Perverted Thoughts

"Unfortunately I get bored a lot of the time."

"A girlfriend is out of the question for me. If I get one it only gives me less time to be doing the things I need to get done"


Pal, you're in high school. Do you have ANY IDEA of just how much free time you have right now?
See that first quote above? About boredom? Boredom doesn't exist with any regularity past high school. If you're 19 or older and still get bored frequently, you're either a 1 in a million supergenius, or you're doing something wrong. The boredom will stop happening frequently in a couple years.

Now, if you honestly don't want a girlfriend because you think you don't have time for one, here's a very straightforward answer for you: you're wrong. You definitely have time for a girlfriend right now. How can you say you get bored frequently, then turn around and say you don't have time for a girlfriend? High school relationships are NOT highly involved. I 100% guarantee that your life WILL get much, much busier in the years after high school, so I don't see how that's a good reason, unless you seriously plan on remaining a bachelor for your entire life. (not that you can expect a LASTING relationship to develop out of high school... which is why I didn't care for high school dating, myself).

And I know you're indignant about someone coming in here and telling you that you're not busy. You're probably saying to yourself "but I work hard for good grades and I have lots of homework and and I have lots of chores and I have to do lots of work for student group X and sports team Y." Don't worry... I hated hearing it too. But it's true: you're not as busy as you think you are. Seriously. You only get busier as time goes on.


But even with the girlfriend thing aside, your problem is simply your boredom. That's really all it is. There's no one or two special things you can do to prevent frequent masturbation... just fill up your schedule with ANYTHING. Student groups, after-school activities, academics, reading, videogames, art, working out, ANYTHING. Doesn't matter what it is, as long as it's INTERESTING for you, and stays that way.

Don't worry about it too much. The problem will likely go away soon after you're out of high school.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Good... that should make things easier. And there'll be even more interesting stuff to keep yourself busy with in college. Then your problem should be slightly lessened, and it'll be easier to get away from.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
