I used to masturbate regularly, about 3-4 times a week. A healthy amount, I'd say. But ever since my Mom and Dad have had a falling out, I don't much feel like it. It's like my level of arousal has just taken a nose dive. My body is there, but not my mind. It like I just can't muster up the energy to get in the mood anymore. There is just this feeling in the pit of my stomach that won't let me get there anymore. I haven't done it in about a week and a half, which is a long time for me.

I'm concerned because this isn't normal for me. That and I may or may not need to get in the mood with this Hungarian guy I talk to online. We haven't done anything together yet, but I want to get there, ya know?

I don't know. What hope is there for love when the very couple you're supposed to model your love life after, your parents, is having a tough time of it?
