I'm 25 year old virgin and I'm getting fed up, apart me wants to go back to porn. I've been off it since February 2014 and not long ago I got carried away reading manga, and ended up indulging myself into the triggers. Not sex, but more like romance, which seems to be a trigger and the odd erotic stuff but generally rare and now my libido has gone down again. I'm not sure what the triggers have done and if that had anything to do with it. I just want to give up to be honest, I often get upset when I see other people in relationships, I always feel like the odd one out, not to mention I'm not getting younger. I really hate this, sometimes I don't even want to bother. Can someone explain to me what has happened, did the triggers put me back a little and how am I suppose to stay motivated like this?.

Hey man! Honestly, whatever triggers you indulged in probably haven't set you back that much. We all sometimes question the process, and it's important to remember who you were before rebooting, why you chose to reboot, and what you want from it.
To me, it sounds like you are doing fantastic. If you've ever read the "success story" sections on yourbrainonporn.com, you'll see that most of the people who succeeded in quitting porn and changing their lives relapsed...sometimes even a few times. For the vast majority of us, it's a component of rebooting, and the best rebooters learn from it and keep going.
I think you are on the right path, friend. You have been doing something right to get this far.
