omg, this is SO normal! i mean, i'm not married, but i AM in a long term relationship, and yep, we both masturbate, sometimes together, often apart, and sometimes my partner is the star of my fantasies, but as often, she's not, and visa versa, and really, it's all part of a healthy sex drive. i'd be more worried if you DIDN'T masturbate, to be honest. hope this helps.
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Yeah, this is totally normal. I'm married and I masturbate quite often. My husband works a lot of late nights, and well..I gotta kill time somehow.

and anyways, i imagine your husband masturbates from time to time, i mean really, all healthy males do, even if they are embarrassed to talk about it! it's normal! this is why porn/smut/erotica exist - i mean, really, people read the stories here for any other reason?

Love yourself enough to make yourself feel good.

All our Ladies are spot on right!!
Loving ourselves is important. And, what's good for the boys (and most men I know masturbate regularly regardless of being in a relationship or not) ... is good for us!!
ok ... maybe I am a bit of a hedonist - but it feels so good!!

When I was married, I masturbated all the time. It is perfectly normal and healthy. You need to know your body and what makes you feel good in order to communicate that to your partner.
And now that I am in a relationship again, I still masturbate all the time. Sometimes we masturbate together.
Nothing wrong with a little fantasy and enjoying your own body!!

Coming from a married male, it's perfectly normal! My partner knows it turns me on and we often do it together. In fact we were in a long-distance relationship for quite sometime and often masturbated over the phone. Again, I think it is perfectly fine and normal. On the other hand I do know of people who believe that because you are in a relationship or married that you shouldn't/or don't have to because you can have intercourse.

I'm married and I masturbate all the time. Although in my case it's out of necessity. lmao

I actually know a couple who think masturbation is cheating. LOL

I know someone very very well that thinks masturbation is cheating. It's really a dumb notion.

Judging by the responses - I guess you see the general idea that it is totally normal
But anyway, just to add to the majority - it is normal to do that
And good fun too

Yes. Being with another doesnt make them repsonsible for each and every single orgasm you experience, at least for me it doesnt. Hope you find the right sollution for you.

Mutual mastubation with someone OTHER than your partner - now that in my eyes would constitute cheating. Otherwise, I agree, not cheating, and normal.

I recall a memory when I was married, I turned myself on in bed while my hubby was sleeping ha ha. I nearly had a heart-attack everytime I thought he was gonna wake up LOL. I didn't want sex; I needed to get off on my own fingers that night.
I remember a few moments like HoneyBee's .... very erotic in some ways.
The sounds of wetness in a quiet room, hearing him breathing and having NO idea!!

I am married and have a super sexual relationship with my man. I think it is super other may not. No way does this relationship eliminate the need and desire to explore and know my body. As that smart Nikki703 says.
I do not masturbate every day, but certainly most days and then there are days when it seems like I spend most of the day pleasuring myself. Not true but a good part of the day anyhow. My guy has no problem with it infact he rather enjoys watching me masturbate.
Why would anyone who loves you want to take this pleasure away from the woman in his/her life?

I have been married 10 years and still masturbate on a regular basis. My husband encourages me to explore my body. In my case I find it helps me greatly with staying comfortable in my own skin and knowing myself sexually. Getting lost within ones body while fantasizing is also a great tension and stress reliever.
Very normal! Before I came to Lush I never understood why my husband would masturbate all the time and not just come to me to fulfill his needs, it use to stir up some terrible fights between the two of us. Now that I've become more open to understanding his need to masturbate, I'm also comfortable fulfilling my own needs and desires and love the freedom of not feeling ashamed or guilty about pleasing myself. Now we discuss masturbation often, he even took me to purchase a new toy this week, something he has never done! Now, I just need to get him to be comfortable masturbating together. One step at a time!

Just to provide another male perspective, yes it is important to be comfortable with your sexuality in marriage......masturbation alone or with your partner can be very satisfying!

As Woody Alan says "Don't knock masturbation, it's sex with someone I love"... I am very happily married, and I masturbate most days
