Is masterbating to pictures of a girl your seeing a loophole?

Yeah don’t take that bait man.

As a woman, I think its always better to not do it because it shows your respect to that woman you're seeing. And of let's say that girl has a lot of self respect and confidence, doing something like that will make her feel the opposite of flattery. If anything, it'll create a bigger distance between both of you. If both of you really treasure the relationship you have right now, its always better to build that proper foundation first before going any deeper. That way, both of you can maintain an healthy relationship first and create a more enjoyable and intimate sex when you guys do end up together! Im sure you've got this! Hang in there, I'm cheering for you!

This is your addict brain looking for any kind of excuse to masturbate. Porn or not you are still feeding the core urges. Try and focus your sexual and mental energy into your relationship rather than pixels on a screen.
