Don't wack it for two weeks and you'll NEED to talk to women.

I read somewhere that not faping for sometime can help. Constant faping/porn can trick your mind into thinking you've already played the game and scored. Either that or depression can also cause the lack of drive.

I'm gunna assume you watch porn based off nothing more than you are a 20yr single male living in a 1st word country. I highly recommend trying to not. Ultimately if you remove it completely, you may find not only your desire/attraction/connection to real life females skyrocket, but I personally experienced drastically increased levels of motivation in pretty much all facets of life. Maybe it was because once I desired real life women I had a reason to build a life that would attract them. Working out felt like it had a purpose, getting a good job felt worth it.
Let me also clarify that I don't think I had a porn addiction. I'd use it to masturbate 2-4 times/week. Nothing crazy. I didn't realize that was enough to take my drive away until I actually abstained for a few months. My whole world opened up. I'll never go back.
Simply put, quitting porn made everything real in my life suddenly have a purpose.

Are you even sure you are attracted to women in s sexual way? Plenty of other sexual identities out there you could read up on. Don't feel obligated to date because it's what your friends are doing.

Yes I’m attracted to women. I know that because I’ve had crushes on many different girls throughout my life. I had my first celebrity crush when I was 5.
I also had a huge crush on a girl in high school but failed miserably. I’ve been rejected all my life for various reasons. If I wasn’t attracted to women I don’t think I would’ve ever liked her or any of them.

Do you want a girlfriend or do you want to fool around?
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Honestly I’d want a girlfriend, but I think that’s because I’ve never had one and I missed out on it during my teenage years.
I think I’d feel unfulfilled if I just “fooled around”. What’s the end game with that?

get your testosterone checked
Is this a specific test or is it done with a blood test? I had my blood tested earlier this year and all my test came back healthy.

It could be a diet thing, do you consume a lot of soy? Processed foods? Might be worth getting your testosterone levels checked.

Do processed foods really do that much harm?

Yes, they are terrible for your health. Not just because of altering hormones like testosterone but they are also potentially cancerous, can lead to heart disease, strokes, diabetes, dementia and other neurological problems.

Might be a good option to just get your feet wet so your not so nervous and you can stop FOMO-ing. Sounds like you're being both really picky and a little desperate. You can't have it both ways. I suggest you hit up that girl you left on read and see if you can salvage it, or start casting that net of online dating, because no girl is going to just walk into your apartment and ask to meet your parents.
I’ve tried hitting up different girls that leave me on read but I end up just being their orbiter. She’ll talk to me for a day and then I wont hear from her again for a month.
Another girl just doesn’t even respond for days and by the time I read her message I don’t even know what to say because who leaves a message unopened for 2 weeks.
Can you move cities?
Sadly not man. I’m a 20 year old college student, I don’t have nearly enough money or a way to earn enough income to live on my own. Maybe I’d be able to last a couple months but that’s it. I’m not gonna go into debt just to move in the middle of a pandemic.
Hopefully I either get to go away to college for my last year (depending on the pandemic) or I just move out once I complete my degree.
