What is masturdating?
The term masturdating was used for the first time in 2015, on the set of Conan O'Brien's Late Show. It's basically spending some quality time by yourself, and you do not need anyone else! You don’t need anyone else to have a drink out, or to go grab lunch in a nice little restaurant! The good thing about this practice is that you are the one who decides what to do. You don’t need to waste time finding a place that suits everyone, as you only have to worry about yourself. It's even better than nesting, which consists of staying home alone and watching movies all weekend.
Health benefits
The more you practice masturdating, the more you will feel fulfilled in yourself, which is completely logical since you are taking time for yourself. You do what YOU want to do, you do the things that make YOU happy. You are also more conscious of your own importance, which could make you more tolerant! Full of positive aspects that prove it's good to be a little selfish sometimes...
