Hi guys, I am Phillip from Akamwesi hostel in Nakawa. I always heard people complaining about their roommates jerking off and it never bothered me, actually, I often laughed at such people because my roommate is a church boy and such is behavior he always detests but what he does behind closed doors, only God and I know.
He got his heart-broken not so many months ago and ever since then, he resorted to masturbating even after I warned him never to do that when I am around. It always disturbs me how Catholics discourage masturbation and encourage use of condoms.
A case of double standards? Yes. But unlike condom use, masturbation is addictive and I think my roommate is now addicted to the vice. His heartbreak was the devil that was in waiting, love was the devil’s advocate, talk about first cuts.
Last night, I went back to room pretty late and I was tired so I just fell on my bed and slept off. Late in the night, I heard a light moaning and gasp for air for I raised my head and there in the shadows he stood, jerking off.
The most disturbing part is that he has been doing this for a while now and every morning, I ask him if he had heard the noises at night, he assured me that the guy next door always has a different girl in bed.
I am tired of listening to these light screams at night when my subconscious is trying to help me figure my life out. He is a very good friend of mine, the kind that I have been with for 2 years straight in the same room and I don’t think I can stay with anyone else.
How do you stay with a person you can’t shake hands with?
What should I do?
