Is fantasy-induced pre-cum a relapse?

    During a long streak on NoFap my libido may have been restored because sexual thoughts would have previously passed my mind, but today I somehow fantasized about a girl and I didn't edge to porn or anything, just had those lustful trances and managed to pre-cum a bit whilst having strong erections...do you think this is worth a relapse? It is still semen retention as long as you didn't M right?

    Considering it's normal to have sexual thoughts and it's not like you can control your pre-cum, I'd say no. Not a relapse.

    It's not a relapse. But I'd discourage you from spending extended periods of time in mental fantasy. There's nothing wrong with noticing attractive women ... but if you start letting your mind run wild for an hour+, you're inevitably going to relapse.

    Semen retention has no bearing on recovery. If you have a wet dream, for instance, you've lost your semen, but you're still on NoFap and you don't need to reset your counter. The issue is about your own choices and intentionality.

    I'd precum too sometimes but as long as it's not a full-on orgasm it can't be counted as a relapse.

    OMG I experience that hands-free orgasm on my last relapse.

    Thanks for the feedback people. You all are right, nothing has changed...only difference being is that I've learnt something from this and that is to transmute all this pent up energy accumulated since the start of my NoFap journey. Which will help to cut my risk of relapsing as my mind will be busy won't wander into that trap. If the "horny" time does come up again like it did today though, do any of you know some quick methods to get out of it? I just went for a run earlier and it helped.

    Yeah, hit the panic button in the top right corner and click "Emergency." Do that as many times as you need to until you feel like you've got yourself under control.
