To dislike my husband masturbating in bed?

I was woken last night by the bed shaking and my husband heavy breathing. I asked him WTF he was doing and he said ‘just trying to get comfy in bed’ however it was clear he was wanking next to me while I slept. There have been other episodes where I’ve been woken up and thought ‘is he…?’ but never been sure until last night.

I haven’t said anything to him yet but have been thinking about it all day. He has a higher sex drive than me and I know this frustrates him, but AIBU to find it a bit gross and disrespectful?

You should join in, one way or the other. Make mutual wanking a regular event. Great turn on to watch each other and talk about it.

Call him a wanker and go back to sleep 🙂

I honestly don't see the problem. It's his bed too, and you were sleeping. But you're bound to get support. People on here seem to think men should hide away in the bathroom like teenage boys.

What happened to posh wanks? Not Victoria but where the man supposedly wanks into a condom.

Man;s gotta do what a man;s gotta do. Don't have a penis myself but understand they have 'hydraulics' and need some relief/pressure releasing every so often.

Probably as inconvenient as having tits and periods. 6 of 1 and all that.

I’d join in 😁

Absolutely same I’d find this quite the turn on!

I don't see the problem. Maybe he couldn't sleep and a wank would help. Checking with your partner before you have a wank is a bit grim.

They're not having sex. He's wanking beside his sleeping wife. You have incredibly low standards.

Or quite possibly you are just very odd? Bed is a perfectly normal place to masturbate.
