[@Cavegeckosol]

The way I see it, the goal isn't to not fap, it's to get to a point in life where you don't feel that you need to do it all the time to be happy. Just like responsible adults can have some beer without being an alcoholic, someone can have sex or fap without their life falling apart. The trick and things girls find attractive is the ability to responsibly find that balance. It's unfortunate that nofap has been simplified to numbers and streaks when truly tempered adults shouldn't need to care about that.

[@sarareanna]

I’m a 27-year-old female who has dated a guy for about three years and lived with him who had a massive porn addiction. I know it can be devastating to men who are feeling depressed and low energy and like they aren’t doing anything good with their lives and don’t try to do anything to change it. This video was helpful to me in many ways. Someone has to be super strong mentally to give up porn. Or they may need help and support in the rough times when they feel like relapsing. Most people will keep it so private that they hide it from their partners. I struggled with self worth in that relationship. Mostly because I had a higher sex drive and wanted to have it multiple times a day, at least once a day. I prioritized emotional bonding in my relationship, but he did not. So what I’m getting at is, a lot of women out there feel like they aren’t enough when men watch porn, especially behind their backs, especially when they are in the next room, wanting and craving that emotional and physical connection that they won’t get that day. It is detrimental for long-term relationships. I would say there are a handful of women (who I have been friends with) who decide to cut men off to sex when they make them angry... I say personally to them that with research, men trust you and open up to you more when you are in your feminine energy. Maybe that’s off point and a story for another day. It’s very admirable for a man to be a MAN and learn how to be mentally aware that he can be better FOR HIMSELF. Everyone should focus on what’s best for themselves first. It’s so cliché, but it’s true: an empty cup cannot fill another. Everyone has the responsibility to be their best self. That is the confidence and security you need. A partner will follow, because you will find them in the RIGHT places. Take it easy if you mess up. It’s very attractive to meet someone who wants the same thing you want. Until then, you might meet women who have their own battles and problems within themselves to manipulate men or just be in it for their own benefit at the time until they get bored. This can go for men too. I think this idea is almost surface-level but very important.

A couple things I want to clear up that might cause confusion: 1. I plan to never watch porn again. Quitting these things has changed my life. 2. I feel like I don't have a lot of information (or rather not enough information) to talk about MGTOW as i did. Ill have to do more research. But I still don't think men should separate themselves from women completely. I at least agree that marriage is not in men's favor.

[@tooth2163]

MGTOW isn't about giving up on women at all and can't be used in the same category as incels. Most men who go their own way have no problem with women, rather they choose to live their own way without being ruined by women. Just because society is changing doesn't mean it's a good thing and that we must just accept it. Just my 10 cents worth...

[@jeanerasmus7]

As someone who has been practicing this retention lifestyle for three years and with a lot of relapses here and there, I realized that it really isn't about how long you've been retaining but how mentally in control you are each time you "relapse". Because you are absolutely correct, releasing your seed without it feeling forced or taking control over you mentally isn't exactly a relapse, it's just a simple release. BUT, to anyone who's just starting, the first 30+ days is crucial because you gotta build a good habit out of it. Once the positive habits have been ingrained in your personality, these "relapses" aren't gonna shake you down believe me.

Number one thing that has helped me with nofap and retention has been going Christian. When you accept the fact that God is real and that he doesn’t want you to fap it’s so helpful to get through those tough times when you’re rationalizing why you can/should fap/release. When you’re doing it as part of a spiritual practice it takes on a different meaning.

Thank you for being honest about this retention thing. There are hundreds of channels on YT that make it sound like its some kind of a weird cult practice.

Maybe there are other benefits like increase in T levels and such but who's gonna find out? They don't really do experiments on this lol.

So when Cole was saying "relapse" he did not really mean it as a relapse. Sex and masturbation are two different things. Although both do similar things in your brain, sex can be more meaningful because it is with another person. It builds a cooperative mindset as well as connection with another human. Masturbation just gives you the high with none of the natural connection that our bodies are designed to experience in tandem with those emotions, hormones, and chemicals.

If you nut because you had sex with someone, that's not cheating against NoFap. The whole point of NoFap is to condition and help your body and mindset for a consistently rewarding physical relationship with people. NoFap prepared you for that moment, and it sounds like you nailed it.

[@garrettwilson2626]

I did SR for 3 weeks. The last week i was literally asking myself "What is happening to me?", because i felt my aura grow substantially. My confidence, energy, vibe, all of it got a huge boost. Interactions with my coworkers felt WAY more natural (especially my female coworkers). I truly felt as if i was the bright light in the room. Like everybody was drawn to me. I felt like God. Literally. Unfortunately, i relapsed 3 times over the last few days. I still felt good, confident, energized, but the interactions with my coworkers felt dry. Almost like i was a stranger to them. I dont necessarily feel "tired" or drained, i actually feel more motivated to keep going with SR because i noticed the effects kick in during that last week.

[@jamesgorden9869]

I relapsed after a week, But I'm starting again, I'm not giving up.

[@Redrumhamm]

After just now making the painful realization that ive become an incel or mgtow i definitely want to change. My main thing that makes it difficult for me to pursue a woman is literally me not trying lol. I guess my past failed attempts is what made me fall into those mindsets and stop trying.

[@Aaron-fb6mb]

The realization alone is great. I almost started slipping down that path after getting played and used for attention for months 😂 also tinder. But that mindset only makes you avoid accountability and destroys self esteem. There's quality girls out there. Hard to find, especially if you're also introverted, but they're out there. Your past is not your future

Having sex isn’t a relapse of NoFap, it’s what men should be doing rather than fapping in the first place👍🏼

[@POVskimboarding]

THIS IS ON-POINT. I would recommend though that men partake in CONSISTENT streaks. Get your average streak to be around 12 days and you will see incremental growth in different areas of your life.

[@Raxus001]

Ignorant incel here. Had no idea I was one of those. Called me out. Guess I gotta make some changes. Definitely will be a struggle. Where to start 🤔

[@ColeHastings]

Its fine if you're not having sex, but its just the dudes who start to demonize women and think all women are the same that I don't agree with. I do think in order to develop yourself fully as a man, you must learn how to attract and communicate with women. So if thats something you're struggling with, think of it as a fun new challenge to tackle. No matter what you look like or your social status, I guarantee there's women out there that think you're attractive

[@Digital_PeterGriffin]

Most who complain about no science backing up SR just don’t have the willpower to adopt the habit and want to have to reason to not do it so they don’t feel bad. What’s the problem with something like this having little study done on it yet? Try it and it helps it helps, it can’t possibly hurt you

[@Jake-jk6qz]

Ha when Cole pulled out the laptop I was ready to see some pleasure videos! But for real I totally agree, retention really improves quality of life. I watched the 90 days of retention video a few weeks ago and I was happy to hear I was not alone in this conclusion. I have tried retention before and I have seen much benefit in the energy and confidence I have on a daily bases. That's why this channel gave me the idea to do it as a new years resolution this year. So far its going great and I am more productive than ever! Cole, I really appreciate the honesty in this channel in describing what you've been through to better yourself as a man and a human being. I think that's what makes this channel stand out. Keep making videos like these and I think you'll do very well. Thanks for the advice and new found confidence!

Honestly, I was on no-fap for almost 2 months, I was very motivated to hit the 30 day mark because everyone was saying that you star noticing the change, but I didn't feel any different, then day 31 came, and day 32 until day 45, I was so disappointed that I just gave up, now I try to do it with good spaces in between and I never watch porn, and it's been good, I'm starting to get a good sleep schedule, and exercising more.
