me and my girlfriend met a little over a year ago, and over time we fell head over heels in love for each other and have been officially together since July, and every day was like the greatest adventure of my life! her dad is Navy and they got assigned to move to belgium in the spring, so i knew that she was leaving when we got involved, but something in me didn’t care, i only wanted to be with her. it went by way too fast. she moved 9 days ago, and it’s been so hard. we really want to be together, and nothing else has ever been so easy in my life to decide. i know she’s the one for me, and we got unofficially engaged (as in, we didn’t really tell anyone because of our families) a couple months ago, and we want to get married as soon as she can come back, and the earliest that can happen is December, but we’re really committed. I’ve used 43 things alot in the past, and i thought that this would be a great place to find encouragement and to read about others who have done this as well, it’s very encouraging to read people’s stories and in some cases, it makes 11 months feel not that long, which is good. all i know is that she is the love of my life, and i would give anything to be with her, and i will be faithful.

i met a girl who was a strong Christian and an active participant in a local bible-based church and now i go every Sunday and love it.

hi everyone. i haven’t written since june. i have been trying to stop masturbating since early this spring, and it has been a long and terribly frustrating road for me to walk down. i just wanted to let everyone who uses this site as a true source of encouragement know that it is NOT IMPOSSIBLE. As of today, I have gone 220 days with masturbating. I thank God for the strength that only He could have provided me with. For all of you who keep feeling like you are failing, and that it feels like Day 1 happens all the time, the fact that you care and have the inner conviction enough to want to stop is an accomplishment no matter who you are. I just wanted to give an update and to hopefully encourage all of those who maybe haven’t made it a whole week with masturbating before, but want to stop. It truly is an addiction that you must stop because it can and will control you if you let it. So, for all of you who really desire to stop, no matter what the reason, I commend you and want to let you know that it is absolutely possible and you CAN do it. Thank you so much for your support and praise God for the conviction and the strength to be able to be in control of your body, and not let it control you. Thanks.
