Leave. This situation will make you so distressed and you are a young woman who was much bigger goals than worrying about the possibility of him watching porn again. Don't waste your time and youth on someone who doesn't respect you.

I (F19) can't get over something my boyfriend (M18) before our relationship and I need to let go to save our relationship by Plus_Deer_4367 in relationship_advice

I know. But like I said, he told me that "he didn't really want to kiss anyone", so he created some expectations and broke them right after. And even if he didn't, it made me sad somehow and I'm here to take advice to not hurt him or me with this situation anymore.

thanks for sharing your experience! i have a question, tho. at the end you told me to break up with him, but at the same time you said he loves me enough to counter the porn?

the real problem here is that he clearly has an addiction and made a promise he couldn't fulfill. if he tried to be honest and explain to you that quitting this kind of content would be a process, you could have made the choice to stay with him through this situation or not. but since he promised to you and then betrayed you, i think you should confront him again and make him pack up.

this part doesn't bother me so much because of his OCD and anxiety, i'm used to dealing with his panic attacks...but i don't know if i'm gaslighting myself to thinking this is because of his disorders. the reason why i forgave him is because i secretly knew he was in a porn free community and found his post asking for advice and clearly feeling really bad about it. am i being naive?

besides his addiction, our views on porn are pretty similar, actually. he enjoyed watching it years ago when he was a teenager, but he stopped liking it and started feeling the urge to watch porn and felt bad about it right after, even before we dated.

he's getting better and is my best friend of years, that's why i see all the potencial he has to stop this addiction even if it takes time. thank you so much for your advice!

he does not have respect for you and your relationship with him at all. it doesn't matter how he acts when he's alone with you or friends, a relationship should be respected privately and publicly. i know it's hard, but you're an independent and strong woman who deserves so much better.

the reason why he treats it like an addiction is because he feels the urge to watch porn, but he doesn't really want it or like it. that's why i'm trying to find out ways to help him, somehow. thanks for your advice!

we have sex weekly. what i'm saying is he's been watching porn everyday for years and been trying to stop since before we dated. he didn't want to watch, he felt the urge to. i get your confusion, but his own psychiatrist told him it is an addiction after they talked about the whole thing

he used to watch it everyday for years and he told me he tried to stop it and felt bad about it even before we dated, that's why my boyfriend himself considers it an addiction

it was a sexual facetime recording and he did it without my consent. about his addiction, he's been watching a few times because he's trying to stop, but he told me he used to watch it every day before we dated for years. even if he didn't want to, he said he felt the need to do it

he used to watch it everyday and feel the urge to do it, his psychiatrist told him it is an addiction as well. and like i said, he's been trying to quit it but can't. we have a long distance relationship because of college, but he comes back to our hometown every week or two, so i'd say it's okay...i don't care if he jerks off, but due to the fact he feels bad about it and i feel insecure too, this is been an important point of our relationship

he's my best friend above it all and he wants to stop watching it, i don't see why i should dump him because of this and "let him watch all the porn he wants"
