"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Generally, nofap as it's proposed here is generally to try to use the creatitve and masculine energy by semen retention in order to get real women and have real sex. However, for people like me, that doesn't work, so looking at it from primarily a health perspective, nofap is a stupid concept if it's hurting prostate health. From a spiritual standpoint, it could induce feelings of guilt or alienation from fellowship with God, or not being 100% present and in the moment. While we like to pretend only physical things are a concern, if you take the fact this life is not be all and end all for everything we all stand before God to give account for our lives, then health, while it is a priority, it is not the only priority. For example, some people can take great care of themselves and then they could get into an accident or develop some freak rare cancer, etc.... Look at what happened just 4 years ago with covid. People who had relationships and thought they wouldn't die alone, had to actually die alone and nobody could do anything to help. People who were previously healthy and taking great care of their bodies caught this virus and ended up disabled or dead, and that includes the vaccine side-effects. Nobody saw that coming in 2020.

I was recommended this too by my urologist, but to "unclog" the pipes.

If I do not masturbate and do not get laid for more than 2 weeks, my well being suffers. I don't feel as good from a mental standpoint. While I won't masturbate if I go more than 2 weeks without sex, I know I'm not in a good spot if I'm not getting laid. Getting laid regularly also helps keep a nofap streak going.
