Masturbation makes me feel sad. Why?

Question

I can share a little bit about this, I suppose.
Several years ago, I was an overweight and frankly unattractive guy with a negative outlook about everything and no friends. I'd sooner sit home and play video games than go to one of the few parties I'd actually get invited to, even if it was just by proxy.
I never thought I'd get a girlfriend, ever. I was resigned to that. I never bothered looking, so, I'd just sit home and whenever I felt the urge, I'd...well, yeah.

Today I'm in great shape, I'm not shy, I go out a lot, and have a ton of friends, and I'm successful academically and at work. I should be a happier person save for the fact that every girl I ever get close to decides they just want to be my best friend.
Bad breakup recently, too, with my BEST friend in the world.
Well, right now, there's no sex, and I am NOT looking to hook up with anyone I'm not in a relationship with.
However, masturbating just makes me feel sad. Pathetic, even. Often to the point where I can't climax.

Because subconsciously, you associate masturbation with that very bad time in your life, when you say you were pathetic. You pride yourself on the fact that you are well past that low point, and you might be afraid or depressed to go back to that stage in your life, even though that's in the past and it's very unlikely. Masturbating even brings back the nasty emotions of that period.

Remember, there's nothing wrong with masturbation, and everyone does it, winners, losers, successful people, popular people, lonely people... you need to stop associating masturbation with weakness, or whatever you were several years ago.

Answer 2

It's probably because you associate it with the person you used to be and don't want to be that person anymore. By masturbating you are feel like you are slipping back into that person. It brings back all the feelings and emotions you had back when you used to masturbate alot.

Answer 4

Because it makes Jesus cry. Kidding.

Maybe it reminds you of how lonely (sexually or otherwise) you feel when you do it. Take pride in spanking it, pal. Many of us can't - our wives would be REALLY angry if they woke up at 2:00 to see crappy showtime porn on the TV and hear heavy breathing from the other side of the bed.

If it makes you feel bad, and you can't overcome it, then just don't do it to begin with until you can get past whatever atcually causes the bad feeling. If you CAN just ignore it and remind yourself all of the reasons why it's just that much better to do it yourself then more power to you.
