Why Do I Feel Guilty When I Masturbate but Not When I Have Sex?

Question by biomedic78: Why do I feel guilty when I masturbate but not when I have sex?
I am a heterosexual male. When I’m not getting laid regularly I masturbate and feel guilty about it afterwards. I feel like I have offended God and then I get depressed and it’s a downward spiral. I start thinking about how crapy everything is and get into a funk. However, when I have sex regularly, I don’t masturbate so I don’t feel guilty for that. I don’t feel guilty about having premarrital sex either. Everything seems great until I realize I don’t like the relationship anymore and want out. That’s never fun and if it takes a while to start a new relationship, it’s back to masturbation and depression. What gives?
