The benefits of not watching porn/masturbating are decently documented I guess, but why no sex? I mean I get that your single, but if I were and wasn't masturbating I'd think that would just motivate me to go out and meet more girls to try and get laid more...surely that'd be a good thing?

Make sure to take & post a picture of your artistic creation on the canvas that is your escort's chest.

Examples?
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00224499.2015.1025123?journalCode=hjsr20 (and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_preference for context).

Essentially it can make you less motivated to better yourself for the longterm benifits that would give, since the immediate primordial "sexual" release caused by masturbation to porn tricks the brain into releaseing the same chemicals it would when you have sex with an actual partner, which of course is there to procreate. Historically you would better yourself to make yourself more appealing so you can better compete for the attentions of the opposite sex, the evolutinary urge being the driving force and the fealings of pleasure and eurphoria being the carrot on the stick. Porn with masturbation essentially gives you the carrot without all the work.

Actually I think the OP is making a mistake here. If he hasn't touched his dick in 3 months, if he hooks up with a 10/10 escort, he's going to blow his load so fast he'll be wondering if it was even worth the money. I mean there's no bragging rights either for paying a girl.

That’s what I said. Unless he’s been following trained semen retention this is going to be like playing Call of Duty on Hardcore. One touch and he’s dead.
 
Yeah I guess hookers are a pretty recent thing

NoFap is a recent thing invented by dudes who jerk it too much due to being addicted to porn. These type of dudes typically don't care about doing things to improve themselves so that they can hook up with a suitable partner. Instead they act superior because they didn't jerk off for a certain period of time, brag about how they are so much more productive, then hire an escort or continue to remain a virgin.

You can eat healthy, workout and still have a healthy sexual relationship with yourself and/or others. These things are not mutually exclusive. Indeed, There's little to no evidence that deliberately abstaining from sex and masturbation--unless you have an addiction to it--contributes to mental clarity. And no, YouTube "NO FAP MADE ME A GENIUS" videos aren't evidence. Abstinence helps with your willpower, sure, which would lead you to adopt positive habits such as eating less and engaging in physical exercise. But it seems strange to deprive yourself of one of the joys of being human, which is exploring your sexuality.

Edit: I'd also add that I think most adult males have a porn addiciton, so "exploring your sexuality" means without visual aids unless they're in the form of another human.

Porn addiction is a real thing and changing that behavior to kick the addiction is a great thing. It's also an end goal to itself - the point of not being addiction to por (or anything else) is to not be addicted to it. Acting morally superior because you broke free of an addiction is, of course, pretty silly.
 
Guys, I'm afraid I have bad news: girl cancelled on me last night. Here's her text word for word:

"Hey babe I'm not
available gonna be
available (sic) tomorrow
something came up"

I've reached out as to why and she hasn't replied back to me. I will rebook with her, because I'd be crazy not to. I have other escorts in mind. If you guys are interested, I'll post some pictures, but right now, I'm sleep deprived.

I feel like I'm playing Thread Catch Up with Mobile Suit Gooch.

Take it as a blessing in disguise. You would have fucked her for maybe a minute, blew your load, then passed the fuck out. You don't have to make this some kind of ritual or victory event for yourself. This is just my opinion, I mean do what you want, but I personally wouldn't hire a hooker. To me there's nothing more awkward than paying a girl to like you.

It's a smarter move than paying for gold boosts on dating apps just for a chance or the perception of a higher chance more accurately.

The only difference a gold boost does is:

- Instead of talking to non gold fake profiles you are now talking to gold fake profiles xD

This is the most obvious reason why this would not be possible for me.

If I don't milk the nuts they will milk themselves while I sleep. It happens to me after around 10 days. The dreams are usually awesome but waking up with cum soaked sheets is not cool.

Are you telling me this naturally stops after a number of weeks/months?
Sometimes i'm glad for the fact that i can't dream...

I don't believe in not having an intimate relationship with yourself. If your ment to shoot off regularly, you might as well do so in a controlled manner. It's just that you really have to find a balance for yourself in your current situation in life.

I do agree that porn can have negative effects on people in multiple levels and probably should only used sparingly at best.

While I don't think people should go full monk mode for the rest of their lives, but I like that nofap encourages people to atleast take a tolerance break from porn and get a different perspective.
 
Ok so to be clear the escort won’t be leaving after you nut? Because after 3 months it will be fun but won’t last long. At least with an hour you can go round 2, maybe round 3 (depending on your age).

A lot of people doing no-fap are reporting that they last longer. It's counter-intuitive to most people, but it's thought that you are damaging nerve endings and making them too sensitive by masturbating using your hands. If you have not made a serious attempt at nofap it's hard to understand, it changes you. It really makes you think when you are going through it,


"My ancestors didn't have porn, did they really feel like this most of the time before marriage?"

You don't need to stop masturbating just because you quit watching porn though. It probably makes it harder, because you're gonna be horny as fuck and even the slightest thing might send you googling something and it's downhill from there.

I rarely dream either but if I leave the nuts fully loaded then it's only a matter of time before I'm suddenly dreaming about red hair, pale skin and large lightly freckled titties.
I remember my dreams like 1-2 times a year and i never had a sex dream (and surely never had jizz on my sheets).

I guess i'm lucky.

You must be keeping the nuts milked regularly.
What's the longest you've been without creaming out a huge nut?
