CONFESSION: I regularly go on random video chat websites searching for girls to get off with. I sit with the camera pointed at my shirt and lower face. On my screen I have two browser windows open, which I use to flick through random strangers.

It's nothing like jerking off to porn and I will never, ever watch porn again. In this game you really have to (most of the time) charm the literal panties off these girls by talking to them. Sometimes it takes a long interaction to warm up. And you definitely have to look fucking good and lift because you are on camera.

This has been highly addictive for me because of the positive reactions.

I used to feel guilty or perverted about doing it, now not so much. It's always consensual (I have NEVER exposed myself unless asked and obviously make sure anyone I interact with is 18+).

If I go on most nights I'll get a "win" with a (usually) very attractive girl (great rack/sexy ass).

The pros:

Huge ego boost.

It's a RP eye opener. I've had more than one girl do all sorts of nasty shit with pictures of their "boyfriend" hanging on the wall behind her. It's given me a mind-blowing window into how fucking sexual even seemingly "good" girls are when no one is watching. Some of the interactions are straight up insane.

It's given me a great idea of what turns girls on, dirty talk, fetishes, how they like to be treated. A lot of trial and error but it all comes down to domination.

It motivates me like hell to get my ass in the gym for the compliments. I try and take very good care of myself, skin/face/hair (I show my face so I try and look as good as possible).

It keeps me motivated to eat right, bulk up etc...

The issues:

I'm still a total virgin, fuck.

It has taken a lot of my time - I'm not sure whether to call it a hobby or an addiction at this point - I guess most people probably spend more time watching Netflix.

It's very likely that doing this is sapping my motivation to meet girls IRL. I've even had the chance to meet girls from the chat sites but never pursue, because my current living circumstances leave me stuck. I fear that as long as I have easy access to these girls my motivation to move out of this "comfort zone" is sapped and I won't be able to do it.

But then if I start meeting up with girls, I'll just fall into another comfort zone, hitting up Tinder or whatever.

My question: I wanted to get perspective from the "Ask TRP" community on where this "hobby" falls in terms of counter-productiveness to "Red Pill" success.
