How to avoid jacking off?

I can go long without it, but my sex drive builds so high. Then I fall back to it. I don't masturbate cuz I like it, I do it cuz I want sex, but I don't have a girl who means enough to me to share tht experience with so instead of giving my first to someone who isn't the love of my life, I take the path of masturbation. Because I feel I must because I start to feel tht I will explode without any stimulation. I do kno a girl who I wud make love to, but y'all kno the situation wit tht from my other q's plus I'm too young to b a dad. But I don't wanna fall to my urge to have sex yet, but I don't wanna fall to jackin off cuz its a waste of valuable time. I do it to replace sex but I might as well not lie to myself, I am a virgin but ik sex feels wayyyy better. So I'm still losing. So im ready to b done with jackin off. I jus don't kno how to let it go tho. Without havin sex, which im not quite ready for.

my experience is that its very hard to stop, you will need very strong faith to stop jacking off and most of us don't have so much faith. so just jack off and don't feel guilty about it today. then start to hang out with people more. The more you hang out with people the less you feel like you want to jack off, also the more social you become and the more likely you will meet a girl. if you want to study, study in a library where there are others around you. work out. Just remain with people at all time, join a few organizations, possibly fraternities but moderate your alcohol consumption when you do that. keep yourself busy. Once you are alone in a room for a long time, its almost impossible to fight the urge to masturbate, so don't fight the urge then, just let go and jack off but then reschedule your week so as to spend as less time as possible alone in your room. just sleep in your room if possible and leave it as soon as you are up.

I think everything you're feeling is normal for someone your age. I think you are very wise to postpone sex as long as you can. As long as you can take care of all of your responsibilities and maintain a healthy social life with your family and friends, then you're fine. When I was in high school, I did it often... as in nearly every night if I wasn't too busy or at my grandmother's house ('cause that was just weird).

Masterbating is normal. My boyfriend and I have sex all the time but we still masterbate together. Trust me the feeling from sex is almost the same as when you masterbate.
