How do you get in the mood to masturbate??

I’ve never orgasmed before and I think it’s because I’m never in the right mindset! I always try too hard and get discouraged after like two minutes if nothing happens 😣 I’m also never in the right mindset..how do YOU personally get yourself in the mood?

Also I am NOT into porn, don’t even wanna try watching it. I think I’d be too uncomfortable lol.

I’ve tried reading erotic stories but damn most of them are so cringey that I obviously can’t get off to them..

I’ve bought erotic poetry but that doesn’t do it. I wanna find a really good really well-written poetic and erotic story (any good recommendations are welcome!!) Because poems are too short, I’d love to read something erotic that’s not too graphic but very well written, and longer than a poem!!

Any tips on what gets you guys in the mood is much appreciated:)
