I've mostly been doing it to indulge into fantasies I've had but find hard to satisfy with other things like erotic literature or such, and the place I heard about it was Twitter first, so I've been doing it there. I didn't think of that honestly, depersonalising it. I've tried to keep it mostly limited to those role-playing fantasies, and not much more. Would come, have a chat with someone and then leave without much more interaction. There's only one person so far who I would consider in a loose term a friend, but even then is mostly acquaintence. I guess depending on who I meet I am open to something more, but haven't really tried it. I have another objectivist friend who told me that he would consider this inmoral, saying I'm trying to replace a real life need, having a partner with a virtual fantasy and sometimes I wonder if I am really doing that, so I try to remind myself when I chat that I'm trying to just indulge into a fantasy. Not sure if it's having the opposite effect

1. Because if I feel the need to relieve myself sexually I prefer masturbation, since revealing myself to a stranger (as in physically doing it) feels like I'm exposing something too private to someone else and would just left me feeling bad about myself aftwerwards. 2. I don't have troubles speaking to people who I find sexually attractive, just a lot of the time that attraction ends when speaking to a lot of them, so it feels extremely shallow a lot of the time. 3. I don't know anyone at the moment who would interest me enough to consider dating. Well, I guess that could be an issue if I were trying to replace actual sex with those. What sort of psychological issues do think can arise from that? I don't like watching porn or nudes from real people, since I don't like pornography, as in, actual people performing sexual acts on video or photos. I condemn anyone doing such a thing because it's a violation of their integrity, and sex is more intimate than that on my view, so it would be a bit hypocritical to watch that while also condeming the people who do it.

So as of late, I've been getting involved in sexual roleplays online in twitter, where each person, usually avoiding any personal information like name, face, etc, plays a fictional character and create a erotic narrative. And I've been wondering: is this inmoral? Am I evading reality in any way doing this? The reason I'm doing it is because it allows me to explore certain fantasies without having to go and try causal sex which I'm completely against. I also know that is merely fantasies, I am not commending the fantasies I'm participating in, I know the difference between a fantasy and actually having intercourse. Also, I'm single and currently unable to find a partner, but I still want some form of variety in my masturbation. However, actually doing this sort of activity has felt weird since I started, since one thing is being alone in my room with images and such (I cut pornography, but I still use literotica and erotic drawings) and chatting with someone over kinks. Again, I've always made sure to keep these sessions purely fantasy, never agreeing to show any personal information neither asking for nudes from anyone, merely interested in roleplaying the fictional characters. What do you guys think? Is this a healthy aid to masturbation or am I doing some form of evasion? It's been eating me for a while now and I'm constantly thinking about it
