Hello everyone, I am from India, and I have been on NoFap since November 2019. There have been many ups and downs in this journey. Currently, I am on 54 days.
I need advice about something. Some days ago, I got triggered because of Tinder, which I had downloaded for emotional support and to make some female friends—all those old scenes of those videos started flashing before my eyes. Today, unfortunately, I watched that shitty “P” for close to 3 hours, but didn’t do MO. Does this count as a relapse? Please help me, guys and girls.
Relapsed
I’d consider it a relapse. 3 hours is a lot of time spent on it, but I’m suprised you didn’t mo. If you have the strength to do that you should have the strength to quit man, I believe in you. Keep pushing bro ![]()
Also I feel as though it’s important to say that even though this is a relapse, you haven’t lost all progress. If you were to look at a calendar of relapses this year and see how many days you didn’t, the progress would be huge. So even though that counter may say 0 now, your progress is not 0, so don’t let this discourage you my guy.
It is a relapse bruh
Don’t worry
Buckle up and come back stronger
Thank you so much, friends. The counter is reset to 0. And thanks for the compliment also. Honestly, I have made these 54 days 100% clean, without even a second of “P”, except for some erotic dreams and flashbacks of all videos. But the willpower helped me a lot.
What should I do now to prevent an actual relapse of all PMO?
Tell me something
Why do you need tinder to make female friends?
Do you study in Co-Ed college or school ?
Whatever you were doing before man. It doesn’t have to be different now, one relapse doesn’t have to be enough to set you all the way back to where you were. Keep focusing on your goals, have a purpose.
Yes, I study in a co-ed college, but I don’t why I went there.
I can and will do that without any doubt, but because the mind is again filled with that shit, I fear I will be getting urges again. Please guide me all of you
So yeah
Make female friends ![]()
Talk with them
Have emotional connections with them
Don’t get into these online dating apps
I would not recommend them for a person who is trying to overcome from PMO addiction
It would only make things worse
Yes bro, thank you so much for the guidance

Of course you’ll get urges. Truth is we’ll always get urges, we’re guys, but we learn how to get better at dealing with them. I don’t know your situation or strategy, but you’ve seemed to be able to deal with urges for the past almost 3 months, use the same strategy, whatever it was. It may not work as well as it was before your relapse, the urges may be stronger, but you’ve been here before, you CAN and WILL beat those urges. Stay focused on other things.
Thank you so much bro ![]()
Btw, how’s everything going with you all?
I slip often in Nofap
Because I am not perfect
I make lots of mistakes
But I never Give up
I know the path is more significant than the destination
I wish I could say well. Truthfully I’m struggling to even go a day. Boredom is really a killer for me, but it’s not like I don’t have things to do, I’m just not doing them and letting myself become bored. Gotta do better.
Don’t worry bro, I guess you just need motivation to do those things. Focus on your goals for which you have to do those things and keep yourself busy whichever way possible. You got this man

We don’t judge we listen but Tinder is not the right place for emotional support my brother ![]()
Hahaha I was thinking that. Tinder isn’t really the place to go to make friends either. Deep down I feel like you know why you went there, but who knows maybe you are innocent in this @Thethanos1234 . Regardless just uninstall the app and keep going. You got it man
