Salaams all. I’m a 22M really struggling with my desires. I’m not in a position to get married at the moment as I don’t have the financial circumstances to support a wife currently. I’m on track towards a promotion within 2 years or so which will comfortably then allow me to support a partner financially. I lower my gaze and try not to interact with the opposite gender as much as I can, go to the gym and attend the masjid to keep myself busy and to use this energy up. The problem is I feel myself slipping and heading towards sin which sounds so bad to say but I’m really struggling with no outlet. It’s taking all of me to not slip but especially having non Muslim and also Muslim women in constant proximity, flirting with me and blatantly trying to come on to me despite me not entertaining it, is leading to my mind wandering and I find myself having to fight off inappropriate thoughts a lot of the day. Genuine advice/duas would be greatly appreciated. I have managed to stay away from Zina my whole life but as bad as it sounds to say and type out, I’m really starting to struggle and feel myself leaning more towards it. Any advice/duas would be greatly appreciated.
