I’m in nofap for more than 35 days (No sex, \, no porn) more than 35 days and Today I had sex with some hooker in Colombia (I’m a tourist here). I don’t consider it to relapse because I had a normal sex. Anyway, the benefits are: I didn’t gain any superpowers/amazing charisma whatever. However: […]
