Changing masturbation style?

[AllyChaseBofa]

As mentioned in my prior posts, I was having trouble with erections and once I had an erection I was finding it difficult to orgasm. My masturbation technique is definitely the problem and the fact that I was stimulating myself at the tip of the penis and there was a cloth in between the hand and the penis is the issue. I am trying to change it by masturbating more form the base of the penis to give it a more realistic sensation as I would feel during sex, but I can't orgasm and it is frustrating. Anyone else had the same issue? I am thinking of buying a fleshlight. What would be closest to the original feeling of being within a woman's vagina.

Hello AllyChaseBofa,

As Char mentioned in your last thread, we can't make any recommendations on whether you should use a sex toy, or which one you should use--that really is up to you because we can't know how you will feeling. I'm glad to hear that you have a sense of what is causing your difficulties with orgasm and what you might change to help with the issue. Now, it is just a matter of giving yourself time to make that change and seeing what happens.
