Dear Dr. G, I recently saw your article online and had to email my "secret" in the bedroom.
I am 32 years old this year, in a happy sexual relationship.
I 've been in love before and when my girlfriend finds out about my dark secrets they don't last long --masturbating.
Like most teenagers, when I was about 15 years old, I found the guilty pleasure of masturbation.
When I was young, I was engaged in such a self.
There is indulgence almost every day.
I know it's not good for me, but it's an addiction.
I started dating when I was 21.
I still can't get rid of this behavior despite having sex.
When I was "caught" by my girlfriend, I was often ashamed of this sad habit.
From the information I have collected, as we grow older, the desire for masturbation will gradually disappear, especially in sexually active relationships.
But my obsession with myself
Indulgence is not reduced.
While most of my peers deny doing so, I am sure that many people have developed such a habit, even in their 40 s.
I know masturbation is bad for me and I feel desperate and ashamed.
I really don't want to end my relationship with my girlfriend because of myself. indulgence.
I want Dr. G to unlock the hard facts about masturbation on the spot.
What is the frequency of masturbation at my age?
Is it normal for me to masturbate despite being in a healthy sexual relationship?
When I masturbate, what harm did I bring to myself.
Can I do something to get rid of this habit? Please help.
