A guy walked into a bar with his giraffe. He ordered a drink, and the giraffe lay down beside him. The bartender barked angrily, "Excuse me, but you can't leave that lying there!"

"Err," the man said, "It's not a lion. It's a giraffe."

Hi Zem,

I'm honored that I made it into your signature.

I would modify your above post by one letter.

"Excuse me, but you can't leave that lying there!"

Like Trukin

A shammas? During Adar?

You can be whatever you want, but you can't modify anyone's post if you are not a moderator.

Well since i happens to be the most important one (that I can answer at least), I will make sure that it is answered.

No, the 12 steps is not about figuring it out, BUT that's what I was doing subconsciously, working at how to understand myself, what to tell myself in order to keep myself from acting out. I was using all the "program lingo" but in a way where in the end it was ME who really brought about the results.

While I was lying there that night, thinking about how much I was obsessing, and realizing that I had nothing to tell myself to stop me, I realized that getting unobsessed (without acting out) would be nothing short of a miracle. I couldn't even think about one fantasy at a time, my mind was just all over the place. And He came through.

It is not about figuring it out, for there was nothing then that I figured out, except that the only One that could get me out of it was, Hashem.

Ok, let's make this quick.

The loophole still works. How do I know? I use it to watch movies. Innocent movies, but still time consuming, life wasting, relationship destroying, movies.

I haven't officially stopped, really given it up. So here is to that......to life without movies, no matter how bored I may be in the bathroom, or elsewhere, I will not, with Hashem's help, watch another movie.

ahhhhh........that feels good.

(thanks skep for the last push to post this [on GYE, 'cause GYE is NOT fake!!] )
