    Porn is a lie. These women wouldn’t look at you in the street. They’re doing this for money, and it’s YOUR hard earned money going to them. They want what we have. Keep your money to yourself. Don’t give it away because you’re horny. Day to day life is reality, and these pixelated women aren’t in our life. Find someone who can be.

  4. What worked for me is hitting rock bottom. I think that in order to seriously start fighting this you need to be ready to make a change and realize that the point isn't just abstaining and "playing the nofap game," it's rethinking your life and habits. It's treating this like you would treat any other addiction, like alcohol and drugs. Step by step. And because you REALLY want it.

    I quit porn, give or take, 6 years ago. What you call "cravings" are actually withdrawals. That is your brain punishing you for altering, what has been, for you, 20 years of a conditioned neurochemical reality. My advise: don't look for a way of stopping withdrawals, because that is impossible. They are inevitable. Don't try to quit easy; it is not possible. The thought I had, when quitting, was this, and it got me through: "Quitting is the most awful feeling I have ever felt. Quitting feels like dying. Quitting may kill me. I felt that every day, all day. BUT if feeling that all day, every day, for the rest of my life, is what I have to feel to quit, am feeling that every day for the rest of my life." Good news, it fades and goes away, but pain is the price you are going to pay for your freedom. If you are not willing to pay it, don't even bother.

    Someone here once said, Learn to Love Withdrawals. You pretty much have to, to get clean, but on the other side, you own you. These chains can be broken, and, I promise, once you break these chains, you sure as fuck are not putting them on again.

    Man I don’t know what to say you are 100 % right. Women are not that easy like that image that image that the porn industries try to sell. It’s very true that they wouldn’t look at the guy. Who knows what they want.

    You can do this buddy. Educate yourself about the dangers of this addiction and it’s a long process if you relapse don’t be hard on yourself.

    It’s true we have to pay the price for missing around with our brain for a long time. Thanks man for the advice it’s really helpful to hear that from someone who is not being tempted by porn anymore.

    Lifestyle changes is very very important. You can’t sit around playing with your phone or laptop and think you are going to quit. That won’t happen. There is no magical moment of that’s it I quit. We have to work on our recovery and I personally believe lifestyle changes is the very first important thing to do. Our brain associates Fapping with places and time.

    Yep. 90% of people ignore others and go about their day. Thousands of unknown men are ogling their photos. We need to find someone who loves us and only us.

    I agree with what you said. Nowadays people live in Fantasy and abandon real life because women don’t care if we are interested or serious about relationship. They will look at your race and color and social status and if you have a good job. It only takes one look from them to see if you are worth talking to or not

  13. Come on, guys. That is not the truth. Let's not depict women as superficial, status-driven and "glory-searching."
    That's just not the truth. They're human beings. And most of the time, when we get turned down, it's not because of status, but because we're not really showing and interesting sides of humanity.
