SR Questions and Thoughts

Q1: Does semen retention decrease sexual stamina? (the last time I had sex I lasted fairly long and while I'm committed to semen retention, I don't know if the trade off of lasting 2 strokes when I do find myself in healthy sexual experiences, is worth it.)
T1: I've read a few posts on this subreddit and my own reason for semen retention is because I wasn't hungry enough for sex. I would find myself being flirted with in public but I was so drained of my drive from how easy it was to release all the time that I was sluggish and had no desire to actually earn sexuality.

If there are other people like this let me know how semen retention has helped you in this regard.
Q2: My childhood friend and I kept in contact over the years and porn and masturbation was a pretty common thing we talked about but around the exact same time I started retaining, he did as well without any of us talking about it. We both simultaneously scrubbed our life of porn and I just found it pretty odd when he told me. (we would be both considered porn and masturbation addicts by anyone with a brain)

Could our sexual energies be so aligned that we could sense the other retaining?

T2: SR has been so easy that I'm starting to think there might be something wrong with me. I used to be addicted to weed, porn, and masturbation and I quit all of them simultaneously (when I wanted to start retaining) with the idea that they all feed into each other and if I keep one around, it will lead me to ejaculate. I have no urges at all for them anymore. I mostly spend my time working out or meditating when I'm not reading or working. I still have sexual urges and have found myself wanting a girlfriend more than I've ever wanting in my life but no urges for ejaculation. Masturbating just seems odd now and feels like betraying myself.

Q3: I came in my dream last night and woke up with the feeling I had failed even though nothing physically happened. It is normal to have borderline nightmares about retention? I think in the dream the curiosity of what it would feel like or look like after retaining for a while got me to, is this also a common occurrence?
T3: Nothing in my life has been as indefinite as semen retention. I know for a fact that I will keep retaining until I get a girlfriend and I will use this energy I'm accumulating to redirect my life so that "getting a girlfriend" isn't something that I have to activity think about. I don't see myself ever giving up or relapsing while I feel clearer.

Q4: Do any retainers here have a healthy sex life and only retain in between not having a sexual partner? I feel like that is a life I would like to live.
