Question
Hi, what if I made a promise to God but did not go through with it? I made a promise never to masturbate and did it anyways, I am really sorry, what should I do?

Answer
Go to a traditional priest for confession and follow his spiritual advice.  If you don't have a traditional confessor, see the listing at http://www.traditio.com/tradlib/masslat  That site lists the hundreds of Traditional Masses all over the United States and Canada.  You don't have to settle for the New Order nonsense you find at parishes.
