of BDSM, apart from cages which are a bit extreme, it is essentially the same as NoFap. At least the same principle.
