I'm not trying to stop anyone from this pursuit if they are perfectly happy with it. I'm not interested in arguing or fighting people's wishes. I'm trying to connect specifically with people who have decided for their own reasons that they want to stop, so that I can learn from them what kind of...

Well thank you very much for everyone's honesty! What I'm hearing is that there could be some interest in a high-quality online course that offers practical tools, free of judgmental and shaming language, for anyone who is seeking help in their decision to quit. There is understandably some...

sdw - True, I think I went about trying to get more clarification in the wrong way. But thank you for elaborating despite my lack of grace. clu - Thank you for your constructive thoughts. I'm totally in agreement about the harms of pseudo-scientific therapies. I can see that I don't have every...

It does seem to be an issue for some. Some people would call it an addiction, but I think that just comes down to how you define addiction. At any rate, there are plenty of people out there who make the decision to stop (for whatever reason) but they come back, then try again, and come back...

I'm pleased that you think the idea - generally speaking - has some merit. I was intending only to get some clarification on what sdw said; I wasn't sure if he was implying a dissatisfaction with the lifestyle or if I was reading into it, so that was the intent of the question. But you're...

I definitely don't mind - I'm the one who's intruding here ;) I like your thoughts.

Thanks! And I appreciate the insight :)

Yeah pretty much :cool: But I didn't say I had no experience of any kind or that I have nothing to offer. You're right that I'm in no position to give out advice. And I don't intend to. I plan to offer practical tools based on research-supported behavioural change strategies (you don't have to...

I'm glad you responded. Thank you. I really wish you all the best in both A and B (and until then).

Thanks sdw. So it sounds like you're seeing all interactions with ladies as a fantasy that you have to pay for, and therefore what's the point trying to quit pooning when it's the cheaper of the two options. But in a perfect world, if you had a relationship that was fully mutual, would you take...

If you had 20 minutes with someone who could help you quit pooning, what would you ask them? If you're thinking: Who the hell is asking? I'm not a psychologist or a researcher - I just had an idea to create an online course for guys who want to quit. I get the feeling there are guys out there...
