When I was young(teen to mid 20’s) I jerked off dry. I didn’t have money for lube, didn’t have my own room either so nowhere to keep it. I jerked off dry until one day i was in CVS and was looking for something and saw the lube and said, fuck it I’m going to buy it to try out. That night i jerked off with lube for my first time in my life. FUCK what a difference! I would jerk off in the bathroom with soap when i showered but that would leave my cock super dry. I’ve used Astroglide, ID glide(my current WB lube), Über lube(silicone) works real good, I’ve used other lubes as well, some pretty damn pricey and didn’t feel any better than the cheaper lubes. I mostly use ID glide since it washes off easier than the silicone.
