Question about my guy materbating?
Awhile back when we had first started dating, my bf made some comment about how he was materbating to pictures of one of his sisters friends, who he had fooled around with once in the past. I got mad, not about him looking at porn and materbating, because I could care less, and I do the same thing. But I was mad about WHAT he was looking at. He apologized and promised never to do it again, and that it would always just be porn(ie people he didnt know). Awhile when I was looking for a site i had previously visted in the history(honest! i dont spy on him or anything like that) I noticed that in the middle of a few porn sites, was a site where a friend of his' sisters msn space photo gallery. Now ive noticed it in the drop down menu a couple times recently as well.
Im just wondering if any guys can tell me, does it mean anything? Im sure it doesnt, but it still kinda makes me wonder why he needs to look at pictures of people he knows and such, when there are tones of hot porn stars out there with pictures(and that show more for that matter lol). How much does the porn your looking at really mean? Or is it always just nothing, and forgotten quickly. |

I know that personally sometimes I find it much more pleasant to think about someone I actually know when I am masterbating then just some porn star. There is something about it that makes it almost forbidden so it can be very arousing. That doesn't mean that he wants to be with her at all. Like I know when I was in High School I found it more pleasant to think about someone in class than to just get on the net and look at porn. Even though when I was in school with them I had no desire whatsoever to get to know them. Does that make any sense?

Does it mean anything? Not really. The most intense fantasies I have are of girls I ALMOST slept with but didn't, or just had a one-night stand with. I rarely think about girlfriends that I had for years... which is strange but I guess I "had my fill" and don't have to imagine anything.
Online porn is artificial and repetitive (just my opinion). Not only do they leave their shoes on, they rarely kiss or show real emotion. Memories of your past become amplified as you get older and for myself, it's those old love situations that turn me on the most. There's a personal connection and time makes the fantasy better than it really might have been. It's a bad idea to get upset about this. He'll just take it into the bathroom with him and be afraid to be honest in the future. Getting upset about something that isn't really happening doesn't make a lot of sense either unless.... he wants to still hookup with this girl, which he most likely wouldn't do for risk of destroying the fantasy. I never look or think about porn when I'm masterbating. I enjoy it as eye-candy or as a way to get aroused, but it's always girls that I've known in the past that are in my mind when I'm rubbing one out. Chances are, in the future your bf will be thinking about you like this rather than porn. So give him some good memories. Last edited by tiltedbc; 07-24-2005 at 09:02 PM.. Reason: grammar |

I think the chances are you have nothing to worry about. I'm married but I masturbate while fantasising about having sex all sorts of people I know. The important thing is that I know they are fantasies and fantasies only. These are not things I would want to happen in real life. The other thing is for me, it is not a substitute for real sex, it's just a different activity, just like playing a football computer game is not as good as doing the 'real thing' it's just something you can do on your own, at your own convenience, and switch it on and off to suit yourself and it's actually a different kind of enjoyment you get out of it.
So using the picture of the person in question is barely any different to using your imagination, although I admit it would be a bit creepy if you caught someone actually doing it. |

my bf has been gone for the month now, working away.And i have only masturbated once in the time that he wasnt here(can you imagine how horny i am right now?) and that was when we did it together one night during phone sex.
and only last night i found out that he masturbated a couple of times while he was away. and i was disappointed that he did. the thing is that ...for me it's more emotional than physical. now, i dont know bout other peeps but i only masturbate when im with him and when he asks me to.maybe i'm just strange in that way but i felt that in a way , i was saving myself till he got back and thought that he was doing the same. i dont that that he was thinking about me while he was doing it, its just the fact that he did. i hope you see what im trying to get at here because normally i'd beable to tell you exactly what i think now i just seem to have writers block i'll get back to that one... |

I wouldn't worry about it. I masturbate to almost every female I know. Its just makes it more interesting. Its just fantasy. I used to masturbate to all my (ex) girlfriends friends, but I would never cheat on her because I loved her and she didn't deserve that.
What really confuses me is why would he tell you he did that? I think he should of kept that to himself. I did. There is no reason he should of told you that. I mean be honest in a relationship, but what did he think your reaction would be.....positive? Dumb move on his part. I totally understand you getting mad. If my girlfriend told me she masturbates to her brothers friend. I would be pissed!

I'd like to add that perhaps the fact that he only masturbated a couple of times over the course of the whole month should indicate that he WAS really trying to restrain himself for your sake!

People draw the line at sex, because it's so intimate, but taken in a different light this is much clearer.
If a girl is a horrible bitch to me, and I "fantasize" about beating the hell out of her, it doesn't mean I'm going to. If someone cheats me out in a business deal, and I "fantasize" about burning down their house, it doesn't mean I'm going to. If my parents had pissed me off, and I "fantasized" that they just die, it doesn't mean that I want that to actually come to fruition. I say "fantasize" to keep the language of the post, but it is merely a passing thought. There's a definite line between thought and action that we clearly recognize, and its present in thoughts about sex as well. I can see how, as a girl, you are concerned that he is "desiring" this other girl, but that is likely not the case. If you've ever thought about another man sexually, whether your hand was anywhere near your equipment or not, you've gone through the same process. "Man, they're attractive. Wonder what it would be like to have sex with them?" I agree that getting angry about it will further drive him inward, and he will likely be less honest in the future. The only thing you should be concerned about, I believe, is whether he has the moral fortitude to draw the line at fantasy and not cross over into action.

It's more exciting to see a woman you know naked than some random model.
I mean, Sophie, Ashley and Erica are exciting, but given the choice, I'd much rather see my next door neighbor sans clothing. There's a bit of the 'forbidden fruit' tinge to it that makes that much more exciting. I wouldn't be too worried about it. I seriously doubt anything is going to come of it. You can't police what he fantasizes about, you can't police what he looks at and you certainly can't police what he jerks off to. Any attempt to do so is only going to cause him to resent you.

Hotness of picturing people you know naked > hotness of total strangers naked. There's nothing to worry here. Some men prefer "real" women (hence the abundence and popularity of girl-next-door amatuer porn sites) to professional models. Since this is somebody that he knows in the flesh-and-blood world, it makes it all that much more real. One more note: Remember that this was a girl that he was once with. Now, I completely hate my ex girlfriend with every nanoimpulse of my brain, but I still fantasize about her nude. There's no chance I'll go back to her, just like there's no chance your guy will ever end up with this girl.

Hmm.
hottness of people you know > hottness of people you don't know true I imagine thinking about him doing that to pictures of people you know doesn't exactly make you feel like the apple of his eye. Bust his balls about it. Tell him she looks like the kinda girl who has herpes or something so that he get nice mental images like that when he trys to whack it.

Unless something happens to make you suspicious, I say don't worry about it. As far as we know, it's just a fantasy, and most people have some kind of fantasy to add variety to their sexual experiences.
Lunatic: If you have to break someone's habits to be with them, go find someone else to be with.

If you want to use equations, then i'll use variables. It is not up to person A to fix person B. Person A needs to tell person B, i have a problem with X ( where X = behavior ). Then it is up to person B to change out of B's free will. If B does not want to change X, then it is time for A to rethink being in a relationship with B. To equate this to my personal life. My wife tells me if something I do is bothering her. I probably don't know it is bothering her until she tells me. At the time I find out I figure out how much that behavior means to me. If it is something I can compromise (i.e. not smoking cigars in the car ) then I stop and the problem is fixed. Were it something like wanting to have a guys night out ( i.e. my freedom ) then I would tell her I need my space and ask her to concede on that. That is productive compromise. Playing head games and manipulating is not.

From my personal male perspective I would be worried if I were you. Guys can and will slip if given the chance. If he is still in contact with this girl things might get out of hand unless you are absolutely sure she has no intrest in your boyfriend.
Jealousy can be a dangerous thing though. Tread carefully, less you cause much adoo about a little thing. Once again from my perspective and experience, this girl will not be a direct threat to your relationship but she can influence the way your guy thinks about sex. He might start expecting things of you that he sees the girl do. In the end this may lead to sexual disatisfaction, even if it's all in his head. |

Thanks guys Definatly made me feel better about the situation. I wasnt planning on confronting him about it, or starting any sort of a fight about it, was just kind of curious about how much what a guy looks at means. For girls its a little different, because while I like porn, I could definatly never masterbate to the picture of some guy a know. Id feel very guilty about it yada yada.

My wife knows that I do sometimes so she decided to take a pro-active solution. I came home one day and she had downloaded pictures of her from our camera that she took when I was away. Now she knows that if I'm doing it when she's not around that I'm looking at her. The fact that she did that turned me on beyond belief.

Why don't you just talk to him about it?
I felt uncomfortable about hubby looking at pics at first and about him fantacising about his highschool crush. I told him that I felt like I could never compare to those other women and was afraid he enjoyed their pictures more than actually having sex with me. His answer settled all my fears. Don't attack but tell him how it makes you 'feel'. Hubby's reply was (cliff notes version) - That I could never compare to the fantasy and to the "fixed" photos he looked at. That Nothing could be the real thing. That the fantasy about his crush somewhat was enticing because of it's being "forbidden" in that it will never happen. I really doubt he wants to cheat on you, even with a former playmate. If you talk to him about your discomfort it will help your relationship and probably calm your worries better than anything we can say here. Good Luck.
