most ( not all) young men develop this addiction during adolescence

many men ( shhhhh I know this is a secret) continue to do this

after marriage


if he is only doing this and not wanting to be intimate with you
then I would recommend couples counseling



Can this addiction go away? Or is it there for the long haul?


Can a drug or alcohol addiction go away? Porn is an addiction that can be life controlling just like drugs or alcohol. Does he prefer Porn and self gratification over being with his wife? If so then it's a major addition and needs professional help and will always bet there.


I have to agree with you there. This is an addiction that unfortunately he refused help. I did end up leaving him. I tried talking, I tried adventure with him but there was never resolve. Can not help someone who isn't willing to get help.

Shouldn't you ask him that question ? His answer may surprise you .,... you are his wife .. There should be nothing that you cannot talk to him about . My thought would be ... Perhaps you have no interest in watching porn so he doesn't want to bother you ... Perhaps there is something he gets from watching porn that he does not get with you .. How adventurous are you ... You don't need to answer that lol . Just food for thought . Best of luck in finding the answer you seek :-)


This is the most thoughtful answer so far.

The thing is, that sex is both a part of a love relationship, and it's a metaphor for the overall relationship at the same time.

There's all sorts of differences between porn and a live subject, if you just think a tiny bit. Porn doesn't have to be in the mood, it doesn't have to cooperate, it doesn't ask questions or challenge anything you do with it, it doesn't care if your approach was thoughtful and romantic enough, and more than anything else with newly weds, it doesn't symbolize the end of childhood freedom, or the imposition of adult responsibility on the participants.

In short, there are tons of obvious and less obvious psychological reasons why some relationships' sexual component isn't what each person desires, and usually addiction of some kind is LAST on the list of probable causes.

Sex reflects the overall relationship, and not just as a barometer of desire. If your relationship is built of mismatched fantasies about what marriage is supposed to be, that will show up as problematic sex. If you don't communicate well about the more general aspects of marriage, that's probably true of your sexual relations as well.

Finally, the simplest thing about dealing with your partner masturbating, is the most basic psychology of all. If it offends you, and you get upset with them for it, that means you are telling them that you don't like THEM, as a person, for who they really are.

You want someone else.

And I can tell you as someone who has been male for over sixty years now, the absolute WORST way to get me interested in having sex with you, is to communicate that I'm a stand in for the "REAL MAN" you actually had in mind.


By far...a great answer. I suppose at this point is whether or not I can live with this. Sadly it consumed my soul and I had to get out.

I want to thank everyone for their points of view. Everyone brought something to the table to help me think this through. Most if not all the suggestions were done. I feel I tried so hard to understand and work through this from many angles. In the end... my heart and soul were consumed with sadness. I just simply could not take it anymore. It is who I am.

If a guy whacks off to porn while married or with a g/f, in my opinion, it means he's not getting what he needs from his partner, either not enough, not often enough or not good enough.
Now, I read that a man's sexual satisfaction shouldn't depend on his partner, that a healthy 'male' doesn't resort to porn to get his kicks and that a woman shouldn't debase herself to serving her man's sexual needs, that if he's a "real man" he should be happy with the little she allows him to have and shouldn't look at other women even if he hadn't had sex - GOT LUCKY - for months on ends because "love conquers all" and "true soul mates don't need sex to be happy".
I also read that a man should already consider himself LUCKY to have a woman, no matter if she allows sex in the bedroom or not.

So let's recap all that:
Women demand their men to be ready to have sex when they're ready, or he has a problem (several problems in fact).
Men should feel lucky if a woman even looks at them.

I've seen that in general, relationships that go down hill and die a more or less unnecessary death, can do so because of an unfortunate SEQUENCE of events, made worse due to the chance ordering of personal lessons learned or taken from experiences with themselves and each other.

That's a complicated thing to say, but what it comes down to, is that it can start with something LIKE this scenario.

It can even be entirely NON sexual elements of life, which set things in motion. One wants to do things the other doesn't, or is simply AFRAID that the other wont want to, so they hold back. That can lead either or both, to resentment by the one holding back, or to suspicion or fear by the one who senses that the other is holding back.

Each of those reactions in turn, cause each person to make more decisions and choices, that add to, rather then reduce the tensions and distances between them. Unless one or both have come to see such tensions as normal, disappointment can set in, and each may unconsciously react by raising, rather than lowering their expectations of "how married life ought to be."

It can finally reach the point where communication and respect for each other is so poor, that the marriage just can't go on.

It's not really either person's FAULT, in the sense that they willfully chose to build walls between themselves and the other. It's that the solutions of the moment which they did choose, owing to how far along in self knowledge they were, happened to be the decisions which caused the OTHER partner to lose interest and faith in them, because THEY were at whatever stage of understanding that they were at the time.

And of course, it's quite possible that one or the other person really is a "jerk," so to speak. Pun intended.

And why are you so on the 'men need defense' path? Guess you got hurt in the past and not got over it.
It's pretty simple: If a man has a willing partner and can't be bothered to have sex with her, yet cannot stop wanking off over porn, there is something wrong with him.
Nice and easy to blame it on the woman -rather old-fashioned too, been that way for centuries: When things don't work for a man, blame woman. When a man doesn't get boys, but girls only, blame woman. If a man can't get it up, blame woman. And so on and so forth.
Might be news to you, but men aren't perfect. They have flaws. If he has a sex addiction, woman is not to blame for it. Period.

You apparently have issues with my opinion. I'm not sorry that my views offend you, they should. You are a woman and we are NOT the same. We're not even equal as you have more privileges than I do. Like the privilege of throwing insinuations at me without worrying about being perceived as sexist or a jerk, even if I FEEL you are.
I do have an unalienable right that you cannot take away tho, and that's the right to think whatever I please.
Period.
You may now call the Thought Police if you like but I doubt they'd do anything.

Can somebody tell me why a young guy needs to whack off to porn instead of having sex with his new wife?


Because sometimes guys have fantasies and there is no way their wives will live them out with them so they resort to porn. That is just my opinion.

I agree with you.
Most women couldn't care less about what would please their man in bed. Most have no idea, not a clue. They're much too preoccupied with their own pleasures and pampering and can you blame them? All their lives they've been told that women matter more than men, that somehow they're more valuable than men : Women And Children First, right?
Over thirty years of having sex with women and not ONE has ever even asked what I wanted in bed, if I was satisfied or how she could do more to please me.
Men are often left with the sometimes stressing option of trying impose while praying she won't smack the hell out of him - or worse, call it rape.
We often hear how a guy fails to bring an orgasm to a woman, while it is clinically proven that most women have orgasms issues, but as soon the conversation turns to a man's pleasure it quickly degenerates into some hilarious sidestepping - or worse - a demeaning lecture, as if a man's sexual pleasure has become taboo but for some lame jokes only idiots may laugh at, in a society where certain individuals can claim to be BOTH male and female.
I'm so glad that the music which women try to force men to dance on is so obvious and in our face. That tune has woken many men to their denigrated state of existence in this new society over the past 20 years and I dare say it has helped many to stand up and be counted as men, not boys or sorry excuses for men.

I understand what you are saying and did give it great thought. Unfortunately, our problem has existed since the beginning and I chalked it up to his inexperience. After all this time, I can now look back and see that this indeed is an addiction and it existed before I did.

I heard that some guys can get addicted to porn to the point of having it substitute for their partner and being in the situation with someone like that must be miserable. My earlier comment wasn't directed at your past partner specifically. I meant that in a much broader, generalized sense but I stand by my statement even if it's not popular or doesn't describe your situation.
Many men are not sexually satisfied in the couple's bedroom because men aren't encouraged to talk about their sexuality and women are encouraged to admonish them when they do. It's become almost taboo while men's sexual satisfaction has taken a back seat to women's sexual liberation, a subject plastered on billboards at almost every street corner. Many people, including most women, prefer to ignore that than to debate the issues facing Masculinity nowadays.
Ignoring the problem or pretending it isn't true isn't going to make it go away and blaming every couple's sexual problems on the man and porn is only going to drive a bigger wage between the genders while spreading yet another lie about a condition that may only affects 5% of men
