Which is harder to quit?

[jobluek]

For a single guy: beating the meat, or smoking?

I do both way too often so am trying to quit both at once. On day 4 I've managed to keep my hands off myself and have cut back smoking to like 1-2 a day, but not cold turkey. I don't anticipate going further than a week on #1 since I am not a fan of nocturnal emissions, but once a week is pretty much an enormous feat for me.

On a side note, in the last 2 days I have asked out two different girls I've kind of had a thing for, so have two dates! Pretty crazy considering I haven't been on a "real" date in a long, long time. Not sure if it's a coincidence or not, but it'd be a pretty big coincidence.

I realize that going 4 days isn't really a big deal but if you have a habit ingrained for so long it's tough to break. But I digress.

I quit smoking three weeks ago.. just keep beating but don't smoke.. uh.. anyways some people can quit easier than others.. just take a look at old smokers around you and their wrinkled skin..

4 days is a great start man, keep up the good work.

I've never smoked, but I'd guess that if you're addicted to it and have been doing it for a long time, that would be much harder to give up than jerkin' it.

I doubt you getting the dates is coincidence either. I feel "hungrier" so to speak and my confidence seems to be higher when I haven't tugged it for a while. I'm guessing it's probably having the same effect on you.

masturbation/porn are ALOT worse.

and P.S. this is embarassing, but if you ever take adderall or amphetamine, DO NOT go to a porn site! You wont close it until after 12 hours. Like its BAAAAD.

That is so true. youTube is the same way.

I'd say kill the smoking habit, but with [almost] everything in life, moderation is best. Don't cut yourself off, but playing with yourself a half dozen times a day probably isn't healthy either.
