So I've read the documentation, the videos, and the websites on what the benefits of me stopping to consume porn and/or masturbating to porn all the time. And I can easily see the prospect of why one would do this, especially for normalfags who are having trouble getting it up with their normy girlfriends.

But as a guy who's in the unfuckable zone, the kind of guy every girl will never have lewd thoughts about, what's the point? My risk/reward system is already addled with constant vidya and computer shit that even stopping my porn consumption wouldn't do much. An added confidence boost wouldn't help as girls would just think I'm fucking weird if I had the confidence to hit on them. And being desperate to get laid would only result in more awkward spectacles whereas pornography is pretty much a zero risk guaranteed orgasm.

Give me one reason why a person who isn't a normalfag would want this, besides a possible boost in motivation to get things done as I have no problem with that.

Self control.

You have control over nothing else in your life, you can at least have control over your self. Try and develop into a better person, rather than just sitting at your computer always giving in to your base desires.

Quit jerking off, start getting fit, do something with your life. Who knows, maybe it'll turn you into someone that women want to know, regardless of your poor looks.

And let's face it, people can tell when you fap all the time. Not consciously, of course, but there is some sort of subtle body language that just exudes 'loser', and people (especially women) pick up heavily on it. You will find yourself acting a bit more confident and presenting better to strangers without you even realising it if you get your fapping under control.

Trust me, I'm someone in the same position as you. This shit has helped a lot. There is more to life than the dopamine rush from fapping.

Is fapping really going to give me the push I need to self actualize and do all the things I mean to do? All I'm really failing to do with myself is exercise, read more, program more, and work more at my creative pursuits.

>Who knows, maybe it'll turn you into someone that women want to know, regardless of your poor looks.

It isn't just my looks, I have a personality that turns women off. You know the kind, the guy who buries himself in information all day, is quiet, hates redundancy (it frustrates me to explain to people things they already should know/have explained to them already), plays it generally safe but also does crazy shit not in the good way and indulges endlessly in anything that makes me feel good (relates to the first thing). So I doubt I'll ever get with another girl.

So, pretty much everything.
Speaking from experience, its akin to a domino effect.

And you would be surprised at how compatible you actually are.
It's statistically unlikely, but then, so was your birth.

If you're really that ugly, and never plan on engaging in romance, then your sexuality is useless to you. Therefore, it is a waste of time.

You'll have much more fun geeking out all the time as a high-level egghead deep in some field or other of intellectual activity than you'll have cranking your dick to weird shit. Next-level eggheads just don't have the time for that shit.

Yeah you could say it's everything/most of what I try to do that I'm failing at. I'm trying, but procrastination is a helluva drug.

>And you would be surprised at how compatible you actually are.

I understand I'm actually compatible with some women out there, but compatibility has jack diddly shit to do with how people hook up with each other. It's instead just about creating a social gravitational pull to yourself so that you can meet & greet as many people as possible, while also drawing them in as close as possible so that you can "get together". I create no such pull. I stay inside, almost everyday, and when I do go out I don't socially engage others besides those I already know. I'm not interesting on any surface aspect, and I don't try to be as good looking as I can be except when at work/looking for work. (IE. I let my facial hair grow, my hair get weird, sleep irregularly). So yeah highly doubtful, unless I try and pull people towards me, which just isn't fun and drains me to no end.

>>167
This is a good argument. My sexuality is useless to me except for what my body & mind forces me to desire and attain release.

>You'll have much more fun geeking out all the time as a high-level egghead deep in some field or other of intellectual activity than you'll have cranking your dick to weird shit. Next-level eggheads just don't have the time for that shit.

I'm probably not that smart, but I could definitely get a lot more of my ideas made if I could kill my procrastination. But my fapping only ever really takes half an hour-an hour out of every couple days. I don't think not fapping will do much to relieve my inability to focus and work hard for the lengths of time I desire. Would it? I don't know.

I'm starting today though to find out.

You've got some serious self-esteem issues bro. You're not some super tragic chinese cartoon character who's cursed to be alone forever. People like that don't actually exist in real life. Go call your mother and listen to her; she'll tell you that she loves you and that you're a good guy. If you nofap, you'll probably find that you've got a sexual addiction, and as that addiction clears up your social, mental, and physical health will improve.

Not uncommon here in 8chan.

That's a bold claim, and although I'm inclined to believe you, in the scenario you were wrong wouldn't this be kind of condescending to someone who were in that hypothetical position?

>If you nofap, you'll probably find that you've got a sexual addiction, and as that addiction clears up your social, mental, and physical health will improve.

We're going to find out. Day 6 so far, no noticeable change other than I'm doing my work. Recently picked up yoga as a weekly thing.

Congratulations! Care to share your story? I love hearing the success stories of people who have gone through this and I think it would help all the doubters who may read your topic.

Not much to say really. At the moment we haven't decided if we're dating or anything. Just happy a girl like that considers me. It's too early to call it a success story I think.

seriously, you talk like someone who's never even met a person before - just theorized about how they might behave in some imagined social interaction.

all your ugliness means is that you're designated to a certain type(s) of girls.

>the ugly and awkward

>reformed whores

>the mentally ill

>etc etc

bare in mind that actively seeking girls like this is immoral, and that i'm not suggesting you should. my point is that these are they types of girls that you will fall into relationships with. people like you and them gravitate towards each other though common struggles.

i'll leave you with one last bit of advice (despite the fact that you probably won't come back to read it).

if you don't believe yourself to be worthy, how can you expect anyone else to?

Even that's horseshit. Girls don't care about looks.
