We’re always talking about the benefits of masturbation on Gurl, because… hey, masturbation is awesome! I don’t think it’s too hard to agree with that. But is there such a thing as overdoing it when it comes to masturbation? In fact – can masturbating too much actually ruin your relationship? A new study says, yeah, it’s possible.
Relax, relax. I’m not taking this study seriously and you probably shouldn’t either. Well actually, if you’re legitimately addicted to masturbation, you should take it seriously because then, yeah, your addiction is probably ruining your relationship. But if you’re just a girl who enjoys having a little fun on her own every once in a while (or everyday, whatever), you probably don’t have anything to worry about.
Why? Well, this study that says too much masturbating can possibly ruin your relationship is a study that was done on people who are legit addicted to masturbation. You can see how that may cause a problem.
Apparently, the survey was done to increase tolerance of excessive masturbation, because although it’s a serious issue, I guess not many people take it very seriously. I can see how it may come off as just plain creepy or as a lame excuse to some people, but guys, this is a real thing and really can cause some big problems in a relationship.
Do you have to worry about it? Probably not. If you’re masturbating multiple times a day every day, if you’d constantly rather play with yourself than hook up with someone else, if you feel like you can’t go a few hours without pleasuring yourself… then yeah, maybe you have an issue.
But if you’re just taking some time to masturbate every day? No worries! As we’ve said before, masturbating is fun and harmless. It’s a great way to get in touch with your sexuality, to figure out what you really like, to get in a better mood or to feel relaxed after a stressful day. Did I mention that it’s fun?
In conclusion, masturbating is not going to ruin your relationship. Like all great things, too much of it will cause problems (life is unfair). But as long as you’re not obsessed with masturbation, you should be fine. In fact, I’m encouraging you to masturbate, whether you’re in a relationship or not. I’m not trying to be creepy – it’s good for you!
