Why does blowing a ton of money on porn seem much worse than blowing it on anything else?

    So when I say porn I also mean sites like cam sites, onlyfans etc.

    But something I have noticed is if I ended up spending money on sites like this, I actually later feel really quite depressed about it. Particularly if I have been stupid and spent quite a bit of money.

    But the thing is if I blew money out partying, on alcohol, cocaine, or just simply wasting money while intoxicated. Why does this not make me anywhere near as depressed or feel any where near as stupid as spending money on wanking content? Even if I lost money gambling, I still think I would feel less depressed about this than wasting money on wanking content.

    The thing is you're wasting the money all the same, the money is being wasted on stupid things you don't need, that aren't good for you. But again blowing money on wanking content seems to make me feel way worse afterwards than blowing it on any of those other things.

    It makes me feel much more stupid blowing it on wanking content compared to those other things, much more pathetic blowing it on wanking content compared to those other things.

    It depends on how you value things, so it means porn/camsites for you devaluated more then cocaine or alcohol . It's that simple
    It's waist of time to think what is worst cocaine , camgirls, porn, alcohol . All those things is poison for you body and mind, there is no genuine value in it, so that's why for me it's not on my option list at all.

    Yeah I think a big part of it is I find spending money on porn much more pathetic than those other things I mentioned.

    As I think is you just get depressed with two things one guilt on spending money for un useful stuff and the guilt which we get after we ejaculate . So try to avoid both.

  5. I know when I spent money on cam sites in the past aftewards I felt like it was a big waste of money because i would tell myself, "there's so much free porn out there why am I paying for it." I think that is the reason why I felt worse spending money on porn then anything else because the free stuff would have gotten me to the same point as paying for it.

    Because you are wasting it, towards something that drains you.
