When I thought of people with a porn addiction I imagined people fapping uncontrollably for hours alone in their parent’s basement.
I’m 33 and happily married and I was honestly convinced that the odd sneaky fap over NSFW Reddit subs was completely fine – at least that’s what I told myself I did. In reality, it was daily. Recently my wife brought to my attention that we hadn’t had sex in a month (we used to be like rabbits). I deleted my porn account immediately and resisted the effort to sneakily masturbate whenever I could.
The difference in my sex life is incredible. I look forward to making love to my wife at any opportunity, just like it used to be. I get excited and my heart beats faster just at the thought of it.
Casual, regular porn masturbation is a habit from my single days that I never stamped out when my relationship with my now wife got serious and we eventually got married. Over time it became so ingrained and I didn’t even think about doing it.
I suspect there are a lot of guys like me. I never questioned my habits, until it started to affect my sex life so much that my wife noticed something was up. If you’re married/in a stable relationship and you commit as much time to porn as I did, your relationship will suffer. Porn isn’t real fulfilment, stop it now and you will be amazed at how incredible a real life, intimate sexual relationship can feel.
