The prohibition of wasting semen

Question

I'm not married so I wanna know how often is allowed to ejucate sperm I like it pretty much but I don't know how often I'm not doing it with a girl

Answer

The prohibition against 'wasting semen,' i.e., ejaculating outside of intercourse, is extremely severe. There is no permission to engage in such activity whatsoever, and it does not make any difference whether the man is married or single.
