    Hi there,

    I'm not at nearly as much days as some of you out there. But I believe this time around I will succied for good, since I got valid reasons to change for good. As to my question for you, I've been wondering about dating. I have a really cute collegue which I'd like to make my girlfriend, I'm getting the signals that's she's into me too. My question, how does one know to be ready for a healthy relationship including sex? I've dealt with ED in the past, after a week nofap already into flatline and now I get morning wood at times. Not to say I try to rush this thing, I'm just curious what signals to look for or what your guys' experience is. I don't want to do this too soon because I don't want to screw up a chance to be with someone you may end up with for life because the sex is horrible which gives her the wrong signals. Having said that I'd like to pursue my love for this collegue as she might be a real catch.

    Check the video out, dude
    There might be answers to your questions
     
  3. If she is a good girl for you she will not mind your dick is not hard in case its not hard, because you will be able to explain to her what is going on and she will understand and wait for you. Good sign is that your dick will get hard when you kissing her or something like that. If you get no reaction, than your reaction in a bed might be bad as well. I had reactions to kissing, but in bed it was disaster for 3 times in a row :) Did not chang shit about anything, we will still meet, we will still go to bed, and we will still try something and its gonna be nice experience as always, and one day it will happen, or maybe not.. Who cares :) dude in vid is right, be careful about attachments (falling in "love") .. I feel with my girl it will get better, stilll getting used to her and I feel progress, its called rewiring... its just another part you need to go thru, 1st de-wire - stop PMO, than re-wire - start having normal sex. For me, both parts are hard. You cant skip any part tho... I started sleeping with her after 50 days no PMO cca...
     
  4. you're ready when you're ready. During the nofap process it takes time depending on your addiction to get past the ED. For me I started using dick enhancer pills in the meantime and they have done wonders for me. I'm on day 66 and I haven't had to use the pill the last time I had sex. So try it out, and if it doesn't work obtain the pills cause at least that way you will be easing you way back into sex and not watching porn is that much easier.

    @Gewinner98 The video was kinda long but I got your point. I do relate to this because PMO for me at least is something that evolved early out of loneliness because of bullying. There is a foundation problem that I saw after starting nofap. Which for me was the need for approval and this is something I'm actively working on, because if I don't I'll forever fail in PMO and life. As for the video this may be exactly what I need to do, take it really easy and let things flow naturally or not as the guy says. I found it interesting the part where he said something like: "you won't find the girl you really end up with by just clinging on the first thing that catches your eye. You gotta have a wide view so you won't get hurt too bad and end up at this never ending negative spiral." @Nish Balasubramaniam I'm kinda scared for those sort of pills, what if I get addicted or anything? You did went into the part that I was most curious about which is, leaving the psychological thing out of the equation, actually having sex again after PMO induced ED. When did you start having sex after starting nofap, you already had a relationship?

  6. It's honestly, I'm ready for sex but I haven't found my girlfriend so right now I'm living life.
     
  7. you can't get addicted to taking ED pills, but if you want a hard enough boner for sex that might your only best bet. I was already in relationship when I started PMO and we have had sex more times during my PMO journey in 67 days then we did in 2 years of knowing each other. I do take the pills but I have had sex without taking the pills either.

    @green lion eating the sun I've struck gold now, found Coach Corey Wayne on youtube and am reading his book. He explains so much of the stuff that used to be "luck" and "meant to be" into science which as an engineer is easy to grasp and learn. If you look hard enough there are free ebook/pdfs out there but I'm not gonna promote piracy here ;)
     
  10. thanks but i'm alright :) getting rid of my p and s addiction helped me to regain self control and self respect

    True.

    It should be both partners loving each other, not just one loving the other

    Female opinion you are ready when you have successfully completed at least a 90 day hard reboot, you no longer watch porn and most importantly when you are ready to disclose your history with ED and pmo addiction prior to being intimate with your partner.

    We do mind as women we do mind when a guy has ED. We do want healthy sex which includes a man that’s able to perform in bed. It will have a huge impact on us as women and on the relationship.

    I’m sorry did what I say upset you because you know it’s true? If you don’t think I speak for most women then do yourself a favor and pop over to the significant others page and read how overjoyed women are to date pmo addicts with PIED. I would like to specifically refer you to the question asked by me if those married to PMO addicts would do it all over again and with the exception of one woman it was a resounding no! And these are women who have been in the trenches so they know.

    If you think you can find 50% of women who want to date a man that can’t perform in bed because he chooses to watch porn and mo instead of being with her then go right ahead I wish you the best of luck in that endeavor. Make sure you are totally honest about your addiction so she can make the decision knowing everything.

    And I was not in anyway direspectful in my answer so I would appreciate you not referring to me as “woman.” If you know I’m wrong then what I have to say does not effect you but it may help others. My answer was very detailed and took into consideration the entire question so I’m not sure what you are saying in that I only addressed part of it?

  20. From what I've read, there are three physical signs that you are past PMO addiction:

    1. You get hard morning wood most mornings.
    2. You get an erection from physical contact with your partner (hugging, kissing etc.)
    3. You can masturbate to orgasm while fully hard without looking at any images or thinking about porn.

    With regard to becoming attached, I've heard a good tip that if you don't want to become attached while dating then have a rule of no dinner dates, and no sleep overs.
