I have an internet addiction, so I disconnected it

[parametric_dc]

...cause when you really think about it, life's to short to sit in front of a fucking computer 24/7.

I called Verizon and told them to jettison my account - and also talked them into waiving all early termination fees and giving me a remaining balance of zero.

I did this about two weeks ago and I swear it's one of the best things I've ever done. Cause, see, I would use the internet as an escape. The way an alcoholic crawls into the bottle, I crawl into t3h interwebs. And then there's the porn issue. Not that I was ever a big collector, but I developed a habitual response to my sexual angst. When I would feel my sexual frustration start to rise...I'd just go to a porn site. God, that sucks. Years can fly by before you realize how pathetic you've become. It's frightening.

I really don't a give a shit how inconvenient it is. Besides, I have internet at work and nobody really cares what we do on it (within reason, of course). That's how I've been able to get onto Dallas PUA, etc.

Anyways, I'm just sharing with you guys because, hey, that's what were supposed to do here, yeah?

Fuck porn. Internet addiction. And video games.

The idea, for me, is to completely remove any and all distractions and detours from my life's purpose. If a need arises in my life, I want to feel it and be able to address it rather than have it get numbed out for years with a bunch of nonsense like, say, arguing religion on net forums. In the area of love, specifically, I envision this for my future:

A petite, beautiful, exotic woman. Dark hair and eyes. Artistically and creatively inclined. Intelligent. Ethical. Wise. Nice legs and ass. Independent in her own goals, but prefers to be submissive in her relationship with me.

This is the kind of women I want to be with and, ultimately, wind up with in a single LTR.

I will make this happen and one way of doing that is to stop thinking about them while I jack off and actually go out and talk to them for real. And that can be helped by shitcanning the internet at my apartment because I'm not yet strong enough to avoid the temptation of using it as an escape.


Hey, speaking of exotic women...is there an area in Dallas where these women like to go? I mean, the beautiful olive-skinned Mediterranean, eastern-european, latina, etc...types. Cause, god, I love them.

Don't worry before you know it you will be swimming with women and have no time to do any of that stuff. You will be able to reconnect your internet if you want but you won't have time to jerk off.

Going cold turkey is probably the best thing you can do though. And yes wasting your life away on your computer is worthless. I used to be addicting to online gaming so I know how time can waste away.

I am used to being on the computer for 12 hours a day at work. on my off days, I did similar at times... either that, or tv, or movies.

Now, I have to stay on at work.

But on my days off, I limit my exposure. I check my email twice, and I will pop on here to see if anything is going on, but other than that, I am trying to stay away.

First, respect for your honesty. Very few people are refreshingly honest about this kinda stuff, and it's always good to see it. I too struggled with it for years. Only recently, have I mostly stopped "taking matters into my own hands "

Napolean Hill's Think and Grow Rich talks about harnessing your sex drive, and directing your energy into something else. I notice a VAST difference in how alpha I am, when I dont vs. when I do. I prefer the first option.

Olive skinned women, eh? I second that notion. I'm drawn to curvy, tanned brunettes myself. You like Latinas? Mambo Cafe, or Gloria's. I hope you like to dance, cause they LOVE to.

I'm currently doing salsa dancing lessons, on Fridays mostly at Mambo Cafe. Their free, and this week, we might have a decent group out there from the board. It's a lot of fun, no matter what level your at.

Thanks for the replies.

Yeah, Fenix, I've done the whole sexual transmutation thing. Very powerful. It's not always easy to accomplish, but I find that using sex drive as a motivation for anything is extremely powerful.

Boobies and ass is the only reason guys do anything. Anyone that tells you different is lying. It's not a secret.

I had an internet addiction before. Porn, myspace, facebook. I deleted my myspace and facebook and cancelled my internet for over 6 months so I could spend more time with people and such. Ironically it was one of my loneliest times in recent memory. I got it all back and I'm popular again.
