Dude, I think what you're going through is a mix of frustration, loneliness, and maybe even a bit of addiction to the habit. When you rely on something for comfort too much, it can start to shape the way you think. I wouldn’t say masturbation alone is the reason you feel this way, but if it’s tied to porn and constant fantasies, it could definitely be reinforcing certain emotions and perspectives.
The biggest red flag to me is that you’re feeling more resentment toward women. That’s a sign that there’s unresolved frustration, and if you don’t address it, it’ll only get worse. You might not even realize it, but constantly indulging in sexual gratification without any real connection can make you start viewing women as objects rather than people. That’s dangerous territory because it distances you even further from the kind of relationship you say you want.
Have you ever tried cutting back just to see how you feel? A lot of guys report that quitting porn and reducing masturbation helps them regain confidence, motivation, and even a better attitude toward dating. It’s worth a shot. Even if you don’t quit completely, just being more mindful about how and why you do it could be eye-opening.
At the end of the day, balance is everything. If you feel like it’s negatively affecting you, take control of it instead of letting it control you.
