And I don't feel too terrible about it - I did pretty good. I just don't want to tell my ex that I slipped. Hiding my masturbation habits from her was what broke us up in the first place...

We still live together, we're still very good friends, we spend lots of time together, and I don't think it's right for me to try to pretend I didn't slip up... but I really don't want to tell her what happened.

I think I'm just going to have to man up and say it. Not make a big deal of it, I slipped, I was doing very well, I'm going to reset the counter and try again - four weeks this time - and just accept that she's going to be disappointed in me, but that doesn't make me worth less as a person who is trying to make himself better.
