Masturbating in relationships

I think it's something that's up to each couple and what you've both (or multi, I dunno, I don't judge) decide for yourselves. Communication is important and being in a relationship means that you now have to consider the other party and what's good with everyone involved so that could be something y'all would need to discuss Personally, I don't care :p

I masturbate if I'm with a girl who has a lower sex drive than me or isnt available for sex 24/7. I just have a high sex drive and very few girls can match me. But I'd rather have sex than masturbate. I also dont want to pressure a gf into sex. I only want her to if she wants it, not just to satisfy me. But most girls I've known are not into sex 1-3 times a day.

I don't think it's weird, like, one might think "why fap when you got each other?" but you can't have sex as often as you can fap, fapping is quick and easy. Sometime you want to fap to specific stuff too.

Sometimes it's just more efficient to have a quick 5 minute fap than have a huge production that takes up a whole evening. Most couples don't have the time for sex every day. The one who has the higher sex drive just faps more. No real shame in that. In the grand scheme of things, isn't everything just tits, butt, and peen?

It's a matter to be discussed with your partner before you wank it. IMO there's nothing wrong with a little stress relief when you need it, as long as it's for stress relief.
