Man, this is such an important conversation. I used to think I was alone in feeling like something was missing. Jerking off was just this thing I did to get it over with, but it left me feeling empty afterward. I stumbled upon a discussion online about “mindful masturbation,” and that’s when things started to change.
The idea is simple: instead of treating it like a chore, you make it an intentional act. I started by setting the mood—dimming the lights, playing music, even using scented candles. It felt silly at first, but I realized it’s about creating an environment where you can fully relax and enjoy yourself.
One thing that really transformed my experience was incorporating massage into the mix. Taking the time to explore different sensations, both physical and emotional, opened up a new level of self-awareness. It became less about the end goal and more about the journey.
Now, I feel more in tune with myself, and that confidence has spilled over into other areas of my life. When I do meet someone, I’m not desperate for connection because I’ve already learned how to fulfill myself. It’s a powerful shift. Anyone else feel like their solo time has made them better at connecting with others?
