I have a girlfriend, and we’re very happy. I am quitting because I want to be a good partner to her. I haven’t watched porn in over 2 days, but I recently masturbated without it, and in a super different way than before. Did I relapse? Or is this different since I didn’t consume any porn? My feelings tell me that it’s sort of justified and okay because I didn’t have any regrets afterwards, it was natural and it felt different as I didn’t watch porn. Any opinions?

i agree w josh. i recently yanked without porn but i had blue balls and felt like i needed a release after 2.5 weeks of freedom. i recommend waiting and forcing yourself to get into the habit of doing something else when u feel the urge

It’s a step in the right direction but i would personally take it as a relapse. We should be able to have self control to not do it at all..
