It is quite literally easier to masturbate than to take the risk of putting yourself out there and getting laid or finding a girlfriend. I've had sex before, could have sex again, but in truth I am too consumed with anxieties to jump through all the hoops necessary to make that happen. Meanwhile, I could just watch porn and get that dopamine hit and then not have to worry about it for a while.

This way of thinking can feel so convincing but it is wrong. I have to do everything in my power to outwit the guy in me that wants to take the easy path and just jack off instead of going on a date.
