I think my self confidence as a youth was a factor.  I was very shy, and had a hard time talking to people in general.

I view women more as objects than people, honestly.  I have had relationships, but have cheated each and every time.  My relationships are generally not great, I used to have major jealously issues, but that has stopped as of late.  

I used to have problems with jealousy too. It stemmed from my belief that everyone was better than me. So they could come along and take her from me any time they desired.
I also went through addictions trying to blot out this hideous self-hatred. But of course this just creates a huge aversion in your mind, for your mind (or its contents). In the end things only started to improve when I began to face my fears.

It's amazing how quickly fears disappear when you look at them directly.

I guess it's easier for you to have meaningless sexual encounters than go through the hard work of having a proper relationship and all the fear that entails?
But you're giving up so much to your fear :/




Have you thought about getting some help to learn how to deal with stuff?

I've read recently that some scientists discovered people who watch a lot of porn have smaller brains than others, because the part responsible for motivation doesn't develop. You can look it up online.
What's your opinion?

I am pretty intelligent, I work in a field where I have to be pretty bright.  My opinion is that its not a smaller brain capacity, but it may be that the person who watches a lot of porn is nonstop thinking about porn, as opposed to other things.

Is there a huge difference in quality between masturbation vs sex? Does sex satisfy your addiction more than just masturbation?

Do you need the constant flow of new women to prove something to yourself?

I think deep down, yes. I feel like crap afterwards usually.  But it's almost like a drug.


What is it you're trying to prove to yourself?

I really do not know.  I wish I did.

I have an awesome family, but I cannot seem to control this part of my life. 

You mentioned earlier that as a youth, you had very low confidence. I wonder how you thought about yourself.

Then you discovered sex and it made you feel good about yourself. I'd imagine that could be very addicting. Though ultimately futile and destructive.

How do you view women in general? Have you ever had a meaningful relationship with one?

Do you have thin (skinny) wrists and forearms ? Like at the wrists, basically all bone so there's no adding mass.

Strangely, yes

Do you think it's genetic. Is it a big turn off for women any experience like that. Have you tried to bulk them with exercises.
Lastly, is it embarrassing to have arms like that, like are you ashamed of walking in tea s.

I am not really sure how this is related.  I will answer this, but after this question, if you have no serious questions related the topic, please refrain from asking.

Is it genetic, yes, everyone in my family is slim.  Working out does not bulk me up.  It is not embarrassing, and generally women find me attractive, or they lie to me.  However, I have never had a problem getting the ladies.

That age group was very turbulent for me too (in other ways). Things get better after 40 for many people as their minds settle down.

Great topic and thanks for your honesty. I may be back later Smiley

Thank you, look forward to it.

Do you watch porn? If yes, your fav categories? Cheesy

Almost nonstop unless working.  Gangbang, and interracial mostly.  Must have a facial in it for me to watch it generally, preferably more than one.

Yes any addiction will make you feel like crap because they don't really give you what you need and you often feel shame at the depths you've gone to in pursuit of an illusion.

What age group are you in?

Hvae you seen the movie Don Jon? It has a very good message. (not that a movie can change your life or anything)

I have not seen that movie, but I do have it downloaded. I'll watch it this week.

My age range is 25-35
