I think I'm never going to goon again....

For context, I've been trying to quit porn since I was 14 (currently 17m) however because I got into it at a young age, 9, It's very diffiult for me. And tonight I relapsed again. And it felt, empty. I got no sense of pleasure from it. I just busted and that's it. I'm very akward and have little dating experience (virgin) and on top of that family issues have led to me feeling loveless in my life. So I've always used porn and gooning as a crutch. It made me feel a twisted sense of love I felt like I had never recieved from my parents or any other family members. All my exes were just using me and they never really loved me. And now my only crutch feel;s empty. I think I've reached the threshhold to were porn just is not enough anymore. All my friends have grown distant and the ones i still talk to are all dating and constantly telling me about they're sexual escapades. I think I'm done with all of this. With porn and gooning. I just want to live my life now. Whether im alone or not./.

Whst do you guys think?

How can I get better at socialising and Actually get some play.

I'm headed to University in a few weeks and I really want to work on my people skills. I'm scared I'm gonna end up roaming around campus alone with no purpose. Can anyone give me some advice on how I can get better at talking to people and be more engaging. NB: I'm the type of person who can say something in a group and get ignored like I ain't say nothing. I've been trying to get better but nothing seems to work.

Whiplash Directed By Damiel Chazelle. Rushing or dragging has got to be one of the best scenes ever written, direted and all of the above. The dialogue and the acting are sublime.

I've watched a lot of great movies but honestly I have not seen a scene as good as this. Are you rushing or dragging? Are there any other scenes You guys would consider better because I honestly don't see it. Even the piss yellow lighting enhances the scene so much. And having the prelude of the scene (Where that fat kid got kicked out even though he wasn't even off tempo). Did such a great job of setting expectations. Then following that up with Terrence Flectcher Actually encouraging Andrew and being nice to him! Added so much uncertainty and even though you know Terrence is probably going to chew him out you are also thinking. Maybe if he did his best then terrence would actually see his talent. Which is Andrew's exact mindset during the scene. Damien Chazelle is a GENIUS!!

Working On a 1st draft for my Manga (No Art Yet). How do you write characters with unique characters

To be specific. I want to write characters with unique character traits, flaws and quirks but I struggle with executing that. Meaning I want to actively show the reader a characters specific traits through their actions and dialogue. I just have no idea how to do that and make it seem authentic and fun. Help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm Just starting RE ZERO, watched S1 EP18 last night

That was probably the greatest episode i have ever watched in my 17 years of life. Like i dont even think i can continue past that. Why is this show so damn good? The ENTIRE episode is literally just yapping over and over again and the emotional highs I felt where just ELITE. I cried for hours before falling asleep as i couldnt even bring myself to watch the next episode. Truly this is Peak fiction.

Which is More important, Natural Talent or Hardwork?

I'm an aspiring writer yet i feel i have no talent for writing, i have ideas on unique characters yes but when it comes to other things like worldbuilding, Action, and creating memorable moments, (Which i Consider to be the most important thing in writing). I feel terrible at. I suck at putting down my thoughts and ideas in a cohesive and impactful way, and when i do, it doesnt seem original and true to the type of story i want to write. So For the longest I kinda just told myself i wasnt talented enough to write the type of story i want to write, something meaningful and emotional yet powerful and impactful. Is it possible for me to just work hard and put everything into it? Or should i just give up on it because of my lack of talent and creativity? Its this question that has stopped me from writing anything in the past 6 months. PLease help. THANK YOU
