What's wrong with gooning

Just to clarify: I'm a 25 year old male, I have a good full-time job, I exercise frequently and have legit hobbies/interests. I'm not a (complete) loser.

However, I LOVE gooning and masturbating (NOT watching porn) I discovered those 2 things about a year ago and have been hooked ever since. Before I started, I put a high level of value/interest in a women's looks when considering a potential GF. As I'm sure you're all shocked by, I have never had a girlfriend.

I don't think my overall views/attitudes towards women have changed since I started.

Also, if I wasn't gooning, I'd probably be spending that time watching TV or YouTube or playing video games.

if that's something you "love", i'd take that as a wake-up-call to make some sort of change. nobody should ever love to do something so self-destructive and primitive. Same goes for over-eating, drinking excessively, etc. Based on your attitudes towards it, nothing I or anyone else says will change your mind. All the best to you.
