Have anyone ever experienced this with your girlfriend boyfriend husband or wife?
I definitely just scared the shit out of her and probably made her question her entire reality... woops
Yeah, I have the same situation with mine. He usually gets annoyed because I have this habit of talking about absolute nothingness and death before we go to sleep. He told me I give him nightmares so I had to stop

My mother says my grandmother who grew up in the Great Depression used to really push my my mom to get her ahead and prepared. It worked out extremely well in a lot of ways, but I still see some of the traumatic effects that were negative in both my parents.
I think you might be on to something here

1 hour ago, StarStruck said:@Dwarniel thank you for the advice. My problem is a matter of impulse control. I know all the negatives of too much porn, both for the watcher and for the performers. If I feel bad about myself I use porn to treat myself to cure the moment and after that I feel even worse.
Remember you are not a bad person for struggling with a porn addiction. Most people are exposed to porn before they have any idea of what it is and what it does to you, your brain etc. I know it might be difficult, but try to be kind to yourself. I have never struggled with porn, but I did overcome an alcohol addiction and I'm finally sober. Addiction is tough, I might imagine it's even harder with something that is so easily accessible as porn. Try to be patient with your progress and keep fighting <3 I have learned that shame ultimately only makes things worse. From what I can tell society actually promotes porn use, so it might be difficult to motivate yourself as well. I found that hard when I quit drinking, most of my friends did not get it at all and actually tried to talk me out of ditching the bottle. The good old "it's all about balance!". Yeah, but actually no. If something has a negative impact on your life & relationships t's not about balance, it's about weeding it out.

Yes you absolutely can. Girls don't care about your looks, but make sure to groom yourself and take care of your hygiene.

If you are empathetic and lean towards spiral dynamics stage green - maybe the ethics can motivate you? There's a lot of abuse and trafficking in the industry. You really do not have any idea if the girls you are watching are mentally healthy, getting paid and consents to the act. Many of them are addicted to drugs or can't get out of the industry due to their financial situation. fightthenewdrug is a good resource if you want to educate yourself about the shadow aspects of porn. Also consider that every click + screentime on free websites (such as p*rnhub) is money in the company pockets. There's a lot of problematic stuff about free sites like this, for example child abuse, r*pe & trafficking. Even if you are not watching the child abuse, there's still many many videos like this on free sites, and eyeballs makes the company profit of others pain. I read this case about a video of a baby being r*ped on p*rnhub, it was up for months before the site finally deleted it. You can find more information about the ethics of it all at fightthenewdrug, they have a good website and instagram page.
...And don't beat yourself up, shaming yourself will only deepen your problem. Reaching out (like you are doing now) and being forgiving towards yourself is better. Hugs <3

I had all four removed, three of them at the same time with local anesthesia. I was home for 2 days and then went back to work. No problem. Just get them out if you don't have space for them, they cause insanely bad breath if they get inflamed regularly.... I had a friend once who refused to remove his wisdom tooth, he smelled like feces.

This video was on my recommended list, it was quite interesting to watch and hear the baby boomers experiences.

Where would you pinpoint Damien Echols on the spiral? I honestly have no clue. Sometimes I almost get turquoise vibes from him. I think he developed a lot through the hell he went through in prison. He's pretty active on YouTube for refrences on how he thinks & carry himself. He's pretty deep into magic(k) and art

Very interesting. His description of oneness/Love reminds me of Leos teachings. How beautiful is it then, when a sunset turns ugly..

This is what a 3 year bachelor degree to earn a badge, no carried Guns & on going training looks like. Of course the country is much smaller. & no civilians carry Guns either.

I don't understand how someone can argue that a sick human being in need of love & care deserve to be shot...

3 hours ago, Zanoni said:Guess i have to research about the regulations as i have plane tickets to Norway on 5th June. Had to change the date because of the Coronavirus outbreak in April. SAS sells tickets to Norway but Finnair canceled all flights until the end of June.
Yeah, research that. Please don't take my word for it, i might not be up to date about all regulations ?

1 hour ago, Zanoni said:Question for you. Is Norway allowing travelers to enter or is there any restrictions in the beginning of June?
People without residence permit are not allowed in norway as per now. I havent heard anything about the government loosening up on this restriction.. We are allowed to travel, but have to do 2 weeks of self isolation/quarantine when we get back..

Sweden has 1.65 times more density than Norway but 8 times more deaths per millionYes, but I read something about Sweden reporting deaths differently...
In Norway we only report a death as a "corona death" if the patient died FROM corona.. If someone who's corona positive dies from.. Say a heart attack, we don't report that as a corona death.. Sweden however, report every death as a corona death, if the patient is positive, no matter what the patient actually dies from.
This affect the statistics for sure. I have no idea why we report it differently

Im really curious as to how your country is handling this crisis...
I live in Norway. We locked down the entire country pretty early. What's interesting is that our neighbouhing country, Sweden, went for the total opposite strategy: They decided to keep everything open as much as possible and aim for herd immunity. What's the wisest decision is yet to be discovered. As far as I understand from what I've read, Sweden is more aligned with scientific research
Regarding my country, we managed to decrease contamination and deaths fairly quickly. We are slowly re-opening the country as we speak... But we are still speculating about this "second wave" and what it's going to mean for us
It's really interesting to watch how the different political parties act during this situation. The parties who's furthest to the left is currently fighting for cuts in politician salaries in solidarity with people who lose their jobs due to the regulations enforced by the state. (Luckily, we have a good security net in place for people who lose their jobs, they get a living wage gifted from the state when unemployed...)
So... What's the strategy/Situation in your country?
What's the different parties in your country fighting for? from left to the right..
And what are your thoughts on what's going on where you live?

Like for real though. It's not that difficult to mimic some porn star.

4 hours ago, WHO IS said:Nothing makes a woman orgasm more then a Goodlooking face and body, it's instinctual.
Ehm... No
Not in my experience anyways
My best experiences has been with men who are present. Like to be real for a second: the real female orgasm comes from being pursued. Looks has next to nothing to do with that. For real. Females are not focused on looks... thats the fallacy of the male projecting their own desires speaking

You can segregate the convo as women vs man, but in reality its less horny vs more horny.
Yea it might be some gender differences to an extent.. But in the grand scheme of things It's probably generalisations. I think environment & personality has something to say in it as well.. In relationships it all boils down to sexual compability & communication

I understand you don't want to hurt her, but the thing is... She'll be more hurt by having a boyfriend that doesn't want to be in a relationship with her. You are hurting her more by staying. Even though you're fearful, you should break up with her for her sake. Especially if she's dealing with mental health issues..

I would love to see you talk with Russell Brand (Under the skin). Duncan Trussell as well, a lot of people think he's just a goof - but he is really wise and spiritually developed. Damien Echols too, you are bringing up similar topics, but from very different perspectives. A real treat would be Jordan Petersons podcast, though I doubt that it would be of any interest for you.
