Has anyone experienced something similar with jealousy and sexual feelings?
I've noticed that I've sometimes connected sexual feelings with things like insecurity, comparing myself to other people, or jealousy.
For example, when I felt insecure about my appearance or compared myself to a friend who I thought looked better than me, those feelings could sometimes become connected to sexual behavior.
The confusing part is that I didn't actually want those people romantically or sexually, and I wouldn't want anything to happen with them in real life. It feels more like my brain somehow learned an association between certain emotions and sexual feelings.
I've tried searching for people with similar experiences, but I haven't really found anything that matches. Has anyone experienced something similar, or knows what this could be called?
Please comment, and even if you don’t relate you could at least tell me if this is like insane, I am quite worried
