Damn bro that is a great insight! It hits the nail on the head accurately. I have been thinking I have to work so hard and everything is a result of my hard work instead of accepting that hey, maybe I have natural ability sometimes or maybe things can happen without trying so hard.
A good bit happened the last few days. 1) The bad I fantasized about the fetish. 2) The good, I met an amazing girl we had this great connection and we hooked up.
3) The bad, something must of gone wrong and now she basically told me we wouldn't see each other again and now is ignoring me and I am a bit heart broken
lol. Such is life I guess....
1) The bad- I fantasized about fetish stuff, two nights ago and yesterday morning. For me that is a clock reset.
ANY fantasizing about sex in my bed is bad, I have now found if I fantasize about sex in bed, imagine a girl is there etc. eventually I end up fantasizing about the fetish stuff... (Which I consider a lapse). Again the positive is still no porn or masturbation so I am progressing. But now moving forward I am 100% no more of that shit at all. No fantasy addiction. Be massively careful about fantasizing about girls in bed really, just cut it out.
My fantasy REALLY affects my erection quality and recovery. I want my damn dick to work and all that good stuff. The way to do it is be totally clean, not to prove anything not to have a perfect reboot but because that is what gets the results I want, being recovered having a working dick and getting the
2) I have been letting go of a lot. I had all these hobbies I was treating like jobs. I thought I had to do so much, I was actually neglecting my career, had no space for dating and was getting messy. I have been giving myself much less daily requirements. On Tuesday I did not work until evening and I realized "hey, I actually don't HAVE to do anything" so I rested (still had a cold) wrote a bit, just sat around thinking. I felt tight and was like "I wish I could go to yoga class" then I was like "HEY! I can just go do yoga myself in the park.
I go to the park do a bit of yoga, it felt good. Walking back I notice behind me this very attractive girl. (Previously I had been putting so much effort into learning to be good with women, I read an article that said basically guys think it's hard to meet girls and overcomplicate it and then it becomes hard). Anyway, this girl was very attractive, looked un attainable. I thought whatever I'll give it a go. I just said some random thing about a bird that flew by. She stopped and we talked. She was going to go for a walk. I said let's walk together.
We did, then we decided to go for a swim, it was great. We had a ton in common I was pretty amazed by her and was thinking like "omg this is the girl I've been looking for".
We spent a few hours together it felt like a whole day. I lent her a book, we decided to see each other at night after work.
We saw each other, we walked talked connected. I took her to DIFFERENT rocks this time (at the beach) and the tide was lower. So we kissed and held each other (no tidal wave!) and we kept telling each other how much we liked each other and how amazing this was and I was telling her how beautiful she was..... Unfourtunately honestly I did not feel as aroused or present as I'd like....
Brought her home. We were in bed kissing, I was kissing her all over. Now FUCK PORN and FANTASY. The fantasy affects my erection almost as much as porn.... for real. That stuff is the devil. My erection quality was pretty shitty. Coming and going.
Then turns out she is a virgin..... We tried several times and talked about it a lot (mistake). She would get nervous each time we tried and eventually I felt a bit of a "shift" like the connection wasn't the same.
In the morning..... she was really sweet but then I went to take off her shorts and she said she should go. As she left she said "if I don't see you, good luck with everything" and gave me a peck. (Basically telling me I'd never see her again). I could tell right away she never wanted to see me again. Now she's ignored me and has my awesome book lol.
Oh well, I feel better having written about it. I felt like this girl was soo amazing but writing about it, it seems so much less significant and man... it was only one day we spent together! If it could flip that fast it couldn't be THAT special. She was on vacation here anyway. I think I was a bit needy and felt like if we had sex for her first time we'd have this great connection and all that good stuff.
So I spoke to some friends who are great with women and here's what I gathered.
1) I made things a big deal. - Talking about her being a virgin over and over. Regardless of what she says. Makes her uncomfortable.
2) When a girl is a virgin, you basically ask "want to have sex?" she normally says no or " not this time" and you just go to sleep. She'll wake you if she wants to do anything. Basically I should have just slowed down more, been more laid back and finally...
3) This may be super important! My erections kind of sucked and came and went, even when not having sex.... This may have been a huge deal (as we all know.....) I did not mention this point to my friends..... So the lesson there is NO FANTASY. I am gonna aim to choose to make this a positive and use it as motivation to totally cut out all fantasy and imagining girls etc. when I do that I get morning wood all the time. When I've done that and been with a girl after about two weeks, my dick has worked. I realize for me, accuracy beats duration..... totally cutting out everything porn sex fantasy etc. has my dick working. A slight drip, like a little fantasy etc. even if done for months and my dick doesn't work too well. Even when I had a girlfriend and was rewired when I fantasized about fetishes my erections were pretty bad the next few days. Oh well... maybe this event is the motivation I needed.
POSSIBLE TRIGGER BELOW (I mention an act we did, not in detail).
She did give me a blowjob, it took forever to cum and I didn't feel too too much. But, I can view that as a win. This girl was really attractive by any guys standards... thats pretty cool this happened. AND my mind kept trying to jump to weird fetish thoughts and wanted me to ask her to engage in crazy fetish crap but I pushed all the thoughts out and was just present. In my experience I need to be with a girl/ have sex a few times and before the thoughts go away. Okay, I am ALL IN on this reboot. I want this dick working, I want to enjoy this times with these girls. I want to have this thing DONE and handled.
