My man masturbates in secret

Even if the situation may be surprising, don't worry, dear lady. Many men masturbate. Masturbation has a relaxing effect on them. Some men may even feel guilty towards their partner when they masturbate. In reality, it's simply an act of relaxation in response to a spontaneous urge.

However, masturbation can sometimes hide a sexual problem within the couple. The reasons can be varied.

The first step is to communicate and try to understand whether or not this behaviour is linked to a deeper problem. Men are often more stimulated visually than mentally, which is why, in the majority of cases, feelings of love are put aside during masturbation.

Ladies, it's important to know that men who don't masturbate while watching porn are the exception, not the rule.

It's also essential to note that most of the time, a man will always prefer to make love to his partner rather than masturbate. When this isn't possible (or if you don't feel like it), porn can play a role.

The "weird" feeling you had when you saw your husband masturbating was probably shared by him, because he was surprised. He too is going through different emotions and is wondering about you.

In most cases, it's important to put things into perspective and try to share your fantasies and urges openly as a couple. Only honesty and communication can avoid "embarrassing" situations, and in time you'll even be able to laugh about them together!
