This seems like a silly issue, but it has really affected our marriage negatively. We are in our early 20’s and have been married less than a year. I moved half across the country to be with him after we dated long-distance for 2 years.
We were very open about what we did while we were apart. I knew he masturbated, and he knew I did. But since learning that I still do, he’s acting kind of hurt.
He has a stressful job with long hours, and school at night on top of that. He is tired and usually unable to be intimate. And when he is able, he isn’t always willing to “go the extra mile” to make me feel great. In truth, I can do this better for myself (but that isn’t the message I’m trying to send to him).
He said that masturbation takes away from what we have together. That could be true for him, but I’m always ready. There’s plenty of energy left in me -- he just cannot deliver enough.
Am I wrong to do this? Should I expect enough sex from him to keep me satisfied?
