Just deleted everything...I know wrong place...but

Needed to get this off my chest, and I sure as hell am not going to the real world to tell anyone about it. 120 GB of it, everything down to the last thumbnail and bookmark. Feel free to move this to where ever, perhaps the discussion board or delete it might be appropriate. I feel about 100 pounds lighter for it mentally. Just wondering if anyone else here has considered it or done it. I feel like a different person, but I'm sure I'll like that person much better. Now if only I could get back all of the time I have spent on it, it would be a win rather than a stop loss. G'night folks, thanks for all the fish, cause I won't be back.

If you didn't have cp, then what was the problem? This morality you've adhered to which you ALLOWED to take control of your emotions and your sense of guilt is completely fabricated. It doesn't exist in any true sense. If deleting all of your porn made you feel better, then that's cool and all but it's more indicative of weakness on your part because there is nothing wrong with porn (the legal kind). There's no dude up there with a long ass beard looking down on you all disappointed cuz you had a porn collection. But hey, whatever helps you sleep at night.

It's not about guilt, more about something I do not feel that I "need" or "want" anymore. I should have elaborated, but it was late and I'm generally pressed for time. This is not a statement that softcore porn or even some hardcore porn (most hardcore porn from what I've seen is disgusting, unimaginative, and very formulaic, and it doesn't even do the job to boot), is bad or evil or misogynistic or whatever. It's more of a statement for some people, time to grow up and move on, to put away adolescent things if I may modify the saying. If I had a problem, it was more in the time I spent on it, and the fact that, while some of the images are beautiful, they are only images and nothing more. They don't keep you warm at night, they won't be something you're thinking about when you're old, and they certainly are not something to reminisce about with friends at a pub. Porn is a solitary activity and we as human beings have enough of that in this day an age. I may keep following this thread, because this could be an interesting discussion. In the end to destroy a thing is to control a thing, and it's nice to be in control again. Peace out for now.

If you think I have a bad opinion about softcore porn, feel free to download some of the sets I've shared and read some of the descriptions I've written about the ladies in those photos and you will understand that that is certainly not the case. Hardcore porn (mostly) is altogether a different creature and the only thing I wish upon the greasy sleazeballs that produce that crap is the pox, but enough hate, lol.

- I'm also wondering if anyone else has pondered this decision that I made recently. What are your motivations? Have you "purged" before? Did you quit and start downloading again?

i actually just recently lost a lot of videos that I have no idea how or where to get back (doesn't help all the file hosting sites are closing too) and I frantically downloaded as much as I could remember. So to answer your question... no But I have been sorting through my stuff, getting rid of things I had no idea why I downloaded in the first place. I don't have many addictions, but this is one of them o.o

You said in your first post you wouldnt be back, strange your second post is a day later.

Ya but he was just clearing things up. The new girlfriend thing, which is what I suspect happened, seems to be working out as he has not posted since. But once she dumps his arse, he'll be back!

I never thought of that JB. he's secretly probably at another site... old habits die hard. but maybe he went full blown celibate?
