It didn't help that I was very much introverted so I didn't know. Maybe if I was a little more "friendly and easygoing" I'd discover it earlier that other people do it too but yeah.
I like to think I'm the only person in the world who discovered it at a youngest age naturally, with no intervention from anyone whatsoever.
For now I'll just stick with jacking off which I've been doing for 20 or so years at this point. The cleaning part only started 10 years ago though.
I bet it feels good to experience sex for the first, especially with someone that loves you unconditionally, but eh. It helps to believe I'll never find that person. I can hope and but not expect at the same time. It cancels out and makes you think rationally and you're not totally closed to the idea
Nobody taught me and stuff. Really, just an itch down there.
I had no friends, I don't know those guys and I'm quite the introvert too so I just kept it to myself.
They'd prolly laugh at it or idk be amazed at it but yeah.
I don't think I'll get bored by jacking off anytime soon cos idk. It still feels good doing even today and I'm not really interested experiencing sex for the first time.
Back in highschool I can hear some guys talking about when they learned to masturbate and how often they do it.
I wasnt really near them but I can hear them. I heard some guys learned to do it with their friends, or online. Some even say they only learned it a few years ago.
I wish I could say I learned to jack off when I was around 3 - 4 years old cos really, it all started as an itch down there and the rest followed.
@wendynather @hosford42 I quite agree! I’ve been thinking it’s the Autism that leads me to social exhaustion and my ADHD that loops through all the things to remind me what went wrong. LOL
Whatever the combination, I agree these likely aren’t mutually exclusive. We experience both.
Mentioning #introversion is interesting as I ID’ed this way before Autism + ADHD diagnosis.Not mutually exclusive but overlapping signals.

The quiet after socializing isn't recovery from depletion — it's your brain running a complex sorting algorithm on every micro-expression, tonal shift, and unspoken tension you absorbed, and some of us simply have more data to process.
They don't know it, but this article is also about autism.

Wow, am I peopled out. I am only willing to acknowledge the dogs and maybe the microwave timer right now. Everybody else, it is gonna be a hard pass.
No TV tonight (people), no social media (people) no phone calls (my God, no). No music (people), no audible books ( no people's voices). No, I say no. No peopling. No people-ishness. Ixnay on the eople-pay.
Honestly, I get Luke Skywalker.
Für Introvertierte fühlt sich Freundschaft oft anders an, als es in der Gesellschaft erwartet wird.
