Heh, true. Was curious about how most people learned tho. I'm unaware of any good sources tho and well, last time I went looking for info I wound up on a porn binge again. I know most people don't see a problem but you do if you can't last a week without fapping.
Seriously, if they don't want someone doing porn they should warn about how addictive it is, then I'd have at least tried to actively avoid it...
Once a week is excessive to you? Oh dear :( that's really not excessive for a male. But then, I guess if you're religious, you feel differently. I don't mean to tell you not to be religious...but religion is very, very good at making people feel guilt about their bodies and normal urges.
Well I'm doing better than I used to. I decided I NEEDED to cut back when I realized I was using porn every night. At the worst, twice daily. Plus the porn led me to some... unnatural attractions that no girlfriend can satisfy. Or boyfriend, I guess. Either way, I need to clean it out of my system and the only way to do that is to abstain long enough for me to forget this attraction. Religious or not that's a problem. I'd like to not be sexually attracted to a pixelated 'toon with unrealistic anatomy thank you very much.
Ah my bad I misread. I read it as saying masturbating more than once a week was a problem, but you meant masturbating using porn as an aide too often is a problem? Or am I still misreading?
Yeah. It does set up completely unrealistic expectations. I don't really know what the solution is, because porn's never really been an interest for me. Sorry :/
's fine. No worries. Yeah, I meant something between the two, but it was me who wasn't communicating clearly. The problem is that I had been using porn often (nightly at one point) which became a legit problem. Nowadays, my record for staying porn free is a month and a half, but I can't stop masturbating for much more than a week, and usually when I do I start thinking about the porn. Though sometimes I don't even fantasize which might be even weirder...? I dunno. I don't know anything about it. But I do know that it seems like if I let my mind wander at all when I'm alone my dick takes control. I can't even hit the snooze button on the alarm clock because I'll jerk off morning wood without even thinking about it.
I don't care how often normal people masturbate. I'm not just trying to keep a religious vow, I'm trying to learn some self control.
I'm not reacting to what anyone's said, just venting a little. Sorry, I wasn't rude at all was I?
No, that wasn't rude. You sound a bit frustrated at your situation.
The wanting to have self control thing is understandable, and everyone has their right to determine what works for them. But you are young, and hormones are fucking shit sometimes. Do what you feel is right for you, just don't be too hard on yourself if you slip sometimes (if that's what you're doing. Maybe you're not. Idk. I'm not you).
If you want strict mormon rulex for masturbation youre listening to the right troll here. Dont invest too much effort into regulating masturbating habits if they dont affect your life. You only get so much enjoyment out of life and nobodys really going to care
Who did you get sex ed from? DAE feel that something got left out?

He's the one raised Mormon, not me, genius.
Glad to see you've potentially worked out how replies work. You're welcome.
Though you probably would have gotten confused if I'd replied to him first.
