How Porn And Masturbation Decrease Your Confidence?
Porn and masturbation completely ruins your confidence and turn you into a life-less zombie.
Here are some of the ways porn and masturbation screws up your confidence:-
1. Guilt And Shame
By indulging in PMO(Porn, masturbation, orgasm), you’re causing yourself a lot of guilt an shame.
By watching 2 or more people having sex and then pleasing yourself, you’re saying to yourself that you’re not good enough to go and have sex yourself, that’s why you need to watch other people enjoy and try to please yourself.
If you’re hungry, you don’t watch other people eat and try to satisfy your hunger, you go and eat something for yourself. So when you’re horny, why you’re watching other people have sex and try to please yourself, go and have sex for yourself.
People who indulge in PMO regularly can’t maintain eye contact with people while talking to them. They can’t have a smooth conversation with people. They become shy and awkward in social gatherings and they start avoiding social gatherings.
2. Tired All The Time
If you indulge in PMO(Porn, masturbation, orgasm) regularly, you’ll be tired all the time and if you’re tired all the time you won’t be confident.
Your semen contains a lot of energy and when you ejaculate you’re wasting that energy. As a result, you’ll feel exhausted and tired. If you do it rarely, then you might not feel exhausted all the time but if you do it daily then you’ll feel exhausted and tired all the time because you won’t get enough time to recover from it. PMO drains you of your energy.
People who indulge in PMO regularly don’t feel like doing anything productive, even the smallest of the tasks becomes a burden and they feel like laying in bed all the time.
Since they feel exhausted all the time, they won’t feel like socializing or talking to people. Excessive PMO makes you socially anxious.
3. Inferiority Complex
People who indulge in PMO regularly develop an inferiority complex.
They have become so much accustomed to pleasing themselves by watching other people having sex that they start thinking of themselves as inferior to others.
By pleasing themselves while watching other people having sex, they are accepting the fact that they are not good enough to go and enjoy themselves, they have to depend on others to give them pleasure.
This inferiority complex shows in other areas of their life too. They start seeing other people as superior to them. This badly hurts their confidence.
4. Confidence With Women
PMO turns you into a simp. You start putting women on a pedestal and start treating them like goddesses.
You start seeing sex as the ultimate form of pleasure and since only women can give you sex, you start treating them like goddesses and this badly hurts your game with women.
Also, you start seeing them as sex objects. Whenever you look at a woman, having sex with her is the first thing that comes to your mind. As a result, people who indulge in PMO can’t hold a conversation with women.
