You don't say how long you have been together or if you are in love, but...
In true love, sex is never just about sex, because you can't remove love from the
equation. For some reason, you bf has stopped having loving sex with you in
exchange for porn and masturbation. You have every right to be concerned.
 
Welcome to JUB.

I'd be concerned. Porn addiction is real, but can only be addressed by the addict. In confronting him stick to behaviors rather than name calling. Good luck to you. Oh, another thing, don't make threats, like leaving, etc unless you are willing to follow through. I hope the situation impoves for you both.
 
Welcome to JUB, Darkside !

Maybe you should have posted that in the Coming out & Relationship sub-forum, as there it is a non flame sub forum within which you can have more in depth help or advices.

Take care !
 
Welcome to JUB!

I'd say it's something you should being up with him. Maybe see if you can watch porn together?

Another question is, is does he share the porn with you, has he offered to masturbate you and himself with his porn or does he just shut himself away to get his fullfilment or do it in the public part of the house.

If he's stopped doing it with you and prefer the Porn you need to find out why and try and sort that out, because otherwise it'll just be going downhill :(
 
Porn stars are usually great looking guys etc. His preference suggests that he no longer finds you attractive enough. It will not get better, in my opinion. You need to decide what you want to do based upon what his is doing, and not hope that he will change. You options are to leave him, or look for sex elsewhere, while continuing to live with him. But tell him your decision.
 
Yes, be concerned. Porn can be a fun activity that inspires new ideas in a relationship, helps people decide what they're into, and helps people communicate it to their partners. I've learned about what my guy likes and I've figured out how to try a few new things by watching porn and by watching the porn my guy is into. It can be part of a lively and healthy sex life. But it should never be a substitute for a sex life.

Ultimatums: I wouldn't tell him "It's porn or me." But "It's me and porn, or nothing at all" is actually fair.

He can watch some porn on his own. But it is fair for you to expect that he will watch at least half of the time with you, where you can touch each other and enjoy actually having another person in the room instead of being considered a distraction or a nuisance or a turn-off. And at least once or twice a week, you get to spend time with him alone with no porn.

If he can't handle that, the porn is not the problem, he is. If he can't handle that, he's not able to give you what a reasonable person should be able to expect in a relationship.

By the way, my guy and I did have to work on this issue somewhat to get it right, and things are now much better. Guys can be very shy about their desires; mine was. But it is a complete turn-off to feel like you're interrupting his "alone time." If he can't invite me to join in, there's a problem. Happily we seem to have sorted that out in my house.

The easiest thing to do is just tell him it turns you on to know what he's into and you want to see some of his hard drive ;) It doesn't have to be an "ultimatum" just an invitation.
 
You know how when you are watching porn together with him sitting between your legs and you are both naked and you have his dick in your hand, stroking him and a certain scene in the movie seems to makes his cock harder and bigger and he slowly starts to fuck your fist?? That makes me smile every time.
 
It's kind of hard to tell with so little context.
 
I'd be less concerned about his watching porn if you and he were more regular

but as TX says above .......... more info needed

I think I like my porn a bit too much also btw
 
maybe you find this interesting Start here for an overview of key concepts | Your Brain On Porn

i try to cut my addiction, first aim is 90 days without it, as it affects my relationship. by watching porn sooner or later you find, that your partner doesnt turn you on that much anymore. i had two weeks test period without porn and i could already see the effect, but its tough like any addiciton (and its compared to drug addiction) as i watched it after two weeks. read the article and maybe you should try living without porn if you are experiencing less attraction to your boyfriend.
