I'm happily married, and me and my husband have a great sex life, when we're together. But he's often away from home for work, and often overseas.
During our marriage our sex life has been great, with us both having high libidos when we are together. When separated we keep in touch where possible, but this is sometimes hard with time differences.
Recently my libido has been higher, and it's at a time when he's away from home. I would never cheat on him, but I find myself masturbating more to keep myself in check.
For others who've experienced something similar, did you feel guilty at spending more time satisfying your own desires? Does fulfilling your own needs make things better in the long run?
