Is it normal to feel lonely when masturbating?

Sometimes when I masturbate, I feel a bit like a loser. I just sometimes wish I had someone stable to have sex with. Makes me feel a bit stupid at the thought of couples having sex out there whilst I am masturbating.
I can get sex, as in one night stands but that clearly isn't always guaranteed so I do feel a bit like a lonely loser masturbating.
Is this normal?

  • You need to sing dappled's "Masturbation Song" while you go at it. Basically, you get rid of any thoughts of loneliness by thinking about what you're having for dinner, when the window cleaner is coming around, that kind of stuff. It goes like this:

    Touching my wiener
    Touching my wiener
    What's for deener
    What's for deener
    Where's that stupid
    Window cleaner
    Touching my wiener
    Touching my wiener
    Touching my wiener woo!

      • Then I shall come and sing the song to you while you attend to business. Might help with the loneliness thing too.

        • Sure, I'd be happy to sing it back to you in return. I'm going to go practice right now and maybe even sing if there's time.

  • I don't feel lonely when I masturbate, I masturbate when I feel lonely.

    Sometimes I get urges and that makes me realise that I have no-one to satisfy them.
    Then I masturbate and realise that I don't need someone to satisfy them and can do so perfectly well on my own.

  • i simply masturbate when i want an orgasm.

    it's nothing to do with lonely or not, but that my body wants something and i give in to the urge.

  • It is normal. I used to feel exactly the same way when I was younger and single. I didn´t have any prejudices against masturbation (moral, religious...), no, but only these sad feelings of loneliness and feeling like a loser. Over the years, I learned to manage these feelings with the help of watching porn and I learned how to escape from this sad frame of mind during masturbation but it took quite a long time. So I know what you are talking about. Porn helped me a little bit, at least during the masturbation session. But these feelings disappeared completely only when I found a partner who is sexually compatible with me and my sexual needs.
