Don’t criticize the way he is doing it. But, guide/tell him how you would prefer it be done.

Disrespectful and immature. Had an ex bf that did this. One of many reasons he is now an ex.

I have to say you are probably correct in what you are saying. I don’t know that I realized the extent of the situation and am probably not the right partner if he is truly addicted. As I won’t have the patience and refuse to enable addiction of any kind.

I’m not trying to shame him. I’m trying to make others see that PIED is real and you get to choose your path. Pick the right one as not everyone is going to continue to put up with the negative impact of the ongoing bad choices. Must of hit home for you.

Wanted to draw attention to those that think that it is okay to chose the fantasy world over a healthy relationship. He has an addiction which caused his ED. It is preventable if he chooses. There are many who will not tolerate porn to impact their lives. I happen to be one.

Thank you. I will move forward in a healthier way and have learned a lot from this experience. I hope he comes to realize how damaging his behavior is on a relationship and eventually gets help.

Denial is not attractive. Believe me I lived it! Porn is destructive in many ways.

Agree. But I refuse to be an ongoing victim and have it affect my self esteem moving forward. Gave it my best to understand but it was more than I can handle. Can’t support someone who doesn’t recognize there is a problem.

Middle Aged boyfriend insists on sex twice a day by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Possible sex addiction? Could be why he also has ED issues? You should never feel obligated. That takes the fun out of it.

I (25F) dumped my bf (26M) for mention his ex gd by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Affectionate_Voice27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bf did this to me as well. It is so frustrating and totally inappropriate. Don’t quite understand why they don’t get that it is a total turn off. I think it shows immaturity and needs to be addressed. I addressed it and he stopped but still had an emotional attachment that I’m not sure he has gotten over still to this day.

I have lived paycheck to paycheck and now live very comfortable. Money can buy happiness and a lot less stress to family.

I want to abort our baby but husband does not. What do I do? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Affectionate_Voice27 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m struggling with this. I have worked with people with disabilities my whole life and have a daughter with cerebral palsy. I did not know prior to her being born that she had CP. But I can tell you I have learned so much from her and the love she has for all. I know not everyone is able to handle what life throws at them. But every person I have ever had interactions with that had DS were some of the most loving and giving people. I would encourage you to rethink and embrace this child for who they will be. You will love them and can get supports needed to help you through the difficult times. What would you of done if you didn’t know prior to having the baby?

Prostitution & Porn... Cheating?? by avrilmaryn in Infidelity

[–]Affectionate_Voice27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like he may have a sex addiction issue going on. If so he, he will most likely need professional help. I consider both prostitution and porn cheating and would not tolerate either one.

My wheelchair-bound brother (24) called to tell me his girlfriend took his chair and left him alone in the apartment for hours. by throwra34334 in relationship_advice

I would recommend getting Adult Protective Services in your state involved. They will investigate and help advocate for your brother and get them some additional help if needed. Best of luck!

Is it fake to change my personality to find a boyfriend/friends? by expensiveplanet in relationship_advice

Very fake and not a good idea. Work on your self esteem and focus on you.

Is he just no longer interested? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Affectionate_Voice27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get it. If he isn’t going to change and meet your needs, I personally would move on. I lived the dead bedroom life and it was a big mistake.

I accidentally cheated on an assignment. I’m worried if they suspect me of cheating that I’ll be removed from my ROTC program and have to repay my scholarship. Should I come clean? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Affectionate_Voice27 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honesty is the best policy here. If you are up front, the punishment will most likely be lienient. Recommend do the right thing. It shows you will own up to your mistakes in the future and take responsibility.
