So currently, I am 68 days no masturbating but recently I’ve been finding myself watching porn again but not for long maybe like 5 mins then snap out of it and watch my thoughts. It has been happening more recently after my gf has been stressed so we haven’t been sexually active for 3 weeks or so. It’s making me feel like a fraud about my 72 days streak and if that would be possible if I didn’t have a gf. And because I only struggle when I’m around her, I’ve been trying to limit my time with her but then she would convince me to come over cos she’s feeling sad or bored or whatever and then my temptation sky rockets and she just blue balls me. I have even been thinking of cheating and it’s stressing me out. We had a convo about it last week cos I kinda had a temper when she didn’t want to have sex but she is still doing the same thing. Any suggestions brothers?

Then you've already sinned, looking at a woman that ways shows you've already caused adultery in your heart. You're supposed to purify your kind and resist it as a whole. Take a break from dating and work on you and God

Understand your struggle entirely. It’s half the reason why I struggle so hard to break out of my porn consumption. I have a higher sex drive than my wife and she doesn’t owe me sex, but I still have urges that I personally want satisfied. You could talk about it with her but that conversation doesn’t usually go well. I masturbate without porn, or atleast try to. It’s a natural way to release urges but without the insane visual stimuli porn brings.

There’s nothing females find less attractive than a desperate man, I know because I’ve been there. It’s a bitter pill to swallow, but avoid the obvious bad behaviors and do something you enjoy. Do it daily, there’s no quick fix to this

Focus on yourself and what your trying to achieve. Do not watch porn. Improve yourself in any area, physically, emotionally or spiritually. When your GF sees you are growing and not upset or stressed about not having sex, the tables will turn and she will find it hard to resist you, and offer sex very openly
