in my experience other than making your sperm count higher there's not much of a benefit to not fapping, my orgasms felt the same when I went a month without, all that changed was the opacity, color and viscosity of my semen
well long story short he's NOT straight, he has a boyfriend (or at the very least aggressively made out with another guy) at the end of the episode
I was just freaking out because he was basically trying to force himself to be straight up until said gay make-out scene
he was essentially giving up on ever meeting a guy (due to believing himself to be the only gay boy in riverdale) and he flirted with and Asked out Veronica...I guess out of desperation
then Cheryl cock-blocked him and Veronica and he ended up getting un-cock-blocked by a cute guy who is now his boyfriend
I've been super super upset since I saw him flirt with her.........this show's done a lot of shitty things in just 3 eps but making an established Gay character be cured of his gayness is a huge fucking freak-the-fuck-out-with-blind-rage trigger for me
