Masturbation

Is it OK to masturbate if you're in a relationship?

Yes! it is very common for people who are in a committed long-term relationship to masturbate. When one masturbates while in a relationship, it does not mean that your respective partner does not satisfy you; instead, it improves communication about what feels more sexually pleasurable to you since you are better aware of your body. Being open and comfortable enough to talk about what feels better for you can result in a stronger relationship and make your sexual experience more pleasurable. Some engage in masturbation at the same time with their partner, known as Mutual Masturbation. This is also a way to be intimate with each other with less risk of contracting any STDs or pregnancy.
