Is it possible to avoid masterbation or nocturnal emission if you aren't married ?

[Doubting Thomas]

If you're feeling horny, just grab your spouse lol. It's much better than masturbation anyway.

That's assuming she's in the mood or can be convinced to get into the mood.  My wife has anxiety issues and takes medication for it, so that's a double whammy.  Not interested to begin with because of the anxiety, then the medication kills what little sex drive she used to have.

I'm sorry to hear that, Thomas.   I hope she can get better.

Two options here:

• Premarital sex, in which case, you won't need to do either if you somehow manage to do it as many times as you'd need to masturbate (which requires you having an unusually low sex drive or your partner having an unusually high one)
  
• Be one of the relatively few men who don't really have much of a sex drive to speak of, in which case, you'll probably get nocturnal emissions involuntarily.
  
• Masturbate, and you'll get rid of nocturnal emissions if you do it often enough.
  

That said, I really have to ask why you want to avoid masturbation. Are you doing it constantly or at inopportune times? Do you find yourself doing it in front of other people who don't want to see it? Then what's the problem?
