In reality, masturbation doesn’t cause you to desire your partner less. In fact, it can cause your sex drive to increase substantially, especially over time. When your body gets more sexual stimulation, it naturally wants more stimulation. Masturbation can be an incredibly healthy way to increase your desire for your partner.
