How are you coping without punting?

Hello!

How are you coping without punting? I started punting for the first time in September 2019. I wish I had started earlier. I was really enjoying myself. And I combined it as part of my NoFAP lifestyle. Anyone else here who tried NoFAP.

However, after this Coronavirus pandemic and the lockdown, just like everyone else, I have been mostly house-bound. I promised myself that I would maintain my NoFAP lifestyle. But, yesterday, I relapsed! Only fapping during this pandemic can stop me getting depressed!

How are you dealing with this situation?

*NoFAP is all about going without porn, masturbation, and orgasm. I was on the NoFAP Classic Mode which allows sex with a female. During the early stages of this pandemic, I thought I could try NoFAP Hard Mode which is no porn, masturbation, orgasm and no sex with females. But, I failed that one!

It would be good to hear from guys who tried NoFAP, or guys who are still succeeding with it, despite the halt to punting.

There's more to life than sex

I'm struggling.

When this is over and the establishments open again, I'm definitely going for a punt or 2, I'm climbing the walls here.

I am rather missing the fortnightly visits to either thai massage establishments (where you get a quality massage and some pretty good hand jobs also) and usually visiting escorts I see listed on viva street. I know most adds are more than likely fake but some also have adds on AW and they are usually accurate. I mainly look out for darker skinned ladies.

Quite a few are still listed so guess are still active. I am keeping my eye out but haven't found any I like the look of apart from the fakes

NoFap is for people who misuse wanking. seems odd to state but then it's like anything else. it's fun to do but should never be a mainstay.

Getting used to it actually, enjoying my new found wealth and wondering if I will return - let's see though, never say never!!!

2 posts in one day after a year on hear but oddly at odds with each other - soft core appointment called 'no point' but you getting used to no punting and considering whether to start up again sometime.

Hmmm!

"on hear"?

Hmmm!

Cant believe how long this stupid virus sticks around
Things are looking much better though and perhaps it will be back to normal in not
All too long

I'm hoping for a vaccine but can't see it coming very soon, fingers crossed! This is for getting back to normal life in general, not just punting.

I know that some girls are taking risks whilst others are fortunate enough to not have to - I wish them all well xxx

Correct me if I'm wrong but from 4 July, 2 households can meet indoors ie your allowed to go to someone's house or vice versa. As far as I'm concerned, you can therefore punt.

It says you got to socially distance but who would know? Also you both have to mutually agree cancel if any symptoms.

You are wrong
Cannot meet indoors with multiple 'households ' and don't think brothels can be classed as 'households'.

Well spotted. I had a quick look and there are 968,799 other typing errors on this message board you missed saying 'Hmmm!' about.

I feel a touch picked on

This is the official wording though. So surely it implies you can meet someone indoors?

Am i missing something?

"From 4 July:

you can meet in groups of up to two households (your support bubble counts as one household) in any location - public or private, indoors or outdoors. You do not always have to meet with the same household - you can meet with different households at different times. However, it remains the case - even inside someone’s home - that you should socially distance from anyone not in your household or bubble. This change also does not affect the support you receive from your carers"

To Addictpaul:

I think the rest of us might have to give up trying to help you stay well.

You seem to want to convince yourself that a form of intimate contact with a prostitute is very safe at a time of worldwide illness and many thousands of deaths.

I hope no post on here encourages you to believe you are right.

To be honest i wouldn't do it. There's times when I have debated it in my head trying to justify but wouldn't. I just wanted to put the 4 july official wording in here to see how people interpret it. It seems like from a legal perspective it is ok to go to someone's house as you won't be breaking a law. but in reality from a health perspective best not to is what I'm gathering from this.

Your recent posts are more reassuring: looking after your health is surely more important than doing something currently risky because it seems to just escape breaking the law.

really?

What is that an unhelpful reply to?

Notice the availability of the quote facility.

This CV-19 thing is really getting me frustrated, so I am trying to do something positive. I have put my name down as a possible Guinea Pig for a vaccine trial. I may not get chosen and if I do I may get a Placebo, but if I get the real deal, and it works, then I have a lot of time to make up so the quicker I can get started the better.

Would be interesting to know if it's going to work (i know that's the point of research) and if it's going to be a 'cure'. Not sure if I'd rush out on a punt after haivng it though, but that's my personal preference.
