Can you use a toy too much?

I hadn’t used any toys before but during Covid, as me and my boyfriend don’t live together, I bought myself a dildo and vibrator to try. I wasn’t expecting too much but found I really enjoy using them and I probably use them most days now, especially my vibrator.

My boyfriend knows I have them and says he doesn’t mind but thinks I should use them a bit less. I know there is no limit really on using toys but am I getting too much of a good thing and should I cut back a little on them?

Use them as much as you want if they make you happy :slightly_smiling_face:
The only thing I would say is that sometimes you can over use something to a point where it is no longer enjoyable, if this starts to become the case have a break for a while, aside that play as much as you want.

As above - use them as often or as little as you feel the need to.

You can be desensitised to certain sensations and repetitive use of one or two toys may reduce the impact they have on you - but the easy solution to that is to buy more and experiment with different options, rather than to just stop using toys altogether.

That said - I’d never have the courage to dare to suggest to the wife that she uses her wand less. I’m honestly not that brave. :thinking: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy:

As long as not coming between you and he’s left out as you’re going solo then I wouldn’t worry :slightly_smiling_face:

Is it like using a deep fryer too much? A microwave? Your car? I love cooking things and driving places, but using a deep fryer can get a little boring. Hop on a bike instead of driving… you may miss your car again when you’ve walked somewhere or it’s raining outside.

Switch it up and have a few more tools in the toolbox!

Same! I don’t think my wife’s Hitachi wand is up for discussion. :grinning:

We got together when we were younger so I’ve always known and seen that she likes to masturbate frequently, much more than I need to. She’s used vibrators for about 15 years and it’s obvious her wand gives her amazing orgasms. It’s probably not a daily thing for her but not far off so if you enjoy this I would say carry on enjoying it.

Some really strong wands like the doxy at max power, regularly, can seemingly desensitise clits (and most certainly other areas too I’m sure) from what I’ve read. No personal experience here, beside confirming that they’re incredibly powerful.

It makes sense, white fingers is a recognised strong vibrations exposure RSI. No reasons it couldn’t happen to our more private parts.

Not being the most switched on person on the planet, was that question directed to me? Or did you use my comment as a reference?

Enjoy, let your oh to join in using them

Too much in what sense? I have realized that orgasms are not as intense and don’t come as quickly if I use my toy every day. I use the toy regularly but I’m a gentle user and the the little tab stopper thingy that plugs into the USB port has completely fallen apart.

If you don’t live together, its clearly not getting in the way of sex involving the both of you, so I don’t get his issue? If you want to have at it daily or more, so be it. If his drive is lower where he doesn’t masturbate as often as you, thats fine, but everyone is different.

Do you phone/video chat during your use? That could be one way to help him feel included.

not if you go ‘rechargeable’

I personally can’t use things like bullets or wands too much otherwise I’m numb for hours after.

As for sex, me and OH love using them during sex. Toys solo are fun but never has fun as the real thing.

As long as you don’t choose them over in person 1 to 1 time with your other half (OH) or keep asking to use them repeatedly during your time that should be fine.

I have some great sex toys I use solo and I like watching porn which my wife knows and doesn’t mind but would always prefer sex and sex fun time with her over toys.
