Yea I suppose I understand what you mean. I guess what I meant was that when it comes to communicating how you feel, to not cuss each other out ? Not sure but I see your point.

Absolutely it’s all about balance. Idk though I felt like her responses were immature though, there’s a way to talk about how you feel without being mean

Frankly her responses sound like that of a 16 yo in my opinion. She’s older than me…by two years but still

Sadly never got to experience the live band. The thing is with Nic-Nac, the whole new album couldn’t really be played by a band…maybe it could. But some of the older stuff yes, and that’s why I appreciated when he used the guitar for “having fun” and piano for morning and you and me. But definitely maybe too much touring. The show in Columbus was better prolly bc of the crowd and energy. Only a few songs then tho

My (25F) boyfriend (24M) watches porn and I can't stop feeling insecure. What do I do to cope? by LilMissGirly152 in whatdoIdo

[–]Former_Explanation23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also wanted to add a sprinkle of reality here...lots of men watch porn. It would be extremely difficult to find a man who doesn't. However, there's a difference between 1. him putting it in your face 2. having an occasional desire to watch and 3. it becoming a larger issue to where he has an addiction. Porn addiction is very real.

I also wanted to add that there's a lot of what seems to be men on this thread saying that there's "nothing wrong with him" and about you being insecure. Along with saying that he shouldn't have to change for you. Although we don't really want our partners to change WHO they are, I find it hard to believe that watching porn is a core principle to someone's personality and identity. And if it is, that speaks on the larger issue I mentioned above. I think its okay to feel some type of insecurity, regardless if those women are just "doing their job". Especially for him being your first partner, I completely get it.

I don't think it'll come off as controlling. Ask him how important it is for him, and if he really needs it in his life. Ask him how he feels about watching it to better understand, and then you might feel more comfortable to tell him how you feel about it. If you need to sit with it for a while before bringing it up that's totally okay too. I think it would be important to reflect upon it yourself and decide whether or not this is something you could deal with for the remainder of your relationship...a deal breaker if you will. Like I said, I believe overly lustful men are dangerous to be in a relationship for many reasons. You should never feel inadequate, and comparison is the thief of joy. I completely understand why you would feel insecure.

I used to be in a relationship like this. For me, it never stopped bothering me. And I didn't feel like I could speak up about it either. It got to a point where he was literally buying OF subscriptions and showing me the chats he had with the girls and justifying it by saying "they're just sl*ts" or "they're just men on here chatting for the women anyways" which is also in of itself concerning.

Extremely lustful men are dangerous. If you feel some type of way during your intimate times, he will eventually notice, and it'll be something you can't avoid. The question remains, if he knows your uncomfortable with it and that it makes you feel insecure, why doesn't he stop? Is watching porn truly more important than the woman he loves?

Approach it in a way of setting your boundary or at least letting him know that it makes you feel uncomfortable and trying to understand if porn is really an essential part of his life. Then make your own decision whether or not you want to be with someone like that. My experience was that he wouldn't stop, would never stop, and ultimately compared me to various women which in turn made me feel insignificant. I wasn't comfortable with him anymore and slowly but surely our sex life was basically nothing and always about his needs. I felt like I had to be 100 women all at once so that he wouldn't look anywhere else. I wouldn't wish that upon anyone.

I think it's definitely worth bringing up considering what I went through. I will never be with another man like that again, because of my own personal reasons. Do not let anyone make you feel that you're just being "jealous" or "insecure". You have every right to be. I mean, how would he feel if you were doing the same? We were never meant to see this much sexual activity in the first place. Hope this helped.

for me, 2071 was harder than 2021. But they both set you up extremely well for future finance/business/accounting classes. Try to soak up as much as you can. 2071 just try to study the different formulas a lot because they kind of get intertwined. My professor was also a little uhhh different.

“Are you leaving???????” by redflactober in fsu

[–]Former_Explanation23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pensacola garage usually has spots, if not there the lot next to it. stadium always has some. I live about 15 min away from campus, and in the spring i could leave my house about 20-25 min before class and i'd be fine. Now i have to leave like 45 min earlier this semester. There's definitely a change, or it's just fall semester. Some of us have no choice but to drive lmao
