Does this mean that fantasizing and reading racy materials are also a basis for an unhealthy relationship?If you are unhappy in a relationship and you avoid the confrontation and look elsewhere for gratification are you an addict?

My problem is my husband loves porn and watches it just prior to our going to bed, he quickly changes the channel thinking that I didn't see,but I do. This upsets me greatly if he needs to watch porn prior to making love to me then who is he really with. I feel totally turned off and hurt by this, he has no real answers.Plus purchases toys and proceded to take them with him out of state while on another job. I confronted him,he showed that they hadn't been opened, but why take them, never even mentioned using them with me, which I don't like them anyway but what do I do from here, he will be home in a couple of weeks. Really concerned. He wants sex nightly without the forplay I need , I am just to be ready when my legs hit the sheets,this we have discussed to no avail. Worried and scared.

I'm not in this situation, but, it would be more of a problem, if my b/f tried to hide it from me. If he tries to sneak or hide the fact, that he's watching porn, then, deep down he KNOW's that it's wrong. Let me know your watching, don't be sneaky, also ASK me to watch with you, then I'll know that it's me that he's thinking of when he watches. To the comment above, "phandera:" Is the toys that he purchase's toys that help him masturbate, "get off?" If so, don't worry, thats just for his own human needs. Talk with him about having more foreplay, and DEMAND that he touches you and carress's you for a certain amount of time before sex. Also make sure that he gives you oral "down there" that helps alot.

I've been dealing with this situation for years now and honestly have had enough. My husband has profiles on numerous dating sites, protraying himself as single; has even dated a few of them (my job requires me to be away a every other month), has collections of phone numbers, pictures of women in various poses, etc, etc. He hides what he's doing when I enter the puter room. He says he loves me and wants only me, yet he won't stop regardless even when I tell him it's degrading to our marriage, disrespectful of me, etc his actions are. I tell him he's addicted to women and cybersex. I don't believe or trust him anymore - enough is enough!

Hello I had this experience with my boyfriend, for more than 2 years I suffered i couldn't stop his addiction with cybersex, he came almost everynight at 4 oclock in the morning and later on he even cheated me with some women. Whenever i told him i will leave u he stopped for some days and afterwards back again to his daily routine. He even put his naked picture on one of the sites and that one was the end.we left each other he became impotent i couldn't stand all that and we finished our 7 years of relationship. i am hoping maybe with my experience i can help someone.

I was with a man for 3 years who would spend hours on the internet having cybersex, it hurt and eventually i couldnt be in the relationship any more. It ruined our sex life , we would have sex but after he would have to masterbate to have an orgasim, he couldnt have one normally with me. if you are in somthing like this run far away, and remember its not your fault. I thought it was my fault for a while until i learned otherwise.
