My husband prefers porn to sex!?
I'm not opposed to all pornography; I watched my share as a teenager and college student, and knew that the man who's now my husband did the same thing. However, I used porn as a means to an end; as a virgin to "get release" and stay "virgin," and, once a sexually active adult, to "get release" when I was not in a relationship. When I'm in a relationship, I have no need for pornography; why watch people have sex when I can enjoy the fun myself? I compare it to watching sitcoms of people doing fun things instead of going out and living those experiences yourself.
We're married! I'm 24years old, tall, slim, attractive, and I've been married for just over a year. Some people still consider that a "newlywed!" However, my husband's porn habit is affecting our sex life. While I know real life gets tiring and we don't always have the energy to have sex, he has NO problem using energy to get out the bed early in the morning and masturbate in the living room to the computer...or when he gets out of school...or in the middle of the night. Would it be so hard to "tap my shoulder" so to speak and let me know of his needs?
I've tried lingerie, candles, stripteases, quickies, marathons, toys, massage sessions, public places, even had a "three's company" night over the course of our courtship and marriage. We've watched one or two flicks together. I'm neither prudish nor foolish, and I know men are visual creatures, so I stay in shape and handle my share of the domestic responsibilities while working full-time. We now have sex about once a week, sometimes once every two weeks because of my period, though I can check the computer history and see that HE has sex with the computer once a day.
I've spoke to him about it before, that he can have his porn as long as he doesn't neglect MY needs, but he isn't keeping his end of the bargain. He'll be too "spent" from his movie sessions to make love to me, and has been rejecting my advances lately. We have to be intoxicated in some way for him to want me. I can't tell him "don't watch porn at all" because he'll just sneak and do it anyway in an effort to spare my feelings. But I don't want to masturbate when I have a well-endowed husband.
Sex is more than the orgasm, it's the connection, the kisses, the laughter, the warmth. I get none of that with porn. So why would he prefer porn to a warm, sensual, WILLING woman?
Ladies, have you experienced this? Men, can you explain to me what the rationale is? What drives a man away from his wife and to a computer screen?

I am male, and this guy doesn't realize what he has in you if you do all the things you list here. It must be very frustrating doing all this and have him whacking instead: what a fool he is! This only a guess, but he can either be really lazy preferring to pop off by himself without having to go through the whole "event" ( does it have to be really complex with you, like a ritual that takes 2 hours?), or does he feel in order to make love with you he has to be perfectly clean and all his ducks in a row but the computer only requires a box of tissues. It seems to me he is more interested in the end rather than the sensual trip getting there. Hide his recharge cord, make a light dinner, soft music and candles and just keep it simple, maybe that is what he wants. MAYBE a sit down face to face talk with him and ask why he prefers 2D images over your 3D sexy body in person.

Men in relationships use porn because it's quick, easy, and not very messy. Real sex takes a while, uses a lot of energy, and then you have to worry about your partner "getting hers." Not to mention, if you do it right, you're probably gonna need a shower afterwards.
If it's affecting you this much, you need to talk to him. I'm sure he wouldn't mind servicing you in lou of one of his porn times.

yes very well put. one does not get that with porn. he gets something entirely different, that leaves a powerful unique impact on his mind (including being lied to about its actual pleasure, because many of the people in porn act). he goes continually back to that to re-expereince that high impact upon his mind which is felt as so s o real, and is felt as a sexual high. You are wealthy to get this info. I estimate over %95 of people are suffering silently like yourself, so tell everyone the true Nature of the Problem, point them to the solution manual & website, mentioned after my answer, and tell them to tell others. Nature of Problem: Mind manipulation: Various sexual presentations are filled with numerous very strong impactful mind altering manipulations. Having no chance to defend themselves, the viewer is delivered a powerful mental high, which is experienced as a powerful sexual high. The book reveals the manipulations, explaining how the mind works, and details how to free the mind from these cunning deceptions.

I think you have it analyzed correctly - he is addicted. While I am addicted to gambling (I know it and can't stop) so is he addicted. There is a pleasure drug known as dopamine (the pleasure drug) and I think we have too much of it - that is my analysis - not a Dr.'s. He will need help quitting just as I need help to quit. He will have to see that he needs help to quit - if not he has to hit bottom in your relationship to realize what he has done to himself and you. That is so sad - a beautiful willing partner - and at your age - should be doing everythng to please you and not himself. Other than that , I have no clue.

If he prefers porn you are either really lousy at sex or a dog. The only other possibility is he is a pervert.
