so I’m wondering if I should use tinder whilst rebooting or give women a miss all together until I’ve done at least 90 days, any thoughts?
I still go to " Thai friendly" and it is no problem it may even be beneficial I don't know . Perhaps its a way to scratch an itch without PMO I think it would be pretty tough to give women a miss altogether for 90 days I know I could not do it I would make a piss poor monk.
Depends on your goal and level of willpower. Since you're only working on cutting porn and masturbation, tinder, along with the usual hookups derived from it, are fine. In my own experience, i found that it wasn't really working for me. I would end up spending too much time on the app and upon seeing a girl i like, get incredibely horny...if I didn't get laid (98% of the time), I ended up relapsing on PMO. So careful.
I have mixed feelings about it, and my experiences match @Soveregeign Soul. It's good to connect with a real woman. It's bad if it transforms your addiction to sex (or more likely: addicted to swiping/online dating). Use caution.
I say give it a miss. My psyc told me that chat apps is similar in addictiveness togaming / slot / pokie machines. You invest time (money) put up a ptofile or send out a message (gamble) and sometimes you recieve a hit (hookup) can be just as addictive to PMO. Massive issue for me anyway so I say give it a miss.
The more severe your addiction necessitates the more hard mode PMO restraint. My advice is to stay clear of any sex if you can.
What about dating and seeking for a girlfriend, or flirting with them just for flirt? Ever since my libido came back, I naturally began to think about women. Not sexually, but only about girls, about impressing them. I'm not sure if I should focus on women during rehab. After all, it seems natural to me, when my libido came back to me, at first my thoughts focused only on women. It was out of my control.
