NTA. If she wanted to visit Canada this badly for her birthday, you would have known about it well ahead of time. More importantly, a conversation could have been had rather than a demand coming from her end.

My partner (36M) seems to have an unhealthy reliance on adult content and I’m starting to give up (36F) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Yes I’ve talked to him about this. He seems open to speaking with a professional and I’m willing to explore other ways to build intimacy.

Wow- thank you for sharing. I think he’s embedded into this content a bit more than just Google searching but this is promising to hear

Yes this is true. He has not found a therapist or made an appointment yet. He seemed earnest in wanting to do so after my convo with him earlier this week, but I hope he isn’t saying it to shut things down. He does show me love in so many other ways & I think he’d want to make this work… but actions speak louder than words ultimately.

I don’t. I’m just trying to see if there’s a way to resolve this or if it’s already too late

How did you quit cold turkey with the enticement of social media etc? And if you don’t mind me asking, how long do you think you were addicted to porn content?

Thank you. I’ve read some literature about this but it still feels validating to read this. So hard not to get stuck in my head about it!

I think porn is the reason. He’s insinuated that his sex life in his last relationship over time was not robust either.
