I thought I was Asexual

You're on the right track. Besides, if you do meet any lady, this will be a difficult situation to introduce to the relationship. Doesn't mean avoid them, I'm just saying it's probably not the biggest priority.

Thanks for saying, man. I'm not looking for a partner, just might be nice to feel a connection again. But you're right, focus on my journey :)

You got any progress news, Viper?

Actually, I have.
Been having intercourse since being 90 days free of PMO.

So I'm finally able to stay hard enough to penetrate. I still have work to do
but I'm satisfied for where I'm at in the reboot process. It's not over yet
as I still have some issues to work out in this journey.

When I was masturbating over porn every night/day it made me question my sexuality too. I think I got so desensitized to straight porn, I started watching shemale porn which eventually led to full on gay porn. At one point I was even considering meeting up with guys on craigslist. Since I've stopped watching I know that I'm not into any of that sort of thing and am kinda grossed out by the idea of doing anything with a guy. Porn really fucks with your brain.

I agree MeepMan, porn really does fuck with your brain.

I think I've had some progress :). Hard to tell but it seems that way.

I mentioned in an earlier post about a female friend coming to visit and us getting up to some stuff.

Well this girl and another one of my friends came to visit and they crashed at my house. Her and I went and got in the bath together, as I didn't want to wake my other friend. We didn't have penetrative sex but I felt a lot more sensation and my arousal levels were better. I was able to keep my erection when I concentrated on the sensation (I didn't fantasize at all). I also managed to reach orgasm, my first orgasm in a couple months.

The next morning we had a shower together and if anything the experience was even better. This seems much improved from a couple months back when I last tried.

Yeah, since I've stopped watching porn I have no interest in anything other than girls.

Nice one! That's awesome man! Sounds like some good progress :) I think I've got a bit of a way to go before I actually do anything with a girl, I'll need to get the confidence too :p

Hey,

It's been a while and I thought I'd post an update. I'm at my family home for the summer, it's good catching up with old pals and I'm feeling pretty positive. I've been going to the gym four times a week and that's doing wonders for my mood.

Having some morning wood and I had a wet dream last night (1st in about 1/2 months, I don't recall). Been noticing women a bit more, attracted to them and feeling a bit of a want for intimacy. I'm also having a lot of intimate dreams: sex , love etc. But when I wake up those lustful feelings quickly fade.

I mentioned to my Mother about all of this (rebooting, PIED), as she often wonders why I don't seem to pursue women at all. She didn't seem to agree with it, never having heard of any of this. She also didn't believe that the majority of men and women my age use porn frequently, and often become addicted to it. She's outdated in her knowledge I realize, but being open is probably best. She doesn't understand many of the things I do anyway :)

Thanks for reading, feel free to get in touch

Hel-loooooooo Newman!
:D


Good to hear from you. Yeah, hardly anyone knows the reality of PIED and the negative effects porn have on men.
Even health care professionals-
But at least you have that close relationship with your mother where you can have that conversation.
It looks like you are getting some gains, just hold the course. It will happen!

I masturbated last night, was very aroused for some reason. Not sure if it will affect my progress but I was keen to see if I could get an erection without visual stimuli. I didn't fantasize either.

Had a pretty good erection for the whole time and it just wouldn't go down, even when I stopped for a minute.

I'm thinking I won't do this again for a while but It's good to know my penis is working!
