Dear YoungMufasa:

You are welcome. “And yes, I’m aware of the cons of porn. In fact, for two nights in a row, I went to bed without porn or sexting. That’s why I want to quit, because I know porn is making my craving for physical touch much higher“- I think that quitting porn, and quitting sexting, are very good ideas.

“I’m already thinking about starting to use dating apps. Enough virtual illusion“- I think that you are on the right track!

“The people I’m around… are suggesting that I should find true love or a soulmate“- you chose the screen name Mufasa. Mufasa is a boy name of African origin meaning king, or ruler, “Mufasa encapsulates the essence of sovereignty and authority, carrying with it the weight of ancestral lineage and dignity” (online).

I don’t know if you gave the name much thought, but if you did, or you do, consider, if you will, how to proceed from where you are with authority and dignity, dignity for yourself and for all the people involved in your life.
