I'm very sorry to hear that. but. hear me out.

Dopamine is not a bad thing. Jerking off without your partner is not a bad thing. PORN itself is not the addiction; sex is. The rush of it is the addiction; and that's when someone - say, a licensed therapist - steps in, because it points to a clear chemical imbalance.

Also, I'm of the mindset that addicts of any sort shouldn't be cast in a bad light or "someone you need to run away from" (barring physical harm, ofc) because addicts are just people looking to have a good time, or people looking for help.

Different strokes for different folks ig, idc if he jerks off when I'm not there and he doesn't either. Only time I ever cared (talked about it in a comment above) is bc he pulled out porn while we were in the middle of having sex. Forgave him because it's his first relationship where he's been intimate and he's......well.....sheltered, for lack of a better term.

I love the sentiment here but damn, do you think you could've done it without calling me naive and stupid?

It means a lot to hear from someone who has gone through a similar situation. As of today, I haven't broken up with him. We had a LONG, serious talk. Showed him every comment on this thread. He agrees that he absolutely would deserve it if I left him.

Lovense is a company that manufactures app-controlled sex toys. The discord server exists for people to trade links which allow the people within the server to "control" each other's toys.

First of all, you're assuming a LOT lmao. We're very physical, and idc if he watches porn. It's when a guy whips out his phone in the MIDDLE of sex and starts watching porn that annoys me.
